Chapter 39 Robert's Visit

Elisa seemed to recall something and immediately covered her mouth with both hands.
What does he want to do? Is he going to force a kiss on me again?
When Simon saw her reaction, he paused for a moment before throwing her onto the sofa.
With a cold snort, "Hillary, do you think I would do anything to you?"
"How should I know if you might suddenly rape me?" Elisa muttered softly, keeping her distance from him.
Simon gave her a glare and then threw a blanket at her. "You sleep on the sofa tonight and don't disturb me."
It was just a single-person sofa that Elisa couldn't even lie down comfortably in.
"Simon, how could you let a pregnant woman sleep on the sofa!" Elisa grumbled discontentedly while holding the blanket.
"If you can conceive an Iverson family child, then I'll let you sleep in bed," Simon said coldly before ignoring her completely.
So she had no choice but to curl up like a cat on this small sofa and make do for the night. But she did something strange in her dream - she lay on the big bed in their bedroom surrounded by fragrant scents...
"Ding Dong--"
The morning doorbell woke Elisa up. She sat up groggily and found herself really sleeping in bed.
Yesterday evening, she clearly slept on the sofa...
Elisa looked around at Simon's bedroom layout; it was his bed after all!
Did she climb into his bed last night?
If so, Simon would definitely have kicked her out! Or did Simon carry her over here himself?
Elisa didn't dare imagine any more. She got dressed quickly and went downstairs when she heard someone ringing the doorbell earlier.
"Mr. Brown? Mr. Iverson will be here soon. Please have some tea while waiting." The voice of one of their servants came from downstairs.
Elisa couldn't have misheard it; that was Robert's voice!
Excitedly, she ran down the stairs and saw Robert sitting on the sofa in a suit.
The morning sun shone gently on his shoulders as if he were enveloped in a hazy light.
"Robert!" Elisa exclaimed as she ran towards him. "What are you doing here?"
"I'm here to negotiate on behalf of my client," Robert replied with surprise upon seeing her. "And what about you, Elisa? What brings you here?"
Caught off guard by his question, Elisa scratched her head. "I...this is where I live..."
Simon only found out today that the lawyer coming to negotiate was none other than Elisa's Robert.
Seeing them both sitting together chatting happily made Simon furious - were they flirting right under his nose?
"Mr. Brown?" Suppressing his anger, Simon sat opposite Robert.
When he heard Simon's voice, Robert looked up and couldn't help but feel familiar with him for some reason.
Then he instinctively glanced at Elisa; why were these two people appearing together in one house?
Feeling Robert's gaze, Elisa dared not look up.
Putting aside his confusion, Robert stood up and shook hands with Simon.
"Pleased to meet you, Mr.Iverson," said Robert politely while looking directly at Simon before turning back to face Elisa again."Mrs.Iverson, wouldn't you come over and greet our guest?"
