Stella was taken aback when she saw that photo.
Stella asked: [What is he doing}
Xenia replied: [He's cooking porridge for me. I told him I was having very bad morning sickness and had no appetite. He got so nervous and worried that the baby would be affected if I didn't eat and came with a bunch of things. I said that I wanted to eat the porridge he cooked, so he started learning and cooking it on the spot.]
Stella was dumbfounded.
She had no idea whether to laugh or mock Albert.
Albert had never set foot in the kitchen before. He used to score very well in exams since he was young, and although he came from a village, his family doted on him. His family had several plantation fields, and his parents always asked his little brothers to do all the farming work, never letting him break a sweat.
So, despite coming from a small town, Albert was treated like an heir of a wealthy family who got to enjoy all the best resources his family could offer him with.
He probably did not even know how to hold a scythe properly, let alone cook.
Not only had he not cooked before, but he also had his own principles. When Stella used to argue with him when she was young, she always heard him say that women should stay at home to care for the family while men should earn money. He even told Stella that her future husband would feel inferior and disrespected if she were to take the lead in everything.
It was strange that a misogynist like him would suddenly start cooking.
However, his actions started to make sense when the motivation behind him doing all that was because he knew that Xenia was pregnant with his son.
Stella said: [He didn't suspect anything about the report, right?]
Xenia replied: [Not at all. He wouldn't stop staring at my stomach in these two days. He even said my stomach looked a little pointy, so it must be a boy. I guess he has already imagined what the child will look like.]
Stella: [Hylda is a wicked person. She will probably take action when she finds out you're having a baby boy. So look after yourself and call me immediately if anything goes wrong,]
Xenia read Stella's message and sent her another reply: (She probably already knew it. Sophia already came to harass me, but she was stopped and warned by Albert's bodyguards. I'm sure she'll tell Hylda about it since she can't do anything to me.]
Stella thought for a while and replied: [Post the photo you took on your Twitter and make it visible to only people working in Albert's company,]
