Chapter 1168 Blessing in Disguise
Mason finally let down his walls and looked at Janet vulnerably.
Janet patted the man’s head and chuckled. “You have to get another injection tomorrow.”
In fact, he didn’t need another shot, but since the virus had been in his body for 4 days, the second shot was necessary to build his resistance to the virus.
Mason took Janet’s hand, then cupped her face and kissed her lips. “How can you be so gentle, Darling?”
Originally, she was a person with thorns all over her body, so she was difficult to approach. However, before he knew it, her temperament became gentler by the day.
She was capable and caring; it was hard for anyone to not love her more and more.
Janet pursed her lips. Then, she put her hand on her stomach inadvertently and said lightly, “Fortunately, you managed to hang in there for me.”
An unknown emotion flashed across Mason’s eyes, and all of a sudden, there was a bit of sadness in his eyes. “Babe, when I found out that you gave me to another woman, my heart felt hollow. No matter what, I don’t want our relationship to have any misunderstanding—all I want is you, and you alone.”
Janet took his hand and lowered her head.
She then murmured in his ear, “If it wasn’t the last resort, how could I be willing to let you go? Fortunately, you kept your innocence for me.”
With that, she rubbed her teeth on his neck, as if deliberately proving her existence.
Mason closed his eyes slightly while enjoying it a little. He then said cautiously, “Don’t pierce my skin.”
Janet chuckled lightly and kept moving. “It’s fine.”
Both of them conveyed all their emotions of the past few days to each other while quietly listening to each other’s heartbeats.
In the next second, Mason got up and pressed on top of her. “You want it?”
“No.” Janet shook her head with a smile.
“I do, though.” The man’s voice was low, somewhat suave and hoarse.
Janet was speechless from hearing his answer.
Reaching out to his chin, she touched the stubble he had grown over the past few days. “Hm. You’re quite energetic—it seems that I was worried for nothing.”
If she knew that he could return to normal so soon, she wouldn’t have worried about him so much.
Mason chuckled softly, savoring the taste between her lips.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the door.
Janet was stunned for a moment before she quickly pushed the man away from her.
However, to her dismay, someone from outside broke in before she could get out of bed.
“Cough, cough!”
Everyone looked embarrassed, and they kept coughing to cover up their embarrassment.
Janet frowned but quickly regained her composure.
“Janet, the two of you have just recovered, so you’d better rest. After all, you’ll have all the time to do whatever you want when you both are finally stabilized.” Herbert stood aside and reminded them ‘considerately’.
Janet raised her eyes and asked expressionlessly, “Do I need you to remind me?”
Herbert reached up and covered his mouth while fake-coughing.
Right then, Henry pulled Lara, who was standing beside the corner with a depressed face, into the room and said, “Miss Lara, didn’t you just say that Mr. Lowry is a beast? Tell me: What did he do?”
Lara raised her eyes and glanced carefully at Janet.
Janet’s expression was slightly restrained, and her dark eyes flashed.
Seeing Janet’s expression, Mason squinted his eyes immediately and stared at her. “Babe, what are you guys trying to communicate through telepathy?”
Hearing that, Janet looked at the crowd and clicked her tongue.
It seemed that she had to say it now.
“I…” She lowered her eyes and fiddled her fingertips slightly. “I’m pregnant.”
Her cold and indifferent voice landed, and the scene turned dead silent.
Pregnant?
She’s pregnant?!
Dozens of pairs of eyes at the scene all landed on Janet’s flat abdomen.
Henry opened his mouth in disbelief. He couldn’t even finish his sentence and stuttered, “J-Janet, did you say that you’re… pregnant?”
Janet didn’t raise her eyes. Her ears were a little red, and she nodded casually. “Yeah…”
Everyone present at the scene widened their eyes again.
“Oh, my God! This is fantastic news!”
“What a blessing in disguise!”
“There is finally a successor to the Lowry family!”
“Old Madam Lowry would be so happy to hear of this!”
