chapter 1588

It had only been a little over ten days since he last saw her, and Jane's belly seemed to

have grown much bigger in size. For the past ten days in white Ocean city, Alex had been

quite free and, when he had nothing to do, he could, from Kidon City, consult doctors from

White Ocean City and do research online by himself. He came to learn a lot about

pregnant women and learnt that the further along the pregnancy, the faster the fetus would

grow. Indeed, after merely ten days, Jane had changed drastically. However, she was still

extremely thin and her face was still pale without any color; her clothes were still ragged,

barely covering her, when in fact, it seemed that was simply because her belly had grown

too big to be covered. ’

She was holding a teapot and refilling drinks for the guests. She was clearly the odd one

out as she walked around the restaurant in her state between elites of white Ocean city,

especially when she came across Alex.

White Ocean City was situated at the furthest north of the northeastern region, and it was

the peak of the winter season. Even men as muscular and tall as Alex were wearing suits

under long trench-coats. His outfit, along with his identity, had created a sense of

incomparable majesty in his presence. The polished military boots that he was wearing

only added to the aura of maturity that oozed from him.

In the end, the two were extremely different. Luckily, Jane no longer cared about it and only

saw Alex as a stranger.

The corridor was narrow and he stood in the middle as he observed her intently. She held

onto a teapot as she moved with her pregnant belly, and realized that she had to walk past

him. She lowered her head and whispered, " Excuse me, please... Let me through."

Alex continued to stare at her like he did not hear a word.

"..." Jane lifted her chin to look at Alex and found him frowning with a cold expression.

Before she could say anything, someone behind her started yelling.

A woman's voice came through, "Hey, pregnant lady! Are you blind? Don't you see Master

Alex of Kidon city standing there? why is a servant who serves drinks like yourself getting

this close to him? Trying to get Master Alex's attention? You? Hmph! Get out of here right

now!"

Jane had seen the woman who was scolding her, and it was the same woman who was

fighting with another lady at the restaurant the day before. Apparently, this woman was

looking to make an appearance in front of Alex and do him a favor. ’

"Get away from Master Alex." She shoved Jane aside and glared at her in contempt before

looking back to Alex in a flattering manner. "I'm so sorry about that, Mr. Poole. It was my

brother's idea to throw a welcoming party here at this restaurant for you; he was supposed

to clear this place out before you arrived. It's my brother's fault for not tossing this woman

out. This woman is just a janitor. I saw her cleaning the place yesterday; why has she

become the waitress today? Perhaps she is out here on her own initiative. People

nowadays, especially those bloggers or whatever, are all desperate to become famous;

this one here is probably trying to make an impression too."

The woman falsely concluded Jane's character in a few words, and commanded her in an

arrogant tone, "Go back to where you are supposed to be. You can come back out to clean

when everything is over!"

Jane bowed her head. "Okay." She turned to leave and saw Ivy.

Ivy blocked Jane's way and sneered. "Jane Sheen! Why is a janitor who cleans the kitchen

out here? You must really want to see Mr. Poole!" She paused to smile at Alex and

continued, "I'm sorry, Master Alex. This woman has wanted to see you the entire time and

well; she just snuck out and came here to see you. I think you have gone too easy on her.

Ivy was now the newest favorite of Lenny. She often sat on his lap and listened to him talk

to Alex through the phone so she knew that during Alex's trip to White Ocean City, Lenny

had formed the closest connection to him.
