Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 248

Chapter 248 I Miss You

In the end, Rowan was sent to the hospital that night.

The doctor took his temperature and found it was over 38 degrees Celsius. But Rowan was too young, so the doctor refused to give him an injection. Instead, he chose a physical cooling method, which was similar to the way the maternity matron did in the house before. Rowan was kept under observation.

After a whole night, the temperature dropped a little. When they got home, Rowan finally fell asleep.

Yuliana sat by the crib, exhausted.

When she first found out she was pregnant, she even thought about raising her child by herself. Until then, she realized that her thoughts were too naive.

Even with Christopher, Hailey, and the maternity matron, Kylie, by her side, it was still a torment. If she were alone, she wouldn’t even know what to do in the middle of the night.

In the next few days, Rowan’s fever subsided, but there were still some cold symptoms.

Yuliana hasn’t had a good night’s sleep. Whenever Rowan made a slight noise at night, she would wake up to check on him so that she could have some peace of mind.

When she woke up, Christopher also woke up. But Christopher still had work to do during the day, so Yuliana put a bed in the nursery for fear of disturbing his sleep. When Rowan made a lot of noise, she would stay in the nursery.

Christopher had been busy lately.

On one hand, due to the wrong decision-making, the investment project lost a lot of money, and the internal operation of Glory Corporation had some problems, which Christopher would have to deal with in person. On the other hand, Layla went to Romdale, and Kendrick recently went to Alendor to investigate an important project. Some matters at the headquarters of Solace Corporation were handed over to Christopher. Christopher would go out early in the morning and come back late at night. It was almost impossible for them to be alone except at night.

It was already wee hours when Christopher returned home that night.

Yuliana just coaxed Rowan to sleep. When she heard the noise, she came out of the nursery and saw Christopher changing his shoes at the door. His coat was slung over his wrist.

She walked over and whispered, “You’re back?”

A pungent smell of alcohol wafted into her nose. Yuliana assumed that he had drunk a lot.

Christopher nodded and handed the coat to Yuliana. Looking at the nursery, he asked, “Is Rowan asleep?” Yuliana nodded. “Yes, just recently.”

Looking at dark circles beneath her eyes, Christopher frowned and said, “Take a good rest tonight. Kylie is here to take care of our son if he cries. If she can’t settle him down, I’ll get up and do it.”

In the past few days, Yuliana hadn’t had a good night’s sleep. As soon as she lay down to rest, Rowan would

start to cry.

There were times when Rowan didn’t cry. But Yuliana would wake up suddenly and run to the nursery in a daze. She was probably hit with a nervous breakdown.

Yuliana nodded, but she didn’t take his words seriously. “Do you want something to eat?”

“No.”

After changing his shoes, Christopher unbuttoned his shirt and went back to his bedroom with Yuliana in his

arms.

Christopher went to take a shower. Yuliana made him a cup of warm honey water and sat on the couch in the room, waiting for him to come out.

Probably because of the lack of sleep recently, her eyelids dropped soon after she sat. But she didn’t sleep well. When she heard the bathroom door open, she woke up.

Yuliana looked in the direction of the bathroom in a daze. She got up too suddenly and almost fell down. Fortunately, she leaned on the armrest of the couch in time to stabilize her body. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Seeing that she was in a bad condition, Christopher hurried over. He helped her sit down and touched her forehead. “Are you feeling unwell?”

Yuliana closed her eyes for a few seconds and said, “It’s okay. Maybe it’s because I haven’t gotten enough rest recently I was a little dizzy just now.”

Hearing that, Christopher didn’t say anything. He picked Yuliana up and put her on the bed, “Sleep when you’re sleepy. Don’t wait for me.”

Yuliana didn’t say anything. She just put her hand around his neck and nuzzled against his neck like a kitten. “What’s the matter?”

Christopher was stunned and soon noticed that Yuliana was in a bad mood.

Yuliana shook her head gently and kissed Christopher’s neck. Then she raised her head to kiss Christopher’s chin, lips, and tip of his nose. After that, she moved back a little. Their foreheads touched each other, and their eyes met.

The atmosphere seemed to be getting heated up.

Christopher slid his fingers down from her neck to her back. He pressed her joints along the way and said in a hoarse voice, “Ana, you need to rest.”

Sensing his movements, Yuliana couldn’t help shuddering. She didn’t reply to him but took the initiative to kiss his thin lips. Instead of just pecking him, she kissed him the way he kissed her before.

She said after a while, “Christopher, I miss you.”

From the moment she saw him standing at the door and changing his shoes, she suddenly felt that she hadn’t seen Christopher for a long time. A kind of longing kindled in her heart for no reason.

Christopher took a deep breath and kissed her without saying anything else.

Yuliana took the initiative. She got up from the bed and sat on him. Holding his neck, she responded passionately to his kiss.

Suddenly, the ringing of a phone came through.

Yuliana was stunned. She paused what she was doing.

Christopher, as if he hadn’t heard it, removed the shoulder straps of her undershirt with his fingers. He continued moving down her neck.

Yuliana pushed him. “Phone.”

His lust was aroused; there was no time for phone calls.

The next second, she was pressed face down on the bed.

Yuliana’s ears gradually blocked the ringtone of the phone as she got immersed in the amorous moment.

After their erotic interaction, Christopher carried Yuliana to take a shower.

Yuliana was so tired that she couldn’t open her eyes. She lay on the bed, and Christopher kissed the back of her shoulder. Yuliana’s rest was disturbed by that, so she grunted with dissatisfaction.

Christopher laughed and then got up to check the previous call.

Instantly, his eyes darkened.

He glanced at Yuliana, who was sleeping on the bed. He then left the room and shut the door before dialing that number.

It took a while for the person on the other side of the phone to answer the call. “Hello?” Annabelle’s raspy voice came through. She sounded panicked.

Christopher’s eyes paused. “What’s wrong?”

Annabelle took a deep breath and shook her head. “Nothing. It’s settled now.”

Christopher didn’t believe her at all. “Nothing? And you called me in the middle of the night? What’s going on?” he asked coldly.

Annabelle was confused and didn’t know what to say. After a while, she said with uncertainty, “I feel like someone entered my house.”

Christopher frowned. “What do you mean by that?”

Annabelle suddenly shouted, “I don’t know!”

Christopher rubbed the spot in between his eyebrows and didn’t speak for a long time. He only heard the anxious and heavy breathing on the other side of the line.

After a while, he said, “Wait, I’ll go and have a look.”

After hanging up the phone, Christopher went back to the room and changed his clothes.

When he walked out, Yuliana seemed to notice something. She woke up and saw him change his clothes. She frowned. “Are you going out?”

Christopher paused. He walked to the bed and kissed her on the lips. “Something happened to Annabelle. I’ll go and have a look.”

Hearing that, Yuliana, who was half asleep, suddenly became clear-minded. She stared at Christopher for a while and asked, “Can’t you go tomorrow?”

Christopher didn’t say anything
