Ethan immediately went upstairs to go to his older brother’s room. An hour had passed, but his older brother hadn’t come down to the room yet. He felt so sorry for his wife that had been waiting in the living room.
She is pregnant and can be irritated easily, so it shouldn’t have been waiting there for too long for him. Even he was upset with his older brother. For him, it’s very selfish. His older brother wanted Alyssa will always be the one to understand him in everything.

"Ethan, I'm here; what's wrong?" until I came to the living room.When Ethan saw me, he immediately hugged me tightly.

I asked him wondered why he was so emotional today?"Nothing, I just thought you were gone," he said."Why would I be lost? Didn't I say I'll wait?"

He had to decide which of the two he should choose.He knew it wasn't easy because one of them would get hurt, but it would be better for him to do it today before everyone gets caught, but before he could make his plan for today, he called his girlfriend Elena again to let her know that he would accompany her to the hospital. He lifted his right hand, holding his cellphone near to his face just as he could see the letters on it. He redialed his girlfriend's number and started calling it. "Ring, ring, ring…!"

He smiled at her immensely, but the smile he returned to her was unreal. He was not in the mood to smile at her back, but it forced him to smile at it so that it would not get angry.When they were inside the condo unit, Leonard made Elena sit on the sofa. Then he went to her kitchen to get a glass of water and gave it to her.“Thanks, babe,” she said to him with a smile.Leonard replied with a smile.

CHAPTER 41: HIS SECRETARY'S BETRAYALAlyssa and Ethan have returned to their home. Ethan immediately informed his grandfather of the good news. It thrilled the old Master Guang to know that the baby in Alyssa’s womb is in good condition. Especially when he found out that Alyssa was pregnant with a boy, so Master Guang had a shower party to reveal.Out of excitement, Master Guang immediately called his daughter Jing Chin (the aunt of Leonard and Ethan). He was standing in the living room. “Jing, my dear daughter, please come here for a moment. I have something important to announce to you.”Leonard’s aunt immediately approached her father. “Yes, dad, what do you want to announce?” she asked Master Guang.“Finally, Alyssa found out the gender of her pregnancy, and it’s a boy.

You are something.” Leonard smirks at it.“Won’t you even let me into your office first, before you interrogate me?” the man asked.Leonard cleared the way.

What now? Have you ever called his wife to see me? Did you tell her I was pregnant and Leonard was the father? Is she going to come here, or maybe you're just fooling me and waiting for her for nothing? I’m a busy person! I don’t want my time to be wasted!” she said to the person she was talking to on the phone.“Relax, my dear. Don’t worry, everything is in line with my plans, and she's on her way there.” The person she was talking to on the other line answered. Then she immediately dropped the c
