The Bullied Husband’s Club - Chapter 176

The Prince’s Duty isn’t entirely in the castle. His duty is taking care of the business since he’s good at that. Prince Philip who originally handled all of the family business had turned it over to Princess Kaisley. That’s why Caleb is working with Kaisley but he isn’t only attending his business but his wife. They have separate works but still, there are facilities that he handled that were named to Kaisley’s biological father.

This time, they are dealing with the bombing in the jail. Caleb was also helping with investigating since he hired ex-military people who knew well about this kind of assignment. He sent them out at that time when they were thinking that they might get out of jail. Their main mission is to locate the people who installed it. It’s one of the guards.

“It’s Weekend yet you are working again,” Kaisley said as she gently placed his coffee next to him.

“Love, security is a must.” He said and reached her hand as he kissed it. “This is a big problem, my dear.”

“I know.” She walked around and hugged him from behind. “Kenzo and Victoria are currently in Pilo. They will take care of it.”

“Pilo, isn’t that your city when you live with your ex?”

“Yeah.” She shrugged. “I don’t want to go there, but I have to if it’s a must.”

“I’ll go there on your behalf. But right now, Grandpa wants us to focus on business and the office that I am establishing.”

“How is it doing?” She kissed his cheeks and hugged him tightly.

“It’s doing well. Don’t worry. I’ll surprise you. But since Stacey is on her honeymoon I can’t yet discuss the designs for this main building.” He rubbed his forehead and frowned when a familiar number was calling him.

“Who is that?” Kaisley asked.

“I am not sure.” He hesitated on answering it but he put it on speaker. “Tanner speaking.”

“C-Cal?”

A familiar female voice sounding like a cute girl made Kaisley raise her brow. Caleb also frowned. What the hell? That’s what he thought the first he heard the voice.

“Who is this?” Caleb asked even though he already guesses the person.

“It’s Samara…”

“Hmm, why are you calling?”

Kaisley’s deadly glare toward the phone might have hurt the person who was calling if Kaisley had such magic. But there’s no magic in this world and Caleb was afraid that she might send out people to pull Samara’s hair.

“Th~That’s because I want to see you and apologize. It~It’s about what happened in your company. My family can’t do it. It’s one of our competitors who wanted~~”

“I don’t need further explanation, Samara. I don’t want you to call my number again. And about that case, I think you shouldn’t care that much since you aren’t the one operating your family business. Please, also stop calling my number.”

“Caleb! Please~~I just want to talk to you personally.”

Caleb hung up and looked at his wife who looked pissed off.

“Alright, I’ll do my work now.”

“It’s the weekend, right?” She massaged his tensed shoulders. “You have to block her number and delete it.”

“Be my guest, my wife.”

She smiled at him.

“It’s your phone, you do it.” She sounded dangerous and sexy at the same time.

He obeyed his wife. He won’t lose anything by deleting someone’s number. Besides, it’s better that way. His wife is more important to him than anything else right now.

“Alright, so let’s start discussing our work,” Caleb said as he reached her hand from his right shoulder and kissed it.

Maverick just realized that Butler Reinheart knew a lot about medicine. He checked her pulse and her heartbeat. They already guessed that she might be pregnant. That’s why they brought five pregnancy tests to make sure of it. Then, after their honeymoon, they could go to their family doctor to check on her. He’s already happy that the possibility of her pregnancy is there. But he has to wait until she’s awake.

“We need to discuss something,” Vanessa told Maverick.

He followed her outside as they entered the study room just beside the master’s bedroom. He thought that it might be about Butler Reinheart but to his surprise, she showed photos of the incidents in the Pilo Jail Department.

“This is before and after the bombing. Duke Kenzo and Prince Caleb are already dealing with it.”

Maverick reached the tablet as he swiped it.

“There’s a glitch on the camera probably because of the effect of the bombs. They are already working on tracing the three. I found a car around it but it’s also hard to check the plate number. There are different plate numbers from front and back. It seemed like they tried to trick us.”

“Hmm, Belmont had to do with this,” Maverick said.

“Yes,” Vanessa nodded and leaned on the table. “I think Vince was hiding them somewhere isolated.”

“Vince,” Maverick shrugged. “He loves that girl. He would do anything for her. He loved her blindly even though he was betrayed.” He scoffed and put the tablet away. “I’m going to deal with it after my honeymoon. For now, we have to compensate for the life that has been taken in that department.”

“Don’t worry. I and Kenzo will handle it. You should enjoy this honeymoon with your wife.”

“Yeah,” Maverick nodded. “And are you also enjoying this vacation with Butler Reinheart?” He can’t help but ask her mother.

“I’ll tell you soon.” She kissed his cheeks and reached the tablet. “We will stay for a while and I need to check the Emperor for a while. Armin will also help with making lunch.”

Maverick sighed as he watched his mother leave. He leaned on the table and thought for a long time. He wasn’t against it. But are they together from the very start? He started doubting his mother.

Butler Armin always showed up in their house whenever his father was away. But his father was indeed always away and only comes home five times a month like his mother is the mistress. He happened to see Armin kneeling in front of his mother on one knee and kissing her hand as he took the assignment from her. He thought that Armin was only being loyal. He was also kind toward him and always gave birthday gifts to him and even Christmas gifts. One thing that his father couldn’t give.

He went back to the master’s bedroom and found her awake. She smiled at him.

“Babe, can you take this test?” He gave her two pregnancy test kits. “Are you feeling well now?”

“Yeah, I just need to take a nap, that’s all.” She sat up and took the tests. “I’m going to take it now.” She kissed his lips and went to the bathroom.

Maverick sat on the bed waiting for her. He suddenly felt anxious as he hoped for her to be pregnant. It was expected unless she’s not fertile or he’s not fertile. She came out and handed the two strips and he stared at both that had two red lines. They looked at each other and she squealed in excitement. She jumped into him and he caught her before she got hurt.

“Hey, don’t do that. You might get hurt.” He hugged her tightly as he exhaled slowly. His anxiety remains but he was happy that they will be a family of three. “It’s true?” He asked and stared at it.

“Yes!” She kept kissing his face and his lips. “Oh my god! We are pregnant!” She giggled.

Maverick was still too shocked even though they expected this. He reached her tummy and nodded.

“We are pregnant.” He agreed. “Mom needs to know about this.”

“I need to put some robe on to cover my molding breast.”

He watched her go to their walk-in closet and put on a robe that matches her negligee. Then, he took her to where his mother was. In the kitchen with Butler Reinheart. The two stopped talking over some certain topic and turned to them.

“Mom, I’m pregnant!” She exclaimed and showed two strips to her.

“I’m going to be a grandmother,” Vanessa said as she stared at it for a while. He saw sadness but it was just a glimpse, and then she hugged Stacey to congratulate her. “We will prepare anything you want, my dear. Just say whatever you want.”

“Don’t worry, babe. I am ready for any of your crazy requests.”

Stacey only laughed and shook her head.

“I’ll eat anything like a normal person. If I crave for something, I’ll tell you. Besides, I am not in a craving moment, my hubby.”

Maverick’s heart melted everything she cared for him like that. Not to mention that he was in a big disagreement with her parents. But it doesn’t matter. He will love her more than anyone does. He will give her everything… he could give the whole world for her.

“For now, I am good with any food.” She told him.

“Alright,” Maverick was indeed lucky to have a girl like her.

“We will settle the lunch. Don’t worry, my dear son. Why won’t you take a nap with your wife? Your weekdays weren’t always good.”

“Are you sure?”

“You can prepare us dinner later.”

“Alright,” Maverick kissed his mother and took his wife back upstairs who looked so excited to even sleep. But he wanted to cuddle with her and admire her tummy although the bump isn’t visible yet.

She put the strips beside the bed and removed her robe. She sat down and caressed her tummy.

“I thought I was going to raise our baby alone.”

Maverick was utterly confused.

“What are you talking about?”
