The CEO’s Lovely Wife - Chapter 240

Silence descended in Lexus’ office.

His eyes only showed a little bit of shock but this did not even last for more than a second before it returned to being still and calm. He walked to October’s side and hugged her, giving her reassurance.

He burried his face on her neck and smelled her but didn’t say anything. He can feel the deep seated anger from her body. It had to be said that he was moved for her deep concern on him. It was really warm.

“I’m sorry.” October finally muttered softly, feeling upset about the things that had transpired. She did not take into account that Lu Xing would suddenly attack her and that Lexus would be hurt while shielding her. She lowered her head.

“It’s not your fault.” He said. But there was no other response from the woman in his arms. “I’m just glad that you’re fine.”

October twisted around to face Lexus. She scanned his face but then frowned as soon as her eyes landed on that marks on his cheek. Her face crumbled as sadness and distress showed on her eyes. It felt like her heart was bleeding while looking at his wound.

“You’re hurt because of me.” She said. “Where’s your first aid kit?”

“…in the drawer of that side table.” He replied while directing his eyes toward the side table on one corner of his office.

“You have a grandma.”

“…” Lexus pursed his lips for a moment before nodding. “Yes.”

After that, the two did not say anything more.

October concentrated on cleaning and disinfecting the wounds on his face before putting a plaster on it. Still, her brows were tightly furrowed together.

“Let’s go.” Lexus said and gently pulled October from the sofa. October merely nodded her head and let herself be dragged by Lexus.

Lexus confidently strode out of the building while holding October’s hand. His face that was flawless and so perfect now has a plaster on his cheek. Still, his extremely good-looking face was not buried by just that plaster. Instead, he looked more sharp and dashing in his current image with a beauty in tow.

It was really a sight to see.

This display made all suspicions in the building to clear and erupted in a flury of gossip. Because of the large-scale display, this eventually got out of the building and made it’s way toward the media that was thirsty for juicy news.

October and Lexus, who were making their way to the hospital for October’s prenatal check-up, did not know that their relationship had already circulated and posted on many websites and on Weibo. However, that did not matter. Their relationship will sooner or later be revealed and it seemed that it was about time that their marriage be known to the public.

When the ultrasound started, the fetus in October’s w.o.m.b had already developed a head, limbs, and ears. Lexus was again excited about it.

“What about the gender? The baby’s a “she” right?” He asked, eyes sparkling in anticipation.

“No, sir. The gender in the first trimester is not yet determined. That usually happens during the second trimester of pregnancy, betweem eighteen to twenty-two weeks.” Doctor Cui answered with a light smile on her face.

Regarding this two very attractive couple, she was excited and looking forward to the child to be born. With such genes, what kind of beauty will the baby have? It’s really exciting.

“Oh.” Lexus felt dejected as he held his wife’s hand and looked at her exposed belly.

“Don’t be too impatient.” October coolly said while laying on the bed and looked at the monitor. She was quite emotional too but she held it in.

Doctor Cui circled around October’s belly for a moment before she noticed something peculiar. She squinted her eyes and looked intently on the screen. She frowned and fell deep in thought before a gasp of surprise escaped her lips. Her widened eyes that was sparkling in delight turned to look at October then to Lexus before looking back on October.

This strange behaviour and that gasp that the doctor made October and Lexus look at the doctor strangely. They don’t know had what happened that made the doctor act like this.

“Is there something wrong, doctor?” October asked feeling anxious about the well-being of her child. She unconsciously tightened her hold on Lexus’ hand which in turn he squeeze to calm her.

“Oh my, no. There’s nothing wrong.” Doctor Cui laughed as her smile widened and her face flushed. “Congratulations, Mr Song and Mrs Song. You have two babies.”

“…” October

“…!” Lexus blinked his eyes, incredulous. “How many?”

“Two.” Doctor Cui sheepishly grinned at them as she repeated. “You have twins.”

“Ha…haha…hahaha.” Lexus’s composure broke as he laughed loudly in the doctor’s office. He was so ecstatic that he just could not contain the happiness that he was feeling.

His excited eyes that glistened with moisture from tears that formed on the corner of his eyes looked at October warmly. He bent down and kissed her forehead.

“You worked hard, my wife.” He said smilingly. “Thank you.”

“Twins…” October repeated softly to herself. She looked at Lexus then the grinning doctor and knew that that was indeed true.

Her head then turned to look at the monitor and sure enough, she could see another baby right behind the baby that they first saw during the first check-up.

‘Twins…I am carrying two lives in my w.o.m.b.’ October could not believe it. This…this was her best blessing of all.

After that surprise and some excited chat about having twins, October and Lexus finally went to their next destination: the mall.

“Are you sure you are giving this to me?” October raised her brow at Lexus while looking at the black card that Lexus had given her. “But…”

“Yes, that’s yours. You can’t give it back. I make money and that money is not small. This little bit of money is just your daily allowance.” He arrontly and overbearingly said as he pulled October toward one of the high-end store that an internationally renowned designer owned. This designer was one of the talents of the Heaven Company.

“Good afternoon, master and madam. Please let me assist you.” An assistant came forward, politely greeting October and Lexus.

“Pick anything you like.” Lexus smugly said this October. He then told the assistant, “Call your designer. Tell him that I’m here.”

October looked around and something dawned on her: this was not a store where she could buy her usual business suit.

“These are all dresses and gowns.” She said and raised her brow at Lexus. “I don’t need to buy these types of clothes.”

Lexus waved his hand lightly and returned October’s suspicious look with a sweet smile of his.

“Don’t worry about those little details. I’ve already called the designer to make something for you.”

“Stop joking like that.” October felt helpless.

“I’m not. He’s an aquaintance of mine so there’s no need for you to worry.” He grinned and called the assistant to help his wife find a suitable dress for her.

“Lex~us” A body full of muscles suddenly flashed across the store and stopped just in front of Lexus with his drool almost dripping from the corner of his lips. “I’ve missed you so much. Give me a kiss.”

Lexus, with his good reflexes, evaded the assault that came from the innermost room the the building.

The burly man hugged air before drooping, feeling very sad . “You’re mean.”

Lexus ignored him completely and walked toward the astonished man. His cold eyes suddenly melted and was replaced with a warm and doting smile.

“Make a business suit for her.”

“What?! Boss, are you being serious right now?! Do you know that it is not easy to make such designs especially on such a very short notice.”

Lexus only waved his hand. “Just do it.”
