Chapter 13 Perfect mother

Henry's mother smiled, but she didn't think much of it. Even when Jimmy said that, he nodded in agreement. Because she really liked Anna, if there was another obedient daughter-in-law who understood such things, wouldn't the family be much more harmonious and happy.

"Jimmy, give me some ideas. Tomorrow I want Anna and Henry to register their marriage, should we have a big party to celebrate first? After that, we will prepare more carefully for the next wedding." Henry's mother did not know who to consult, and finally decided to talk to Jimmy.

Jimmy smiled at her, but for some reason, when he heard that the two of them were about to register their marriage, he felt a very uncomfortable feeling in his heart. He didn't understand why there was such a feeling in his body. Clearly before that he really wanted Henry to find a good girl and get married, so that his father could confidently hand over the chairman's chair to Henry. But now he felt a little jealous and didn't even want Henry to marry Anna. He clenched his fist, feeling insecure with himself. Of course he wasn't stupid enough to realize what this feeling was. Although he had never loved anyone before.

"Jimmy, are you listening to me? How are you? Are you unwell? Do I need to call a doctor to see you?" Henry's mother frowned when she saw Jimmy drowsily, his face bewildered and lack of concentration.

Jimmy jumped, then smiled wryly at Henry's mother.

"I'm fine, just now I suddenly remembered that there is a contract of the company that I need to see urgently. As for the table setting, I think you'd better ask Anna to see what she thinks."

"You're busy, so you go, I'll talk to Anna." Henry's mother waved her hand to Jimmy to go about his business, no need to forcefully sit down and talk to her.

As she watched Jimmy's back leave, she sighed, because Jimmy was really a good guy. Not only caring for the family, but also being very diligent at work. If Jimmy wanted to contest Henry's estate or chairmanship, she was convinced that Jimmy was more deserving of that position than her son.

While Henry left, Anna alone in the room continued to feel uneasy. She paced back and forth in the room, looking at her flat stomach without a headache. Although she is a medical student, knowing the pregnancy symptoms of a normal pregnant woman, she will perfectly play the role of pregnant woman without anyone noticing. But what she is worried about is that the longer the pregnancy period, the more her belly has to grow and get bigger to fit. But she was not pregnant, how to make her belly bigger. Of course she had thought about stuffing something in her stomach, but what if something went wrong? She couldn't help but think of the worst case scenario that could happen at any moment. The more she thought about it, the more uneasy she felt, and suddenly her eyes lit up. She decided to call her best friend for help. She's much smarter, more mischievous than she is, she's sure to find a way. She looked for her phone and was about to call her when there was a knock on the door outside. She had to put the phone down, then quickly climbed back into bed. The one who could politely knock on the door before entering was definitely not Henry, so she needed to play the role of the pregnant woman. Sure enough, then she heard the middle-aged woman's voice.

"Anna, can I come into the room?"

She desperately wanted to pretend she was asleep, but before she could say anything, she pushed open the door and entered. Making her cry and laugh, silently exclaiming that it was indeed Henry's mother. Although she was more polite than him, she still didn't need other people's consent.

"Did you find something wrong with me?" Anna spoke softly. At this point, she couldn't even pretend to be silent.

"Why call me aunt, I'm going to have a baby in my stomach, tomorrow I will also register for marriage. Call me mom, you know?" Henry's mother pretended to be angry.

Anna was scared by Henry's mother's reaction, she thought she was really angry, so she hurriedly apologized.

"Sorry mom, I'm just not used to this new address for a while. Please don't be angry."

Henry's mother laughed at Anna's frightened expression, but she liked her even more because of that. Because she is really naive and straightforward. Then she sat down to hold her hand, and together discussed the problem she wanted to find her to consult. The more Anna heard, the more uncomfortable she felt, because she was not really married to Henry, between her and him was just an agreement. So she doesn't want many people to know that she and he are married. But she did not dare to speak out against Henry's mother's opinion.

"What do you think? I set about a hundred banquet tables in advance, later when I choose a good day, I will hold a more solemn wedding ceremony for you. You can rest assured, I will absolutely not let you suffer any damage when marrying Henry."

Anna's eyes widened as she looked at Henry's mother, is a hundred banquets for her a small party? Then how terrible will it be to hold a wedding? She couldn't let that party happen, if the party was ever held. Surely everyone will know that she is Henry's wife, later when she and he divorce, it is difficult for her to find a man who truly loves her anymore. She quickly found a way to avoid this party, and suddenly her eyes opened.

"Mom! Being pregnant is probably not suitable for large parties." She tried to sound tired and awkward to speak up.

Henry's mother froze, glancing at Anna's belly. She finally sighed, she really forgot about this important thing, her daughter-in-law is in the first months of pregnancy, the first month of pregnancy has a lot of things to pay attention to and be careful of, so how to walk in a party of many people. She thought for a moment and then spoke up.

"Then we can only make family meals for the time being. I feel sorry for you. When the fetus is stable, I will hold a solemn wedding to make up for it."
