A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 357

The servant gives a small box to Evelyn. "When I was cleaning their room, I found this small box under the bed. It seems to be a medicine box."

There's English on the box and the servant can't understand. But she can smell that it is a medicine box.

Evelyn holds the small box. The English on the box is quite easy to her. After glancing at it, Evelyn is surprised. “This is folic acid!"

The servant asks curiously, "Madam, what kind of medicine is it?"

"Folic acid, this is for the women who are pregnant. No wonder Jessie was so embarrassed when I talked about this with her in the morning. So she is pregnant!"

Evelyn feels both excited and angry.

Why doesn't Jessie tell her that she's pregnant?

If the servant hasn't happened to find this box by cleaning, she believes that Jessie and Leigh would hide it from her for a long time!

Evelyn immediately calls Leigh.

"Mom, I'm going to attend a meeting!" Leigh answers quickly, "Why are you calling me?"

"Brat, are you still pretending?" Evelyn says angrily, but her tone is filled with joy. "Why didn’t you tell me that your wife is pregnant?"

"What are you talking about?" Leigh is stunned for a moment.

After Evelyn repeats what she says, he finally figures it out. "Really? Is she pregnant?"

"You two sleep in the same room every day. Don't you know your wife is pregnant?"

"I really didn't know. She didn't tell me."

"That means you don't care about her." Evelyn says with disdain. "Jessie is such a good girl. How can she fall love with you? You are so careless and playful!"

"Mom, I'm your dear son!" Leigh complains.

He's dazed by the news that Jessie is pregnant and almost faints. "I'll go back now and pick her up at the Smith Group. I'm going to be a father."

On the other side, Evelyn is very calm now. She says, "I think Jessie wants to give you a birthday surprise since she hides it from you. If you go pick her up and expose the fact, you're wasting her efforts. Stay in the company and pick her up after work. Don't give yourself away, okay?"

Leigh feels that his mother is correct. "Then Mom, I'm going to attend the meeting?"

"Just go. Meeting, meeting and meeting. You only care about meeting!"

"..."

Evelyn hangs up the phone and Leigh is speechless. He thinks to himself, 'Didn't you tell me to wait and not to take actions? '

Knowing that he is going to be a father, Leigh is full of energy. He wishes that the afternoon can come soon so that he can go back and pick up Jessie. And Jessie can tell him the surprising news at his birthday.

Leigh has people buy more than ten kilograms of candies and give them to the employees. During the meeting, he can't even control the smile on his face, which makes the executives confused.

When the candies are sent to the conference room, an executive asks tentatively, "Mr. Leigh, are you getting married?"

Leigh raises his eyebrows and says, "No."

Another one asks, "Then why are you ...."

Leigh is quite happy. "Because my wife is pregnant. And I want to share the happiness with you."

Everyone is dumbfounded.

Damn! Why don't they know that Mr. Leigh has a wife?

Previously, there is a young woman who often comes to the company and gives the lunch to Mr. Leigh. However, she wears a mask and no one knows what she looks like or what her name is. Could she be Mr. Leigh' wife?

"Mr. Leigh, congratulations!"

Leigh nods. He glances at the unmarried executives and says, "You guys don't pay all your attention on work. If you have time, you can go to some blind dates or something. You're already 27 or even 28, and you haven't got married. Isn't it embarrassing? My child will be born in a few months."
