Bride of Mr.Billion

Chapter 143

Although Ivan’s features were not fully developed yet, the kid looked more and more like Kieran,

whether you looked at his eyes or his face

In the past, Julie had refused to accept the fact that Ivan and Kieran looked alike. On one hand, it was

because Kieran had impersonated Mr. Kennedy so well that she had never thought Ivan could be

Kieran’s son. On the other hand, she was so fond of Ivan that she didn’t want to think he was the child

of Kieran and Bertha

But now knowing Ivan was Kieran’s son, Julie increasingly felt that this child looked very much like

Kieran.

Whether it was the thick eyebrows or those deep, star like eyes, the father and son looked very alike.

Even their face shapes were the same. The only difference was that Ivan’s mischievous and clever

character was more like Julie when she was a kid.

Kieran squatted down next to Julie, reached out and pinched Ivan’s little chin, carefully looking at him

from side to side

Julie slapped Kieran’s hand away. “What are you doing? Be careful not to wake him up…”

Kieran withdrew his hand. He remembered the last time Ivan seriously pointed at him and Julie’s

wedding photo, and then pointed at his face in the album, pouting his little mouth, and earnestly told

him, “Look at my mouth, isn’t it exactly like Mama Julie? I must be Mama Julie’s real child! I’m so cute, I

definitely didn’t inherit that from you!”

So Kieran imitated his actions, pointing at Ivan’s chubby little mouth and said, “Isn’t it alike?”

Julie touched her lip, then looked at Ivan’s pouted little mouth, and looked at Kieran with some doubt,

‘Really?”

“Mmm, even the taste is the same,” he answered

Julie was taken aback, deciding to ignore him. She reached out and picked up the clothes Kieran had

put on Ivan, threw them at him. Then she stood up, intending to take van to bed

However, Kieran had already guessed her intention. He threw the jacket back into Julie’s arms, then

picked up Ivan and headed for the big bed

Julie hurriedly followed and lifted the quilt on the bed Kieran bent down and gently put Ivan on the bed.

Watching Julie tucking an in, Kieran reached out and pinched her chin, ‘Isn’t it alike?”

Julie pushed Kieran’s hand away and asked casually, “What’s alike?”

“Chin”

Julie walked to the table, and while she was cleaning up the plates and utensils, she grumbled, “I

carried him for ten months, and he ends up looking just like your

“Eight months,” Kieran corrected Julie, “You carried him for eight months and three days”

Julie paused in her cleaning, and then continued as if nothing had happened.

Kieran didn’t respond to Julie, which puzzled her. She turned around and saw Kieran seriously looking

at the sleeping Ivan, Then, he turned his head and said softly to Julie, “He really doesn’t look like you”

Julie’s face changed. However, he added, “We’ll have another one that looks like you”

Kieran had already stood up and was slowly walking towards her, intending to take the utensils from

her

However, Julie directly threw down the utensils into the trash can next to her

“Do you think just because we had dinner, we can act like nothing happened?” Julie challenged Kieran,

firmly telling him, “I will definitely regain custody of Ivan.”

“Okay.” Kieran didn’t insist on approaching her, but sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Julie

affectionately.

He surrendered so easily? That was not his style.

Julie crossed her arms and asked him, “Are you really willing to give me the custody of Ivan?”

“Yes.” Kieran smiled, “I’ll give you the custody of myself, too. You raise Ivan, and then Ivan raises me.

Is that okay?”

What a shameless guy!

“It’s not okay! You’re not my kid, so I have no obligation to raise you.” Julie answered him.

Seeing Julie’s answer, Kieran smiled and said, “Although I’m not your kid, your future children are all in

my body. Is that okay?”

Julie rolled her eyes.

She didn’t argue with him anymore. She could never win against him.

Julie started to clean the table. Kieran spoke from behind her, “Someone will come to clean it up

tomorrow”

Hearing this, Julie didn’t say anything. She sat down on the couch and told Kieran, “Dim the lights

when you’re going to sleep.”

Seeing her attitude, Kieran immediately stood up and walked over to Julie, “You sleep in the bed. I’ll

sleep on the couch.”

Julie glanced at the couch. It was too short for Kieran. He could only sit all night.

“The couch is too short. You sleep with Ivan!” As soon as Julie finished speaking, she and Kieran both

looked at Ivan.

Ivan’s sleeping position was… just like Julie. He was sprawled out on the bed, his legs almost hanging

off the edge.

“You sleep in the bed!” Julie said.

Kieran saw that Julie was not willing to compromise, so he sat down on the couch.

Julie was startled, “If you want to sleep, just sleep!”

She quickly stood up from the couch and ran towards the bed barefooted.

Kieran suddenly reached out and caught her, causing her to unexpectedly sit on his lap.

Julie grabbed Kieran’s hand, just about to stand up, but Kieran pulled her back down.

His hand held hers, his arm around her waist..

Once Kieran started taking things seriously, all of Julie’s struggles were in vain.

“Aren’t you going to let me go?” Julie said coldly, “You might get retribution for doing this.”

“While Ivan is still asleep, let’s have a good talk.” Although Kieran didn’t let go, his tone was very

gentle.

The man’s deep voice came from behind Julie, making her whole body tingle.

Julie snapped, “I don’t want to chat with you.”

It was rare for her to be so defiantly direct in rejecting him.

Kieran paused for a second or two before answering, “What if I showed you my love through actions

instead?”

“No way!” Julie abruptly pulled away from his grasp.

Only out of fear of hurting her did Kieran loosen his grip..

Barefooted, Julie moved towards the bed. Kieran slowly followed. He didn’t expect Julie to suddenly

turn around when she was close to

the bed.

Kieran walked lightly, so she didn’t realize he was close until she bumped into his chest, causing her to

step back in fright.

Kieran instinctively held onto Julie as she stumbled backwards onto the soft bed. Julie forcefully

pushed Kieran away and fell onto the

bed.

Kieran was also pulled onto the bed by inertia.

Thankfully, he was quick to react, propping himself up with his hands on either side of Julie’s shoulders

to avoid lying on top of her.

The atmosphere suddenly turned awkward.

A small smile crept onto Kieran’s face….

“You said you didn’t want any actions, yet here you are pulling me onto the bed.”

This man seriously had a knack for twisting the truth.

Julie looked up at him and retorted, “You’re the one that pounced! Don’t blame this on me.”

She had wanted to defend herself, but he shot back quite frankly, “I’ve been holding back for years.

This is already me being very restrained.”

He always emphasized that he’d never had an affair with Bertha. As far as Julie could see, she

believed him. In Kieran’s mind, Bertha was his brother’s woman, and he would never violate his

brother’s wife.

But given Kieran’s current status and position, he must have had countless temptations. They had

been divorced for five or six years. How much self-control must it have taken for Kieran to remain

single for all these years?

Julie awkwardly turned her gaze away, “Whether you restrain yourself or not is your business. Intimacy

between couples should be consensual. Who knows how many lovers you’ve had these past few

years?”

-Are you jealous?” His slightly rough fingers gently traced her face. He looked a bit disappointed as he

said, “It’s a pity, but you’re the

only woman for me. Whether it’s a new or old lover, it’s always been you.”

His words were really sweet…

Julie gathered the courage to look Kieran in the eye, “Mr. Hernandez, there’s really no connection

between us. You don’t need to rush to prove your loyalty to me.”

I may not agree.” Kieran said meaningfully before changing the subject, “I will come to pick you up and

take you home from the hospital tomorrow.”

“Which home?” Julie placed her hand on his chest, “If you have something to say, let’s sit up and talk

about it.”

“If we sit up to talk, you might be distracted.”

“If we don’t sit up, I might be more…”

“Distracted?” A cunning smile appeared on Kieran’s face.

Julie denied, “You’re thinking too much. What I wanted to say was that you’re too heavy and it’s hard

for me to breathe.”

“I can give you mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.”

Finally, Julie got mad, “Just say what you want to say! Hurry up!”

“Let’s go home tomorrow. Ivan and I will come to pick you up.” Kieran brought it up again.

This time Julie didn’t avoid the issue. She stared straight at him and asked, “You want us to live

together?”

“Mhm, you could say that.”

“A cohabitation before marriage?” Julie’s tone was laced with sarcasm.

They saw each other’s eyes. Kieran softly said, “We’re married.”
