Hiding Behind Her Superficiality by Kyla Olson

Chapter 549

Chapter 549 How Dare You
“She misunderstood,” Hank explained as he pulled his arm away from Cecelia and
looked Yelena in the eyes. “I explained it to her clearly. There is no need to continue
with the acting.”
Cecelia was just about to squeeze out some crocodile tears but had to retract them
upon hearing that. Immediately, she pouted her lips. “Why didn’t you say it earlier? I
even had to pinch myself to squeeze out some tears. Don’t you know that it hurts?”
However, Hank did not feel guilty at all. “Well, you didn’t give me a chance to speak
the moment you entered. You have been rambling about your sperm supplier.”
Sperm supplier? Yelena shivered and looked at Cecelia with a strange look. Cecelia
only realized that Yelena must have misunderstood Hank’s meaning after pondering
on her expression for a few seconds and immediately explained, “It’s not what you
think it is. Hank meant the father of my child!”
“The father of your child… You mean you’re pregnant?” Yelena instinctively repeated
her sentence, and a few seconds later, she pointed at Cecelia’s belly and asked in a
trembling voice.
“Yeah, it’s normal nowadays to be sleeping with your partner, isn’t it? Or are you
implying that you and Hank have yet to develop to that stage? Hank might look
cowardly and is a pure and innocent little virgin but don’t underestimate him just
because he looks average and has never even dated before. After all, he threw away
piles of love letters like trash. So, it’s normal that he doesn’t have any experience in
that matter.”
Cecelia patted Yelena’s shoulder with a solemn look. “You shouldn’t abandon him just
because he’s a virgin. He can still be trained.”
Yelena glanced at Hank, leaving aside the fact that he had never dated before… She
thought that it was a miracle that someone had the guts to write him a love letter
because he always looked like someone owed him a lot of money.
“Stop worrying about others and mind your own business first,” he lashed out at

Cecelia without having a single regard for the friendship. Only then did Yelena realize
why Hank commented so confidently that he and Cecelia did not like each other and
that any potential possibility of them eventually being together was laughable.
Alas, Yelena also did not expect that she needed to play the role of peacemaker at
this moment. She pulled Hank’s sleeve to signal him not to add fuel to the fire and
then smiled to appease the about-to-explode Cecelia, “Okay, don’t fight. Cecelia, you
have a baby in your belly. You shouldn’t get too riled up.”
Cecelia nodded upon hearing Yelena’s words and held her arm while she looked at
Yelena sympathetically.
“Yelena, you’re such a cute girl. I just don’t understand how you could be with Hank. I
don’t think he’s good enough for you. Why don’t you break up with him, and I’ll find
you someone better? I met so many handsome guys when I was studying abroad. Let
me bring you to see the world.”
Hank instantly pulled Yelena behind him as if he was trying to shield her from Cecelia.
His eyes darkened, and his tone became angry. “Cecelia, why don’t you find yourself
a knight in shining armor instead of meddling in other people’s relationships?”
Cecelia no longer felt like messing around after getting reprimanded by him. So, she
tossed away her phone in boredom. “Fine, then. Remember to protect your little
sweetheart. You better watch out before someone else tries to pry her away from you
since she’s so cute.”
“Mind your own business.”
At that moment, Yelena noticed a figure walking toward the door and knew that it was
an excellent opportunity to get the two’s attention away from fighting each other again.
So, she shook Hank’s arm.
“We have a guest coming.”
He narrowed his eyes as he turned to look at the person at the door.
It was a slender man dressed in a suit who exuded an aristocratic aura that made
people hesitate to gaze at him casually. He was extremely handsome, with a high
nose bridge and a pair of narrow black eyes with a deep gaze. He was wearing a
polite smile on his face but ceased doing that when he saw Cecelia.
Nonetheless, he did not rush to speak but waited for Cecelia to notice him and speak
first. As soon as Cecelia saw him, her body stiffened, and she instinctively wanted to
cover her belly with her hands. Regardless, after a split second, she realized that she
was only two months pregnant and her pregnancy was not showing yet. This thought
immediately eased her worry.
“Why are you here?” Cecelia’s tone was unfriendly, a far cry from her lively and bright
self just now.
Still, the man seemed familiar with her attitude and did not show an ounce of
displeasure at her tone.
Instead, he asked, “Where are you planning to run away to?”
“What do you mean? Running away? I merely returned to my own country. We have
nothing to do with each other. So, what’s your problem?” She crossed her arms, trying
to look more imposing.
“Of course, there’s no problem. But you’re wrong about one thing. We are in a serious
relationship.” He leaned forward slightly, lowering his voice a bit but loud enough for
everyone around to hear him clearly.
Cecelia responded by taking a step back and approaching Hank while secretly
throwing a soothing look at Yelena as she held his hand.
