The conversation went round and round, and it came back again.

Maximo was choked by Jessica again, and the smile on his face couldn't be maintained.

He raised his hand, placed it by his mouth, and coughed a few times.

Jessica politely asked, "Sir, are you alright?"

He shook his head and then glanced at his assistant beside him. Suddenly, Finley took out a box and placed it in front of Jessica. "Ms. Hall, our Mr. Sheppard came today, but it doesn't really mean anything. However, you are after all the granddaughter-in-law of our Sheppard family. This is something that Mrs. Sheppard instructed to be passed on to her granddaughter-in-law before she passed away. The old gentleman came today just to give this to you, which belongs to Ms. Hall."

    Terry reacted quickly and immediately embraced her in his arms.Although Jessica didn't say a word, her head instinctively leaned towards his chest, and the hand being held tightened instinctively.However, Jessica soon realized as well.When Hannah was speaking, she wasn't scared, but now, she wants to scare Terry and ends up scaring herself.Oops, the old horse stumbled.Just as I regained consciousness, I heard a deep laughter from a man, "Did I scare you?"Jessica looked up at him, feeling a bit embarrassed. She stepped out of his embrace without answering his question.I turned my gaze away and looked across the pedestrian path, where a cat was crouching under the streetlamp, licking its paws.Obviously, what just flew down was not something strange, but a mischievous cat.Terry also saw the cat, and he made a soft sound of admiration, saying, "It was a cat, and quite cute."He paused for a moment and said, "

    Jessica stood at the staircase, neither moving forward nor backward, so she reluctantly called out, "Mom."May saw her daughter and instantly knew what was going on.She glared at Jessica angrily and said, "How old are you? Why are you still..."Why did you do such a childish thing?Can't you let it go after just one night?But this also indirectly indicates that their daughter and future son-in-law had a good relationship."Wake up, wash up, go downstairs to have some breakfast, and then go back to sleep. Skipping breakfast is not good for the stomach."Jessica's face was burning. She was already twenty-eight years old, and she never expected to be caught in such a situation one day.And it wasn't Terry who came to find her, but she who went to Terry's room to sleep."I knew it, Mom. I went to freshen up first!""Go quickly, it's a bit cold today, wear thicker clothes.""I knew, Mom!"Jessica tighte

Her eyes couldn't open, and she kept yawning as she opened the door.Georgia was very puzzled when she saw her like this, "I let you go to bed before ten o'clock last night, why are you still so tired?"Hannah raised her hand and yawned, feeling guilty: "I went to bed after 11 o'clock, and I even woke up in the middle."Georgia sighed and said, "Go wash your face and brush your teeth, the makeup artist has arrived."Hannah was pushed into the bathroom and stood in front of the mirror for a while before she started washing her face and brushing her teeth.Cold water splashed onto her face, and after coming out of the bathroom, she felt much more awake, but the drowsiness was still irresistible.The makeup artist and cameraman had arrived, and they were ju

    Hannah was held by him for a while and felt a bit hot. Unable to resist, she pushed him lightly and said, "It's a bit hot."Upon hearing her words, Kendall placed her back on the bed and asked, "Did you tell Jaylen and them?"Hannah shook her head and said, "No, you're the dad, so of course I have to tell you first."She said, pausing for a moment, "I will tell them at dinner tonight.""Okay."Kendall looked down at her belly, but this month she didn't show at all, and there was nothing to see.He looked for a while and then said, "Go to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow."Hannah thought the same way, she didn't even know how long she had been pregnant.If we count from the last menstrual period, she has been pregnant for at least two months.In the past two months, she didn't feel anything at all.Hannah nodded and suddenly felt a bit tired, opening her mouth and yawning.Seeing her like this, Kendall g

    Kendall glanced at her sideways and said, "Isn't it obvious?"Hannah, of course, knew that he was looking at her, but she just wanted to ask and confirm."This photographer was quite good at taking photos."Kendall's gaze was quite affectionate.She looked at the photo for a while again, and then happily put it down and looked at other photos.However, there was only one photo that was captured so well, the rest were mostly intentionally posed and the outcome was good.Hannah had been flipping through hundreds of photos for over three hours when Kendall finally took the album from her hands and forcefully carried her away, saying, "Go take a shower, if you don't shower now, you won't be able to wake up tomorrow."Hannah hooked her arm around his neck, raised an eyebrow, and looked at him.

Hannah also felt a bit cold.She drank a few sips of water, then she put down the cup and went upstairs to change clothes and take a shower.Hannah was both hungry and cold, so she took a hot shower and then went downstairs.Kendall just came in with an umbrella, carrying takeout. "You go ahead and eat, I'll go upstairs and change into a fresh set of clothes."Hannah walked over to the dining table and sat down, watching him take out and arrange everything.Kendall placed the chicken soup in front of her, "Drink the soup first, so it doesn't get cold
