Chapter 32 Explanation
Warren’s brows were as cold as ink. He glanced at her and said, “Isabelle, you know how much my mom wants a grandson, but do you care about the baby at all?”
Isabelle was lost for words.
The pregnancy was an accident. She wasn’t ready. Indeed, she didn’t have a deep affection for the baby…
“You inconsiderate brat, why are you being harsh? Don’t you see Bella’s eyes are red?” Lying in bed, Tara opened her eyes slowly.
Isabelle ran toward her and held her hand. Feeling bad, she was on the brink of crying. “Tara, I’m sorry to worry you. I was unthoughtful.”
“Why, high blood pressure makes me subject to faint. But it’s not as serious as he said. Don’t listen to him!” She stroked Isabelle’s face.
Tara loved her deeply. It made Isabelle feel guiltier. After her mom died, no one cared so much about her. She hadn’t expected that her lie would cause Tara to be hospitalized. She hadn’t known clearly about Tara’s condition before. Now, it seemed Tara was frailer than she had thought.
Warren stared at Isabelle with a cold look in his eyes.
“Son, come here. Help me up.”
As soon as she got up, Tara put Isabelle’s hand on Warren’s arm. It seemed it was high blood pressure. Tara looked fine. With Maggie’s support, she walked toward the door. “I’m going to the ladies‘ room. Mollify your wife. She’s pregnant with my precious grandchild. She’s

the VIP of our family now. Don’t argue with her!”
After lecturing Warren, Tara had Alison close the door of the ward.
The light in the ward was pale, and the ward fell utterly silent.
Warren pushed away Isabelle’s hand and walked to the window.
His tall figure emitted a cold aura, which spread across the room.
Isabelle knew why he was angry. She caused his mom’s illness. It was unforgivable.
He wouldn’t mollify her.
“L. I’m terribly sorry…” Biting her lip, she apologized, her face clean and fair.
Her tone was soft.
After a long while, he finally turned his head to look at the meek girl. “What did you do wrong?”
Isabelle said sincerely, “I was too eager to take revenge to think of your mom’s feelings.”
“And?” He looked at her coldly.
With watery eyes, Isabelle thought about it and shook her head. She wouldn’t admit to things that she didn’t do.
The stubborn expression on her face made him laugh.
He approached her and forced her to lean against the wall. In a grim voice, he asked, “Why did you ignore my call and message?”
Surprised by his question, Isabelle looked away and lied, “My phone was broken.”

“Huh,” Warren snorted.
He suddenly wrapped his arm around her waist. Before she knew it, he had reached into her pocket for her phone.
“L! Give it to me.”
He unlocked the screen and found there was nothing wrong with her phone. The message Glenda sent her was still shown on the screen. Anger was plain in his eyes. “So, you deliberately ignored my call and message? Why?”
Standing on tiptoes, Isabelle tried to get her phone back, but he was too tall and robust. Her body kept rubbing against his. His chest suddenly heaved. Holding her, he squinted and asked in a husky voice, “What are you doing? Do you want special punishment? Eh?”
Isabelle saw danger in his eyes.
His body seemed to be burning up. Blushing, she moved away, took a deep breath, and said indifferently, “I did nothing wrong. Why should I be punished? Please don’t flirt with me. We’re in cooperation. Crossing the line will make things complicated. I don’t know how many women have sat on your lap before. I don’t care. Nor will I sit on it!”
Staring at her, he suddenly lowered his head and said, half smiling, “I sense jealousy. Why are you jealous?”
Jealous? She wasn’t. He was talking nonsense. Isabelle denied immediately, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“How many women have sat on my lap before? You’ll know if you sit on my lap often.” Raising his brows, he held her wrists. Anger seemed to be fading in his eyes.
His flirtation made her blush even more. “I won’t sit on your lap! I’ve

said that we shouldn’t cross the line.”
“OK. In this case, I saved you today. Aren’t you gonna marry me to repay me, Ms. Spencer?”
He was too glib. She couldn’t know how to retort to his last remark!
Isabelle pushed him away angrily. But he held her. The touch of her soft body and her fragrance made his Adam’s apple bob. “You’re in the wrong, and yet you’re scolding me. I must punish you.”
Her hands held behind her back, Isabelle had to straighten her body. Warren took this opportunity to kiss her.
“No!” She said she’d keep a distance from him…
But she couldn’t get away from him. While kissing her. he kept his eyes open. With her eyes blinking, she was like a frightened deer. She tried to resist him, but her face was flushed. The attraction was even
more…
Isabelle opened her eyes widely, but his broad shoulders blocked her way. After a while, her legs went soft. She had to clutch at his pricy shirt and belt for support… He held her hand, put it on his belt, and asked wickedly, “You like it? Then, don’t let go!”
She blushed from embarrassment. When did she say she liked it? She didn’t know how it became like this…
Annoyed, Isabelle bit his lip.
Warren slowly let her go. Touching his lip with a frown, he said, “Is this all you can do? Were you a wild cat in your previous life?”
“You’re a bully. You deserve it!”
“Do you even know what bully means?” He lowered his head. The look

in his eyes dimmed.
“I–I understand now…” Afraid of the look in his eyes, she put her hands on his firm chest to resist him.
Warren took a deep breath and held her in his arms. With a cold expression, he warned, “Remember, even though our contract expires in a year, you’re now my wife. If it happens again, I won’t spare you.”
Isabelle nodded. “I’ll be a good wife within this one year.”
“Will you let me go now?” she asked angrily. “You look like a graceful villain bullying an innocent girl.”
“Are you innocent?” He snorted, disdainful of her remark.
With his hands in his pockets, he was about to let her go when someone opened the door and came in. “Warren, what’s taking you so long?”
Bang! Alex froze and covered his eyes with his hands. Then, he peeked and said loudly, “Wow, kabedon? Tara, your son is good. I saw nothing!”
“Let me have a look.” Tara trotted over.
“Go away!” Warren quickly stood before Isabelle and cast Alex a cold
stare.
“OK, OK. I’m going away.”
The door was shut. Isabelle’s face seemed to be burning, but Warren remained calm. After letting go of her, he looked at the bathroom and asked, “You first or me?”
She looked at him vigilantly.

Raising his brows, he said, “You came back from another hotel. Don’t you need to brush your teeth?”
Isabelle understood.
“Why are your ears red? What are you thinking?”
He pinched her earlobe before going to the bathroom.
Isabelle bit her lip angrily and decided to ignore him.
