The Billionaire’s Brokenhearted Deal

Chapter 410: Chapter 410: Second Prenatal Check-up Chapter 410: Chapter 410: Second Prenatal Check-up In the living room.

Linda sat uncomfortably on the sofa, unsure of how Mrs. Mo would deal with her.

Finally, she heard footsteps coming from behind her.

Linda turned around, “Mrs. Mo.”

“Sit down.” Mrs. Mo walked directly to the sofa opposite and sat down.

Before Mrs. Mo could speak, Linda hurried to defend herself, “Mrs. Mo, you can’t just take Miss Qiao’s word for it. She doesn’t like the nutritional meals I prepare, and besides, it’s normal for pregnant women to be emotionally unstable…”

Mrs. Mo said, “I know, she’s just a child; don’t take it to heart.”

Linda was startled, “So you mean…”

“Ruoxin is young, and being pregnant, her emotions are likely unstable. Here’s what we’ll do—take some time off and rest. If I need help, I will call you.”

Mrs. Mo was straightforward and directly issued a dismissal.

“Mrs. Mo, are you really firing me?” Linda couldn’t believe Mrs. Mo would just let her go so easily. Just because of what Qiao Ruoxin said?

“I have no choice, I need to consider the pregnant woman’s feelings. After all, she is just a child, and we adults should be more tolerant, don’t you agree?”

Mrs. Mo sighed, as if burdened with many reluctances.

Linda slowly stood up, “I understand, but madam, if you spoil an incoming daughter-in-law like this, forgive my bluntness, but she may take advantage of you after the wedding.”

After speaking, Linda turned and left.

Mrs. Mo, however, was deep in thought, her mind a mystery to all.

The butler approached, “Madam, should we still pay Linda’s salary?”

“Pay her, and also, find someone to follow her, see whom she meets these days.”

Mrs. Mo thought if Linda was indeed here to harm someone, then she needed to know who was behind Linda, or she would be unable to guard against them.

Butler: “Yes, understood. I’ll take care of it right away.”

…

After Qiao Ruoxin returned to the bedroom, she saw Mo Chen already lying in bed, dressed in a black robe, looking at his phone.

When he heard the door open, the man looked up and said in a deep voice, “Where have you been?”

“Took a walk in the garden.”

She walked over and threw herself into the man’s embrace.

He wrapped one arm around her naturally and switched off his phone with the other, tossing it onto the nightstand. Then he shifted his position to hold her properly.

“Unhappy?” Mo Chen looked down at her bright eyes.

“No… It’s just the pregnancy; I’m more sensitive.”

Mo Chen lifted her into his lap, his large hand moving towards her abdomen, “Want to talk about it with your legal husband?”

She couldn’t help but laugh, “I sent away the nutritionist that Mrs. Mo had hired. Do you think she’ll be upset?”

The man frowned, “Maybe, but she cares more about the child in your belly.”

Qiao Ruoxin was at a loss for words.

Indeed, Mrs. Mo had seemed a bit unhappy just now, but for the sake of the child in her womb, she had forcefully held back.

“Won’t Mrs. Mo take revenge on me after the child is born?”

Mo Chen snorted and pinched her soft, fair cheek, “She’s not that petty.”

“Alright then…”

“Get some sleep, we have a prenatal check-up scheduled for tomorrow.”

Qiao Ruoxin was taken aback, “Another check-up? Has it been a month already?”

These days, with her routine of eating and sleeping, she hadn’t noticed time passing so quickly.

…

The next day, early morning.

Qiao Ruoxin had arranged to go to the hospital for a prenatal checkup, accompanied by Mrs. Mo and Mo Chen.

She felt as if she wasn’t going to the hospital, but rather walking the red carpet, guarded by bodyguards both in front and behind, with Mo Chen on one side and Mrs. Mo on the other.

Tsk tsk…noveldrama

Such treatment was truly of a super-luxury level.

Of course, it was because of the twins in her stomach that she could enjoy this kind of treatment.

Qiao Ruoxin had gone for a prenatal checkup, while Mrs. Mo and Mo Chen waited in the rest area.

Mrs. Mo sat on the sofa, her pride apparent in her posture, exuding the temperament of a lady from an affluent family no matter how one looked at her.

“Mo Chen, the wedding date is approaching. Will Qiao Ruoxin’s parents be coming?”

“…” The man remained silent.

“Not even one of them? What kind of parents are these?” Mrs. Mo frowned unhappily, arms crossed.

Mo Chen’s frown deepened as he said in a heavy tone, “Trash parents.”

At that moment, Qiao Ruoxin walked out from inside, looking exhausted.

Mo Chen went over to her and supported her increasingly weak body, “What’s wrong?”

“Had blood drawn, so tired…” She had become so frail; she couldn’t even bear to look at herself anymore.

Mrs. Mo, on the other hand, stood up to carefully check the lab report. All the indicators were more or less normal, except for some hypoglycemia.

At that moment, Dr. Wang, who was responsible for Qiao Ruoxin’s prenatal care during her pregnancy, came out.

“Dr. Wang, she doesn’t have any serious problems, does she?”

“Mrs. Mo and Mr. Mo, please rest assured, there’s nothing serious. It’s just some hypoglycemia. I’ve prescribed some medication; she just needs to take it on time. Besides, she needs a balanced diet, as her appetite doesn’t seem very good…”

The doctor said a lot, but Mrs. Mo only remembered the need for a balanced diet—it seemed necessary to find a nutritionist.

After the ultrasound, she finally saw what resembled a little meatball. At the next prenatal visit, they should be able to see the baby’s formed shape.

Mo Chen looked at the ultrasound snapshot with a complicated expression.

“What are you thinking?” Qiao Ruoxin couldn’t help but think Mo Chen’s expression looked rather indescribable.

The man said in a deep voice, “This is my child?”

It just looked like a little meatball; one couldn’t make out anything distinct.

She chuckled, “Of course, it hasn’t developed its shape yet.”

Mrs. Mo gave Mo Chen a glare, “By the next prenatal checkup, you’ll be able to see what the child looks like. It’s your first time being a father, you have no experience.”

At that moment, Mrs. Mo’s phone rang.

After taking a call, Mrs. Mo’s expression became somewhat grave, and she said to Mo Chen, “You take Ruoxin back first, I have some matters to take care of.”

Mo Chen responded indifferently.

Then, Mrs. Mo turned and left.

Watching Mrs. Mo’s retreating figure in the hospital corridor, Qiao Ruoxin couldn’t help but ask, “Where’s Mom going?”

“Don’t know.”

The man wrapped an arm around her waist and walked toward the elevator.

“So we’re heading back now?”

“Taking you out for a stroll.”

Qiao Ruoxin laughed, “It’s still Mo Chen who treats me the best. I was almost bored to death in the manor.”

Even though the manor was picturesque and had all the facilities, there was still a feeling of being imprisoned.

The corners of Mo Chen’s mouth lifted, “Sweet talker, where do you want to go?”

“Hmm… I want to go to the cinema to watch a movie, the one where I made a cameo wearing a wedding dress has been released, I want to see it.”

“Let’s go.”

Suddenly, she felt her fatigue disappear, and she clung to the man’s arm, smiling brightly.

However, she had no idea that Mrs. Mo was on her way to see Jiang Peilan.
