Eating the familiar midnight snack, Yolande looked at Baron and pursed her lips. After hesitating for a
long time, she finally said, "thank you..."
Baron put down the bowl in his hand and looked at Yolande, which made her a little embarrassed. She
lowered her head and went to eat the midnight snack.
"There are reasons for her to grow up like this."
"What?"
Hearing what he said, Yolande was confused and stunned. "What do you mean?"
Leaning against the sofa lazily, Baron said slowly, "with Alex around, you will gain weight soon."
"Fatten me up?" After eating the midnight snack, Yolande pursed her lips and said, "why do you keep
fat? I still want to lose weight. "
"It doesn't hurt to hold a fat woman." Baron said without looking up.
"Are you holding me?" Yolande repeated it, and her face flushed. She thought to herself, 'you only
hugged me once, and it was a one night stand. Can you still remember me so clearly?'
Baron nodded seriously, "yes."
Yolande was rendered speechless. Looking at the serious look on Baron's face, she hesitated for a
while and changed the topic. "Don't think that I will forgive you because you have arranged Alex."
"Do I need your forgiveness?" He rolled his eyes and glanced at Yolande.
"You don't believe me," said Yolande angrily, waiting for Baron, "It doesn't matter if you don't believe
me. Why don't you let me explain to them..."
"Can you made it clear?" Baron interrupted Yolande and hit the nail on the head.
"I..."
Yolande opened her mouth but couldn't answer. She pursed her lips. What she had thought in the car
just now made her feel scared. Moreover, even if she didn't do anything, Jennifer still believed in her
daughter, an outsider, which was obvious.
"All right." Yolande sighed and lowered her eyes. These were not the most sad things. She said slowly,
"what about you? Do you believe me? "
Time seemed to stand still, and the whole world seemed to fall into deathly silence.
Yolande raised her head slowly and looked at Baron. He was expressionless and there was no emotion
in his eyes. She didn't know what he was thinking, and she didn't want to know either. She had got the
answer. Obviously, it was not what she wanted.
Yolande stood up slowly, turned around and went upstairs. Yolande, like a kitten, went back to her
bedroom without making any noise and was about to close the door gently. Only then did she find that
Baron was standing at the stairway, leaning against the railing and looking at her.
"Have a good rest. Alex will prepare your favorite breakfast."
Yolande tried to smile, but it was uglier than crying. When she wanted to speak, she found that her
voice was a little choked. She could only nod, and then slowly closed the door.
"Yolande."
Before the door was completely closed, Baron's voice came through. His voice was very low, but the
door seemed to tremble and stop. Yolande's little face was particularly clear in the narrow crack of the
door. She looked down at her toes.
"Good night."
Baron uttered only two simple words. The door was closed gently, and the inner and outer worlds were
separated into two worlds.
Looking at the closed door, Baron pursed his lips into a straight line, and his eyes were as deep as a
pool of water, unfathomable. He held the hands on the railing tightly until his knuckles turned pale.
Then he slowly turned around and went back to his room.
Inside the door, Yolande leaned against the door, her eyes filled with tears again. Just now when he
called her name, she thought he would give her a satisfactory answer, but she did not expect that it
was just "good night".
It turned out that he still didn't believe her. What's more, she cared so much about his trust!
He took away the Mu Mansion. She should hate him to the core.
However, the worship of her mother and grandfather, the celebration of her birthday, the unexpected
scene on the rooftop, and the necklace were still on her neck. He doted on her, but unfortunately, he
only doted on her. nothing more!
There was not even the most basic trust between them!
Tears finally welled up in her eyes. Yolande leaned against the door and slowly slid down. She held her
shoulders and buried her head between her knees. She was really stupid and naive!
They were a family, and she was just an outsider. Even for Baron, marrying her was only because the
Mu Mansion!
Her heart was as painful as a knife. It took her a long time to slowly stand up, but she just moved
because she had maintained a posture for too long. She was stiff and fell to the ground with a bang.
"Well..."
Yolande cried out in a low voice. Her forehead hit the sofa, which was so painful that stars were shining
in front of her eyes. Her little face was distorted. She rubbed her forehead and before she could sit up,
she heard the door open and her strong arm pulled her up.
"Who..."
When Yolande was about to shout, the light was on. The man in front of her made her swallow back
what she was about to say. Baron?
"If you don't turn on the light, it's normal to fall down." Baron pressed Yolande on the sofa and frowned
at the wound on her forehead.
"I'm fine." Yolande moved a little away from him in a fit of pique. "Why are you here?"
"This is my home," Baron looked at the angry little face of Yolande, and his eyes were a little red and
swollen. He roughly understood, "this is my bedroom."
"You!" Biting her lips, Yolande glared at Baron, but had nothing to say. She stood up and walked out.
"Where are we going?" Baron pulled Yolande back.
"This is your bedroom," Yolande turned her face, "I'll go out."
"You are my wife." Baron emphasized the last two words, "I'm here. Where are you going?"
"Ho ho." Yolande sneered and looked back at Baron, "do you still know that I'm your wife?"
"Of course I know." Baron nodded.
"I'm just a tool for you to get the Mu Mansion," said Yolande, staring at Baron. "I don't dare to be your
wife."
He pursed his lips and a hint of coldness flashed across his eyes. Yolande closed her mouth for no
reason. She was inexplicably scared, but she managed to calm down. Not to be outdone, she raised
her little face and looked back at his sharp eyes.
Baron pulled Yolande onto the bed. Sitting on the bed, Yolande was more scared and blinked her eyes.
"What are you doing? I..."
Before Yolande could finish her words, she saw Baron striding out. She was stunned. Before she could
react, Baron had come back. He was not only back, but also carrying a small medicine box. Yolande
couldn't help reaching out to touch her forehead. At this time, she felt a pain.
"Don't move!"
Baron stopped her at once, which scared her to stop moving. She muttered in her heart, 'It really hurts.
Is it really serious?'?
While Yolande was thinking, Baron had opened the small medicine box, dipped the medical swab in
alcohol and wiped her wound.
"Ouch!"
'So painful!' She couldn't help but move.
"Hurt?" Baron was going to clean the wound for Yolande. Seeing that Yolande's face was distorted in
pain, he knelt down immediately and said, "will it be better?"
"Baron?" Yolande widened her eyes and forgot the pain for a moment. "What are you doing?"
"Clean the wound." Baron said coldly. As he moved his finger, Yolande immediately screamed, "Are
you still painful? Be patient. It won't take long. "
"Baron." Yolande was a little anxious and didn't care about the pain. "Don't do this. Get up."
"In this way, you won't feel so painful, be good and don't move. The more you move, the more painful it
will be." Said Baron. While Yolande was distracted, he quickly cleaned the wound.
Yolande pursed her lips and didn't dare to move. When she glanced at the time, her eyes widened in
an instant. It was two forty!
Baron hasn't gone to bed yet?
"All right." He stopped, looked at Yolande and frowned, "be careful when you wash your face these
days. Don't touch water. It's not good to leave a scar."
"I don't care," Yolande said casually. "It's not beautiful anyway."
"I care." Baron turned back and glanced at Yolande, "It's my fault that I didn't take good care of you."
"Well..." Yolande pursed her lips, "I just fell down."
"The sofa will be changed into leather tomorrow." Baron looked at the wooden sofa and frowned, "does
Alex even care about this?"
"What?" Yolande widened her eyes and wondered what he meant.
"You can even fall on the road," said Baron with a look of disgust. He tidied up the medicine box and
put it aside. "It seems that Alex is going to take the blame."
"No, i..." Yolande wanted to explain, but she couldn't. she swallowed, lowered her head, twisted her
hands and mumbled, "thank you..."
Baron didn't respond. He walked to the door. Yolande breathed a sigh of relief, but before he could let it
go, Baron turned around and closed the door. Yolande immediately widened her eyes.
"You..."
"Sleep tight."
As Baron spoke, he lifted the quilt on the bed and got into it. He was wearing pajamas, and it was
obvious that he was going to sleep here.
She sat on the edge of the bed and dared not move. 'How could she sleep?'
Leaning against the headboard, Baron looked at Yolande as if it was a matter of course.
Yolande moved at last. However, still a look of loss. Then she got under the covers and curled up, her
big double bed taking up only a small corner and didn't move.
Baron pursed his lips and turned off the light without saying anything.
Yolande breathed a sigh of relief. That was good. But as soon as she lay down, she felt the bed beside
her slowly sank down. Before she knew it, strong arms closed around her from behind, and she almost
cried out.
