S2| 157. Confession of the Fortune Teller
"I-isn't that the fortune teller?" the pregnant woman muttered breathlessly. Her eyes trembled as horror gripped her mind.
Realizing that Mia's whole body had turned tense, Julian automatically moved his hand to rub his wife's cold arm.
"Yes, she is the fortune teller. But, you don't have to worry. This time, let's not pay attention to her words. We just need to walk as if she doesn't exist."
Hearing her husband's suggestion, Mia swallowed hard. After taking a deep breath, she nodded. "Okay," the pregnant woman sighed while tightening her grip.
A second later, the couple continued walking. Both of them avoided the fortune teller's gaze. Julian looked to the side, while Mia pretended to be observe the steps. Understanding what her employer was doing, Lena also kept her eyes busy.
"Who exactly is that woman, Madam?" the young servant whispered while rearranging the bags she was carrying.
"We'll tell you later," Mia said in a depressed vo

"Why didn't you bring Lena here?" Julian asked while turning to the woman walking beside him.In an instant, Mia stopped noticing the composition of yellow and white roses in her hand. Lifting the corners of her lips, she returned the man's shady gaze.“I want to keep our privacy. Without Lena, we can talk more freely and convey anything to Dad,” the woman answered, successfully engendering a sense of pride in her husband's heart."You are a very understanding wife, Mia," Julian flattered, rubbing the pregnant woman's back.While spreading a smile, Mia wrapped an arm around the man's waist and rested her head for a moment on the broad shoulder. "I know you'll be embarrassed if Lena sees your tears."Not expecting his wife to make fun of him like that, a spontaneous bland laugh escaped from Julian's mouth. "Do you think I'm going to burst into tears?"Without wasting time, Mia nodded. "Yes. My husband has a very tender heart. He w

"It doesn't matter, Julian. You're still in the learning process. One day, you will definitely become very strong,” Mia whispered, implanting suggestions.Nodding, Julian closed his eyes and took a deep breath. The scent of Mia's hair never failed to calm his restless heart. Unfortunately, before the couple had time to let go of the hug, a cell phone in the man's pocket suddenly rang. Feeling disturbed, Julian grimaced."Who's calling at an inopportune time like this?" the CEO grumbled, making his wife laugh out loud.However, as soon as Mia's eyes caught the name that appeared on the screen, surprise suddenly weighed on her brows. The joy was no longer etched on her face."Why is Alice calling at this weekend?" she whispered without blinking.After shaking his head faintly, Julian received the call. "What's the matter, Alice?" the CEO asked under a frown."Good morning, Sir. Sorry to disturb your leisure time," the second secretary sa

"Who is it, Madam?" Lena whispered, curious about Mia's cell phone that had just rang."Gabriella," the woman answered, raising an eyebrow.Instantly, the young servant sucked the air from her mouth. “Have they secretly returned?” she sighed hopefully.While shrugging briefly, Mia received the call. She didn't want to get her hopes up."What's the matter, Gaby?" the pregnant woman greeted friendly.“Mia, are you at the office?” the woman from the other side of the phone asked in a cheerful tone."Yes. We just got back from buying lunch. So, why are you calling at this hour? Isn't it almost midnight there?" the potbellied woman inquired while glancing at the servant who was waiting to hear from her.Unexpectedly, Gabriella's laughter sounded crisp. "Midnight? The sun is scorching here. Cayden is very happy to see flowers this season."In an instant, a sigh of relief escaped from Mia's mouth. "I've got the

"M-Mrs. Evans?" the suddenly pale woman sighed. Cold sweat began to form on her forehead.“Are you sure that your performance in this company is good?” Mia asked defiantly.Everyone who heard her loud voice spontaneously gulped. They had never seen the secretary so fierce. Wasn't Mia Sanders a graceful quiet woman? Had she been infected by the CEO's hot temper since her name changed to Mia Evans?“Y-yes, Madam. I have never heard any complaint from a superior or received a reprimand. I always do all the tasks on time with satisfactory results,” the woman who shrank replied. Her chin was no longer challenging the sky, while her shoulders drooped with worry.Without changing her sharp eyes, Mia moved her gaze to the employee with longer hair. “Is what she said true? Has anyone never rebuked her?”Grimacing, the woman who shifted away from her partner nodded. “R-right, Madam. Until this time, she has always re

“What did you two discuss earlier, Julian? Why does Alice have a long face?” Mia asked with a forced smile. The husband must not know that she was not comfortable with the pressure in her womb. At such a question, Julian quickly looked away from the tablet and put on an innocent look. "I'm not scolding her—just suggesting to work a little more carefully," he replied dryly. While walking towards the husband's table, Mia raised an eyebrow. “Hasn't Alice grown a lot? Her work is much faster and neater.” “Yes, but still not thorough enough. There are still files that she didn't arrange according to the priority scale," the CEO said while getting up from his chair. After circling the table, he landed a warm kiss on Mia's forehead. "So, what did you buy for lunch?" While pressing the waist, the pregnant woman glanced sideways. Without a word, Lena showed the meals. “We bought sandwiches,” Mia said as Julian checked their lunch menu. "Do you

"How is the fetal heart rate?" the doctor asked with furrowed brows. "Still safe, Doc." After a blink, the woman in green brought her eyes to the patient who was already very pale. “Are you still strong, Madam?” In between irregular sighs, Mia nodded weakly. "Yes." “Then let's try one more time. Please give all your strength, Madam,” the doctor said with a reassuring nod. "You can do it." As the medic returned to her seat, Julian stroked his wife's sweat-drenched hair. The eyes of the man who was also dressed in green were already covered with tears. "Come on, Mia. I know you are strong. Little Princess can't wait to see us." A second later, Mia answered with a faint head motion. She had to conserve energy to deliver the baby who kept pressing on her pelvis. "Start to control your breath again," the doctor said, tightening her patient's fist. “Inhale …, exhale. Pull again, push now!” While gripping her husband's

“Grace has very beautiful eyes, Julian,” Mia sighed in admiration even though she had actually expected that the baby's eyes would be as dark as hers. “Wait until the color changes to hazel. You'll be more amazed," the man muttered with a small smile. Hearing those words, the woman spontaneously squinted. “Are you praising the Little Princess or yourself?” After laughing lightly, Julian kissed his wife's head. "I didn't say that Grace inherited my eyes." “You implied it,” Mia argued while raising one eyebrow. But a second later, she returned focus to her daughter. After one deep breath, the woman's lips curled up again. "But I'm glad Little Princess has the same eye color as you." "Why?" the man replied with tilted head. "That color always succeeds to steal my heart," Mia answered, successfully inviting Julian's sighs of laughter. Unbeknownst to them, the three peeking people smiled as well. Not wanting to disturb, Gabrie

“Why are you looking at Grace like that, Little Prince?” Gabriella asked with a smile that never left her face. His son was too adorable with two round sparkling eyes and a tiny mouth that opened without a word. After a blink, Cayden finally looked away from his cousin. Then, the baby boy's eyebrows were raised excitedly in front of the woman who was also sitting on the edge of the bed. “Ace small,” he whispered, as if afraid to wake his little cousin. Hearing that statement again, Gabriella let out a smile. “Yeah, Grace is small because she's only one week old. Because of that, you have to take good care of her. Understand?" Still with the same expression, Cayden again dropped his eyes on the baby who was wearing a white dress with flowers and sun patterns. After a moment of silence, he suddenly chuckled. Witnessing the sudden joy, Mia curled her lips and furrowed her brows at Gabriella. "Why is he laughing?" the woman leaning against the pil
