My Mute Wife

“Click”, the sound of the door lock in the quiet room seems particularly clear.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Lydia and Lexie both froze for a moment, and Lydia’s voice came to a screeching halt.

She looked at Alan, who entered the door, in dismay, “When did you get here?”

Alan’s face was cold.

“Lydia, you go back to your ward first.”

Lydia froze and gave Lexie a worried look.

Lexie gestured that she was fine, and she left.

Alan and Lexie were the only two people left in the room.

“You’re not going to have the baby?”

A deep, cold voice echoed through the room.

Once Lydia left, the temperature in this room seemed to plummet by dozens of degrees.

Lexie clutched the sheet, [Yes.]

Since birth is destined to be a tragedy, it is better not to start.

Who can bear such a childhood with a mute mother at birth, without any ability to protect him, and a father who doesn’t love him at all?

Lexie’s certain look made Alan furious, “Who gave you permission to make such a decision without permission?”

The shadows fell violently, the pain on the wrist attacked Lexie drew a cold breath, the original pale face, at the moment is not a bit of blood.

Terribly, she was shocked to find that she had a vague hint of joy in her heart.

At the very least, Alan wanted the baby.

“You listen to me clearly, this child is to go or stay, you are not qualified to choose, your role, including staying in the Howard family to give birth to children, the child’s surname Howard, do not need you care, you just responsible for childbirth, the birth of self-care.”

A sentence like a basin of cold water, Lexie’s limbs will be drenched.

Alan is not going to let himself raise the child?

She stared incredulously at the man in front of her, her heart contracting terribly.

Alan shook off her hand, his eyes cool, “Don’t make me remind you over and over again of who you are, you’re just a piece Peter sent to the Mitchell family, I don’t have that much patience!”

Before he left, Alan left a message.

“If something happens to the kid, guess if that old man can live out his days in peace?”

Lexie’s face was ashen.

With a ‘bang’, the door of the room closed and the whole house trembled with it.

She suddenly felt sick to her stomach and ran to the bathroom, holding the wall, with a frenzy of dry heaving.

Everything in front of you is very disgusting.

Good people are dead, or threatened, the rest of those who do nothing evil live in the scenery, in J City, a city not too small, turning their hands into clouds, stepping on other people’s bodies, doing the people.

Alan came out of the ward and looked at his hands, which had shaken from closing the door so much that they were buzzing in his ears.

I actually regret a little.

“Mr. Howard, are you all right?”

Jack had been waiting outside, “Miss Hunt had been so worried.”

Alan frowned and after a moment of contemplation said, “Let the old man go first.”

“Huh?”

“Send someone to keep an eye on him.”

“Yes.”

Jack did not dare to ask more questions, followed Alan to go outside, reported the company’s business, “the foreign account to find out a little information out, every time there is a large amount of money transfer into the account, Edith does happen to be abroad.”

Alan’s brow furrowed.

That account is indeed related to Edith.

He has long expected that Peter has such a precious daughter, it is impossible not to give her anything to do, just let her be a general doctor.

“She’s been so quiet lately, what’s she doing?”

“I was about to report to you, Peter seems to have a relationship with a family business abroad, the two families are trying to set up, seems to be interested in marrying Edith, by the way, the other party surnamed Cheng.”

At the word, Alan’s eyes sank.

After Lexie was discharged from the hospital, she was taken back to the Howard family by Jack to nurse her baby.

Diana’s face turned green when she learned of Lexie’s pregnancy.

“When was this? A few months?”

Jack stopped Diana, “Madam, Mr. Howard explained that the wife should recuperate, so don’t disturb her.”

“No, I didn’t mean anything else, it was Alan’s first child after all, I had to ask about it, or let Marry prepare early and see what she wanted to eat and drink.”

“No need madam, Mr. Howard asked me to hire a nutritionist, from now on the wife’s diet and living will be taken care of by someone.”

“So much trouble? So many maids in the house are not enough for her to use?”

“I’m not sure about that, Mr. Howard thinks a lot of this kid.”

Jack knew it was useless to say more, “Nothing else, I’ll leave you to your hard work, madam.”

Looking at the master bedroom, Diana’s face quickly sank.

A thousand calculations or missed, this mute actually really pregnant.

Things would be difficult.

After Jack left, she excused herself and took her phone back to her bedroom to make a call.

“Hello? It’s me.”

A man’s voice came from the other end of the phone, with the husky low tone of a middle-aged man, “What’s up?”

“Can’t I call you if there’s nothing wrong?”

Silence on the other end.

“Come on, every time,” Diana muttered impatiently, “I’m looking for you for business, did you know that the mute is pregnant?”

“What?”

“I also just learned today, I kindly remind you that if you don’t do something about it, you can really end up with nothing!”

“…”

The waiter hitched a white towel and poured red wine in a standard pose.

Alan took the initiative to lift the glass, “I heard that Edith is an expert in wine appreciation, how about a taste of this wine?”

Edith, however, changed her usual warm and gentle tone, “Alan, you suddenly asked me out, not just to let me taste red wine?”

Alan did not change his face, “Recently, I have been busy with work, so I did not bother to ask you, how are you doing after joining the Institute, no one is giving you a hard time, right?”

“How can anyone give me a hard time? Who doesn’t know that I was handpicked by Alan to join the Howard Group Medical Institute?”

“But,” Edith changed her tone, “I was just about to tell you about this too, I may not be able to continue at the Institute.”

“What’s wrong?”

“My father still wants me to go abroad.”

Alan suddenly fell silent and took a sip of wine from his glass.

Edith pursed her lips, did not hold back, “In fact, I do not want to go, but I think the country is not much fun, in the end you are my brother-in-law, I often come out to dinner with you, but also by people pointing.”

Alan suddenly took out a small black velvet box and slowly pushed it over, “Originally, I was going to give you this, but since you are going abroad, this should not be used.”

In front of Edith, the box ‘banged’ lightly and opened, the diamond’s light glittered under the crystal chandelier.

Edith’s eyes lit up brightly, “This … Alan, this is …”

Diamond ring.
