They were surprised.It had always been great every time she came for her check-up. The doctor had never spoken to her privately. Why…Cordelia squeezed Zephyr's hand nervously."Hubby, did something happen?""No, definitely not!" He was actually nervous too.Although he always teased his son, he was his child. A life that he made.He tried to cheer up and smiled at Cordelia. He held her hand and took her to the doctor's office.Her exclusive doctor was a kind, local lady. She was an expert in obstetrics and gynecology. She was quite experienced.She showed a kind smile as she watched them walk in."This is your report."Cordelia looked at it anxiously.The report showed that everything was good. So why did the doctor get them here?The doctor looked at Zephyr with a cryptic look."No need to worry. You and your child are great. It's just that there's something that you'll need to watch out for. I must remind you again, sir."He opened up his ears and listened attentive
Just when Zephyr was going to say something, someone suddenly passed by.Cordelia also noticed that and looked where he looked.""Isn't that Aunt Hannah?"He instinctively hugged Cordelia.Hannah came alone, and the way she walked was secretive. Looking at where she was going, she must have gone to the obstetrics and gynecology department."Why is she here too?" Cordelia frowned. "Did she follow us?"Zephyr gathered the bodyguards to protect them on the way to the car park.No matter whether she was following them or not, even if she had ill intentions, she had no advantage over them!Zephyr said in a deep voice, "Cordelia, I'll tell the butler and housekeeper to watch your food. You definitely can't eat anything that my uncle and aunt sent!""Hmm, got it." Cordelia nodded.He smirked. "So, I must protect you.""Oh… What else?""And I must sleep next to you for full protection!"…Trinity was doing the last preparations for her new movie.She kept changing the script, yet
Aurelia recognized Fredric. He was quite handsome in his suit, especially with his gold-framed glasses and his elegant demeanor with an overbearingness between his brows. It was hard for women not to fall for him.She looked down and smiled. He was no longer the clumsy, hurt man she had picked up from the street back then. He was healed now and had returned to his world of glory.He even had a beautiful and talented girlfriend with him.Meanwhile, Trinity was sincerely smiling from her heart.Aurelia was happy for him. She thought they were perfect for each other.However, when she looked at Neil again…She discarded her smile. She held her breath and dared not speak.She had never seen this man being so serious after spending some time.Aurelia carefully asked in a testing manner, "Uncle… Hehe, why did you bring me here today? Are you making me a star?"When Neil snapped back to his senses, only then he remembered a petite lady was standing next to him.He had heard that Tri
"What's wrong with you?" Trinity stared at Neil in confusion. "Don't you usually love promoting rookies?"Neil pursed his lips and said nothing.Trinity said it herself that he would usually do that!That was right. If they were in Centrolis, he was willing to promote the juniors and give opportunities to rookies.However, Aurelia was an exception!He knew that if Aurelia was recognized, it would be a piece of cake for her to be famous, given her talent and appearance.However, fame came at a price, especially in the toxic entertainment industry.She did not come from a prestigious background. Even if she did, she could not prevent people from scheming against her.Most importantly, as soon as an actress became famous, she could not prevent the gossip…When Neil thought that there might be gossip revolving around her and other actors…Neil's face was cold as he remained silent.He clenched his fists. Where did this strange feeling come from exactly?He could not figure that
"You've misunderstood." Neil glanced at her coldly. "I don't plan to be in this movie at the moment.""Only 'at the moment', right?" Ava said with a smile, "I'll get someone to contact your agent! You might want to be in the movie when you see the salary!"Neil looked terrible.He had heard from Cordelia that Zephyr had an irritating cousin. He had advised her to be good to his family members since she was married into the family. He had also told her not to behave like the princess of the Irwins from Southeast Aciatic.He was eager to take his words back and eat them now!Not only was Ava irritating, but she was also full of herself.It was no wonder that she remained unpopular despite being in the Bakers for years!Ava looked proud, "Mr. Harris, you're my cousin-in-law's cousin, right? Ha, Zephyr is my cousin. We're considered family too!"Neil had no expression on his face as he said coldly, "Are you done?""Don't go yet!" She went forward and squeezed Aurelia out. She too
Just when Zephyr was thinking to himself, a voice suddenly echoed like thunder."You unfilial son!""Mom?""What are you doing? Why aren't you holding Cordelia!?" Janine ran over quickly and pushed him away. She held Cordelia's arm while scolding her son."She's due soon and must be extra careful when she walks! You got your wife to chase after you behind you while you walk in front like a boss? You're useless!"Zephyr was rendered speechless.What did it feel like for one's biological mother to become the stepmother? What did it feel like to lose the status of being the favorite one? Please follow Mr. Z's live stream. We will explain it to you in detail!"Cordelia, watch where you walk… Hehe. Isn't the courtyard clean now? I got people to clean it yesterday. There isn't even a stone here!"That's right, left foot first… Watch your step!"You're doing so good, Cordelia!"Zephyr was annoyed.No matter what, his mother loved his wife more and more. Meanwhile, everyone in the f
Hannah picked up the bowl on the table directly as she spoke.As she was about to eat the dessert, she heard Cordelia say with a chuckle, "It's not that I can't bear to let you eat it, but you shouldn't eat this when you're pregnant."Hannah froze as she held the spoon."This is imported from Southeast Aciatic. There are many expensive herbs in it. But it's not suitable for pregnant ladies. You might have a miscarriage if you eat it."Janine scoffed, "Sister-in-law, Cordelia's parents sent this for my father. You sure are eager to take it for yourself."Hannah was stunned. She put down the spoon and pushed the dessert away.Franklin did not have the patience to stay. He stood up with his cane and went back to the house."Eh? What's wrong with dad!?" Noah asked foolishly. "Sister, is dad upset?"Janine rolled her eyes at him."It's okay, wifey!" Noah looked at Hannah and said with a smile. "I'll get them to make you anything you like! All of the chefs are here. I'll—""Noah, y
"What if she has thought about that?""Hmm… It proves that she wants this child for something else!" answered Cordelia. "First of all, she's not young. She probably shouldn't be having babies with her condition. Secondly, do you remember what she told us?"Zephyr recalled that during the Baker Group's meeting, Hannah had attended as Prestige Agency's representative.She had been bitter in the meeting, saying that some people had been stalking her. She had been upset.Of course, she had been talking about Zephyr's men.Zephyr came to a realization. "Which means she'd accuse us if something happened to her child!"Cordelia nodded with all seriousness.If Hannah really were to give birth to the child, the risk would be too great. After all, the child had Chuck's bloodline. She would die if that was uncovered.Moreover, she was not young. There was a higher chance for her to suffer complications, and the child might be disabled.She was not stupid. It was impossible that she would
