Chapter 1244 - Chapter 1244 Chapter 1243 Coming to the Door

Chapter 1244: Chapter 1243: Coming to the Door Chapter 1244: Chapter 1243: Coming to the Door Upon hearing Zhou Shengting’s words, Bai Lan still felt very sad.

How could she have ever anticipated such things happening to her? Life was indeed full of twists and turns.

Was it possible that her happiness had made the heavens too envious?

After the doctor left, Zhou Shengting embraced Bai Lan, wanting to offer her some comfort.

His heart was heavy too, but not because of the child. It was because Bai Lan, the woman he loved, was sick.

He still couldn’t accept this reality even now.

Bai Lan clung tightly to his waist, burying her face deeply into his embrace.

He had a soothing, steady presence that made her feel at ease.

“It’s okay, there’s nothing to worry about, we’ll face the difficulties together,” Zhou Shengting said as he patted her back.

After returning home, Zhou Shengting settled Bai Lan down and then called his assistant to contact a domestic agency for a diligent Auntie.

Previously, they had wanted their own space and only hired a part-time cleaner.

Now, considering Bai Lan’s condition, Zhou Shengting thought she shouldn’t overwork herself, so he decided to hire someone to take care of her.

Bai Lan, knowing this, reluctantly said, “Actually, I feel quite alright, I’m feeling pretty good now.”

“We’re doing it this way, just listen to me this time,” Zhou Shengting said in an uncompromising manner.

He could let other things slide, but not when it came to her health; on this matter, he couldn’t yield.

Considering her current condition, Bai Lan finally nodded her head, reaching an agreement.

…

The Auntie found by the secretary, surnamed Zhou, was a spirited woman around fifty, clean and comfortable in appearance.

After Bai Lan told her about the chores that needed to be done each day, Auntie Zhou got to work busily.

Seeing her work systematically and diligently, Bai Lan was reassured.

She needed to recuperate slowly with her current health condition.

As the days passed by, Bai Lan’s health slowly improved.

The life that Zhou Shengting and Bai Lan led was ordinary but sweet.

However, one person became somewhat restless, and that was Zhou’s mother; since Zhou Shengting married Bai Lan, he seldom returned to the family estate.

Zhou’s mother knew that Zhou Shengting was doing it on purpose, but apart from feeling helpless, she had no other solutions.

One day, unable to hold back any longer, Zhou’s mother took her purse and went to Zhou Shengting’s place. After ringing the doorbell, she found that the door was opened by a middle-aged woman.

She was startled and wondered, wasn’t this Sheng Ting’s home? Why was there a stranger? Had she gone to the wrong place?

So, she took a careful look at the house number again, and it was indeed the right place.

“Hello, may I help you?” Auntie Zhou saw a well-to-do lady standing at the door with neatly combed hair, carrying an expensive purse, yet with a somewhat cold and indifferent expression, as if someone owed her millions.

“Is this Sheng Ting’s home?” asked Zhou’s mother, her eyebrows furrowed.

“Yes, yes, this is the master’s home. Are you looking for him? Please come in,” Auntie Zhou immediately nodded when she heard Zhou Shengting’s name.

Auntie Zhou had experienced life with various affluent families and could guess the identity of the woman standing before her.

“And you are?” Zhou’s mother had an idea but wanted to make sure.

“I am the one the master hired to take care of Madam,” Auntie Zhou, being honest, answered upon being asked.

Upon hearing this, Zhou’s mother’s expression became even more somber. What? Taking care of that woman?

Indeed, she was a conniving bitch, starting to enjoy herself already, just shortly after getting married.
