Hand in hand, Trevor and Layla walked into Trevor's villa. In the large living room, Johnson and Haley were sitting on the couch. Johnson was still very serious, but Haley was very delighted seeing her son and daughter-in-law went home together in an intimate way.
She hurriedly asked Layla to take a seat, called the servant to serve the black chicken soup and said, "Layla, how’s your study going? I've had the servant prepared some ginseng black chicken soup for you. It's good for your body. Come on; drink it before it gets cold. Drinking soup before meal is good for health."
"Thank you, Mum!" Layla was always a bit embarrassed to call her enthusiastic mother-in-law "Mum". But Haley had called herself like that, so Layla could only brace herself to do so.
Trevor raised his eyebrows, and he was very satisfied hearing Layla's reaction.
There was still half an hour before the dinner; Johnson called his son to the study room to discuss the company matters, while in the living room, Haley was urging Layla to finish the soup. After Layla drank a bowl, Haley immediately asked the servant to bring another one, "Layla, you're too thin. You need more nourishing foods to build up your health."
After finishing two bowls, Layla waved her hands and said, "I can't drink anymore."
"Fine, let’s take a walk in the yard to help with the digestion. After a little while, we'll have dinner together. There'll be plenty of dishes tonight." Haley chattered.
"Layla, although you're young, Trevor is no longer young. We parents are waiting for a grandson, so you two must work hard to have a baby earlier."
"Actually, you don't need to worry. I'll help you take care of the baby. We just need a call to your school, and then nobody will bother you."
"To give birth to a baby, the younger, the better. When you are older, it'll be more dangerous for you."
Haley kept chattering so much that Layla understood the purpose she had her finished two bowls of soup was to get her prepared for bearing a baby!
Listening to her words, Layla dared not to reply. She had been taking birth control pills secretly, so it was impossible to have a baby. If Haley knew this, there would be consequences, so she could only keep silent.
At dinner, Layla discovered that she had no need to be worried about eating enough at all. She even didn't need to put food on her own, because Haley had done that for her, putting fish and other delicious meat into her bowl, which was a treatment that Trevor never had before.
Moreover, Haley instructed Trevor continually, "Trevor, look after Layla well and make sure she eats more."
"Layla, eat more!" Haley was smiling, for it seemed that the more Layla ate, the more likely she could bear a child.
After that dinner, Layla was not only full, but also stuffed. Trevor gloated about that scene, looking at Layla "enjoying" all of it.
When they were back home, he said to her, "Honey, Mum is desperate for a grandson. Don't take pills anymore, and have a baby for her!"
"I'm just eighteen, still a student!" Layla was not willing to do that.
"When I want a son, if anybody dares to block the way, I'll kill him! Mum was right. I'm no longer young, and I'd better prepare to have a son earlier." Saying that, Trevor could not wait anymore. To have a child, the first thing was to do his favorite exercise.
"You mean you just like sons, not daughters, right?" Layla asked hesitantly. If Trevor's family kept forcing her, she had no choice but to bear a baby. However, she was afraid that they had a strong preference for sons, and they would treat her badly if she just gave birth to a girl.
"No more nonsense, honey. We can't decide to bear a boy or a girl. We'd better listen to the arrangement of nature. Anyway, we shall have a baby first no matter what and ask Mum to handle things for us, in case she chatters all day long. Nevertheless, I still need to have a son in the end, to succeed Trevor's family business." While talking, Trevor held Layla to the bedroom.
Layla finally understood, Trevor did have a preference for boys, but he was right that she couldn't decide the gender of her baby. However, she did not want to give birth to any child right now!
Maybe, it was his words made her unhappy. Trevor worked very hard on his own, while Layla didn't cooperate.
"Honey, you behave badly today. Come on, kiss me!" Trevor leaned to kiss her, but Layla just pecked his chin. In fact, she wanted to kiss his lips, but she was absent-minded, so she did not find the right position.
Trevor frowned and lowered his head, biting her thin lips. Layla pushed him away instinctively. "It hurts!"
"This is your punishment." When he finished that, he bit her soft earlobe.
"Stop biting me. I know it's my fault. I'll do more, now." Layla still felt hurt, so she had to beg for his mercy.
Trevor seemed to have seen through her thoughts. He said softly, "Don't worry. I like both sons and daughters, and I'll treat them equally. So, relax, just don't give me a freak."
"But... I... I've taken lots of pills. Maybe they'll have an influence on my body, so let's wait for a better moment! What if I give birth to an unhealthy one, you'll definitely punish me." Layla felt a bit helpless, for she did worry about bearing a baby. She was just eighteen, and she herself was still immature: how could she give birth to a child! Moreover, Trevor's family paid much attention to children, and Trevor also talked about it, which made her more nervous.
"Well, then stop the pills for while. Don’t worry about money, and then let's have a perfect baby." Trevor said, lying above her body.
Although he did much exercise that night, he was still very energetic the next day, sitting in the office and dealing with the documents.
"Mr. Moore, here is the lunch." His right-hand man sent him lunch, but it was his secretary Luna who often did it for him.
"Put it here. I'll take it after this one." Looking at the file, Trevor said.
"There's something I need to report to you!" Andrew told Trevor, who buried his head in his work.
Trevor didn't look up until he heard his words, "What's up?"
"Actually, it's about your personal affairs. Some friends in the underworld tell me, there's someone investigating you and your wife." Andrew said. Although it was about Trevor's personal affairs, he thought he had to tell him.
Andrew and Trevor were classmates in the college, and the best friends after many years. There was nearly no secret about Trevor's personal affairs between them, and Andrew was actually his trusted follower.
"Do you know who he is?" Trevor asked.
"I've done some digging. There are two people, and both of them are from Dervay Saints Academy." At that, Trevor clenched his fist. His little wife did make him worry. It was merely the beginning of a semester, but she had drawn two people's attention to investigate them.
"One is Reed Franklin, in the same department and same class with your wife. He's the sole heir to Franklin Group, which has shares in Dervay Saints Academy' and some forces in Avalon. It also has a complex network in Glenora Province. Another one is Zion Oren, president of FLY Dance Club, which your wife joined in. Oren family has deep roots in Europe, and there are also many branches in China. Oren family has relationship with both the underground and the government, and their connections cannot be underestimated." Before this report, Andrew had done a detailed investigation.
"What have they found?" Trevor asked with a frown.
"They just uncovered her background, but don't know her relationship with you. Your marriage is not an easy matter for them because we've taken complete security measures. Now, we've begun to change the public opinion, telling the public that you are cooperating with Layla's family company; therefore, you have a closer relationship with Layla's family. This can basically help cover the fact." Andrew said slowly. If he didn't handle it well, he dared not to do the report.
"Good job. Collect the information of the two and their families. They are still wet behind the ears. The more detailed, the better." Trevor suppressed the anger in his heart, and he did not forget himself in front of Andrew because of Layla's affairs. However, he would figure out who the two boys were, for they dared to cast their eyes on his wife.
Andrew had expected that Trevor would want that information, so he just said, "Before I came, I've done the investigation and sent it to your mail box."
After he left, Trevor read the information he sent, and didn't stop for lunch.
Trevor called his secretary Luna in, "Check my schedule today. What's the arrangement?"
Luna opened her notebook and answered carefully, "You've got an appointment with Mr. Carl from EastRise Group at 1:30 p.m., a board meeting at 3:00 p.m., and an interview with radio station an hour after the meeting. Besides, you need to go to Hously Hotel at 5 p.m. for the entrepreneur reception tonight."
"Delay them for me." Trevor said. He had no mood for work; all he cared about was his naughty little wife.
"Mr. Moore, you've delayed your appointment about supply with Mr. Carl once for an emergency last time. If we delay it again, it might be a bit..." Luna didn't finish her words on purpose. She was just a secretary, and she couldn't blame her boss, but facing this kind of situation, she must remind the boss.
"Delay it again. Be polite. If he doesn't agree, I'll find other suppliers for Moore Group, other than Bentley Carl." After that, Trevor left the office.
He didn't realize that he put down his work again for his little wife.
