Bedmates Soulmates novel Chapter 597

Kira would have liked to punch his lights out or at least slap him across the face, but she had her baby to think of 

A physical confrontation would do her no good. 

“What attack?! 

‘Still playing dumb?‘ra curled her lip. Come on, be a man. If you have the guts to do it, you should have the guts to admit it.” 

‘Admit what?‘ Liam lost his patience. ‘You’ve been throwing accusations at me for the past five minutes, yet I still don’t know what crime I’m being charged with 

He had come here for econ 

Deborah was back in Stamford, which meant Austyn must have returned, too. 

Kira had to know about their bastard child by now. 

Why wasn’t she tighting with Austyn? 

Why wasn’t she demanding a divorce? 

Liam wanted to sound bet out. 

And Deborah was acting weird. 

She threw herself at him and let him use her as a whore. 

When he woke up, she was gone. 

There was no way he could ask Austyn what was going on, so Kira was his only viable source of information. 

nut the way Kira glared at him made him realise something must have happened on Austyn’s trip to more 

“Deny it all you want, but it’s not going to change the facts.” 

Austyn told her that he suspected Liam was behind the attempt on his life in humore 

Kira had asked him if he would call the police on Liam, but Austysaid no. 

There wasn’t enough midence. 

Maybe that was why Liam was acting so calm as if nothing happened. 

He knew the law couldn’t touch him 

“You better watch out, though, Kira said, “Good deeds will come back to help you, and bad deeds will come back to haunt you. One of these days, you’ll get your comeuppance.” 

‘Comeuppance for what? What exactly are you accusing me of? Liam blocked Kira’s path, ‘You’re not leaving here till you give me an ATISVET. 

Kira raised her right hand but Liam caught her wrist. ‘Trying to slap again?” 

“You deserve it!‘ she shouted, “You deserve more than just a slap. In fact, you deserve to be put behind bars!! 

“You shot Austyn!‘ 

Liam matched berface closely 

She wasn’t joking. 

“Are you out of your mind? I did no such thing – 

“You didn’t, but your hired gun did!‘ Kira glowered at him someone else pulled the trigger, but you’re the mastermind!‘ 

‘Austyn’s shot? For real? 

Kire stomped herfeer. at course it’s for all Do you think I’d make up something like that?” 

“And you think I was the one behind this? 

“Of course you! Who else would hate him this much? 

Liam netted. “Don’t be narve, Austyn has his fair share of enemies. Off the top of my head, can give you the names of ten people who want him dead more

the serious look on Liam’s face. 

He returned het gare, unflinching 

Was being to her again! 

How could it not be him? 

Austyn sold it was him 

He had motive 

And he had the money and the connections to hire a futman. 

“s overseas trip gave him an opportunity. 

Means, motive and opportunity–he possessed the murder trifecta 

All that was laclong was evidence 

Common returned to Kira’s eyes. 

It had to be him. 

Liam didn’t miss that look on her face. 

He swore under his breath. 

ca had him przzed as a murderer, at least an attempted one 

If he couldn’t find out the real culprit, he was going to be made a scapegoat 

I swear to you, I have nothing to do with Austyn getting shot. Heck, I didn’t even know he was shot till you told me.‘ 

Kira hutted but said nothing. 

She refused to be taken in by his lies once again. 

He placed both hands on her shoulders and forced her to look him in the eye. ‘I’m going to find out who did this, and I’m going to clear my name. 

Kita shrugged off his hands. ‘Do whatever you want. It’s not going to change my mind.” 

Liam straightened up and gave her a long look “You owe me an apology. I’ll come and collect it when I bring you the real culprit.” 

Then he turned on his heel and strode away. 

Kira stared at his back 

Could he be telling the truth for once? 

She shook her head and dismissed that thought. 

Aleopard never changes its spots. 

He was just playing games with her like he always did. 

Kira shookher fist at him. 

Act Fast Free B 

Banus Time is Running Out! 

Jealous Of Her Own Baby 

At half past ten pm, Elsie finally agreed to go to bed, but not before she made sure the fridge was stocked with ready–to–eat snacks, in case Kira got peckish in the middle of the night. 

Kita went upstairs with an armload of fruits and nuts and cheese crackers. 

She set them down oncotice table in the bedroom and flopped into bed. 

She was tired but refused to go to sleep. 

Her phone rang when she was in the bathroom 

Kiradashed out with the toothbrush still in her mouth. 

But her face fell when she saw Gideon’s name onscreen. 

She let the call go to voicemail. 

She would have blacklisted his number, but she kurw Gideon would just get a new one and keep calling. 

Kira was determined not to talk to him anymore, not after what he tried to do to her the best time. 

Gideon must be out of his mind, thinking he could make her get an abortion! 

Kirakaw people changed with time, but she never expected Gideon would change so much. 

She fell foolishly for his lies when be said he just wanted to be her big brother. 

He put up such a convincing act 

Kira hated him for calding advantage of her trusting nature. 

He knew she had a soft spot forfamily and exploited that ruthlessly. 

If Austyn were here, he’d probably lah her cheek and call her “dummy.! 

Kira sighed and trudged back into the bathroom. 

Gideon’s true colours were extremely difficult for her to accept 

It was like walding up one day to find the sun had risen in the west–it went against everything she had known and was familiar with 

Would Gideon have continued to fake it if she weren’t pregnant? 

He knew she was manted. 

He knew she loved Austyn 

What exactly did he think he would achieve by playing the role of big brother? 

Kira was neither vain nor excessively mudest. 

She had searched within herself many times and failed to come up with an answer. 

An answer for why doleon was obsessed with her. 

There were plenty of women prettier than her, or smarter, or sexder–plenty more fish in the sea 

Why couldn’t cidrone that? 

Kira didn’t want to hate him; it would be like hating her own past. 

But she knew she had to stay away from him. 

She was almost done brushing her teeth when the phone rang again. 

She took her tline coming out of the bathroom 

Hereyes lit up when she saw the caller 11. 

‘Austyn!” 

‘Are you still up?” 

pustetting ady for bed. She libbed a little. 

It was way past her bedtime. 

Rita was dragging her feet, waiting for his call. 

Stamford was thirteen hours ahead of South Rockwood. 

It would be no clock in the morning for Austyn 

Several times, she had wanted to call, but held off because she didn’t want to disturb him. 

“It’s almost eleven thirty in Stamford,‘ Austan sighed. “What are you still doing up? 

Dr I go said Kira might feel sleepy during the day and then be able to sleep at night, but the doctor recommended that she stick to a regulat sleep pattens. “You need plenty of rest doing your lost timester,” asyn said. 

He was post calling to check it the ‘1⁄4 Fallen aslerp 

Hr had not expected her to actually pick up the call. 

Kira hugged a pillow and said nothing. 

“What’s wrong?” 

“Tell me the truth,” Kira said, ‘are you only showing this much concem because of the baby?” 

In other words, did he care about the baby more than her? 

He had called not to ask how she was doing or if she missed him. 

He was just calling to remind her to have enough rest for the sake of the baby. 

Kita couldn’t help but feel a stab of resentment. 

Austyn fell silent.. 

When he spoke again, there was a trace of a smile in his voice. ‘Kira, are you jealous of your own baby?” 

She cleared her throat. ‘Of course not!! 

‘Then why did you ask that question?” 

Kira’s face was flushed with embarrassment, 

It was a stupid question to ask 

She was regretting it now. 

But he didn’t have to point it out! 

Couldn’t he be the bigger man and pretend like nothing happened? 

“I do care about the baby,‘ Austyn said. ‘But only because it’s yours.‘ 

Before she had a chance to get angry, his soothing voice appeased her promptly. 

Hercheeks were flushed now with a different sentiment. 

“I will love our child very, very much,‘ Austyn continued. “But it will never be as much as the love I have for you.” 

A broad grin broke out on her face.
