"You're welcome sir," nanny Vera greeted as Richard stepped into the living room. The servants had tidied everywhere up by now. Richard looked at the slightly empty living room with no form of expression on his face. The new center table that he recently bought was gone too. The maids thought that he would flare up by this great level of damage and might even throw their madam out and shivered uncontrollably. Elliot didn't disclose what Richard had said to him over the phone to any of them. After his call with Richard, he only instructed his colleagues to monitor their madam closely. What Richard said later shocked all of them. "Where's my wife?" He asked, looking at nanny Vara in particular with panic registered in his voice. Judging from what he saw, he feared that something bad might have happened to Sarah. The emptiness of the living room suggested that Sarah had lost control of herself earlier and might even try to hurt herself in the end. A wave of regret s

Because Richard had deprived himself of sleep and had worked himself out during this whole period, he tended to sleep whenever his body touched the bed. Sarah couldn't bring herself to disturb his sleep. She stared at him for a long time before lying down on her back. Since she had slept for too long today, sleep eluded her. She picked her phone from the headboard and chatted Daisy up but Daisy didn't reply. She realized that she had slept already. Sarah sent Frank a text. Luckily to her, he was still awake. His response came a few seconds after Sarah sent him the text. Sarah smiled happily and began to chat with him. It was around 2am that Sarah finally fell asleep. Richard woke up the next day and found Sarah still sleeping. He palpated her body to check her temperature before leaving for work. He would keep an eye on her and would call the doctor if her temperature went up again.Since that day, he stopped spending the night in his study and they began to sleep on the same bed ag

Sarah was trying to pull a seat out from the table but didn't seem to have enough energy for this. She was struggling with the seat when Richard walked over to her. He stretched out his hand and pulled the seat out then adjusted it to a comfortable position before walking around and took a seat beside Sarah. Sarah blinked her round eyeballs in surprise. She did not expect Richard to join her. Well, she didn't have the energy to argue with him this morning so she let him be. Clara served them the dishes and returned to the kitchen to get the fresh juice that she had processed. Sarah was very hungry so she quickly picked up her fork and began to eat. "I will take you out later in the day, so get ready," Richard said. "I don't want to go out with you," Sarah said with a snap. She dug her fork into the fried egg packed with spices and cut a piece then took a bite. The smell of onion filled her mouth and everything that Sarah had eaten rushed back to her mouth. Sarah stoo

Sarah straightened up and picked the spoon on the tray and took her first spoon. She chewed the food slowly to ascertain its taste before swallowing it. "There's not enough salt in the sauce," Sarah remarked. Richard took a napkin from the table and cleaned the oil on Sarah's lips. "Yes, the doctor specifically stated that you should eat less salt in the meantime to avoid preeclampsia in later stage," Richard said. Sarah frowned slightly and stared at him. "I'm only three weeks gone. Preeclampsia happens around 20 weeks of pregnancy. Why can't I have enough salt," "Yes, but may at times occur earlier in some pregnancies. Besides, taking only a little salt will help ensure that you don't puke in the future. Too much salt will only make you feel dizzier, remember." Richard explained like a professional doctor. The truth was, doctor Samuel only adviced that Sarah ate less salt this period since she was constantly feeling weak but could continue taking i

Mrs. Harriet made sure that Richard's boot was stocked with different gifts when they were ready to leave the old house. Some for Sarah while the rest were for the unborn child. Sarah stared with absolute astonishment as the guards carried the gifts to the car. "Mom, I don't think that these are necessary yet. I'm only three weeks pregnant. It's way too early for…" "What's too early? I bought gifts for both your husband and Kate before conceiving them. According to tradition, this helps attract children from the spirit world to a woman's womb and also wards off any spirit that tries to steal the child away from the woman's womb. So, I bought these gifts for your child long before now too. You can see the result now," Mrs. Harriet explained, looking very serious. Sarah laughed out loud at this superstition. "Mom, you don't believe this fallacy, do you?" Sarah asked in the middle of laughter. "Does it matter if I believe in it or not? We just need to fol
