Chapter 932 – Massage
Although he hoped to make amends with Luna,
Even more so, he hoped that Luna would emerge from the shadows and face life with positivity.
Why make things difficult for oneself?
Country F.
Sacha has been discharged.
She will be coming over today.
Freya is preparing dinner in the kitchen.
Her phone is left in the room, so she doesn’t hear it ringing.
Orion, unwilling to give up, tries calling three times, but no one answers. He can only temporarily abandon the attempt.
In order not to make Luna uncomfortable, he refrains from stubbornly provoking her and trying to change her mind.
“I have something to attend to later, take care of Star,” Orion tells Luna.
Luna responds, “I will take care of Star.”
Not a single unnecessary word is uttered.
Orion looks at her deeply, then leaves.
Luna clears the table.
She has no appetite.
The current situation seems a bit out of control.
After much thought, Luna decides to call Freya.
Once again, no one answers.
Nevertheless, she makes the call.
No one answers, knowing that she must have something on, or her phone is not with her. She sees the missed call and will surely return it.
…
Country F.
This side is lively and harmonious.
Sacha has been discharged smoothly, but after this incident, she has become more cautious.
Evan is taking good care of her.
He helps Sacha sit on the sofa.
Sacha is supported by a pillow behind her, leaning comfortably.
Kai is peeling oranges for her.
Sacha feels incredibly happy, she pats Kai’s head, “Do you want to go to school?”
Kai nods, “I like school.”
Sacha says, “Kai is so smart, you will definitely get into the best university.”
Kai smiles and hands her the peeled orange, “Aunt, you eat.”
Sacha takes it, breaks off a segment and holds it to Kai’s mouth, “You eat first, Kai.”
Kai opens his mouth, eagerly awaiting the orange.
Sacha breaks off a segment and puts it in her mouth, chewing slowly.
She says, “The orange peeled by Kai is so sweet.”
Kai says, “Aunt loves to eat, so I’ll peel another one for you.”
Sacha chuckles, “Our Kai is indeed a little warm-hearted man.”
Kai doesn’t know what a warm-hearted man is, but knows that Aunt is good to him.
So, he wants to be good to Aunt too.
“Aunt’s food is also for the little sister in Aunt’s stomach, Aunt, you should eat more.” Kai becomes more attentive in feeding.
Sacha enjoys this peaceful time.
…
Freya cooks personally, busy all day, preparing a table full of delicious food.
Before her discharge, Sacha mentioned craving Pine Nut Mandarin Fish. Since there are no good restaurants around, she couldn’t have authentic Pine Nut Mandarin Fish, so she bought the ingredients and made it herself.
She also cooked Lily Bulb and Lotus Seed Soup, which she consulted with a gynecologist she knows.
The doctor said that pregnant women are prone to heatiness, eating lotus seeds can clear the heart and reduce heat, and Yam Stew with spare ribs is also good for pregnant women.
Today, she only made one soup.
Yam stew with spare ribs, she’ll make the others next time.
Today, she made other dishes that she used to eat at home frequently, but now in Country F, there are significant differences in cuisine.
To taste authentic Chinese cuisine, she has to cook it herself.
So, she made some home-cooked dishes, like Tomato and Egg Stir-Fry, Vinegar Potato Shreds, Cold Okra Salad… and more.
Sacha is touched by Freya’s sincere kindness, her heart nearly melting.
At the dining table, Evan offers a toast to Freya with juice mixed with alcohol.
“Thank you for your hospitality, Sister-in-law.”
Elijah interjects, “Don’t come over often in the future.”
Every time they come, Freya gets tired.
He doesn’t want his wife to be overworked.
Evan chuckles, “We don’t come often anyway.”
“If you were to come frequently, what then?”
Sacha also realizes that she’s causing trouble for Freya.
Feeling moved in her heart.
And grateful on the surface.
“You don’t have a daughter, if I have a daughter, I’ll let her be your goddaughter.” Sacha snuggles up to Freya.
“And Sister-in-law won’t dislike me either.” She clings to Freya, acting spoiled.
Elijah feels stung.
He has two sons, no daughters.
And Sacha keeps bringing this up.
He asks, “Are you sure you can have a son? Who knows, you might end up having more sons than me.”
Sacha doesn’t get upset, knowing Elijah is teasing her.
She replies, “Brother, are you jealous that I might have a daughter?”
…
Sacha keeps these words in mind.
As they leave the mansion, she asks Evan to take her to the hospital.
Evan is puzzled, “Didn’t we just get discharged? Are you feeling unwell?”
Thinking that Sacha might be feeling unwell, he instantly becomes nervous.
“I’ll take you to the hospital right away.”
Sacha says, “I want to check if the baby in my belly is a son or a daughter.”
Evan, “…”
“Whether it’s a son or a daughter, they’re both our children, I like them both. There’s no need for a special examination. Didn’t you say you don’t like the smell of disinfectant in hospitals? Let’s not go to the hospital.”
Evan is fine with having a son or a daughter, he likes them both.
Although Sacha is fine with having a daughter or a son,
Deep down, she still yearns for a daughter.
Maybe it’s because there are no girls around her.
She links arms with Evan, “We should have a few more daughters.”
Evan asks, “Why?”
She replies, “Because my brother doesn’t have any, if we have more daughters, we can make him envious.”
Evan, turning to look at his wife, asks, “So, you’re competitive in this aspect too?”
“It’s not about being competitive, I just think, if we have more daughters, we can let Sister-in-law help raise one of them, to make up for the fact that they don’t have a daughter. Although sons are great, daughters are more affectionate and caring, if you raise them for a long time, you’ll develop a bond. This way, they’ll have a daughter too, even if she’s not their own, she’ll be just as good as a daughter.”
Evan says, “You’re thinking a lot, why don’t you just focus on safely delivering this baby first, we can think about the rest later.”
Sacha rubs her belly.
It’s not protruding yet.
But she can feel a slight bulge and a hard lump.
…
Elowen returns from her trip.
Morton misses her and is now clingier.
He wants her to cuddle him to sleep at night.
This gives Freya some relief, not having to take care of Morton.
Kai has also grown up, doing things on his own, not needing her help.
Even though cooking was tiring today, the two children didn’t give her any trouble.
Cleaning up after dinner was done by the maid.
No need for her to do it.
She takes a hot bath to relax her stiff muscles.
Elijah says, “In the future, let others do these things.”
Freya, wrapped in a silky nightgown, freshly washed hair exuding a faint scent.
She sits on the edge of the bed, “I’m free, I can handle it.”Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.
After all, she is now a homemaker, without a job, doing some things can help pass the time.
Only now she realizes that these tasks are so tiring.
When she was on the operating table, standing for hours, nerves tense, was also tiring.
But household chores are purely physical exertion.
Elijah sets aside his book, “Let me give you a massage.”
Freya laughs, pushing him away, “I don’t want that.”
