Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)
Chapter 914

Ever since the matter with the Tags Family and apne a retest, and fayden returned safely, Keira through all the day was behind them.

But now, with Hayden's endden remark, una crept back into her

It wasn't fear. It was something else. Now that she had a baby on the way, she just wanted to get through each day peacefully, ensuring her child could come into this world happy and safe. Through the rearview mirror, she saw the car talling them. It was a large SUV-Imposing and sturdy.

"If you were to collide with them head-on now, what are our chances of winning?" she asked Hayden.

He let out a soft chuckle. "What do you think?"

To make getting in and out of the car more convenient and comfortable for Keira, Hayden had chosen to drive a corporate vehicle. In terms of size, the car behind them was far larger than theirs. "Even if we could win a collision, we won't do it," Hayden said, taking her hand in his." Don't worry. Once we reach the next stop, I'll let you out to pretend to shop while I have a little chat with them." "No way. How could I just leave you behind?" Keira protested.

Hayden didn't respond, only gazing at her with those deep, penetrating eyes that made her heart flutter slightly.

"Fine. Then stay in the car, don't move, and I'll lock the doors. I'll step out and have a word with them," he said, catching her completely off guard.

"Have a word? That polite?"

Hayden smiled. "What else? Ram into their car or grab a stick to start a fight?"

His hand gently brushed her face. "Relax. They wouldn't dare do anything to us in broad daylight."

"Then why lock me in the car? Afraid they'll take me away the moment you leave?" Keira shot back, unconvinced.

"They say pregnancy makes a woman scatterbrained, but my wife is different. Not only are you not scatterbrained, but you're sharp as ever," Hayden said, his expression full of indulgence. Keira glanced at the rearview mirror again. "What do you think? Are they people you didn't

completely take care of?"

Hayden's gaze darkened. "No. If I were to wipe them out, there wouldn't be any loose ends.

She trusted him. If this wasn't revenge, then they weren't after Hayden-they were after

her.

While it could've been someone from the Hart family, those people usually approached her through Kylian. There was no need for them to resort to tailing her like this.

"They're after me? But I haven't offended anyone recently. Could it have something to do with Sasha's visit?" she asked, growing more and more frustrated.

All Keira wanted was a peaceful life. But as they said, the tree might want to stay still, but the wind never stopped.

"I'm not sure, but don't panic yet," Hayden said, steering the wheel with one hand while maintaining a steady drive.

"We'll pretend we haven't noticed and quietly observe them," he added.

Keira agreed with his approach. To maintain the pretense, Hayden took her on a detour. They stopped at a few places, including a supermarket to pick up some gifts. After all, it wouldn't be polite to visit Aaron empty-handed, especially since he was injured. They also browsed a baby store. Hayden picked out an adorable little outfit and bought it without hesitation. He even remarked on how cute baby clothes were and promised to bring her back for more shopping later.

Despite the detour, when they headed back toward Lena's place, the car was still following them.

"How long are they planning to keep this up?" Keira muttered, frustrated and uneasy.

"I don't know. Let them follow. I've arranged for someone to take care of it," Hayden said, his patience clearly running thin.

Keira didn't object. This was something that needed to be resolved and understood.
