Chapter 512 William and Hayden
"By the way, Finn, what were you and Hayden just talking about?" Sophia picked up her coffee again, blew on it, and handed it to Finn with a beaming smile.
Finn took the coffee and took a sip, saying, "Hayden wants to go abroad to continue studying."
"Oh really?" Sophia listened and a smile of joy appeared on her face. She looked at Hayden and continued, "It turns out Nikolai also wants to study abroad. Otherwise, the gap between him and Hayden would be too big in the future. How about you two go together, so you can take care of each other? Raymond and I would feel relieved. What do you think, Hayden?"
Going together with Nikolai.
Sophia's intentions were obvious!
Unfortunately, she couldn't reveal it now.
Without any change in her facial expression, Hayden smiled and said, "Sure, since Nikolai has this kind of enthusiasm, I can't reject him and dampen his spirits."
"Really, Hayden? You agreed?" Sophia couldn't believe her eyes as she looked at Hayden.
"Well, it's nice to have someone to take care of each other." Hayden nodded with a slight smile and then looked at Finn again. "Raymond, is that okay?"
As long as they left the sights of Finn and Sophia, they could figure out the rest when they were abroad.
After taking a sip of coffee and putting it down, Finn nodded and said, "Since you are going with Nikolai, then go. I will arrange everything at Sherlock Valley Academy tomorrow."
"Great, thank you, Raymond." Hayden happily agreed and stood up. "You and Auntie should rest early. I'll go back to my room first."
"Okay! I will have some snacks brought to your room later."
"Thank you." Hayden smiled before turning around and returning to the room.
‘Click!’ "Sis, you're back to class." Just as she stepped into the room, Jocelyn, without knocking, entered and spoke.
Hayden, who was about to take off her clothes to take a shower, was startled by the sound of the door opening. She quickly pulled her top back down and turned her head to see who it was.
Relieved to see that it was Jocelyn who came in, Hayden let out a sigh of relief.
"Yeah." Hayden smiled and waved at Jocelyn, who had already taken a shower and was wearing pajamas. "Come here, let your sister give you a hug."
Only in front of her sister Jocelyn could she truly relax.
Jocelyn closed the door and immediately rushed into Hayden's arms, hugging her tightly.
"Sis, is Raymond deliberately making things difficult for you at the company and giving you a lot of tasks to do?" Jocelyn asked her in a muffled voice while hugging Hayden.
"No, it was my own desire to do things to the best of my ability," Hayden embraced Jocelyn and then released her, looking at her as he said, "Jocelyn, remember, he will always be our biological father, as long as we don't do anything wrong, he won't do anything to us."
Jocelyn nodded, "Sis, I understand. No matter what, we have to act obedient and sensible in front of Raymond and Sophia, always accommodating Daniel, and keeping Daniel happy. We must not provoke Raymond."
"Yeah, that's right." Hayden nodded in relief, gently stroking Jocelyn's long hair, and continued, "Jocelyn, I might have to go abroad for a while. During my absence, you have to be more discreet and patient, don't show any malice."
"Sis, why are you going abroad again?" Jocelyn said, unwilling to part.
"To study." Hayden lovingly caressed her cheek, looking at her, and said, "What you learn is yours, and it will be useful in the future. You have to study hard, understand?"
Looking at her, Jocelyn pouted reluctantly, but she also knew that even if she resisted, she couldn't change Hayden's decision. She could only hold her hand and plead, "Sis, can I sleep with you tonight?"
Hayden shook her head, "You're a big girl now, you have to be independent."
It's not that she didn't want Jocelyn to sleep with her. In the past, Jocelyn often slept with her, especially in the two years after her mother passed away, Jocelyn always slept with her.
But now, she had a little one in her belly.
First, she worried that Jocelyn would move around in her sleep and kick her belly.
Second, she didn't want Jocelyn to know about her pregnancy, because it would be dangerous for her if Jocelyn found out.
"It's been so long since I've slept with you!" Jocelyn held her hand and acted coquettishly.
"I know, it's because you're growing up!" Hayden smiled, gently stroking her cheek and coaxing her, "Be good and go back to your own room to sleep. I still have a few documents to read after I finish showering."
"Oh, okay!" Since Hayden said so, Jocelyn reluctantly let go of her hand, "Goodnight, sis."
Hayden nodded, "Goodnight."
Watching Jocelyn leave, Hayden then went to the bathroom.
After entering the bathroom, Hayden locked the door, took off her clothes, and stood in front of the wash basin, placing a hand on her lower abdomen, and looking at herself in the mirror.
Her child in her belly was already over three months old, and her belly was starting to show. If she wore tight clothes, some traces would be visible.
So, she had to leave as soon as possible. Within a month, she had to go. She wasn't worried as long as she could leave first, even with Nikolai around.
Once she was overseas, she would find a way to make Nikolai disappear from her side, or perhaps she would disappear herself.
"Baby, don't be afraid. Mommy will protect you, for sure."
The next day, during the weekend.
The pregnant woman was sleepy. She knew she had been busy with work lately, so no one bothered her. Hayden slept until nearly nine o'clock in the morning.
When she went downstairs after washing up, she didn't see Finn, nor did she see Jocelyn and Daniel. Instead, she saw Nikolai, who was grinning at her.
"Hayden, you're up. How did you sleep last night?" Seeing Hayden coming downstairs, Nikolai immediately went over and asked with a pleasing smile on his face.
"Um, I slept well." Hayden smiled slightly at Nikolai and nodded.
At this moment, she certainly couldn't show any disgust toward Nikolai.
Not only should she not show any disgust, but she also had to be especially enthusiastic.
"Miss, you're up. What would you like to eat for breakfast?" At this time, the butler came over and respectfully asked Hayden.
Hayden thought for a moment and ordered several types of breakfast that she wanted to eat.
"Very well, Miss. Please wait a moment. I'll immediately have the kitchen prepare it." The butler nodded and was about to turn around to instruct the kitchen.
"Oh, by the way, Cassius, where are Raymond and Aunt Sophia?" Hayden asked, remembering something.
"Hayden, your uncle accompanied your aunt for a shopping trip. Aunt said she wanted to take a walk and have another baby with Daniel." Nikolai answered with a smile before the butler could respond.
Having another baby with Daniel?
Hayden sneered inwardly, but there was no change in her expression.
However, when it came to the matter of Finn having another son, she suddenly became curious and even puzzled.
She clearly remembered that after her mother gave birth to Jocelyn, she found a traditional Chinese medicine doctor to regulate her body in the hope of having another son for Finn. But for the next seven to eight years, her mother's belly remained still.
Even before her suicide, she was not able to conceive another child for Finn.
If her mother couldn't conceive, that was one thing.
But why hadn't Sophia been pregnant again in the past ten years?
Strange, did Sophia's body also have problems?
"Okay, I understand," Hayden thought for a moment, smiled, and asked, "And what about Jocelyn and Daniel?"
"Miss is attending a sculpture class, and Liam is playing in the garden," the butler replied.
Hayden nodded, "Alright, you can go now."
The butler nodded and respectfully turned away.
"Hayden, it's the weekend today, do you have any plans?" Nikolai looked at Hayden with a smile, and as she continued walking downstairs, he reached out his hand to assist her.
Unusually, Hayden didn't feel repulsed or refuse, but instead reached out and held Nikolai's hand.
When Hayden's hand touched his, Nikolai's eyes lit up with excitement, almost trembling.
"Not really," holding Nikolai's hand, Hayden walked toward the steps and glanced at him, smiling, "Do you have any good plans?"
Looking at her, Nikolai was filled with excitement.
Was Hayden agreeing to go out with him?
"Well, after you have breakfast, I'll take you to a great place that you’re sure to enjoy," Nikolai said, almost incoherently, filled with excitement.
"Sure!" Hayden smiled and readily agreed, "It just so happens that I haven't properly relaxed in a long time."
Nikolai looked at her with shining eyes and patted his chest, "Hayden, trust me, I'll make sure you have a great time."
Hayden smiled and didn't say anything more. She turned and walked straight toward the direction of the dining hall.
While she had breakfast, Nikolai sat across from her and enthusiastically told her about the fun adventures he had with his group of friends.
Hayden ate her breakfast while showing great interest, nodding along, and asking Nikolai a few questions here and there.
Hayden's newfound enthusiasm amazed Nikolai so much that he couldn't even think straight.
Sophia had instructed him not to be too gentle with Hayden, and when the time was right, to use force and turn her into his woman, so that their marriage would naturally follow.
"I'm full now, wait for me a moment, I'll go upstairs and change my clothes." After finishing breakfast, Hayden elegantly wiped the corners of her mouth and hands with a hot towel. She stood up, turned around, slowly left the dining hall, and went upstairs.
Nikolai looked at Hayden and felt that every move she made was enticing him, making him drool with desire. Thinking that Hayden would eventually belong to him, he wanted to engage in a sexual relationship with her earlier so that they could get married sooner. Nikolai's lustful heart was uncontrollable. As he watched Hayden go upstairs and disappear in the hallway, he followed her up.
"Why is this guy, Liam, going upstairs?" The housekeeper saw Nikolai staring at Hayden with a lecherous expression and followed suit. He looked worriedly at the manager and asked.
"Don't meddle!" Immediately, the manager glared at the housekeeper warningly. "Have you forgotten Madam's instructions?"
Looking at the manager, the housekeeper shrank his neck in fear and turned away.
Yes, Sophia had given instructions. When she and Finn were not at home today, no matter what happened upstairs, they were not allowed to go up or inquire.
Upstairs, after Hayden returned to her room, she went directly to the walk-in closet to change her clothes.
As she took off her loose sweatshirt, she saw her slightly bigger belly in the mirror. Her hand couldn't help but move up to gently touch her abdomen. In her mind, scenes of entanglement and passion with William in the apartment in Southern a few months ago inexplicably emerged.
As she remembered those scenes, her heartbeat couldn't help but accelerate, and her breathing became erratic.
At this moment, due to her distraction, she completely failed to notice that her bedroom door was gently pushed open. Someone tiptoed in, stealthily walking toward her walk-in closet.
Nikolai stood at the threshold of the walk-in closet, his mind a maelstrom of conflicting emotions. Suddenly, it felt as if an explosion reverberated through his skull, scattering his thoughts like shrapnel. In the deafening silence that followed, there remained only one persistent, primal urge echoing in his consciousness: the overwhelming desire to claim Hayden as his own, to forge a bond that transcended mere physicality.
Thinking so, Nikolai didn't care about anything else. After calling out "Hayden," he directly took off his clothes and pounced on Hayden.
Hearing the sound, Hayden suddenly came back to her senses and turned her head to look. When she saw Nikolai, who was undressing and pouncing toward her like a vicious wolf, Hayden was shocked. Almost instinctively, she grabbed the sweatshirt she had just taken off and covered her chest and stomach while retreating uncontrollably. "Nikolai, what are you doing?"
In the grip of a consuming frenzy, Nikolai had relinquished all semblance of rationality, his sanity drowned in the surging tide of primal urges. Oblivious to Hayden's panicked cries, he surged forward, shedding his garments in a frenetic blur of motion. His movements were swift, driven by an insatiable hunger that knew no restraint, as he closed the distance with an urgency bordering on desperation.
"Ah! Nikolai," Hayden screamed in fright as Nikolai came close. He started punching and kicking him, saying, "Nikolai, are you crazy? Get away! Quickly, get away!"
"Hayden, my dear Hayden, just be with me. I have loved you for a very long time," Nikolai couldn't hear anything at the moment. While acting recklessly on Hayden's body, he continued, "Don't worry, I will treat you well in the future. With you, I will never touch another woman again. I only want you, just you."
"Ah! Nikolai, you idiot, bastard, get away, just get away!" Hayden screamed, struggling and resisting desperately.
But it was useless. Nikolai was really like a wild boar, tall and strong, weighing at least 180 pounds. He pinned Hayden down, and she couldn't even push him away, let alone resist, especially because he was using brute force.
