My Reincarnated Wife Is A Little Too Sweet novel Chapter 80

Evelyne wanted to visit her daughter at the hospital but Amanda declined. Her condition was getting better and she will be discharged in two days time.

"Mom, you don't have to come. It was nothing serious. I just fainted at work because I was exhausted." Amanda said.

She could not tell her mother the truth for the fear that she will start to overthink and let her thoughts run wild.

"You need to take care of yourself. You always come home late and leave early. I don't get to see you for some days and yet we live under the same roof. How can I not be worried?" Evelyne reprimanded her. Amanda was touched. In her past life, her mother did not even get the chance to say such words. Although it felt like she was being scolded, Amanda did not feel angry. In return, she was happy.

"I know mom, I also have some good news. I will tell you when I come home." Amanda said.

"Just say it already, mom can't wait to hear." 

"No I'm not saying. You will have to wait for me to come home." Amanda said, was she trying to act cute with her mother.

"Then I will just call Richard directly." Evelyne feigned anger.

"No mom don't. Richard doesn't know yet." Amanda stopped her mom. Richard will never hide anything from her mother.

She was worried that he will tell her, that is why she warned him earlier, or else her mom would not be in the dark until now.

"Are you pregnant?" Evelyne asked.

Apart from this, she could not think about anything else. If it was work, Richard handled everything, so there is nothing he cannot know concerning Amanda's work.

When she heard her mother had guessed right, Amanda was so shocked that she choked on the water she was drinking.

Richard happened to enter at that time, seeing her coughing profusely, he immediately went to pat her on the back.

"Why are you careless even when you are drinking water?" Richard did not know what to do with his woman. She will be the death of him one day.

Hearing Richard's voice, Evelyne suddenly called out his name over the phone, and since he was bending his body towards Amanda, he heard her.

He took the phone from Amanda's hand and put it on his ear. Amanda on the other hand was still coughing madly. Her eyes had already turned moist.

Looking at her disheveled state, Richard's eyes darkened.

"Mom..." Richard averted his gaze and called out softly.

"Richard is Amanda pregnant?" Evelyne went direct to point.

Richard was momentarily shocked. Amanda had told him not to tell her mother, how did she know.

"I guessed it. Amanda was being too mysterious so I just made a bold guess." Evelyne explained when she heard nothing from the other end of the phone.

"Yes mom, Amanda is pregnant." Richard affirmed.

"Wow that is great. How long?"

"Eight weeks." 

"I'm so happy. I can't believe I'm going to be grandmother. Is that why she fainted at work? Sigh.. my daughter is so muddle headed, she did not even know that she was pregnant and yet she kept working." Evelyne lamented although you could hear the joy in her voice.

"Come home soon. Don't stay at the hospital for too long. It is not a health place and it also has a lot of negative energy which is not good for the baby." Evelyne was delighted.

"I will start to brew some nutritious soup for her. Come home, come home!"

"Yes mom."

Richard was used to calling Evelyne mom ever since, even before he proposed to Amanda.

Amanda felt like it was awkward at the start, but the man was comfortable with it so she just let him be.

....

Today was Mandy's trial.

Her mom and dad woke up early to rush to the court house.
