Too Late, Mr. Cooper: Your Bride Ran with Your Baby novel Chapter 404

See, what did I tell you?

Liliana inviting him here was never going to be an act of kindness.

This was an ambush, plain and simple.

She had no intention of being nice to him.

…Heh.

Despite the slap, Linton wasn't angry. He eagerly leaned in again, trying to win her over. "Darling, it's cold out here. Let me help you out," he coaxed in a low voice.

Liliana glanced up at him, then pushed against his chest. "Get lost," she said with cold disdain. "I have my brother. I don't need you."

Linton turned to look at Gabriel in the driver's seat.

Gabriel met his mournful gaze with a helpless shrug. "Don't look at me," he said coolly. "The princess has spoken. I'm not about to cross her."

Linton fell silent.

Fair enough.

He grimaced and reluctantly stepped aside, allowing Gabriel to help her out of the car.

Liliana didn't even spare him a glance, treating him like he was invisible. She didn't explain why she'd asked him to come; she simply started walking towards the hospital entrance.

A sudden unease gripped Linton's heart, his anxiety intensifying. Resigned, he hurried to catch up, carefully offering her the bouquet of roses with a humble, placating tone.

"Liliana, I bought you some flowers…"

"And this teddy bear is for our daughter… no, I mean, for your daughter."

Realizing his slip of the tongue, Linton quickly corrected himself, a faint blush creeping up his handsome face. He looked utterly defeated.

Having a daughter he couldn't acknowledge, forced to watch from the sidelines, was a special kind of torture.

Liliana paused and shot him a cold look. "Throw them out," she said flatly. "I don't need them."

Linton was speechless.
