Chapter 889 Nervousness

Seeing how Ashley was smiling widely, Andrew couldn't help but stretch out his hand and gently stroke
her hair.

Without saying anything, he just looked at her, also smiling.

It hadn't even been an entire day since Dany was returned to them, but the mood of the entire family
had already been lifted.

In the past, when it was just Fabio and Richard in their home, the family was content and happy. But
now that Dany had joined them, she made the family more alive.

As for Ashley, whenever all of her children were by her side, she never felt bored. But after all of them
went to school and she would be by herself in the house, she would always feel a little dreary. She
thought that she would feel a sense of calm but she just felt nothing but dullness.

"Andy." Ashley walked up to Andrew and held his hand.

"What is it?" Andrew asked before holding her in his arms.

"Can I go and work at my office tomorrow?" Ashley asked while looking at Andrew with expectant eyes.

With that question, Andrew furrowed his eyebrows. He then firmly said, "No!"

"But why? I've only been pregnant for a few months. I can still go to work. You don't have to worry. I'll
stop working when the proper time comes,"

Ashley reasoned out while looking at Andrew with a dissatisfied expression on her face.

"Andy, Honey, please! I promise I'm just going to work for two months. I'll stay home after that, I
promise!"



Ashley waited for Andrew's response with a serious expression this time.

"Don't bother yourself with that idea anymore. He won't let you go to work. Just stay at home and take
care of yourself and the baby."

Chant, who was playing with his phone close to the couple, could hear their conversation and joined in.

She was already delicate even before her pregnancy, let alone now that she was carrying another child
inside of her.

It was out of the question for her to go to work during this time.

"Well, there you go. You can't go to the company. You can only stay at home and take care of yourself
and the baby." Andrew said while he fumbled with Ashley's hands.

"But there's nothing for me to do here. It's so boring!"

"Honey, here's what I can promise you. Every single day, I'm going to finish my tasks at the company
as early as possible so I can come back and spend time with you. How does that sound?" Andrew
lowered his voice and whispered in Ashley's ear.

Ashley was rendered speechless.

"Okay, you can go to work now," she said before she withdrew her hand from Andrew's.

After that, Ashley went upstairs by herself.

Chant burst into laughter mercilessly when he saw how awkward Andrew looked.

"Well, it's time for you to go to work then."

"Please take care of her."



While looking at Andrew's receding figure, Chant was amused.

"Really? Ashley, you're pregnant again? This is incredible! Congratulations!" Chloe exclaimed when
she received Ashley's call.

"Don't congratulate me just yet. Right now, I'm bored staying at home all day long. I even feel like I'm
going to turn into a statue here, you know?" Ashley lay on the bed, feeling worn out.

Chloe laughed on the other end of the line. "Now you can finally understand what I was going through
at that time."

"Yes, I know." Ashley nodded even though Chloe couldn't really see her.

Not very long ago, Chloe called Ashley to complain about her pregnancy. Back then, Ashley was even
encouraging her. Who knew that after some time, it would be Ashley's turn to be exactly in Chloe's
position?

"Okay, okay, I'm not going to tease you any more about it. Let's talk again soon. I only have one hour to
play on my phone and laptop every day. Bye-bye!"

Being in such a hurry to say goodbye, Chloe immediately hung up the phone.

Ashley couldn't come to her senses for a while. She just stared into the screen of her phone.

She didn't expect that Chloe would hang up on her like that. Did she say that she was playing games?
She was playing on her computer? Or was it her smartphone? It seemed like Chloe thought her games
were more important than Ashley!

At the moment, Ashley started to doubt her life.



No one had to tell Ashley when she had the initiative to not play on her phone or computer because
she knew that the radiation from the screen was harmful to the baby in her womb.

Back when Ashley was pregnant with Fabio and Dany, she had read a lot about the harmful effects of
computer and phone radiation. So she was quite familiar with it.

However, her pregnancy this time was a little more complicated.

Ashley did not expect that she would be vomiting several times a day.

At times she would lose her appetite. Even if it was light and nutritious, she just couldn't stomach too
many food varieties.

Because of this, Andrew had taken great pains to satisfy her cravings and demands.

"Aaarrgh!"

Ashley was just sitting in the living room when suddenly a feeling of nausea came over her. She
immediately ran to the bathroom and retched.

However, nothing would come out of her. When the nausea subsided she just took a shower to freshen
up a bit and then came out.

Linda saw Ashley rushing to the bathroom repeatedly so she quickly approached Ashley. "My lady, are
you okay?"

"I'm fine.

When I was pregnant with Dany, I didn't have morning sickness. But now, my morning sickness is
getting worse by the day."

Ashley complained as she rubbed her belly. She felt so helpless enduring the pains of her pregnancy.



"It's actually a good thing. It just means that the baby in your womb is very healthy. Otherwise, he won't
have the energy to torment you," Linda explained.

Upon hearing what Linda just said, Ashley snorted with laughter.

"It's only been two months. How do you know if it's a boy or a girl?"

Ashley asked. She was amused at the moment.

"I believe it's going to be a boy!"

"To tell you the truth, whether it's a boy or a girl, it's still my baby. So I'm going to love him or her
nevertheless,"

Ashley said with a smile.

"My lady, would you like to take a walk outside?" Linda suggested as she helped Ashley get up.

Outside the villa were all kinds of flowers and plants which looked quite lovely.

"Sure, let's go!"

Ashley was already bored inside the house, so she thought it might really be a good idea to take a walk
outside.

Although she was not allowed to go beyond the walled gates of the villa, it was still pretty good for her
to be in the garden. The fresh air and sunshine on her skin made her feel calm and serene.

"Okay, let me help you!" Linda said, smiling back at her.



"Linda, I've already told you so many times that I'm fine. I can walk by myself. You don't have to be so
cautious with me," Ashley helplessly said.

"My lady, it's my duty to take care of you. Please don't push me away," Linda responded.

With that, Ashley didn't say anything in response.

Then, a young servant came to Ashley and reported, "My lady, there are some people outside the gate.
They told me that they're friends with the master and they wanted to see you."

"They're looking for me?"

Ashley asked, quite confused.

'Did they really say that they are Andrew's friends?' Ashley quietly asked herself.

"Yes, my lady."

"I wonder who they are.

In any case, let them in."

Ashley sat back on the sofa and turned to Linda. "Linda, you can go now."

"Okay, my lady. You can call me if you need anything."

"Yes, I know."

Outside the villa, Belinda, Martin, and Jeremy were standing by the gate. Since Belinda heard about
what happened to Camelia, she couldn't sit still. When her condition got a little better, she couldn't help
but visit her daughter as soon as possible.



However, at that moment, right when she was about to meet her daughter, Belinda started feeling
nervous.

"Jeremy, look at me. How do I look today? My makeup is not too much, right? And my clothes, do you
think they're ok?" Belinda asked, looking very anxious.
