Facade Love: Marrying A Perfect Husband

Chapter 281 - 281 ( Come Back )

Oscar let out a long sigh. He felt pressured. He then smiled faintly at the two of them. And receiving many surprised looks from them.

"Are you smiling? it's so rare. Is there anything interesting you would like to share with me?"

Oscar nodded.

"Sure!"

Cleo took a seat beside Oscar.

"But before that, let's talk about where you have been until before this time and what you've been up to that!"

Cleo took out her cell phone and read one of the messages Harry had left her.

"Two weeks ago. You sent me a message. Asking me to be patient and calm waiting for you to come back. Because you won't be gone for long. But, how did you come back without giving words?!"

Oscar had out a straight face. Although he knew the messager was Dirga.

"As I have said before. I want to give you a surprise. That's why I purposely went home unannounced."

Cleo grabbed Oscar's hand.

"Did you know how worried I have been all this time? Julia has told me that you have returned from her father's residence. But, you didn't return to this home. Your grandmother even represented you to answer all my questions. Until I found it hard to believe her. Although I have to and hope that everything she says is true."

Oscar pretended to protest.

"Didn't you believe in grandma?"

Cleo shook her head.

"I did believe her. But my heart was hard to accept your absence by my side. Everything happened so strangely. And I couldn't stop feeling uncomfortable. I'm afraid something would happen to you."

Oscar gave a concerned look.

He could see how much Cleo loved Harry. And how she didn't want anything bad to happen to her husband. Oscar felt a little envious. He put the bad thoughts aside. And thanked Ane for agreeing to Harry's unusual request.

Oscar took his drinking glass and gulped it down.

"I feel much better now. So, how long are you going to keep worrying about me and holding my hand? Though I'm not going anywhere after returning. I will always be by your side. And it would be foolish for you to think something bad happened to me!"

Oscar puffed out his chest.

"You see! I'm fine. I don't lack anything!" Oscar lightly patted his chest.

Cleo laughed with relief mixed with joy.

"That's what I expected. And I've heard from Julia that her meeting with your uncle went as well."

Oscar had already heard a lot of the information he needed. About how Harry had to go to Switzerland and what his destination was. About his disastrous return. Then, lastly. About the figure of Julia who was only found after 17 years missing.

Oscar was like being in a fairy tale world. And he didn't really want to be a character in the fairy tale, even if he had to be a substitute.

Oscar thought of a line of appropriate words to reply to Cleo's words.

"Everything went smoothly thanks to you. And I'm very grateful."

Dirga had also told him that Julia was Cleo's friend. He was found because Cleo realized it before the big fight broke out.

Oscar then leaned closer and looked at Cleo seriously.

"I have news that will surprise you!"

Cleo looked curious.

"What news have you brought for me?"

Oscar grabbed Cleo's hand for the sake of his acting to be perfect. Oscar spoke slowly. When Cleo realized that Oscar's appearance today looked more cheerful than usual.

"You are pregnant. And you are pregnant with our child!"

Oscar maintained nausea he suddenly felt. She found it quite odd to call someone else's family's future baby her child too.

Cleo put on a stupid face.

"Pregnant? I? How did you find out?"

Oscar took off his earphones while cutting off his communication with Dirga.

Oscar cursed inwardly.

@w.e.b.n.o.v.e.l.w.e.b.n.o.v.e.l

Oh! For God's sake! Or for whatever reason! Did I have to do everything so far?

The child is the result of their relationship! But I have to be the messenger?! The world will collapse any minute!

Oscar looked as natural as possible.

"You're pregnant. And you have to believe me. I can't lie to you. Especially for this problem. Then! I learned this news from grandma!"

Cleo was even more astonished.

"Grandmother? How did grandma find out?"

Oscar turned the question to something else.

"9 weeks. That is your gestational age. You're lucky we found out earlier."

Cleo still couldn't believe it.

"But how is that possible, Har?!"

Oscar scratched his head. How did he know! He's not the father of the child in Cleo's womb!

"That's probably because we are husband and wife. We've had to make sex. Your uterus is healthy too. And you are a woman!"

Cleo chuckled.

"That's not what I asked. I still don't understand why everyone knows I'm pregnant. But I do not?!"

Oscar pointed at Cleo.

"But you know it now!"

"That's a different story!"

Oscar finally gave in.

"Oh, okay. I understand. And I will explain. I did hear about your pregnancy from grandma. You guys have been to the hospital together. Do you remember?"

Cleo recalled how frustrated she was to keep looking for Harry. But she couldn't find it. She finally fell ill. Doctors have also given drugs and vitamins to increase stamina.

Sofia just said that all was well. Cleo was said to be just overthinking and worrying. So the condition affects her body.

Sofia just said that anything was well at that time. Cleo was said to be just overthinking and worrying. So the condition affects her body.

Lately, she has been feeling nauseous in the morning. For a certain scent, she began do not to like it. She also sometimes has trouble sleeping. The whole of that, Cleo thought it was due to her unwell body.

But, turn out. This all turned out to be because she was pregnant?

Cleo was still digesting this news with a stupid look. She was stunned and difficult to respond. Cleo still couldn't believe it.

"I'm pregnant, Har?!" Cleo said several times. She kept blinking.

"I am pregnant?" At this time, Cleo smiled cheerfully. Happiness was clearly visible on her face. She was almost speechless. Because to her, this was extraordinary. Her eyes started to glaze over.

"You must state your request, honey. So I can fulfill it and make you happier."

Oscar was just trying to guess what Harry was going to say. He was being a sweet and stiff-man at the same time based on what was in his imagination of Harry.

Cleo hugged Oscar again without compromise.

"I'm glad you're coming back. This is a very pleasant thing for me. We will also have a child. There is no greater joy than this. Then, I hope there's nothing that makes me have to part with you again."

Cleo brought her face closer. She looked up as the two of them sat together and side by side. Oscar reflexively kept away.

"What do you want to do?"

Cleo froze.

"Giving you a full love's kiss. Couldn't that be realized?"

Oscar raised one eyebrow. Frustrated.
