Chapter 617 - London Schneiders Logic (1/2)

Lately, whenever London wasn't busy with work, he would spend a lot of time reading references about pregnancy and babies.

There was so much information that he thought to be very interesting and he had never cared about before. For example, the gender of the baby can be known after five months of gestation. So, he couldn't wait for the next month, when he would be able to find out the gender of his future child.

In contrast to his brother and sister-in-law, who didn't want to know about their child's gender before they were born, London was very curious.

This was a very thrilling experience for him because he really didn't know what to expect. He didn't like a situation where he didn't have enough preparation and knowledge to handle it. That was why he read so much and tried to find as much information as he could.

”Jan, did you know? A child's intelligence and height are actually inherited from their mother,” London commented, lowering the book he was reading when Jan entered his room carrying a stack of doc.u.ments.

”I didn't know,” Jan answered. He then placed the doc.u.ments on London's table and shrugged, ”Your child will be short then. Miss L is only 157 cm tall, after all”

London glared at his assistant's blunt remark. He didn't need another to tell him that for him to know. He himself was quite tall, being 183 cm and very proportional, but if the height of the child is dependent on the genetic construction of the mother, then his child from L will indeed be short.

In his heart, he hoped his child would be born a girl. This was because a short petite girl would actually look cute and adorable, but a short boy might grow up feeling inferior.

”I regret telling you now,” London grumbled after hearing Jan's words just now. He placed the book on the table and examined some of the doc.u.ments that Jan had just delivered and jotted something down on some of the numbers written there. ”I've reviewed these two reports and written down my opinions. You can bring these to the lunch meeting. I have to go somewhere.”

”Yes, Sir.”

Jan didn't need to ask to know that his boss's business must have to do with L.

***

As he promised L this morning, at 12 noon, London arrived at their apartment to take L to the studio.

KNOCK KNOCK.

”Are you ready?” he asked L, who was grooming herself in front of the mirror. He was puzzled to see how murky her face looked. L turned to him and weakly shook her head.

”Ugh... I can't find clothes that can cover my stomach...” she complained.

Indeed, after four months of pregnancy, the bulge in L's stomach began to be visible. Her body was small and slim, so even the smallest changes would be clearly visible, and this included the bulging of her stomach.

Her pair of black eyes began to be moistened with tears.
