Chapter 403 - Bad News (2/2)
...
Meanwhile, not too far away, things were completely contrasting for another couple. By now, Halia was past the 8th month of her pregnancy and was heading into the final stretch. She and Jackson knew the baby would be arriving soon so they were putting their final touches on the nursery and packing a bag in preparation for labor.
At this point, they still didn't know the gender of their child because they wanted it to be a surprise, so everything in the nursery was neutral-colored. ”If we have a boy, what should we name him?” Jackson asked.
Halia thought for a bit and laughed. ”Since you're 'Jack's son' and Emerson is 'Emma's son', we can call our son Halson or Jacksonson,” she joked.
Jackson pinched her on the nose for being cheeky and chuckled, ”Then, what if we have a girl, what will we name her?”
Halia gave her husband a mysterious look and smiled. She had a name in mind but she wanted to surprise him. ”You'll find out when the time comes...”
Jackson hugged his wife and placed a kiss on her forehead. This woman always knew how to keep him on his toes. ”Well, I guess if we have a son this time, I'll have to keep trying for a daughter to find out...” he said with a seductive grin.
Halia felt her body heat up as she looked at the man's grin and heard the suggestive manner of his words. She pulled him closer to her body and whispered in his ear, ”Then, I guess you better start practicing.”
As soon as she said this, Jackson turned his head and planted his lips firmly against hers.
Even though some couples chose not to be intimate during pregnancy, this was not the case for Jackson and Halia. Some men were disgusted by their wife's changing body, and some women lost confidence in themselves, but Jackson simply grew more and more attracted to Halia. She was the mother of his child and every change to her body made him love her more.
Some people think that having s.e.x during pregnancy is dangerous, but not only is it safe, it releases calming hormones and it increases blood flow, which actually benefits the mother and the baby.
After some hot and steamy exercise, Halia lay in Jackson's arms and smiled in satisfaction.
At that moment, Halia received a phone call from Natalie. ”Halia, have you seen the entertainment news?” she asked.
Halia placed Natalie on speaker curiously and swiped to an entertainment news website on her phone. At the very top was an article with the headline: [Gold Digger Avaleigh Makes Boyfriend Open An Agency For Her]. Underneath it, in smaller writing: [Uses her connections to secure endors.e.m.e.nt for Fengtai].
The article not only revealed that Emerson was the boss of AE Entertainment, it also revealed the relationship between Emerson, Jackson, Halia, and Fengtai. It made Avaleigh sound like a schematic person that used everyone around her as stepping stones, and it made Fengtai sound unreliable and biased.
