A Love Trap

Chapter 806 One Hour Per Day

With her clever mind and wild imagination, Chloe had developed a large number of fans.

As soon as she posted her message, a lot of comments from her fans came pouring in.

"What? Our author is pregnant? But will you still update your novel?"

"What? Then when will my Bera and Samwell get married? My beloved couple... I've been looking forward to their happy ending, but our dear author is pregnant. It's not good for her to face a computer screen all day long now. Have a good year's rest, Author Chloe, and have a safe delivery."

"Well, you can't forget about us. Even though you're pregnant now, you must remember us still."

...

Chloe patiently read all the comments and carefully replied to them one by one.

She even chatted with some of her fans.

Time elapsed quickly and quietly. Chloe was still chatting with some of her fans when somebody knocked on her door.

"Miss Chloe, are you in there?"

It was her butler was standing outside her bedroom. Not knowing why he came to her at this moment, she simply replied, "Yes, Porter. It's open. Come on in."

Porter Lin pushed the door open and came in. When he saw Chloe sitting in front of the computer, he glanced at the time on his watch. Then, he walked up to Chloe and said to her, "My lady, according to the young master's orders, you are to only use the computer for one hour per day. You have used up all your computer time today. No more."

Porter explained in a formal tone.

After casting a glance at the time on the lower right corner of the computer screen, Chloe was surprised. She had no idea that she had been chatting with her fans for over an hour.

It went by that fast?

Why did she not feel it at all?

Letting out a small sigh, Chloe turned off the computer reluctantly. She was pregnant now. She needed to avoid being exposed to radiation for too long.

"Well, no more time in front of the computer screen. Got it."

"If you are bored, you can go out and play for a while," Porter said with a forced smile.

Chloe thought that Porter was allowing her to play outside the villa, so she agreed without hesitation.

"All right."

But when she was about to walk out of the villa, Porter and some servants blocked her way.

"Porter, I thought you're allowing me to go out."

"Yes, my lady, but not out of the villa. You can play anywhere you like within it."

Hearing Porter's words, Chloe's smile vanished completely from her face.

'Is this really happening?

I'm only allowed to move inside the villa?

Well, well...'

In the end, Chloe went back to the hall and slouched into the sofa as if she no longer had anything to live for.

Poking at the pudding in front of her, she was bored to tears.

She was completely disappointed.

It seemed that Nolan had instructed the servants to forbid her from doing anything.

The baby would be Nolan's firstborn, that's why he ordered Porter to keep a close eye on Chloe. Porter had been taking care of Nolan since he was a child. He knew clearly that Nolan's mother and father only retained a business marriage and that there was no love between them.

Nor did they have any love for Nolan.

His mother was nice to him, but his father had fathered many siblings for him with other women.

However, with the most ruthless means, Nolan managed to inherit his father's corporation.

Nolan had grown up under Porter's care. He knew what kind of hardships Nolan had gone through. Now that he was about to have his own child, he must brace himself.

At the same time, Derrick also received a call from Chloe. He was still a little confused since Chloe did not show up to work today. Although Chloe was not very proficient in the management of her company, she was not one to ditch work.

Why did she suddenly skip work today?

The news of Chloe's pregnancy startled Derrick so much that he almost spit out his coffee when he heard it.

It made him choke and cough continuously. Some of his coffee spilled on his shirt.

The coffee had dirtied the pile of documents in front of him, but Derrick did not care about it. He was shocked at the news that Chloe herself told him.

Derrick's assistant who was standing next to him did not know why he got so excited all of a sudden. He looked at him inquiringly, but Derrick just waved his hand, gesturing him to get out.

Then, Derrick himself pulled out some tissue paper to wipe the spilled coffee off his clothes.

"Are you kidding me? You are pregnant now? You... You were fine a few days ago. Why are you suddenly pregnant?"

Derrick still could not get his mind back from the heavy blow of Chloe's news. He thought all Chloe had was a boyfriend. How could she be pregnant?

He did not expect at all that Chloe was already married and had a baby in her belly.

It truly astonished Derrick. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

He actually liked Chloe very much. If only her boyfriend was not a thousand times more outstanding than he was, he would have had the guts to win her over. He did not expect to receive this kind of news at this time.

He was too stunned to say anything.

Back in the villa, sitting on the sofa, Chloe rolled her eyes and said, "Well, what do you think? I'm a little surprised. I just called to tell you that you will be in charge of the company affairs from now on. Don't let me down."

"Yes, yes. Of course. Don't worry," Derrick replied.

"All right. Great. Thank you."

After she finished speaking with Derrick, Chloe hung up the phone.

It took her a lot of effort to convince Porter and get him to bring her the phone as she could only have an hour's time on a cellphone. She would not waste any playtime on Derrick.

One hour later, Porter took away the cellphone from Chloe's hand.

Chloe cast a plaintive look at Porter, but he was unmoved.

In J City...

Ashley also felt happy for Chloe's pregnancy.

She remembered their talk when she went back to J City not too long ago. She could tell that Chloe really wanted a baby and to become a mother.

Now, Chloe had achieved what she wished before. As her close friend, Ashley was genuinely happy for her.
