Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 941

All Tian Qifeng had to do was make sure that Jiang Mohan would not look for her for a month.

The latter stood up from his seat and gave it a thought. In the end, he agreed to it.

Knowing that Zong Yanxi was alive was the best news he could receive. He did not want to give her any more trouble because of his own emotion.

Yet, a one-month wait was torturous for him. Minutes felt like hours, and days felt like months.

Throughout most of that time, Jiang Mohan would be in the office until almost midnight.

He kept himself busy to the point where he would handle every big and small matter on his own.

The scandal had brought down the valuation of the company and negatively impacted the staff’s morale. The silver lining was that the way Jiang Mohan stayed in the office and worked his head off helped him to regain the trust of his staff.

Everyone thought Jiang Mohan was doing his best to save the company, but the truth was that he just couldn’t fall asleep at night.

As the one-month wait was coming to an end, Jiang Mohan returned to his villa. It had been a few days since he had showered or changed, so he desperately needed to clean himself up at the moment.

It was perhaps because he now knew that Zong Yanxi was alive that he could bring himself to enter the villa again. After all, this was the place where they spent a few years of their married life.

After showering, he went to get his clothes from the wardrobe. As he opened the doors, he noticed a piece of paper sitting quietly inside. His curiosity got the better of him and he reached for it.

It was an ultrasound report, dated back to the day he requested a divorce.

His eyes widened as he carefully read every word on it.

The report belonged to Zong Yanxi, and it clearly mentioned that she was seven weeks pregnant.

Jiang Mohan held the paper with his shaky hands, unable to believe what he had read. He stood there, stunned and finding it hard to breathe.

She’s pregnant?

He was shocked and felt uneasy. Did she still want the baby after what I’ve done to her?

His heart ached as he reached for the bed to support his trembling body. He tightly grasped his chest, where the pain remained.

Why? Why didn’t she tell me? If she did… I would never have…

Suddenly, his phone on the bedside table vibrated.

Jiang Mohan ignored the call and continued to stand completely still, drowned in regret and pain.

An hour later, someone rang his doorbell. Jiang Mohan still did not have any intention to move.

The doorbell rang again, and again, and again.

The call an hour ago was from Nan Cheng. As he received no response, the assistant rushed to the office, only to learn that Jiang Mohan had left.
