Billionaire’s Runaway Bride

When I took a look at him, he just looked better and greeted me subconsciously, “Miss Miller.”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone.

My expression also changed. I knew that this greeting must have been heard by the person on the other end of the line.

Bill walked quickly to me.

“You don’t have an umbrella? Where is your car? I’ll drive you there first.”

Then he was about to open the umbrella in his hand.

“No, thanks. I’m still waiting.”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Bill nodded and stood beside me.

I really don’t want to see Penn. He won’t come down until a while later. Looking at the heavy rain outside, I hesitated for a few seconds and walked away from Bill quietly.

I have to leave here before the man comes out.

When I was about to step into the rain, Bill’s voice came from behind.

“Sir, you…”

Not knowing what had happened, Bill stopped abruptly.

Then, I felt a chill coming straight behind me.

In a panic, I stepped into the rain.

The next second, a black umbrella appeared, and my wrist was firmly grasped by a big hand. He pulled me back to the door of the hotel.

“Are you crazy?” Penn’s voice was full of displeasure.

I lowered my eyes to adjust my mood. When I looked up at the man’s eyes, there was already indifference. “Mr. Carter, what a coincidence.”

He frowned slightly, “you drank?”

I nodded noncommittally and said, “I just drank a little when I had dinner with my colleagues.”

As soon as I finished speaking, the man’s low voice sounded again, “I’ll drive you back.”

When he spoke, he was still holding my wrist.

“No, thanks. The person I’m waiting for has already arrived. I can go back by myself. Please let go , Mr. Carter.”

“Who are you waiting for? There are so many people waiting here. Why did your designated driver arrive so soon?”

I choked with sobs and answered, “because I called early. There are so many people here. Please let go. I don’t want to cause unnecessary trouble.”

His eyes darkened and let go of my hand.

I nodded at him distantly and walked quickly into the rain.

Penn followed me in big strides, and the black umbrella in his hand leaned towards me.

“Your wound hasn’t healed yet. I’ll drive you there.” the man’s voice echoed in the rain.

But I didn’t turn around and walked faster and faster.

“It’s slippery in the rain. Be careful,” he reminded with a frown.

Although the people behind me kept holding umbrellas for me, it was raining heavily. I was wearing thin clothes, so I wanted to shiver with cold. But Penn was following me, so I had to grit my teeth to resist the rain and replied coldly, “if Mr. Carter could stay away from me, I also want to walk slowly.”

He finally stopped.

Without the umbrella, the rain fell on me, freezing me to the bone.

I struggled into the parking lot, opened the door and sat in the back seat. My mind was in a mess, waiting for the designated driver in the car.

I don’t know if it was God’s will. The more I wanted to avoid Penn, the more God wanted me to run into him in various places.

Besides, that man’s attitude towards me makes me feel more and more terrified

Daphne had already picked up the two kids and they were playing Lego in the living room.

The two kids were worried when they saw me come in wet. “Mommy, are you wet?”

I was a little tired, but I still comforted the kids, “I didn’t expect it to rain, so I didn’t bring an umbrella. I got wet on the way to the parking lot. It’s okay.”

After saying that, i asked Fiona to take care of the two kids. Then i went upstairs to take a shower and change clothes.

Then I went downstairs and played with the kids for a while before going back to room to have a rest.

I don’t know if I’m too tired these two days. I just feel weak all over and almost fell asleep as soon as I lay down.

I woke up in the middle of the night and was about to get up to get some water. As soon as I got up from the bed, my arm suddenly became soft and I fell back to the bed again.

I frowned and slowly woke up. Then I realized that I seemed to have a fever.

But it’s midnight now. I don’t want to disturb anyone, so I want to have a sleep first. Maybe tomorrow will be fine.

Thinking of this, I fell asleep again.

I had a deep sleep. I wanted to wake up, but I couldn’t. I even heard the voice of two kids before I struggled to open my eyes.

“Mommy!” the two kids came to me excitedly.

But I was stunned for a moment. Then I frowned and wanted to stand up. “Sorry, Mommy got up late.”

I was thinking about sending the two kids to the kindergarten.

Aviva and Cyrus carefully pressed me back to the bed and said earnestly, “mommy has a fever. We can ask for leave to take care of her at home.”

Hearing this, I was stunned again. Then I realized that I did have a fever, and it seemed that it was a little serious

Seeing the two kids care about me so much, my eyes are full of excitement.

In a daze, Fiona went upstairs and told me that Lundy had come.

“She’s alone?” I felt a little dizzy.

Fiona nodded, “I asked him to wait downstairs. Do you want him to come up or call Mr. Carter to pick up the child?”

I was having a fever and didn’t respond immediately.

Seeing that I didn’t say anything, the kids quickly spoke for Lundy. “Mommy, let Lundy come up. He must have known from the teacher that you are sick and ran over by himself.”

I frowned and nodded.

With my permission, the two kids went downstairs and brought Lundy upstairs.
