Alexander Kingsley had a feeling of impending doom.
Eva Nightingale asked to borrow his coat, and he felt as if he already knew how he was going to die, and how the Crown Prince would deal with him!
Lucas Knight’s face also darkened slightly. He spread his arms, signaling her to come sit on his lap.
His icy thin lips parted as he spoke, "Woman, come here obediently."
His voice was very pleasant and soothing.
Yet it carried a hint of bloodthirsty coldness.
Eva Nightingale settled back onto his lap, wrapping her arms around Lucas Knight’s neck, seemingly explaining, "Honey, I have a friend who happens to be at Nightfall Palace. She doesn’t have a coat, so I’m taking the Admiral’s jacket for her to wear, not for myself."
Since Carla Carr and Alexander Kingsley are on good terms, borrowing a coat shouldn’t be a big deal, right...
More than that, Eva Nightingale just wanted to give Carla Carr and Alexander Kingsley more opportunities to meet.
More encounters could only be beneficial.
After borrowing his coat, of course, Carla Carr would return it herself,
Lucas Knight’s face remained cold, "Kiss me."
It was a command, not a negotiation.
Commanding Eva Nightingale to kiss his lips.
After a while, she finally coaxed the man, secured his permission, and left the sovereign reserved box with the coat.
Harry North escorted Eva Nightingale to find Carla Carr.
Before leaving, Harry North said, "Miss Nightingale, the Crown Prince won’t be going back in the next couple of days."
After speaking, Harry North was ready to leave.
Eva Nightingale knew they were likely going to party all night.
She was different; being pregnant, she needed to go back and rest early.
Eva Nightingale and Carla Carr, each wearing a man’s coat, walked out of Nightfall Palace.
The two returned together to Villa No. 8.
Carla Carr, smelling of alcohol, soaked in the bathtub, asked Eva Nightingale, "Olivia! Do you think there’s any chance between me and the Admiral?"
Alexander Kingsley was so good to her.
But the better he was, the more inferior she felt.
Especially since people say that those who appear strong on the outside are often fragile inside, Carla Carr was just that... And, she also had a deep inferiority complex.
Her status was that of an illegitimate daughter.
Her status... was not welcomed by anyone.
Alexander Kingsley was a distinguished military leader, if he married her, wouldn’t that ruin his reputation?
People always said how impressive the Admiral is...
Moreover, Carla Carr had heard that Alexander Kingsley was against marriage. If that were true, she really didn’t know how to face it.
Last time, she secretly went to the hospital to buy pregnancy-preventing pills, and just as she was about to take them, Lieutenant Li walked in, scaring her so much that she dropped the pills on the floor... And ended up having to lie that they were vitamins.
"Olivia, things really did happen between us! And truthfully, I feel quite dependent on him, I like his scent, I like being pampered by him... but I’m also afraid..."
"If— I mean if—if I get pregnant, what should I do..."
"...Pregnant?" Speaking of which, Eva Nightingale suddenly remembered, "I’m already pregnant."
She hadn’t told Carla Carr about the pregnancy before.
Besides the housekeeper Auntie Fang, she had only told Carla Carr now.
Eva Nightingale hadn’t expected to become pregnant so soon.
To be honest, Carla Carr had changed a lot lately, perhaps due to Alexander Kingsley?
"Lola, if you don’t want to get pregnant, just be careful yourself."
Eva Nightingale didn’t agree with them breaking up, because she felt that Carla Carr and Alexander Kingsley were a good match.
