Chapter 283 Visiting The Mu Family
Moreover, Kevin was sure that Anne liked him back, which was the best discovery he had made in recent days.
"Mr. Kevin, the midnight snack is..." Spotting Kevin, the servant wanted to tell him that the midnight snack was ready, but Kevin held up a finger to his lips, gesturing to her to keep quiet.
The servant immediately understood what Kevin meant and went to carry on with her business.
Kevin carried Anne all the way back to his room. After walking past the door, which was opened by a servant, he gently set her down on the bed.
As soon as she touched the soft bed, Anne turned over to find a comfortable position to sleep in, but no matter how she tossed and turned, she felt uncomfortable. Kevin reached out to move the strands of hair on her forehead away, but in her sleep, Anne put her hand over his and pressed it to her forehead.
Kevin smiled again when he saw Anne turning over on the bed. In the past, Anne was a light sleeper and was sensitive to even the slightest touch or noise, so she would always wake up.
Now, she was like a sleepy cat. It was said that one wouldn't sleep deeply if they didn't feel a sense of security. Kevin thought that Anne must feel a sense of security now with him around, and he couldn't help but be proud of himself. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
"Sleep well. I will always be with you," he said in a doting voice, stroking her face. He didn't know whether Anne could hear him or not, but after a while, she stopped turning over and finally fell into a deep slumber.
Kevin lowered his eyes to her bulging belly and carefully put his hand on it. As soon as he touched it, he felt a slight movement in her belly, as if the little guy inside was doing some exercise.
Kevin was fascinated with the magical fetal movement, but he was worried that the baby's movements would wake Anne up. He put his ear close to Anne's belly and listened. It seemed that the baby was still moving.
At this time, he looked straight at Anne's belly and whispered, "Little guy, you can exercise later. Don't wake up your mom. If you don't listen to me now, I will beat you when you are born."
He spoke in a childish way, but to his surprise, his words seemed to work, because the little guy really stopped moving.
Relieved that there was no more disturbance to Anne, Kevin finally lay down next to her and fell asleep.
A month later.
Summer time had arrived. The trees on either side of the road branched out far and wide, forming a canopy over the road, through which the sunlight shone. Kevin was accompanying Anne to visit the Mu Family.
Since Anne was pregnant, Kevin drove carefully, afraid of causing her even the slightest discomfort.
However, Anne was still reeling with excitement from the news that Rose was pregnant. From time to time, she urged Kevin, "Hurry up. Rose must be anxiously waiting for us!"
Kevin was helpless, but he didn't dare to show his dissatisfaction. He just said gently, "I am already driving fast. You have to be careful for the baby's sake, or you'll make Rose worry about you."
"Mark is awesome. Rose got pregnant in just over a month. It seems that the two of them have a good relationship." Since she had been doted on by Kevin for a long time, Anne spoke much more freely than before.
Hearing this, Kevin frowned and said with a hint of annoyance, "How do you know? Maybe he needed to work hard day and night to get that baby. He is not as awesome as I am. I've already gotten you pregnant with a second baby,"
he said, raising his eyebrows proudly.
"Day and night? Kevin, who taught you to speak like this? How lewd!" Anne said in a scandalized voice, blushing.
At this moment, Kevin was at a loss whether to laugh or to cry. He felt a little wronged.
"But Anne, you're the one who said lewd words first. Think about it," Kevin reminded her.
After carefully recalling the conversation, Anne blushed even more. It seemed that Kevin was right. But she would never admit it.
A few seconds later, she said confidently, "I'm not the one who said lewd things first. You twisted my words and brought the topic to this. And you didn't forget to praise yourself while you were being lewd."
As she spoke, she rolled her eyes.
Kevin didn't feel embarrassed to hear this at all. He laughed and said, "So what? Aren't we supposed to be honest with each other? How about we have another baby after this one is born?"
Although it was a joke, there was a hint of expectation in Kevin's voice. However, Anne rolled her eyes again and said, "Another baby? Do you think I'm a pig? I won't have another baby after my daughter is born."
But Kevin snickered and said, "It's not necessarily a daughter."
"Shut up. It must be a daughter. I've already come up with a name for her. When my daughter is born, her name will be Consuela."
It had taken her a long time to come up with a name, so she wouldn't allow Kevin to talk nonsense.
"It's up to you," Kevin said affectionately. After that, he turned his focus on driving. Five minutes later, they arrived at the Mu Family's house.
The door of the Mu Family's house was open, revealing the living room. The moment Anne got out of the car, Rose ran out of the house with a bright smile.
"Anne, you are here!" Rose eagerly held Anne's hand.
When she saw that Anne's belly had become huge, she frowned slightly and said, "Anne, you must be careful now."
She always felt that Anne couldn't even walk steadily with such a big belly.
"I think you're the one who should be careful. The doctor has said that you must be careful until three months of pregnancy. Look at Anne, she is so quiet. But you always run around!" Although Mark seemed to be joking, there was a note of concern in his voice.
Hearing his reproachful tone, Anne smiled. In her eyes, the couple in front of her were really happy.
However, Kevin looked at Anne and frowned. Was Anne quiet? Maybe, in the daytime. But when she went to bed at night, she always turned over this way and that way. He was so scared that even in his dreams he was protecting her baby.
"Oh, don't talk about me anymore. Didn't you say that you wanted me to learn more about miscarriage prevention from Anne?" After Rose changed the topic, Mark finally stopped nagging. The house became quiet.
Driving on the highway, Ryan turned on the headlights to illuminate the road in front of him.
It was a high-speed road with few vehicles, so he drove very slowly. Outside the window, it was a cold night, and there were a lot of stars splattered across the night sky.
Ryan frowned at the scenery. Recently, after hearing the news about the love between Kevin and Anne, he had become even more jealous.
Every time he thought about how Kevin could hold Anne in his arms, a strong hatred would burst out in his heart.
Without Kevin, Anne would be his. Thinking of this, Ryan suddenly sped up on the highway. After venting his anger, he braked sharply and stopped at the side of the road.
"I must get you, Anne," he said fiercely to himself after a long time.
As he spoke those words, he held the steering wheel tightly, as if he was going to break it in half with his bare hands.
In the AN Group.
The spacious hall was filled with simple but modern pillars. The receptionists at the front desk of the company were prepared in advance. When Kevin came in, they greeted him at the same time.
"Mr. Kevin, have you had breakfast? I prepared some food for you." Molly Mi was the new receptionist, and she didn't know much about Kevin. Since he was not married, she thought that he was single.
"No, thanks." Kevin didn't even look at Molly Mi as he walked past her.
Molly Mi was a little disappointed, but she gave up completely after listening to what a fellow employee had to say.
"Why did you prepare breakfast for Mr. Kevin? Are you trying to win his heart?" Loretta Liu said coldly.
Molly Mi was embarrassed that she had been exposed, and she froze. "Nothing like that. I just casually packed some extra food."
However, Loretta Liu took out a sandwich from the breakfast bag, took a big bite, and said, "Mr. Kevin is indeed very excellent, but I advise any woman who wants to be his wife not to think too much. No one stands a chance."
After saying that, Loretta Liu took another bite.
At this time, Molly Mi shifted closer to her and asked curiously, "Why?"
"Because Mr. Kevin already has a child!" Loretta Liu rolled her eyes. The woman in front of her was really new. She didn't even know the hottest news at the company.
"Then...is it an illegitimate child?" Molly Mi asked in confusion.
If that was the case, she still had a chance. Thinking of this, she felt a tinge of hope again.
After all, she was very beautiful. Her beauty was pure and natural, without any plastic surgery. Therefore, it was also the capital of her confidence.
However, what Loretta Liu said next completely dispelled all of her hopes and dreams.
"Mr. Kevin's girlfriend is the former vice-president of this company. She has done a lot for this company. She is a strong woman."
"Ah, it t turns out that she is a strong woman," Molly Mi said meaningfully. In the novels she had read in the past, most of the CEOs would fall for soft girls like her.
"She's cold and strong only when she is at work. Mr. Kevin loves her very much. Besides, no matter how strong a woman is, she will soften after being spoiled by her lover. Moreover, Mr. Kevin is famous for being faithful. Once, the two of them had a conflict, and it was Mr. Kevin who kept chasing her and trying to win her back," Loretta Liu explained.
Then, she lowered her voice and asked mysteriously, "By the way, do you know the new project of rebuilding the old district in our company?"
At this time, Molly Mi said with a frown, "Of course I know. Everyone in the company says that this is a failure in Mr. Kevin's business."
However, Loretta Liu looked at her with disdain. "You don't know."
Hearing this, Molly Mi frowned. Loretta Liu continued, "Mr. Kevin is rich. Even if a project fails, it's not a pity. Besides, he has already said that it's his private property. In fact, it's for his girlfriend, because that's where she lived when she was a child."
Suddenly, the look in Molly Mi's eyes changed. She was both envious and disappointed. She wanted to know what kind of woman could win Kevin's heart.
"What kind of person is she?" Molly Mi asked in confusion.
All of a sudden, Loretta Liu remembered that when Anne was still working here, they had all taken a group photo at the annual meeting of the company. She still had that photo on her phone.
"Wait a minute. I have some photos."
With that, Loretta Liu took out her phone and found the group photo with Anne.
