"Midori!" Vanessa bolted to hug Midori who had just stepped into the room .

The latter lost footing and was about to fall backward . Good thing that Vanessa was able to support her .

"Van-jie!" Dan in his state of panic had a reaching out to them pose, stopping in midair . He was so scared for his wife .

"Whaaat~ It's been long since I last saw Midori! And it's all your fault!"

After finding out everything that had happened, his sister blamed him for being the reason that Midori went away from City B .

Not minding him further, Vanessa turned to Midori, "How's the little bun?"

Midori was a bit shocked with the sudden touch on her barely-b.u.mp lower abdomen . She felt a little shy, but managed to answer, "Mornings are the worst!" Then she chuckled .

Vanessa also laughed . "It was different between my two kids . During my first pregnancy, I had morning sickness . For the second one, the retching came at night!"

Midori's eyes widened . "You already have two?" She was astonished by how Vanessa toughed it out twice .

Vanessa laughed . "Didn't my brother tell you how he bought me maternity pads from the supermarket when I had my son?"

Midori remembered the day she saw him again after several years . A pack of sanitary pads came out of his shopping bag when Manta came down from his embrace .

"I think I saw him when he did . " she laughed .

Being left out, Madeline cleared her throat . "Mrs . Zhou . " she interrupted them .

Midori was surprised . "Miss Song . Why are you . . . "

Madeline snickered . "I really just wanna go shopping at City T . I better go now . "

"Wait . Why don't we all have dinner here? Haruko-baasan is a good cook . " Midori offered .

"I appreciate your hospitality but no need, Mrs . Zhou . I'd be roaming around for City T's streetfood . " She winked and continued to walk out .

"Maiko . " Midori called out .

"Midori-san . " Maiko respectfully bowed to await orders .

"Please ask Haruko-san to prepare a feast . " Midori told her in their language .

"Hai, Midori-san . "

When the servant had gone, Vanessa sat beside Midori .

"How are you that comfortable beside your husband's fake fiancée?"

Dan chuckled . "Madeline once kissed her . "

"What?!" Vanessa shuddered . She could not believe the lady would be that shameless .

"She's not a bad person . " Midori had a gentle smile .

Vanessa had a look that said she was not that convinced .

"Van-jie . . . " Dan had a serious look .

Vanessa turned to her brother .

"You cannot make the mistake of letting Mom know . "

"I know . I know . I will soon have a nephew or niece . I need to protect Midori and the baby too . " She had a warm smile as she wrapped an arm over Midori's shoulders .

"Oh . . . can you stay? How about your baby?" Midori was worried . They arrived in City T just in time for dinner .

Vanessa chuckled . "When I came back to work, he was mix-fed with formula and my milk . He will be fine . I pumped out enough and froze the milk before coming to City S . Never knew I will be dragged here . "

"Oh, you got a breast pump?" Midori sounded excited .

"Yep . But I only started using it when I had to go back to the company . Letting the baby latch on you actually boosts your connection . It's a warm feeling, Midori . "

"Midori-san, I bought some tea . " Maiko served them their cups then left .

"Van-jie, when you gave birth, did it hurt?" Midori had a worried expression .

"Like h.e.l.l! It was excruciating! Imagine your skin being ripped apart . . . " Vanessa stopped .

She looked at the first-time mom's scared expression . Her brother was staring daggers at her for scaring his wife .

She forced a laugh . "Midori . . . it will be tough, but when you finally see your little bun, everything will be worth it . " She flashed an a.s.suring smile .

Dan came close and embraced his wife . "Don't worry . I will be with you . "

"Oh, come on! Even your brother-in-law finished my ice chips when he saw what was happening!" Vanessa had a hearty laugh .
