Chapter 577

As soon as she finished speaking, Lorenzo grabbed her chin, lifting it up. In that forced eye contact, Ella wanted to dodge his gaze, but she just couldn’t. “L–Let go of me.”

Lorenzo said, “Are you avoiding me?”

Ella wanted to say yes but she didn’t dare. She stammered, “N–No, I’m not. Even though she was terrified, she didn’t dare to directly admit it.

Hearing that, he gave a slight smile. “If that’s not it, then why aren’t you eating?”

“I’m really not-”

“Really?”

Truthfully, she was quite hungry. But she always ended up in trouble in front of Lorenzo, like tugging at his belt buckle or his towel. She even almost pulled down his pants–thankfully, they were elastic. Fortunately, she didn’t succeed, or else….

If this kept happening, she didn’t know what would happen next time.

“I just feel like I’m kind of bad luck for you.” If she couldn’t deny it, she might as well admit she’s his bad luck charm. Hopefully, this would make him keep his distance a bit.

When Lorenzo heard her explanation, he was momentarily surprised. Even someone who always hid his emotions like him couldn’t help but show a slight smile. What a perfect excuse.

He picked her up out of the room, and Ella struggled frantically. “I–I–I’m really not hungry!” In her chaotic attempts to resist, there was a tearing sound. His quick steps down the stairs came to an abrupt stop.

Ella’s mind went blank for a moment. She looked at what she had torn from Lorenzo’s shirt, and then at the big opening that showed his abs clearly in front of her.

Ella was speechless. This must be the feeling of total breakdown. In that moment, she really wanted to ask, “What kind of fabric is this shirt made of? How much strength did I use? Really…?”

With a pained expression, she met Lorenzo’s eyes. “Sorry, I’ll pay for it.”

She’s caused trouble now by tearing his shirt. If she kept going like this, she might end up pulling down his pants next time.

Meanwhile, after breakfast, Stephanie got up and said, “Ah, I’m so full.”

Sebastian’s expression changed slightly. He pinched her cheek playfully. “I told you not to eat too much, but you still did.” Lottie was startled to hear that. “Oh? Feeling a bit stuffed? Then take a break, and I’ll take you for a walk.” Pregnant women were like that–when they wanted to eat, they ate, but it could make them feel uncomfortable.

Sebastian said, “I’ll take her.” With that, he got up and picked up Stephanie’s coat from the side, helping her put it on. Lottie said, “If you’re busy, go ahead. The wedding dress will be delivered soon, and I’ll stay at home with Stefi to try it on

Lottie wanted to spend more time with Stephanie. She had just returned yesterday when an urgent matter came up, preventing them from spending even an hour together.
