Chapter 125 Deceiving Her
Isabella was stunned.
When Seb brought up that night, she was confused and suspicious.
That was because she thought Vanessa couldn't have told Seb about it.
But if Vanessa didn't tell Seb, then Seb's current behavior was inexplicable.
If Seb didn't know about that night, with his reserved nature, he wouldn't be so blatant in touching her now.
Seb's hand moved over Isabella's abdomen, gradually moving upward.
Isabella shivered in fear and said tremblingly, "Mr. Landon, what you're doing is unfair to Vanessa."
Seb frowned. "If she could send you to my bed, she should have expected this day."
Isabella was shocked.
'Vanessa sent me to Seb's bed?' Isabella thought.
"Isabella, it really was you that night!"
Isabella saw the emotional change in Seb, as if someone had cleared the fog. A smile gradually spread across his eyes, and his actions became more urgent and bold.
"It was that feeling." Seb's eyes darkened, even showing a hint of joy.
At that moment, Isabella suddenly realized that Seb was deceiving her from the beginning.
She struggled in Seb's arms. "Mr. Landon, there must be some misunderstanding. I don't know what you're talking about. Please let me go."
Seb pinned her hands above her head, his nose gently brushing against hers. "You still not admit it, Isabella?"
Isabella suddenly felt a tightness in her chest. Her mind was buzzing and she almost lost the ability to think.
Seb also stopped his hand, his dark eyes gleaming as he looked at her. "You're already reacting."
At this moment, Seb was completely different from his usual self. His eyes were filled with a storm, his face full of desire, and his hands were unrelenting.
Isabella was mortified and turned her face away, unable to look at him. She said, "Mr. Landon, that night was a misunderstanding. We didn't do anything. Please let me go."
Her chin tightened as Seb turned her face back.
"Isabella, you're really not good at lying."
Isabella's eyes widened, staring at the car roof.
A warm touch came to her lips. It was Seb's kiss, domineering and passionate.
"It hurts," Isabella murmured.
Seb let go of her, only to find her face pale as paper, with beads of sweat on her forehead.
Isabella clutched her stomach with a painful expression.
Seb immediately picked her up, holding her in his arms.
He instructed the driver to go to the hospital while tidying Isabella's clothes and hair.
Seb's movements were extremely gentle. Isabella leaned against him, feeling unwell but strangely reassured.
After tidying her clothes, Seb's hand rested on her lower abdomen again.
"Does it hurt a lot?" Seb's voice came from above.
Isabella bit her lip, not speaking.
Seb held her tighter and said, "Sorry, I got too excited."
Isabella's heart raced.
'Seb knew it was me that night, so he was excited.
'If he knows the child is his, would he be even more excited?' Isabella thought.
Isabella's mind was filled with thoughts. Seb's palm pressed tightly against her lower abdomen, his expression serious.
"Mr. Landon, what are you doing?" Isabella couldn't help but ask.
Seb answered earnestly, "Telling him to behave well."
'He could be so childish,' Isabella thought.
Isabella looked up, meeting Seb's deep, unfathomable eyes.
"What's wrong?" Seb's concern was written all over his face. "Does it hurt badly?"
Isabella shook her head and blushed, saying, "Mr. Landon, can you put me down first?"
"No!" Seb refused without thinking. "You can't move now. I'll carry you to see the doctor when we get to the hospital."
Besides, he had finally gotten to hold her, and he was reluctant to let go.
He had imagined this scene many times.
Isabella couldn't persuade Seb. And with her stomach aching, she didn't have the energy to argue with him.
So, she went along with Seb's wishes, leaning against him with peace of mind.
At the hospital, Seb carried her to see Jessica.
After the examination, Jessica sternly asked Seb, "Didn't I tell you last time, no strenuous activity!"
Seb pondered for a moment and asked seriously, "Does kissing count as strenuous?"
Fortunately, the baby was fine.
Jessica said that Isabella's discomfort was likely due to her being too nervous and excited.
"Nervous and excited?" Seb looked at Isabella thoughtfully.
Isabella's face remained flushed. "I didn't feel excited."
Before she finished speaking, Seb took her wrist.
Seb intended to pull her over, but thinking of the baby, he was much gentler. So he sat closer with her.
"Let's talk."
Isabella didn't know what Seb wanted to talk about.
He probably wanted to talk about that night.
So before he could speak, Isabella took the initiative. "Mr. Landon, that night was an accident. I didn't take it seriously, so please don't take it to heart either."
Seb looked at her and said, "You seem to be quite carefree."
'It's not that I'm carefree.
'I didn't expect that night to happen either,' Isabella thought.
Besides, Seb had a fiancée. She didn't want to be the one to ruin someone's marriage, so she tried hard to distance herself from him.
But for some reason, the more she tried to distance herself, the more she got involved.
After a moment of silence, Seb asked, "Are you planning to marry Matthew?"
Isabella was stunned for a moment and shook her head.
His expression softened slightly. " You still can't let him go?"
Isabella still shook her head.
Her two denials cleared the gloom from Seb's face.
He reached out, pulling her onto his lap.
Isabella tried to get down, but Seb held her waist.
"Isabella, be with me?"
Isabella looked at Seb, her mind blank.
Seb tightened his arm and continued, "Leave the Landon family. I'll repay the forty thousand dollars for you."
Isabella was surprised. "You know everything?"
After asking, she felt it was redundant.
Jack saw her that night. For people like them, it was not difficult to inquire about something at the casino.
If Jack knew it, then Seb would know too.
"I know everything about you."
Isabella was silent.
She didn't believe Seb's words.
For example, Seb didn't know about the baby.
Seb held Isabella from the side. He liked her scent, faint but always making him feel warm inside. It was as if his wandering heart had finally found a peaceful and gentle harbor.
Seb knew Isabella was the woman he wanted.
"Isabella, give me a straightforward answer!" He buried his head in her neck, his breath heating Isabella's skin.
Isabella looked out the window, her eyes a bit dazed.
Undoubtedly, at this moment, she was a bit moved.
She had given her body to Seb, and the baby in her belly was also Seb's.
If she talked it out with Seb, they might really have a good outcome.
Isabella was on the verge of a response when her phone rang.
