MARRIED TO THE HIDDEN BILLIONAIRE

Chapter 53. I planned the bomb



“Skyler!!!” The ward door pushed open and Ivy was the first to rush in, before she could pounce on Skyler’s body, Mason caught her forearm and pulled her back.

“She’s not feeling well yet, you shouldn’t rush her like that” he said calmly.

Skyler only gave Mason a low smile before looking at Ivy.

“I’m fine, really,” she said softly.

Grandpa Mario and the others including Maya stepped in.

“Sky” he walked towards her and felt her forehead.

“Your temperature is normal but I made you some soup, you should try it, it smells nice” he began opening the flask while Emily rolled her eyes from behind.

Mason didn’t say anything, he was just watching quietly with his hands in his pocket and earlier both him and Skyler agreed not to tell the old man anything about losing the baby.

“Thank you Grandpa, it really does smell nice” Skyler smiled at him.

“So why was my sister in-law bleeding earlier?” Hudson was the first to ask.

“Yeah Skyler you were bleeding earlier what happened?” Edna agreed and all of them had curious eyes except for Maya who was faking to be worried.

“Grandpa, it’s nothing she slipped while she was in the bathroom which got her injured but her wound has been taken care of” Mason was quick enough to cover up.

“I’m really sorry about that sis, you should have called Mason, if that bomb wasn’t fake then the both of you would have been past tense by now” Ivy muttered with a sad pout.

“But you should be happy that we aren’t” Skyler let out a low smile.

“Hmm” Ivy nodded.

“Alright grandpa, I think you guys should leave before that paparazzi somehow locates us here” Mason said when he felt like they were staying for too long.

“You’re right, please make sure Sky eats the soup and when is she coming home?” The old man asked.

“I can come tonight,” Skyler replied but Mason didn’t agree with her.

“I already told the doctor that you are leaving here tomorrow, I want to make sure you feel really better” Mason told her.

Skyler just looked at him but she didn’t know how to argue with him so she didn’t say anything.

“Hey sis, make sure you check the news and see who’s taking the number one headline” Edna winked at Skyler before they all left the hospital.

The ward was back to quiet again, Mason knew Skyler wanted to say something with the way she was looking at him so he nodded.

“I feel so bad that we had to lie to Grandpa, he’s always wanted a grandchild and he’s friends with Agnes and Hailey’s family” she muttered.

Mason sighed and moved closer to her. He took her hands and kissed it.

“You shouldn’t worry about that, we can have another baby later and I know we are both busy especially you and about Hailey and Agnes, I will deal with them and make sure they wouldn’t bother us again, trust me I know how to” he gave her an assuring look.

Skyler trusted him so she nodded and he gave her a peck on the forehead.

Two days had passed and Skyler was discharged from the hospital, the family gave her a warm welcome back to the mansion.

The next day, she returned back to her teaching class, but she didn’t go there without an excuse.

“Skyler, welcome back, where did you run off too?” Cynthia rushed to hug Skyler the moment she came back.

“I took permission from Miss Elizabeth that I was going for my sister’s wedding, I even brought cakes” Skyler showed Cynthia the bag she was holding.

“Did I hear cake?” Jasper walked up to them with a smile and waved at Skyler.

“Welcome back, I was about to ask where you were for two days until I heard you went for your sister’s wedding and it’s surprising because I didn’t know you had a sister” he narrowed his eyes on her.

Skyler only forced a smile at him before taking her seat. Lily was behind them, taking selfies with herself as usual, not bothering about anything.

Cynthia sat beside her while eating the cake. She suddenly brought out her phone and showed Skyler.

“Did you by chance hear of this?” She asked.

Skyler’s eyes widened but she immediately covered it up and shook her head. It was the picture of her and Mason at the party both putting on nose masks.This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

The headline was, Mr Delgado was spotted with his wife publicly for the first time and there were lots of pictures of them having millions of likes and views.

Skyler blinked repeatedly and cleared her throat. “I was so busy with my sister’s wedding two days ago that I didn’t hear of these, when did it happen?” As she asked, she tried not to sound suspicious.

Anyways Cynthia didn’t get any chance to suspect her as Miss Elizabeth entered the class.

“Students pause on whatever you’re doing, we have lots of notes to catch up on” she faced the teaching board the moment she entered.

Skyler thanked God inwardly as she brought out her notebook, getting ready to pay attention to the class.

“The movie is really getting lots of audience with the fake bomb incident that happened at the lunch party” director James said proudly.

“And why are you proud about that? We could have died” Ivy stared at him.

They were both sitting in the office and having a discussion. When director James gave Ivy a type of look, her eyes widened.

“Don’t tell me it’s what I’m thinking?” Ivy said slowly.

“I planned the fake bomb” director James confessed and Ivy jumped from her chair.

“How could you, director!!” She yelled out.

“I had too!!” He groaned.

“You didn’t have too” she gave him an unbelievable look.

“I do, we need Ivy’s attention ,” he said tiredly.

“Attention? Do you know how many people got hurt thinking their lives were in danger? My sister in-law got injured!!” Ivy was really angry.

“Look I’m sorry we had to go that far” director James gave her a pleading look.

“Yes director, you should be sorry!” Ivy scoffed and angrily stepped out of the office.

When she stormed to the parking lot and entered her car, her phone beeped and it was a text from Blake.

He was asking if she would be free for ice cream.

“Where are you?” She texted back to him.

“Close to lick me at the ice cream shop? How was the meeting with the director, do you want me to come pick you up?” He texted back.

“Don’t worry I’ll meet you there”

After dropping the last text, she put her phone inside her purse and started her car.
