The Love Trap of the Ruler.
Chapter 246. Not from Adrean.
“Mistress's condition is fine and her content is also so. There is no problem even though the stomach is tense and there is a little bleeding, which indicates things are not good for the womb. This may be caused by stress and also the Mistress who is doing too many excessive movements. But even so, it is better to rest and reduce the stress. I can't be sure what will happen if the Madam gets stressed, what we fear is the worst of all that the Madam will have a miscarriage. For that I hope Madam can be treated a few days here for more rest and strengthen the content,” was clear the doctor was about the state of Graciella who was immediately taken by Xavier to a nearby hospital after he complained that something was wrong with her content.
Xavier heard it nod. He glanced at Graciella who only looked worried. Worried about being scolded by her husband, of course, even though she knew Xavier was never angry with her.
“Can rest only at home?” ask Graciella. Being treated in the hospital certainly made him uncomfortable.
“If you can make sure that you will only spend time to rest. We will allow it,” replied the doctor.
“No. It's better here. If at home. You will certainly steal to do the job,” Xavier said as if it should not be denied at all. Hearing that Graciella only had a slightly frowned face.
“Alright then. We excuse you.” The doctor immediately came out of Graciella's treatment room. Graciella only looked at her husband whose face had been tight from earlier. Panicked to see the state of Graciella that he found sitting on the sofa by holding his stomach.
“Suami, don't be so uptight,” woo Graciella to her husband who only looks at her at a glance. Choose to sit not far from Graciella.
“Sleep, rest,” Xavier's orders. This time the tone was friendly enough.
“Alright, I'll sleep.”
“Before that, where is your phone?”
“Eh? I don't know. Probably at home.”
“From now on you can't hold your phone.”
“Ha?” Graciella seemed shocked to hear what her husband said. He can't hold his cell phone. “Absolutely cannot or has a clock?” ask Graciella.
“Absolutely cannot.”
“But, all my work is there.” Graciella had objections. There's no way he's not holding his phone. What if there's a new case or what if Stevan or Daren find a bright spot about his mother's death.
“No. For now until your condition improves. You can't hold your phone or work. I already told Daren that for a while you're back on leave.”
“Yah-, but ...” Graciella still wants to tease her husband. But just now he wanted to do it Xavier instantly cut his talk.
“Nothing but. And I won't change my decision. Graciella, you better think about your situation and our son's. Adrean did not hurt Moira. But he almost made our baby wretched. I want you to take good care of him. Because at this time I cannot keep him who is in there,” said Xavier with a softer tone in the end.
Graciella who had wanted to tease Xavier was even crushed with the words of Xavier who had just thrown from her mouth. Her face and the look in her eyes that were filled with attention as well as worries about her completely entered Graciella's heart. In that case, it seemed like Graciella was tempted by Xavier's words.
“Good. I'll break.” Graciella lowered her body. Xavier stood up and helped his wife to break her body. He pulled out a blanket and tried to make his wife comfortable in the hospital room.
“I'll be out. Serin will replace me for a while. There's something I want to do. Don'tbeafraid. Moira is safe there and I've also given her layered guard here. So your job is to rest.” Xavier rubs gently the border of Graciella's forehead and hair. Graciella looked at her husband's face with her sparkling eyes. I feel so lucky to have a husband who loves me so much. He just nodded in understanding.
“Be careful,” Graciella said as her husband began to open the door of her room. Xavier just threw in a slight smile and came out immediately.
Graciella could not close her eyes. Someone who is really not used to napping and asked to take a nap will certainly be difficult. But perhaps out of boredom of doing nothing, he finally decided to just close his eyes. Waiting until suddenly he had moved to dreamland.

“How is Graciella doing? I heard you took her to the hospital?” stevan asked directly. He was busy in his office waiting for the reports of his subordinates.
“The situation is good. What about Adrean?” ask Xavier. He immediately went here to find out where the cowardly man was. How could he just send a threat to Graciella.
“Strue, we're late. He's already escaped out of our territory. Last time it was seen he was heading towards the dock. And now its existence is not known at all.” Stevan put on a serious face. He had been watching the man for more than three months. But because Adrean managed to outwit them by acting as if he did nothing and behaved normally. Surveillance loosened. They are busy with other cases.
Xavier just kept quiet as he took his breath. Where's that guy? He'll never be able to sleep well before they catch Adrean.
“And again, we have tracked the mobile number that sent the last message on Graciella.”
Stevan's words made Xavier immediately look at him sharply. That message made Graciella's condition worse.
“Then?”
“I don't think it's from Adrean. It was from Devina. The last signal we got came from a cafe. And when we saw the CCTV. Devina was there playing her phone. Looks like she knew what Adrean did before and copied that way to make Graciella panic.”
Xavier heard it clenched his hand. What else does that woman want?
“Then where is he?” ask Xavier. There was a streak of anger appearing in his eyes. Because of the threat of the woman. She almost lost her baby.
“We've picked her up. He's being held in an interrogation room. Of course he won't admit it. He also doesn't want to talk at all,” explained Stevan in a relaxed tone. Didn't catch Xavier's angry face.
“I want to meet him.”
“Eh? Meet?” stevan asked who was finally staring at Xavier. He just knew the emotions shown by Xavier. “You want what?” Stevan is hesitant to bring Devina to Xavier. Even though he knew Xavier wasn't the one who would be able to be rude to women. But, I don't know. Highlight Xavier's angry eyes, making him feel so doubtful.
“I just wanted to teach her a lesson so as not to bother Graciella anymore. Where is he?”
