MY UNKNOWN HUSBAND, VOLUME 2 - Season 5 Episode 18

Nina thought for a while and said, “No, I don’t need it for the time being. There is nothing my brother cares about more than me. If he finds out that I’m pregnant, he will try everything he can to come back, and if my mother catches him, I’m afraid he will have to go to a farther place to study.”

“Is there anything wrong with studying abroad?” Vicente asked.

“Do you really think he’s in a simple overseas study trip?”

“Is he not?” Vicente asked in confusion.
Nina shook her head and said, “No. I heard from my father that my mother didn’t allow Leon to leave with even a single penny in hand, and she didn’t allow him to reveal his identity.”

“So he is penniless now?” Surprise flashed through Vicente’s eyes, but considering Anne’s character, it actually wasn’t surprising at all. “Don’t worry. With your brother’s brains, it won’t be a problem for him to make money to support himself.”

“My mother has also thought of that.” Nina felt sorry and self-reproachful for her brother. “It’s all because he helped me run away from home. My mother put restrictions in place for him everywhere. He won’t die, but his quality of life is not good.”

“So it’s not an overseas study trip after all. He has just been exiled. Gee, that’s so miserable.” For some reason, Vicente’s heart ached.

“It doesn’t matter. When I give birth to the babies, I will plead with them. I think my brother will be able to come back then. The two of them are now very eager to become grandparents.” Nina smiled and put her hands on her belly.

“Well, those two children have a very difficult task ahead of them.” Vicente bent over and placed her head on her belly to feel the babies, but she didn’t feel or hear anything.

“Why can’t I hear the fetal movement? I thought I was supposed to be able to hear the fetal movement if I stuck my head close to your stomach.”

“It’s been less than four months since I got pregnant. How can you hear the fetal movement now?” Nina had no idea whether to cry or to laugh. “The fetuses need to be at least five or six months for you to hear them.”

“What? Is that so?” Vicente scratched her neck with embarrassment. “I haven’t had a baby, so I didn’t know about that.”

“Do you want a baby in the future?” There was clearly another meaning to Nina’s words.

Their gazes met in the air.

If she continued to live as Vicente, it would be impossible for her to have a baby of her own. In fact, she wouldn’t even dare to have a love life.

She had accepted that she would be alone all her life long ago.

She didn’t even dare to have friends, for fear that her identity would be exposed and cause trouble to herself and her mother.

Truthfully, if her mother hadn’t let Nina see through her disguise as a man, she wouldn’t have trusted Nina.

Vicente averted her gaze and said with a smile, “You are pregnant, aren’t you? You will be giving birth to two babies in one time. That is enough for me.”

She intentionally avoided Nina’s question.

Still looking at her, Nina said, “I’m serious.”

“I mean it.” Vicente raised her head and found herself looking into Nina’s eyes. Then, she hurriedly looked away with a guilty conscience. “You will give birth to the babies in half a year. Once that happens, you won’t prevent the babies from calling me, will you?”

“What should they call you?” Nina asked. “Should they call you Daddy or Mommy?”

“They can’t call me Mommy. You are their mother. They can just call me Daddy. I promise that I will care for them with my entire heart and soul,” Vicente promised sincerely.

She deliberately changed the topic. In the past few days they had been together, Vicente had been really good to Nina, and Nina was hoping that Vicente could live a normal life one day.

Nina had seen Vicente crouching in the corner several times, especially during her menstrual period.

During her menstrual period, Vicente would get really bad stomachaches. Sometimes, her lips would even turn pale, and all she could do was apply some light lipstick to make herself look better.

Feeling sorry for her, Nina sighed and said, “The children have their own father.”

“It would be nice to have two fathers and more people who care about them.” Vicente laughed. “Well, it’s no big deal. There are a lot of celibatarians and DINKs who don’t have children.”

Nina wanted to say that Vicente was different from celibatarians and DINKs. Those people made their choice after careful consideration. Vicente, on the other hand, just had no choice.

These were two totally different situations.

Vicente had been imprisoned in the castle of Nangong family for a long time, and that had become the norm for her. It was not easy for her to break free.

If she didn’t take the initiative to come out after others managed to get her out of the prison, everything would still be in vain.

“What are you thinking about?” Vicente asked casually after getting no response from Nina. But when she saw that Nina was about to open her mouth to answer, Vicente cut her off. “You know, you don’t have to tell me. I know it already. What you need to do is take care of yourself and the babies in your belly.”

Hearing Vicente’s words, Nina sighed and decided to change the topic.

“I also have something to tell you.” Thinking of what she was about to say, Nina frowned. “Jett came here just now. He said that your mother scratched his wife’s face and disfigured his wife. He also took a video as evidence. I saw his wife’s face covered with blood in the video.”

Vicente’s heart rose to his throat, and she said angrily, “Although my mother’s brain is not working well, she would never beat someone for no reason. Jett’s wife must have said something to provoke my mother, and that is why my mother reacted that way.”

“Yes. Your mother said that Jett’s wife hit her and told her that Vicki was dead, so your mother hit her.”

“I knew it. They must have taken my mother away and asked you to send a message to me. What did they ask you to tell me?” Vicente said calmly.

Nina didn’t know if she was just pretending to be calm, or if she had actually become numb after going through so many similar situations.

It just made Nina feel strange and sad. “Jett wants you to give him an explanation. Otherwise, he will tell your grandfather about it and ask him to send your mom to a psychiatric hospital.”

As Nina spoke, she noticed the subtle change in Vicente’s expression. When Vicente heard that there was a possibility that they would send her mom to a psychiatric hospital, the calmness in her eyes wavered, and it became more and more unstable.

Now, the hatred in Vicente’s eyes could no longer be hidden. “They always threaten me with my mother so they can get benefits. How greedy they are!

Every time I am not by my mother’s side, they provoke her to do something out of line and then use it to threaten me. Ever since my father passed away, my grandfather has had a grudge against my mother. After a while, my mother went crazy. He hates the two of us and always tries to defend Jett’s family!”

The more Vicente said, the angrier she became. But she could only express her anger here. She was unable to deal with her grandfather.

Nina’s eyes darkened.

In the past, she had felt that she was unfortunate. But as it turned out, there were actually a lot of people who were more unfortunate than her, and some of them bore pain that she could not even imagine.

“Why did your mother go crazy?” Nina asked the question out of concern, though she knew that it was not appropriate.

Vicente shot her a meaningful look and went silent.

About two or three minutes later, Vicente’s face darkened and her voice became depressed. “My brother died of food poisoning when he was three years old. After my mother told me something, she was taken away by my grandfather, and when she came back, she had become completely insane.”
