Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage novel Chapter 22

That’s an awful metaphor.

Jenny shivers convulsively, looking at her own belly after recalling the pregnant woman in the hospital. “Really...” She can’t think of what else to say, faking a smile at Mrs. Lu.

“Listen, things will get particularly harder after you get pregnant. You must always be careful!” Mrs. Lu moves Jenny to the sofa carefully in case she would crash into something.

“Jenny, you live here from today!” Mrs. Lu says in such a firm tone that Jenny has no chance to negotiate. “Don’t work anymore. I’ll ask maids to take good care of you.”

“Ah? No, I don’t...” Jenny gets a bit anxious, worrying Mrs. Lu would really force her to stay.

Before she is about to say something, Mrs. Lu pats on her hand and says, smiling, “Don’t worry. I promise Luke will spend more time with you, taking you out for a walk and giving prenatal education.”

“The bone soup.” Then Mrs. Lu hurries to the kitchen.

Jenny says nothing.

Mrs. Lu keeps Jenny in Lu’s.

Four capable maids are appointed to take care of her daily routine. The most prestigious wedding dress and jewelry designers are invited. If Jenny likes none of their designs, Mrs. Lu will ask Luke to invite other designers.

Yet Mrs. Lu’s considerate care overwhelms Jenny, leaving her in panic all the time.

How could she marry Luke, a man having nothing to do with her?

Jenny brainstorms every possible way to get away all the time. She disguised herself as different characters, a maid going out to throw the rubbish and an assistant cook going out to purchase food. But Mrs. Lu managed to stop her every time she was about to leave.
