Chapter 248 I Was Scared To Death

Essie looked confused and curious. Zac quietly changed the topic and distracted her thoughts. "Grandpa and grandma will be back next month. We have to start preparing for our wedding."

"Wedding?" She was shocked because she had never thought of holding a wedding ceremony with freezing house. Zac saw Essie was in a daze and slightly nodded her head, "after the wedding, there will be a honeymoon trip around the world."

"You don't have to hold the wedding ceremony so soon, do you?" She said haltingly. She was worried too much. If Mom knew ice house was the heir of Rong family, would she accept him? Would she come to the Dragon City for the wedding? At that time, she must meet the Xu family. Although her name had changed and her appearance had changed, the Xu family could not recognize her, but she could recognize them. She still remembered them. All the sad memories in the past would surely be recalled.

As for icy guy, would he want to marry his evil girl, or punch himself?

All of a sudden, her mind was filled with all kinds of worries.

"It still has three months to go before Valery's baby is born, and we will get married after three months. Besides, it's said that this year is not a good time to get married, so I think we should set the wedding next year. In this way, we will have plenty of time to prepare." Her analysis sounded plausible. In the dark, Zac furrowed his eyebrows. He couldn't know her inner worries and anxieties, so he thought that she was deliberately procrastinating.

"Don't you want to hold a wedding ceremony?" He asked gloomily.

Being keenly aware of his displeasure, she said in a low voice, "of course I want to. The happiest thing in a woman's life is to wear a wedding dress and walk into a church. If you agree to marry me three months later, I'm destined to be entangled with you for a lifetime. I certainly want to have a wonderful wedding with you, but we should choose a lucky day to get married. We should take a good omen and get a happy marriage in the future. There will be full of children and grandchildren. It's not a lucky year this year. We should avoid it. " That was a good excuse.

"You're superstitious." He flicked her forehead.

"This is not superstition, but tradition." Essie shook her head and said, "I bet the elder in the family will share the same idea with me." She said, unconsciously letting out a sigh of relief. What was she worried about? Her mother-in-law was there, and she would definitely try every way to delay and hinder their wedding.

Zac didn't respond. After a moment, he put his hand on her belly and said, "my dear wife, if we hold the wedding ceremony next year, you will look awful in wedding dress when you have a big belly."

Nonsense!

She shook off his hand, "no, I won't. I take medicine every day."

Zac's deep eyes flashed in the darkness, giving out a strange light. During this period of time, he had better be careful. He couldn't ask her for too many times. Otherwise, he would accidentally hurt the baby that might secretly appear in her belly.

When they returned to the hall, Walt had already sent Nita to her home.

Mary was not very satisfied with this girl, mainly because of her bac

nd three nights." His voice was like a cold wind, which made Essie shiver.

Basement! The word scared her the most.

Her memory gathered in a terrible torrent and rushed to her. She turned around and curled up in his arms, trembling all over. "I don't want to go to the basement. Don't lock me up. I'm afraid. I'm afraid of the basement most." She was a little incoherent and her voice was trembling slightly.

Her reaction made him panic. He immediately held her in his arms and said, "don't be afraid, you idiot. I'm just saying. Even if you made a mistake, no one dared to lock you up. Mommy doesn't have the right."

She nodded and then shook her head, as if her thoughts were in a chaos. "I am really afraid of the basement. Don't lock me in it, don't lock me..." Essie said and buried her head into Zac's arms and didn't dare to look into his eyes.

"No, no, No. no one can lock you in..." Worrying that she might suffer from claustrophobia, Zac turned on all the lights in the room while comforting her gently.

Seeing that she was still shaking, he hurried to sing for her. He remembered that she had said that she was not afraid when hearing someone singing. Sure enough, not long after, her body no longer trembled, and her breath gradually became even. He breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense nerves slightly relaxed.

If he was right, her somber phobia should have something to do with the basement. And the word "basement" was prohibited. No one was allowed to mention it in front of his wife.

"Are you feeling better?" He asked in a low voice.

She nodded, "freezing guy, go on singing. Don't stop."

"Okay." Feeling sorry for her, he stroked her head and continued singing. His singing had the function of hypnosis, exploding the shadow of fear in her heart slowly.

Gradually, she fell asleep again, with her hands grasping his collar tightly.

He gently stroked her tear stained face, feeling pitiful. If he knew who the bastard was to make his wife suffer from somber fear, he would make him regret living on the earth.

At the Xu family's Manor on the other side of the Dragon City, Valery sneezed.
