Chapter 365 He Will Be a Father
“Miss Lane, are you… pregnant?”
Carter stared at Cora’s dress for a long time but couldn’t see anything different.
Being stared at, Cora felt a little guilty and uncomfortable.
Except for Carter, others at the dinner table knew Byron’s family background well. Just now, Byron entered the private room with his arms around her waist.
So it was self–evident who was the child’s father in her belly.
Some men in the private room had just taken out their cigarette cases. Knowing that Cora was pregnant, they immediately put the cigarette cases in their pockets.
Compared to Cora, Byron looked relatively calm. “Well, she just got the report. She is two months pregnant. I’ll be a father in several months and still can’t adapt to this role change.”
Carter was speechless.
Although Byron said that he could not adapt to the role change in a casual tone, there was a feeling of complacency in his words. Carter understood what he meant and felt speechless.
“Are you going to keep the child?” Carter knew the situation of the Hansen family well, so he couldn’t help asking.
As soon as he said this, Byron glanced at him coldly.
“She is pregnant, and the baby is a life. Of course, I will keep the child.”
“I mean, her pregnancy will involve many other things,” Carter reminded.
Byron seemed to realize this point. “Well, you are right. Remember to postpone the meeting and other affairs tomorrow morning.”
Carter seemed to know what Byron wanted to do, so he quickly agreed.
After observing for a while, the others at the dining table stepped forward to toast Byron and congratulated him one by one.
Cora thought her trick worked. She ate maternity meals guiltily.
After the dinner, Byron was drunk
Carter drove them back to the apartment. Something was weighing on Cora’s mind all the way.
After she told Byron about her pregnancy, she planned to tell him about her request to give birth to the child. But before she could say it, he took her to the private room.
Then, Byron ordered maternity meals for her. During the dinner, Cora spent the rest of the time watching him accept the congratulations and drink wine without hesitation as if he was a groom.
Cora couldn’t control the situation and had no time to tell him about her requests. So she was preoccupied.
After a while, the car arrived at the apartment.
Carter helped Byron onto the sofa and asked Cora, “Mr. Hansen is drunk. Can you take care of him alone tonight?”
“Maybe.” Cora looked at the man on the sofa, who smelled of alcohol. She hesitated for a moment but still nodded.
She couldn’t tell him about her requests if she didn’t keep him here.
“Okay. I’ll come pick you up tomorrow morning.” After saying this, Carter left.
Cora hesitated for a while. Then, she went to Byron and patted him.

“Wake up! If you’re not drunk, listen to me first!”
Byron opened his eyes and glanced at her.
“I’m listening. Go ahead.”
“I want to say that I also have requirements for giving birth to the child. You have to agree to my requirements first.”
Cora glanced at Byron and saw his eyes were still open. His expression had hardly changed. There was no trace of displeasure on his face. She mustered the courage and continued, “My brother got into trouble in another state and was detained. If you can take him back, I will give birth to your child.”
After saying that, she looked at Byron’s reaction, only to find his eyes closed.
“Byron?”
Cora approached closer and patted his cheek. She was a little discouraged when she heard the sound of even breathing.
“You are sleeping! How can you fall asleep at such a critical time?”
She was so angry that she even pinched Byron’s cheek.
But Byron didn’t respond at all. She sighed helplessly.
In the end, she had no choice but to compromise. “Well, I’ll tell you about it after you wake up.”
