Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 520 - 518: No Longer the Girl He Has Kept for a Year
Jiayi held Zaizai tightly and nodded, "Even if Zaizai is your child, we don’t necessarily have to go back with you. I have a home, a mom, and with you, I have no legal relationship, so why should I go back with you? Neither Zaizai nor I are your personal property."
More importantly, she was still in a state of shock.
Although she was not unfamiliar with him, if one were to say this man was her child’s father, that kind of intimate relationship, it wasn’t there yet.
Go back to Disheng?
Live with him in the coming days? She had never thought about it, nor dared to think about it.
No matter what had happened between them four years ago, whether or not there was any real affection, she had no intention of living with him at the moment.
And after listening to George and Auntie Li, she guessed that she likely hadn’t had any real feelings for him in the past either, right?
She was just a girl lost in a foreign place, whom he picked up and followed for a year!
If he were a good person, upon finding a missing girl, even if he couldn’t find her family, at the very least he should have reported it to the police, right?
But the fact that he privately kept a girl under twenty for a year, could he be a good person?
During that year, could it be that he treated her like a pet?
Thinking this, Jiayi felt a rush of warmth in her nose, mingled with some indignation and shame.
Even if she had depended on him, it must have been Stockholm-syndrome-esque hostage emotions!
Now he just crooks his finger, expecting her to run back to him with her child in tow?
She did not want that!
She now had a job, a profession, and was not incapable of supporting herself and Little Baozi. She wasn’t the helpless young girl from before who needed to rely on a man, right?
Not slapping this man, who made her pregnant before marriage, was already giving him face!
Once Jiayi made her rejection clear, the temperature in the hospital room dropped several degrees!
Everyone held their breath.
Huo Zhenyang’s expression turned frosty, yet he restrained his fury, leisurely lifting his hand in a signaling gesture.
Auntie Li, George, Ade, and several bodyguards understood the Boss’s intent and all withdrew, even closing the door behind them.
Within the ward, it suddenly became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
The man’s hawk-like eyes darkened, resembling the calm before a storm, as he took step by step towards the mother and child.
"Mommy," Zaizai sensing the odd atmosphere, became unusually nervous.
"Don’t be afraid." Although she told her son not to fear, Jiayi herself felt an inexplicable chill but quickly collected herself. What could he do, forcibly take her and Zaizai back to Disheng? Even if he did so, was he going to tie her and Zaizai up 24/7?
She was no longer the girl from four years ago that he had kept for a year!
Gathering her courage, Jiayi stepped back with Zaizai in her arms and lifted her small face, looking straight at him, trying to make her voice as steady as possible, "What do you want to do? Don’t mess around." 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
The man’s stature loomed closer, casting a large shadow, forcing her into a corner against the wall. He glanced at the Little Meatball in her arms, a hint of mockery flickering in his eyes, then leaned down close to her ear, purposely misinterpreting her words with an ambiguous tone, "Mess around? You’ve already had a child for me, I’ve messed with you long ago."
Jiayi’s face flushed with heat. This man, he has become even more shameless and dirty than before, back when they will in Disheng!
She instinctively held Zaizai tighter, not wanting her child to hear this man’s wicked words and have his young mind corrupted, "Zaizai is here, don’t talk nonsense!"
Huo Zhenyang glanced at Zaizai and a mysterious smile spread across his lips. He still didn’t let her off, leaning close to her ear, "Oh right, do you know how Zaizai was conceived?
Teasing her while making her remember their past together wasn’t bad at all.
Perhaps, starting from today, this would become his routine official business for the foreseeable future.
—To make her remember sooner that he is the man who dominates her life.
"Stop talking—" Jiayi’s nostrils flared as she tried to get past him and rush to the door, but before she could take a step, he had already caught her wrist!
His robust body leaned forward, suppressing both mother and child back, one hand sliding down to clasp her slender waist and pull her towards him, continuing with a low magnetic voice, "In an ancient castle in Nanga City of S Country, that’s where you had Zaizai. Your then-fiancé Ya Chen was waiting outside, yet you were with me inside the ancient castle ... Darling, speaking of which, you’re usually quite shy in bed, but that time, you were incredibly open."
Speaking of which, she must have gotten pregnant with Zaizai back then.
It was also the only time he hadn’t taken precautions, and who would have thought it would be a bullseye, conceiving Zaizai at once.
She covered her son’s ears, yet she couldn’t control her cheeks reddening like a splash of thin mud, and she couldn’t help but grind her teeth, incredulous that it had happened inside a castle...
This man was truly perverse!
"Enough... I don’t want to listen. Anyways, Zaizai and I won’t return to Disheng with you. It’s not like I don’t have a home, or a job, or can’t support myself; I won’t be caged by you like I was four years ago." She stood tall, biting her lip.
This feisty little wildcat spirit of hers remained just the same as four years ago. Even after becoming a mommy, she hadn’t changed.
Huo Zhenyang suddenly curved his lips into a smirk, really not wanting to look down on his woman, but he still couldn’t resist giving her a little knock:
"Oh, are you sure that your home and your job are things you obtained all on your own?"
Her heart skipped a beat, somewhat shaky. Green Island Garden was his property, and the designer position at Yundu had been recommended by him.
She couldn’t help but smile bitterly. After all that, was she still relying on him?
She still struggled, her defiant red lips pursed, "If it comes to it, Zaizai, my mom, and I can just move back to Fuyah Residential Area. And I’ll resign from my job at Yundu tomorrow. I have experience now; I won’t have trouble finding work. I can make a living anywhere."
"Oh? Is that so. I’d bet that aside from Disheng and Yundu, you won’t be able to find another place to live or work." The man’s hand was already pressing on her soft lower back and audaciously stroking in circles.
Four years apart, and absence had made the heart grow fonder. Now, everything about her, be it a frown or a smile, a rage or a pout, was fatally attractive to him; whenever he was near her, he couldn’t help but want to steal a few nibbles.
He didn’t want to threaten her, but to tame this little wildcat, he had no choice.
Jiayi raised her head and stared at the man, knowing full well what he meant. He would likely soon be the esteemed Mayor of Yunling City, and with a word from him, what couldn’t he achieve?
Yunling was the central hub of The Seven Coastal Cities, and even the leaders of the other six cities would have to bow down to him in the future—
Unless she and her family completely left the coastal region, how could they possibly escape his sphere of influence?
And how could she possibly escape?
Fearful thoughts crossed her mind; once this man learned that Zaizai was his flesh and blood, she and her son had likely already been marked as his property, and without his permission, they would no longer be able to step out of Yunling!
