Chapter 96 The New Luna Suite

After Ethan dashed off out the window, I listened to Soren as he was in the other room, speaking to Seraphine. I could tell by his tone that he was very concerned, and she was assuring him that I was going to be fine, but it was imperative that we find a new place for me to live as soon as possible.

I was nervous that he might smell Ethan in the room when he entered, but when he came into the room, his eyes were on me, and I could tell that he wasn‘t thinking about anything else.

Soren sat down in a chair next to my bed. His brow was wrinkled, and he interlaced his fingers as he leaned toward me in his chair, clearly worried about me and the baby.

“How are you, Ro?” he asked. “I came as quickly as I could. I‘m sorry it took a few hours for me to get home. Are you feeling better now?”

I was grateful that so many people were concerned about me. “I’m fine, Soren, but thank you so much for rushing home just to see if I was okay.”

“Of course.” He leaned back in the chair. ‘They told me that it was just an allergic reaction to the pollen, and you‘re all right, but until I saw you for myself, I was going to be worried to death.”

He paused for a second, and added, “Ro, you‘re extremely important to me. So is the baby. I‘m still not completely at ease, but at least you seem to be pretty much your old self.”

“Pretty much?” I asked, raising an eyebrow.

“Well, you seem a bit more tired than usual, but who can blame you for that after you passed out? I‘m so glad my guards were there to help you.”

“Me, too.” I thought about how awful it might‘ve been if they weren‘t.

“You know, I did mention that you shouldn‘t be outside right now, especially at night,” he gave me a scolding look, and I felt a bit like a child.

“I know you did, and I wouldn‘t have gone out at all. It was just… I was having trouble breathing inside, and I thought some fresh air would help. I didn‘t know it was the pollen.”

Soren‘s gaze was still locked on me, and he said, “Um…really?”

My eyes met his, and I held my breath. Was he suspicious of my excuse?

Luckily, he smiled, and persuaded himself, “I think that makes sense.”

I let out a sigh of relief silently.

“You can always move to my house until the baby is born. You‘ll be safe there, and I can find you a room to stay in,” Soren said with a simple shrug of his shoulders as if that settled it.

I shook my head. “Thank you, Soren,” I told him. “As kind of that is for you to offer, I couldn‘t bring myself to be a burden to you again. You are single, and you need your life and your privacy. Also, I don‘t think your business partners would appreciate seeing a pregnant woman just hanging out in your house when they come for business meetings.”

He laughed a bit and shrugged as if I were right.

“It would be best for me and the baby to relocate to a new house, someplace away from all of these towers where it’s peaceful and quiet. I have plenty of money saved up now, so I could find my own place to rent. I don‘t want to trouble you–”

“No, that‘s not necessary, Ro. I‘ll help you find a place,” Soren said. “I care a lot about you. I don‘t want you to feel like you‘re on your own now.”

“Thank you, Soren. That‘s so kind of you. But really, I don‘t mind making my own way now.”

He was shaking his head before I even finished the sentence. “I‘ve been looking for a new property to purchase anyway, Ro, as an investment property. You could live there and still manage it. We could have the same agreement as we have here, just in a new location.copy right hot novel pub
