Words I Was Afraid To Hear Chapter 120

Manta was hiding in his uncle's coat as he was secretly squeezed in between the two adults .

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they arrived at the house without alerting the police .

The boy had a wide grin of satisfaction as he left his shoes in the getabako .

Dan followed his wife into her room . Soon, their m.u.f.fled argument was heard from the room .

"What's your problem?! I'm just eating with a friend! We even brought Manta along!"

"You're aware that to him, you're not just a friend . " Dan did not raise his voice . He knew it was best not to clash with his hormonal wife . Though he is still upset about seeing her with Takagi Ryuuji, he did not want to aggravate her emotions .

"I'm not doing anything wrong!" She glared at him .

"I know . I'm not accusing you . "

"Oh really . . . then why are you telling me not to do it again?!"

"Because it hurts to see you with him . " He played the pity card .

Midori's fuming head cooled like it was drenched with water . She forgot to consider how he felt . She thought the action was harmless because it was just eating . She became quiet . She thought about how she could have revealed her pregnancy if Ryuuji insisted that she eats the sus.h.i.+ .

Dan's arrival had good timing actually .

"Sorry . " she whispered .

Dan pursed his lips into a subtle smile . His arm snaked around her waist as he pulled her closer .

"Hey! Why you . . !" Her next words were drowned by a warm kiss .

Just when they were starting to react with each other, a voice sounded behind the door .

"Midori-san, dinner is ready . "

Dan let out a huge sigh as he looked down on his little buddy who was ready for action .

Midori cleared her throat and inched away from him .

"Let's eat . I'm starving . "

Dan eyed her with a disappointed expression .

She chuckled . "I need to eat for two now . Let's go . "

He looked down on her little b.u.mp and smiled . He took her hand and they walked towards the kitchen .

______________

Aoi Xiu was reading the report regarding her son's incident at home while waiting for dinner to be ready .

As she pondered on Ming Xiaoyu's name again, memories rushed through her head .

.

Weeks before Midori was born, an unknown lady came into their house, a newborn in her arms, requesting for a dialogue with her husband .

It was in the middle of the day . Her son was in school and Xiu Jin is at work . She was sent for rest due to her delivery drawing near .

Aoi Xiu looked at the lady sitting on the sofa from upstairs .

Ming Xiaoyu lovingly cuddled her sleeping daughter while waiting for Xiu Jin to arrive .

The lady of the house was afraid . Afraid to hear the words from this suspicious woman .

Aoi Xiu held her large abdomen, her eyes beginning to water, but she held it in .

Usually, she could not tolerate standing for too long because of the weight she was bearing . However, she stood behind the railing, dazed, figuring out other explanations in her head as to why a lady with a child was looking for her husband .

She was already standing there for an hour when a maid noticed her .

"Madam, why are you still standing there? You should be resting in your room . " The maid noted that before she ran an errand, the lady was already standing there . When she came back, she was surprised to find her in the same position .

Aoi Xiu turned to her with watery eyes .

The maid was frightened . Something is wrong with the madam!

The maid rushed downstairs to get Xiu Lan .

Xiu Lan was almost tripping on the steps as she went to find the lady of the house .

Aoi Xiu was found still standing there, gazing below towards the lady sitting on the sofa .

"Aoi . . . " Before Xiu Lan's words could register into Aoi's mind, the opening of the front door startled everyone .

Everyone from the household had widened eyes as the woman who had a baby in her arms bolted towards the man at the foyer .

"Jin!"
