Bumpkins Rich Handsome Husband

Chapter 479 Conrad’s Scheme

After their merriment, Yvonne fell asleep while Conrad leaned against the bed’s headboard, looking out the window with deep thoughts in his mind.

Even though his plan was a success, he felt no satisfaction or exhilaration from it. In contrast, he felt even more troubled.

Time passed by, and the tired Yvonne woke up. When she saw that the man was smoking beside her, she reached out and held him by the waist. “Conrad, you’re not well. Why are you still smoking?”

“It’s fine.” Despite what he said, he had already put out the cigarette between his fingers in an ashtray. “Don’t be so worried about me.”

“How can I not worry about you…?”

As she leaned on him, she took in his unique smell, then immersed herself in bitter sadness.

She had even forgotten that it had only been two weeks since she had given birth and was still in her maternity period.

“You should be worried about yourself and the baby. It will be best if both of you are healthy and safe.”

There wasn’t any sweet talk, but just because Conrad said these in his ‘current condition’, it moved Yvonne so much that she felt a sting in her nose again.

Tears stung her eyes, and she pursed her cherry lips. “The baby… Have you met him yet?”

Since he knew which hospital the baby was born in and also had a copy of his proof of birth, could it be that he had also met the baby before? she wondered.

“Yeah, I did,” he admitted. “The baby is very adorable, and his eyes look just like yours.”

The best lies are the ones that were built upon the truth. If it weren’t because he didn’t have cancer, even he would be caught up in the lie and feel touched.

For Yvonne, just the thought that Conrad purposely stayed away from her because he had cancer and even planned their breakup filled her with guilt.
