As Viola was reading through a book, she couldn't help but laugh on the sofa.
She didn't expect a man like Maynard to read such kind of book and be so serious
There was a knock on the door. Viola who was in tears of laughter barely stopped.
The smile on her face disappeared as soon as she saw the face was actually Elly.
"Miss Qi, I bought this crab this morning. It's big and fresh. Please try one."
Elly walked in with a plate of boiled crabs in her hand.
Her heart skipped a beat. With a gleam shining in her eyes, she took it over with a smile. "Thank you."
A dash of happiness flashed through Elly's eyes.
Viola placed the crab on the table casually, raised her head and shouted towards the upstairs, "Jennifer, there's a crab!"
"Where is it?" Jennifer rushed down from upstairs. At the sight of the crab, her eyes were lit up, running to the kitchen with the cab.
She didn't even cast a glance at her.
"You!" Pointing at Viola, Elly was too angry to say anything.
With a helpless look on her face, she explained, "I'm sorry, but I don't like crabs. I'm pregnant, so I can't eat them."
Elly shouted and pushed her.
It happened so fast that Viola fell down on the sofa.
When Maynard walked in and saw the scene, his face changed slightly. He walked over to her and helped her up. "Do you feel uncomfortable?" he asked
Feeling it carefully, she shook her head.
"Maynard, I..."
Elly hid her hands behind her back and bit her lower lip pitifully.
Maynard's face darkened. He stared at her with a meaningful look and said, "I don't want the same thing to happen a second time."
"I just can't bear it. The baby has been nagging you why don't you go to see her. Don't you recognize the baby as your daughter?" Tears welled up in her eyes.
"I will go to see her tomorrow." Maynard frowned.
Seeing that Elly stopped talking and then left unwillingly, Viola felt quite annoyed. "Mr. Chu, could you stop having so many love affairs?"
'If I really had eaten the crab...'
"As the wife of Maynard, it's you who should stop these women." Maynard cast a casual glance at her and called a family doctor.
Viola rolled her eyes and said: "Yes, you are right. All you need to do is to be handsome and rich."
Maynard agreed with her after thinking about it for a while. "You're right," he said
Clenching her fists, Viola tried hard not to beat him to death.
Thirty minutes later, a family doctor came and started to clean up after checking her baby. "Nothing is wrong with the baby, but you have to be careful next time. The baby is not in a stable condition in the first three months."
"Thanks." Maynard nodded to show his understanding.
Sitting on the sofa, she smiled and thanked them.
As soon as the family doctor left, Viola picked up a pile of parenting books and threw them onto the table. A cunning look flashed across her eyes, and she said, "Mr. Chu, I didn't expect a big man like you to read these books."
A book with different covers caught Maynard's attention. He folded the book in a few seconds and threw it back under the sofa.
"I used to take care of babies." Maynard's face fell. "Don't mess around."
Viola snorted and dragged him over. "Who told you to do this under the sofa? Are you blaming me for that? "
Maynard looked at her and nodded, which was half smile.
