Chapter 958 - Sweet Momma (2/2)

”I think so,” said Darren as he heaved a sigh of relief. He had been so worried since his mother came and started crying. He thought something unforeseen happened. His heart was about to come out of his ċhėst because of worry but in the end, it turned out to be like this. He was soon going to get a brother or a sister.

Xiu clapped her hand and screamed in excitement, ”Oh my gosh! That's such happy news! Why are we sitting like someone is dying?” She patted her ċhėst, ”I almost scared myself to death. Good thing, I have a good heart, or else, I'd have fainted with anxiety by now.”

Hearing her cheerful voice, the kids ran in and Ava's voice rang in, ”Xiu, what happened?”

”Because we have happy news,” answered Xiu with a big grin on her face.

”Happy news? Should I pull out my emergency confetti stash?” asked Ava in excitement.

”Yes, you should!” said Xiu.

”Yay!” Ava hurriedly pulled out a handful of confetti from her pocket and threw it around.

Francesca buried her head in her hands once again but this time she wasn't crying. In fact, she didn't know what she was feeling at all.

”Should we celebrate it?” asked Asteria. ”Since it's happy news, we should share it, right?”

”Of course!” agreed Xiu. This was such huge and explosive news. How could they not celebrate it? She was all ready to make a huge deal out of it! She looked at Han Yiheng and inquired, ”What did the doctor say? Is something wrong?”

”No, although her age is not that suitable, they still think with proper care it won't be a problem at all.”

Xiu let out the last stroke of worry in her heart, ”Then why was Mama crying about it? Even I didn't cry when I found out I was pregnant. And I was someone who...” 'despised kids.' was left unsaid as Xiu looked at the faces of the three kids lingering around her. Oh, right! She was no longer that old self.

Now, her whole life actually revolved around kids. What progress!

”Momma, can I get cake tonight?” asked Rowan as he happily tugged at Xiu's leg. ”Happy news is incomplete without cake.”

”Oh, and why is that?” asked Han Yiheng in amusement as he pulled this grandson over.

”Baba said happy news is sweet like momma. So, we should always have something sweet when we are happy,” told Rowan innocently.

Darren who was being exposed by his son tried his best to control his expressions. He couldn't let them find out that his words actually had a very different meaning. Because the only thing sweet in his life was actually his Sweets!

And he was more than happy to 'eat' his 'Sweets' whether he was happy or sad. Did he really need an excuse?
