Evelyne wanted to visit her daughter at the hospital but Amanda declined. Her condition was getting better and she will be discharged in two days time.
"Mom, you don't have to come. It was nothing serious. I just fainted at work because I was exhausted." Amanda said.
She could not tell her mother the truth for the fear that she will start to overthink and let her thoughts run wild.
"You need to take care of yourself. You always come home late and leave early. I don't get to see you for some days and yet we live under the same roof. How can I not be worried?" Evelyne reprimanded her. Amanda was touched. In her past life, her mother did not even get the chance to say such words. Although it felt like she was being scolded, Amanda did not feel angry. In return, she was happy.
"I know mom, I also have some good news. I will tell you when I come home." Amanda said.
"Just say it already, mom can't wait to hear."
"No I'm not saying. You will have to wait for me to come home." Amanda said, was she trying to act cute with her mother.
"Then I will just call Richard directly." Evelyne feigned anger.
"No mom don't. Richard doesn't know yet." Amanda stopped her mom. Richard will never hide anything from her mother.
She was worried that he will tell her, that is why she warned him earlier, or else her mom would not be in the dark until now.
"Are you pregnant?" Evelyne asked.
Apart from this, she could not think about anything else. If it was work, Richard handled everything, so there is nothing he cannot know concerning Amanda's work.
When she heard her mother had guessed right, Amanda was so shocked that she choked on the water she was drinking.
Richard happened to enter at that time, seeing her coughing profusely, he immediately went to pat her on the back.
"Why are you careless even when you are drinking water?" Richard did not know what to do with his woman. She will be the death of him one day.
Hearing Richard's voice, Evelyne suddenly called out his name over the phone, and since he was bending his body towards Amanda, he heard her.
He took the phone from Amanda's hand and put it on his ear. Amanda on the other hand was still coughing madly. Her eyes had already turned moist.
Looking at her disheveled state, Richard's eyes darkened.
