Vampire'S Secret Baby
|71|. A Very Unexpected Confession

Annette clamped her pair of eyebrows, with a depressed feeling she looked back. He saw Egbert standing with his usual cold expression. Annette momentarily let out a heavy breath.

"Darling, of course you will" said Annette in the end, pressing Aldrich's little shoulder in a persuading tone he again said, "So, now you come home with mama?"

"Mama, pick me?"

"Eum, whatever it is you're the only one for mama"

"Then drive the man away. I don't want to see him in our house anymore"

Annette blinked her eyes, confused as to what kind of expression she should have. Although to be honest, he found it a little funny to see Aldrich behave like that.

Egbert who heard the child's outburst of anger, pursed his lips in a sneering grin. But refused to comment anything.

"Eum, you won't see her in our house again. Because she was going back to her own home" Annette extended her hand to Aldrich's head and rubbed it gently. His son's corny yellow hair, felt very smooth on his palms.

"..." - ".Aldrich lifted his head, staring deep into his mother's eyes. Seeking truth and certainty from his words.

"Now we're home, huh?"

Slowly, Aldrich nodded his head. According to go home.

Just now Annette smiled happily, relieved that she had managed to persuade Aldrich. But his lips instantly froze, extinguishing his smile. His pair of black eyeballs were enlarged, almost jumping out when he saw his son's nose dripping with thick fresh blood.

"Son, you're a nosebleed.." That's never happened before. Annette became panicked. He was always afraid that Aldrich would get sick even if he had a little something, it was because his son had a mix of vampire genes. With the condition, he was unlikely to take her to the hospital, raising people's suspicion.

Egbert's eyes shriveled deeply, as he saw a drop of thick, blackish-red blood gleaming from the little boy's nostrils. But the scent that tapped his sense of smell, made him dizzy from the confusion of processing was it true human blood?

His blood smelled a little pure. Delicious as a little deer, but the more it smelled, it was like the blood of his people that gave off the aroma and traces of the bitter taste of English salt.

'I never found the scent of human blood this unique'

"Maa, I'm dizzy" Aldrich held his head that suddenly felt heavy.

"P-dizziness?" Annette started to panic. Not having a piece of cloth in hand, he pulled the cloth on his wrist and wiped the blood dripping from Aldrich's nostrils.

"Maa, how dizzy.." Aldrich never whines when he falls out of a chair or slips because of running, but this time he does.

"D-iman's dizzy um? Here say the same mama, where?" Annette's voice sounded vibrating as her lashes were fluttering with uneasiness.

"Here maa, here.." Aldrich held part of his head and his previously fresh red lips paled little by little.

"d-here? Well then mama's the incandescent" Annette is actually very confused about what to do. But just when he reached out his hand was about to massage his son's head, however...

"Sickness, pain— argghh"

Aldrich jumped onto the grass-covered ground, holding his head with both hands and rolling around so pitifully.

"Aldricht.." Annette's lips trembled and her eyes began to be covered in a hot mist.

"Fast carry your son, we take him to the hospital" Aldrich is not a person who likes to sympathize with others, especially humans. But to those who work faithfully under him, he would treat them with excellent care.

Since Annette is his blood servant, that woman will be one of them.

"No, she can't be taken to the hospital" Annette shook her head erratically, in panic and anxiety, starting to not know what to do with her little son who was in so much pain.

"Your son is like that but you still say no?" Egbert frowned, "If you don't have any money, I can take care of the medical expenses"

Annette was struck by Egbert's generous offer that slid from her mouth that was always apathetic whenever she spoke.

"Wait what else, hold your son!"

'Looks like I don't have a choice'

"She can be taken to the hospital" Annette said later. His eyes were trembling sadly, going to stare at Egbert helplessly, "As long as the doctor handling it is not human"

Egbert frowned, forming a pleated and confused inner layer, "What do you mean?"

"Egbert"

"..." - ".Egbert's eyes blinked. For a moment the girl's voice was so familiar in her ears when calling her name so directly and without hesitation.

"My son's.." Although it begins to strengthen the heart to admit, it still feels heavy.

"Maa.sakitt maa..s-sakitt arrghh"

Aldrich's agonizing screams left Annette helpless. What if there's an upheaval in Aldrich's body that human doctors can't handle? It is not impossible to remember the combination of genes that his son has.

"Puff" Aldrich spewed a mouthful of blood onto the ground.

As Annette's face paled, her heartbeat slowed as if her world had stopped spinning. Her lips that were shaking most wanted to speak the truth but her heart was heavy.

"Puff" Aldrich once again spewed out a mouthful of blood and the small body began to appear gloomy.

Tears seeped when Annette saw the sight. His entire body shook, wanting him to run pulling the small body into the deck, but finding his knee pair weak. Make his gravity keep falling to the ground.

Squeezing his fingers, he pressed down on all his ego and raised his gaze straight at Egbert.

"Egbert" Call him again.

"..."

"You" His lips trembled, tears poured out and steadied his heart to continue, "You are the father of my son"

"..." - ".Egbert stood in place.

"So I beg you, quickly save our son.."

"..." - ".Egbert still had a hard time processing things that felt dusty and a little difficult to digest his mind. The recognition of the human girl made her dark aura ooze out even more.

"Hurry to call a doctor from your country to handle it. Hurry along.." Hunt Annette. Seeing Egbert's reaction so slow, he almost died from losing his temper.

"You are.." Egbert's eyes furrowed sharply, staring at Annette as if aiming at a small deer in the forest.

"I'm Annette"

There's nothing more to hide. Annette took off her short black wig and her long golden brown hair fell down dangling to the waist.

"Your wife"

"..." - ".Instantly a pair of Egbert eyes grew full of surprise.

"The human girl you forced into your bride— to conceive and bear a child.."

"..." - ".Egbert's jaw hardened.

"That's me"
