the two-faced Adopted Girl Who Melted CEO's Ice-Cold Heart
Chapter 1542 - 1529: Pregnancy Makes You Silly for Three Years
Chloe logged into Weibo using Constantine’s phone and sure enough, she saw that he had publicly announced their marriage with a photo last night. The man looked refined and handsome, and the woman, pure and exquisite. They really did look like a couple.
She was surprised to see that Constantine had over ten million followers.
Most of the comments below from fans were well-wishes. After all, the couple had great chemistry on the show and there wasn’t any negativity; fans were delighted.
Seeing her looking down at Weibo without speaking, Constantine got a bit panicked. He hugged her and said softly, "I wanted to discuss it with you last night, but I couldn’t bear to wake you up. Mrs. Stewart, this is our second marriage, aiming for a lifetime together. We can’t keep it hidden from the public forever, can we?"
Chloe saw him looking so earnest and nervous, with his handsome face and deep-set features. She thought about how a proud and haughty man like Constantine would hardly show such an expression. Instantly, she reached out to hold his face, leaned in and kissed him, laughing, "Constantine, are you worried I’ll be mad? Do you think I’m a hothead?"
The girl’s lips were sweet and soft, and Constantine felt his heart melt when she kissed him. Seeing her teasing him like this, he squinted his eyes, recalling how in their first marriage he had been so tough, managing Chloe perfectly, but having made mistakes and won her back, he couldn’t afford to be tough anymore. Even seeing her frown slightly made him nervous. He finally understood why Mr. Shaw and Mr. Li turned into ’wife-submissive’ men.
Constantine looked down, feigned seriousness, nodded, and said, "It’s good you’re not angry. You’re pregnant now, and being upset isn’t good for the baby."
"Since you’re pregnant, postpone all work matters. You’re young, and now that there’s a baby, you can’t be indulging in fun. Stay at Fulham Road during this time."
Chloe’s little face instantly fell as she looked at the man putting on a patriarchal air and protested, "I want to go back to Spring Prosperity Garden. The roses there are about to bloom."
Mr. Stewart furrowed his handsome brows but said nothing.
Chloe quickly reached out, shook his arm, and said coquettishly, "I just want to occasionally stay a few days there, I promise to behave."
Constantine, savoring the girl’s coquettish plea, maintained a high posture, secretly pleased, but reluctantly nodded, saying, "Hmm, we’ll see how you behave."
Chloe instantly clasped her hands together happily, sat down obediently, happily and pleasantly.
Mr. Stewart felt that he needed to assert his authority, hmm, he absolutely couldn’t become a ’wife-submissive’ man like Mr. Li and Mr. Shaw.
In the afternoon, someone from the Shaw family came. Due to the cold weather, the old lady couldn’t travel, so she sent Mrs. Li over, who also brought a whole carload of things, including just a thick booklet on pregnancy precautions, and various nutritious foods, prenatal education supplies, and more.
"The old lady said the nutritionist will come by tomorrow and prepare a diet specifically for Mrs. Stewart’s body. These things are an extra set prepared similar to what the Young Madam has," Mrs. Li said cheerfully.
"Please thank Grandma for me." Constantine, who was currently lacking these items the most, was not polite and accepted everything without hesitation.
Mrs. Li also briefly explained to Constantine how to take care of a pregnant person, which he listened to intently, even taking notes with a pen.
From then on, Chloe was completely confined at home, becoming a big baby nurturing a little baby.
As for the supposed gaming competition, canceled!
All work, canceled!
The phone was confiscated! After Chloe’s protest, it was given back.
Constantine moved dozens of pounds of prenatal education books into the house, and with nothing to do, he would read them to Chloe and the baby in her belly.
Chloe: "..."
"He’s still just a little tadpole, he can’t understand." Chloe listened to the books so much that her ears were full of calluses. Although the man’s low, sexy voice was pleasant, listening to those prenatal books every day made her feel like an idiot.
And although she got her phone back, she had no time to play. Every day, she just glanced at the 999+ messages without time to reply, as Constantine was practically glued to her.
"He’s no longer a tadpole; he’s a little embryo." Seeing her so bored from being cooped up at home for a week, Mr. Stewart put down the book, his refined and handsome face breaking into a slight smile, and said, "Shall I take you out for some fun?"
"Really?" Chloe blinked her eyes excitedly. In these past few days, Constantine hadn’t even let her touch cold water. Thinking about the remaining nine months of pregnancy made her feel a bit overwhelmed.
"Hmm. Go change your clothes." Constantine nodded, seeing that the little girl was stifled. He figured that after a week had passed, the online buzz had died down and people had accepted their marriage. It was time to visit the Shaws for advice.
Chloe excitedly went to change into her going-out outfit. Wearing a light and warm down jacket and cotton shoes, she looked like a little penguin. In contrast, Constantine was in a dark, thin wool sweater and jacket, looking handsome and elegant—one dressed for winter, the other for spring.
Ever since Chloe got pregnant, Constantine had insisted on driving himself. After helping the little girl fasten the seatbelt, he phoned Richard Shaw.
Richard had been busy after the New Year, postponing all visits and trips, unable to be at home every day during the day.
"Grandma and Leah are at home. Take Chloe over first; I’ll be back after the meeting." Richard quickly said before hanging up.
"To the Shaw Family?" Chloe thought they were really going out for fun. Hearing they were going to the Shaw Family, she looked at her penguin-like outfit and immediately grabbed Constantine’s arm, exclaiming, "You should have said earlier, I need to change into something prettier."
Constantine chuckled, leaned in to kiss her rosy cheek, and said, "Mrs. Stewart, you look adorable like this, adorably bursting."
"Oh." Chloe, stared at by his deep gaze and praised with his low voice, felt a bit shy and sat dazedly in the car, watching him drive to the Shaw Family.
Indeed, pregnancy makes one silly for three years. Mr. Stewart felt quite content. He noted that ever since the little girl got pregnant, her personality had become more gentle and cute, as if she returned to her tamed state when she was first adopted. Sweet and obedient, she truly melted the heart of a man.
When the two arrived at the Shaw Family, they found that relatives from the Shaw’s side were present too, with seemingly some guests, happily chatting in the living room.
The old lady happily welcomed them in, happily holding Chloe’s hand, looking her up and down with excitement, while everyone in the room gathered around the two pregnant women.
Chloe noticed that Lana Shaw was there along with a young man who looked very handsome, plus some elders. She instantly understood. Did Lana have a boyfriend and bring him to meet the family at the Shaw’s?
