I Am the Sweetheart of Mr. CEO-Chapter 709 - 707: Pregnant?! (31)

Kris Cooper had only been shut in his room for a night, and by the next morning, he left the house, as tidy as ever.

As anxious parents, Bailey Hansen and Christopher Cooper followed him. They saw him buy breakfast at a restaurant, and then some fruit from a grocery store.

The two followed him to the jail, where they witnessed him carefully wash and pack the fruit into a box, which, along with the breakfast, he handed to the Staff.

"Could you please deliver this to my wife? Also, tell her, if she doesn’t eat, I won’t eat either!"

The Staff gave him a glance, accepted the items, and went inside.

In the ward, Vera Wave hadn’t slept much that night, only dozing off a bit towards dawn. Now completely awake, she had freshened up and was sitting on the bed, lost in thought.

She didn’t even turn to look when she heard the Staff come in.

It was only when the Staff put a paper bag on her table that she raised an eyebrow quizzically at him.

"What’s this?"

"Mr. Cooper sent it. He also told me to relay a message: If you don’t eat, he won’t either."

Vera opened her mouth but was lost for words.

She thought that he would be furious with her, never wanting to deal with her again. Yet, to her surprise, after just one night, he had gone back to his usual routine.

Her gaze fell onto the food on the table and the washed fruits. She frowned helplessly, then clenched her jaw.

"Could you take this out, please? Tell him I have food here. I won’t eat his food!"

The Staff reluctantly took the items back out, conveying her message verbatim.

Kris didn’t get angry or upset. He just threw the items away and got back in his car to drive off to a meeting with Ashton.

At noon, he came back with her favorite dish, red wine steak.

Vera still refused to eat, insisting that it be returned untouched. He threw it away and left once more. It was the same in the evening and again the next morning.

After 10 o’clock, the Staff once again entered Vera’s cell.

"A Mr. Tommy Taylor would like to see you."

Tommy Taylor? Vera raised an eyebrow. "No."

"He said, if you refuse to see him, he asked me to tell you. Mr. Cooper has not eaten for two days."

Vera clenched her fists. Both frustrated and hurting, she couldn’t help but curse out loud.

"That bastard!"

Two hours later, Kris once again delivered food.

This time, the Staff, holding the paper bag, simply asked, "Should I take it back again?"

Vera hesitated for a good while, then finally got up. She took the food, arranged each dish carefully on the table, and then began to stuff large mouthfuls into her mouth.

Fifteen minutes later, the Staff returned, with only an empty insulated box in hand.

"Miss Wave says, she is full."

Accepting the insulated box, Kris’s lips gently curled upwards.

He knew it! She couldn’t bear it!

"Could you please tell her that tonight, I’ll personally cook steak for her."

The Staff had no choice but to go back and relay the message to Vera.

After hearing the message, Vera angrily threw the pillow she was holding against the wall.

"Kris Cooper, let’s see if you can keep it up for a year and a half!"

The days seemed to revert to what they used to be, with him delivering food three times a day, and then going back to work.

「A few days later.」

All the paperwork was sorted, and Vera was transferred from the jail to a women’s prison in the outskirts of the city.

As she sat in the police car, she leaned against the car body, exhaling deeply.

This prison was quite far from the city. Even if he drove, it would take him two to three hours each way. Surely, he would give up this time.
