Chapter 299 - People In Town

Violet drove to the café where he usually unwinds after having a bad day in the mansion. He always came out because he was completely stressed about Wendy. He said it to her. She watched as the waitress approached him with water and slid a paper to him. Now that her message was sent, all she has to do is wait. 

She didn't want to go in there. She hasn't put any makeup on or her wig on. So, she watched as he went out of the café and looked around. There were taxis around and so, he drove toward him in a fake taxi. She rolled down the window and turned her head to him. 

"Hopped in." 

He opened the door in the front seat as he hopped in. Then, he put the seatbelt on. He stared at her. She drove the car away as his hand automatically went to her thigh. She didn't glance at him and he wondered what he did wrong to make her annoyed. 

"Did I do something wrong, love?" He asked. 

"No." She shook her head as she held his hand with her right hand. "I'm just in a bad mood today." 

"I ditch the Mansion to see you. I don't want to stay there longer. It's toxic." 

"I know." She glanced at him as she gave him a tight smile. "I want to take you away badly. But I can't." 

"It's alright. I will bear with it. I will wait until they are ready." 

She pursed her lips as tears started rolling down her cheeks. She sniffled and nodded her head. 

"Don't cry." He said as he wiped her tears. 

"Sorry, I'm just in a bad mood." 

"I understand." He moved closer to her and kissed her temple. 

She drove away and changed plate numbers many times since she knew well that they were watching over them. Shortly, they arrived at the house where they spent the rest of their day. 

He helped her take out the take-out meal as they entered the house. Violet went directly to the kitchen to put the drinks in the fridge. Victor quickly placed the food over the table and he hugged her from behind as he shoved his face to her neck. She could feel his hard body having that need. He hugged her tightly and sighed. 

"You are the only one who could give me this comfort, Violet." He said softly. 

"I'm glad." She said and tapped his arm. "I will ask you questions first and then show you something."

He stepped back and unwrapped his arms. She took him to the living room, pushed him down on the sofa and she sanitized her hands. 

"Are you going to check up on me again?" 

"Yes," She said softly. She scooped his face and kissed his lips. "Let me just run you a quick test and I will show you how adorable our baby is." 

"Alright." He said submissively as he watched her take out a stethoscope. She told him to relax as she recorded his heartbeat. Then, she asked a few questions about what he felt and whatnots. 

After she ran a check-up on him, she sat down and sighed. 

"You had more massive headaches and you can't sleep well." She said. "This is bad," She grumbled. "What pills were you drinking?" 

He quickly took out something from his pocket and gave it to her. 

"Here are the new drugs that they gave to me." 

She looked down at it. There were at least five of them and she felt bad that he had to drink a lot of drugs. She shook her head. 

"I will send this to the laboratory quickly. Make sure that you won't drink it." She reached his cheeks. "I will do everything to save you." 

"I know." He reached her face and stared at her eyes. "Why aren't you feeling well, my love?" 

She put away the equipment and she snuggled to him. He hugged her to comfort her. 

"I am worried that something bad might happen to our baby." 

"Hmm?" He asked. 

"We want to know the full map of the facility." 

"I can provide that." 

"It will be risky." She massaged his head. "Let's eat first so you can sleep well later." 

"Hmm," He nodded his head. 

"Do you always take off the things that they gave to you?" 

"Uhuh," he scooped her face and kissed her passionately. "I missed you. I don't know why but you've been ditching me for two days now." 

"I'm sorry." She kissed him back and gently pushed him. "I was busy with the formulas and I got worried about our baby." 

"You don't have to be sorry." He said softly. He slid his hand inside her shirt but she gently stopped him. 

"Let's eat first. I'm starving." 

"Alright," 

He followed her to the kitchen as she settled the table. He pulled a chair for them as they had their late lunch. He couldn't keep his hands off her while she's feeding him. 

After two hours, the couple was naked in the bed while they were watching Kal in the video who was smiling and babbling words. The way he grinned was too adorable as there was a white little tooth on the lower gums middle. 

"Wow," He said softly. "He looked so much like Hannah Grace from her first smile and first tooth. I can't forget it." He chuckled as he snuggled to his wife. "I wish to hold him. I wish to get away from those psychopaths."

"Just wait a little more." She said softly. "He's just six months…" She whispered. "Look at how it's easy for him to stack those blocks. He's too advanced from his age." 

"That's because his mom is very much intelligent." He kissed her cheeks. "Let's make another." 

"Hmm," She giggled. "We can have another after all of these problems." 

"Okay." 

<><><><> 

Maxine fell asleep beside Kal. She woke up with the baby's feet over her chest. She smiled and carefully moved it. She suddenly heard the dogs barking. So, she reached the tablet and checked on where they were. The Doberman that was guarding them looked at her. 

"What's going on?" She sat up and checked the gate as there were few people there who played on the doorbell and then they were throwing stones at the camera. She frowned as she quickly pulled out her phone to call Terrence but before she knew it, the retired army that Terrence hired as a caretaker came with a crane to make them stop. They ran out and she sighed in relief. 

"We are safe." She said positively. 

Shortly, her phone started ringing and she answered it. 

"Hello?" 

"Hey, Max. It's Ian, how are you doing?" 

"Hmm, just recently there were kids who tried to hit the camera on the main gate. But we are fine. The caretaker that Terrence hired sent them away." 

"Okay, that's good." 

"How's my husband?" 

"Well, he's busy. But I am sure that he will call you later." 

"And, Violet?" 

"Well, Violet is currently out with her husband. She will be too busy. You know." 

"Yes," Maxine nodded her head, and then Kal opened his eyes, stretched, and looked around. "Kal is awake. Thanks for checking on us." 

"Sure," He said. "I and Viper will monitor you for a while and the emergency numbers are with you, right?" 

"Yes," She smiled. "Thanks, Ian." 

"Okay. Bye." 

She put away the phone as she bent down and kissed Kal. She reached the diapers as she changed his diapers full of pee. She wiped him off and put on a little powder then she took him downstairs as the Doberman followed her. 

She whistled to call the dogs for their snacks. Since each of them exercised and ran around patrolling in the house, Terrence told her that they should be given enough food for their energy. 

Just when she's preparing snacks, the telephone rang and she answered it. 

"Madam, I already spoke to the town captain about those kids who almost destroyed a few things. I will set up something to charge it to them but then I found out that there's someone envious of you." 

"Oh, crap." She reached her head, feeling dizzy. "Thank you, Sir." 

"Don't mind it. I am a caretaker of the house and it's my duty to help you, Madam." 

"Thank you so much. I owe you." 

"Just call me if anything else happened." 

"Okay, thank you." 

She sighed and hung up. Then, she looked at Kal who was getting irritated. 

"Sorry, are you hungry that much?" She picked him up and kissed him. Then, the dogs lined up waiting for their food. It's a good thing that she set up their snacks a while ago. 

After giving the dogs their snacks, Aspin rushed to the window and scratched on it. He stared outside and she wondered what made him act that way. She approached the window and he turned to her. 

"What is it?" She asked as she patted him. She went to the counter table as she reached the tablet and checked the cameras on the lawn but there's nothing. The dog kept barking and the other dogs started roaming around and yet she didn't understand what was happening to the dogs but she knew that it was something bad. 

She prepared Kal's snacks and fed him.. The dogs were running around and didn't make any noise and she found out that it's time to call Terrence.
