CHAPTER 239: TWINS

Bruce did not have any objections to this marriage. He only said, "Margaret is indeed grown up!"

Orlenna sighed. Although she did not want to admit it, she still muttered, "Yes. Usually, a girl at her age had already got married."

"To put it bluntly, I’m still a little reluctant."

Orlenna frowned. Although she usually criticized her daughter, she still felt very uncomfortable when she thought of her daughter getting married.

However, her daughter was almost thirty years old.

"She is so heartless. I wonder what she will be like after getting married."

Bruce did not speak from the side, but Orlenna suddenly felt a bit depressed.

"If she gets married, things are different. I’m afraid that she doesn’t know how to get along with her future family."

When she mentioned it, Orlenna couldn’t help but be a little worried, and she was a little reluctant all of a sudden.

In the end, marrying a daughter was not like marrying a son.

"I asked you to investigate the situation of Julian. Did you check? Although the Jorgansens are prominent in Far City, our family is no worse than them. Margaret should be well-treated when she marries."

"I think I should observe Julian more. Has he still not expressed his opinion?" She needed to worry about both her son and daughter. After all, one was too scheming and the other was heartless. "The Jorgansens won’t have any opinions!"

This was a typical business marriage for them. Even if they beautified the appearance, its essence couldn’t be changed.

"But I think Margaret is not very willing to get married."

Bruce’s voice was very low, and there weren’t many ups and downs, but when Orlenna heard this, she didn’t seem too happy.

"She could marry someone she loved. However, she even dared to sleep with a man."

Fortunately, this man was not that awful. She could accept the Jorgansens.

However, the marriage between the two big families was not that simple.

Moreover, they also understood that as long as the two families had this kind of relationship, there would be no lack of commercial dealings in the future.

She was just afraid that Margaret would feel unhappy if she knew that she had been sold off by her family. After all, young people nowadays were sensitive about that.

Orlenna felt uncomfortable. Originally, she did not want Margaret to find a family with prominent family background. She just hoped that she could be happy for the rest of her life, and it’s good if she marries an ordinary man. However, she slept with Julian.

Both the Andersons and the Jorgansens were famous. This kind of thing could not be ignored. If that was the case, in the future, wouldn’t Margaret become a joke in others’ eyes?

It was difficult to solve this problem.

"Margaret still has a sense of propriety."

Bruce said softly. He did not have too many emotions because of this matter. After all, Margaret was already an adult, and it was only a matter of time before she married.

"She has a sense of propriety? What? If she had a sense of propriety, she wouldn’t have fought with a nameless woman in the water pond. She even made the headlines and went to a hotel with a man. She had no sense of propriety at all."

"If Julian dares to be irresponsible, then don’t blame me for being impolite. I won’t take the loss of this mute."

As soon as she thought of her brainless daughter provoking such a big pit for her, Orlenna felt angry.

Bruce frowned when he heard this. He remembered that after a few days, although the Jorgansens did not refuse, their attitude was not warm either. Although Julian was in River City, he had been busy meeting River City’s clients and had not made a clear statement about what happened at the hotel that day.

"They won’t!"

Bruce said coldly, a trace of coldness flashing across his eyes.

Margaret was not an ordinary woman. She was the eldest daughter of the Anderson family. This kind of thing could not be easily concealed.

Even if Julian did not want to marry Margaret, he still had to give the Anderson family an explanation.

"Julian still hasn’t made a move. You are also busy with business all day. You don’t care about your wife and your sister at all. I don’t know what you really care about."

Bruce was speechless.

Bruce knew that since Orlenna was unhappy, she had to vent her anger on him. To put it bluntly, she was still unwilling to let Margaret get away with this matter.

"Since there is no movement from the Jorgansens, then you should go and remind them. And the Richards Group is holding a fashion design competition. It is really annoying. And Mrs. Richards had acted too much. She should understand that we

are not the people who can be easily bullied."

After Orlenna finished, she suddenly thought of something and her expression changed. "Oh, the fish soup I made for Hilla is still on the pot."

She hurriedly went to the kitchen as if she had changed into another person.

Bruce looked at the two dishes on the table and said lightly, "Since she had acted too much, I’ll break her thoughts."

When Hilla went downstairs, she saw that Bruce and his mother sitting at the dining table and felt surprised.

After the surprise, she felt a little embarrassed. Recently, she felt a little tired from drawing. She did not expect that she would sleep at this time. Fortunately, her mother-in-law did not care.

Hilla had just sat down when Orlenna placed a bowl of warm fish soup in front of her. "I just finished cooking. You got up at the right time."

Orlenna smiled casually. She was very happy that she could take care of Hilla and the baby.

"It tastes good. Thank you, Mom!"

Hilla looked well-behaved. Orlenna sat opposite Hilla with a smile and asked, "Is it time for the prenatal checkup tomorrow? This is your first prenatal checkup after your pregnancy. You should be careful."

To Hilla, she just got pregnant for two months, and the last time she bled, she had only done some quick checkups.

According to the doctor’s request, she should have done the second examination a long time ago, but she was concerned about the fashion competition at that time, so she did not mention this matter to anyone.

Speaking of the prenatal examination, Hilla couldn’t help but feel a little nervous!

...

For Hilla, it was her first time to be a mother, and she was at a loss and didn’t know what to do.

Bruce’s attitude seemed to be the same as hers. They were a pair of young couples, and they did not even know what to do.

Orlenna said, "Bruce, you should be quite busy tomorrow. I will accompany Hilla tomorrow."

Orlenna meant that it was better for her to accompany Hilla for a prenatal checkup.

After all, it was useless for Bruce to be there.

Hilla glanced at Bruce who sat opposite her. As it was the first time to be a mother, she still hoped that Bruce could accompany her.

Orlenna was obviously very interested in the prenatal examination, and naturally, she could not be absent.

Bruce didn’t say anything. Hilla couldn’t help but feel disappointed.

Early in the morning the next day.

Because Hilla got up in the middle of the night and vomited, and she couldn’t sleep at dawn, so she got up early.

Orlenna saw that she had already dressed up and went downstairs. She was a little surprised. "Don’t worry. There will be an expert consultation later. There is no need to get up so early."

Feeling a little embarrassed, Hilla rubbed her hands together and whispered, "Mom, I’m a little hungry."

She almost vomited all the food in her stomach in the middle of the night, and now she was so hungry that she couldn’t lie peacefully in bed.

When Orlenna heard this, she immediately asked, "Are you not feeling well at night?"

Hilla nodded slightly.

Orlenna quickly let her sit down, and then ordered Alexa to bring breakfast, and she brought a cup of hot milk for Hilla.

Hilla just took a sip and put it down. Orlenna saw that she seemed to dislike this smell.

"Don’t you like drinking milk now?"

Hilla nodded. "I feel a little uncomfortable."

Orlenna understood that a woman’s appetite had been changeable for the first few months since she was pregnant, and she was extremely sensitive to the smell.

She was experienced, so how could she pick on Hilla because of that, not to mention

that Hilla was pregnant with Bruce’s baby.

"From now on, I won’t prepare any more milk at home."

Hilla hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly.

She found that she did not like the taste, and she sometimes became particularly picky about food. Even she felt that sometimes her stomach was a little unreasonable.

However, there was no other way. She would only feel uncomfortable after eating those things, and she would vomit them out later.

She had seen Halle pregnant before, but she did not expect it to feel like this.

"Tell me what you want to eat. If you don’t want to eat, don’t force yourself. I’ll get someone to remove it."

Orlenna’s voice was exceptionally gentle, smoothing out the roiling feeling in Hilla’s stomach. She nodded obediently.

During breakfast, Bruce had already come down from the stairs.

They looked at each other, and Hilla said with a surprised expression, "Are you coming with us?"

"Of course."

Bruce took the bag from her hand and turned to open the door with his car keys.

Looking at the man’s broad and tall back, Hilla curled her lips into a smile.

Orlenna, who was at the side, could not help but laugh. "Mom is not stupid. As a father, how can he be lazy?"

Hilla nodded with a red face and followed Orlenna out of the door.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the hospital.

Horton took the initiative to come over today to greet them and accompany them for a prenatal examination.

In the end, it could be seen that Hilla was pregnant with a pair of twin babies.

Orlenna suddenly laughed.

She even found Bruce a lot more pleasing.

"Our family has never had twins before. You have to take good care of yourself. You are not one person now."

Orlenna pulled Hilla’s hand and smiled, pushing her son who wanted to get close to Hilla to one side.

Hilla was in a trance. She didn’t expect that there was not only one baby in her belly, but two.

She touched her flat belly and was glad that she was not willful this time.

For the sake of the babies, she could give up something.

"Mom, it hasn’t even been two months. I don’t feel anything, and I’m not that delicate!"

"Good girl, the babies grew up slowly in your belly. How can you feel anything? If you want to feel anything, you have to wait for them to move. In addition, the doctor said that you had to be careful for the first three months. Moreover, you are pregnant with two babies, so you have to be more careful."

As she said, Orlenna turned her head and glared at her son. She felt that the latter was very careless.

Bruce raised his eyebrows and remained calm.

Watching as they walked further and further away, Horton spoke up, "Margaret has gone to the countryside. She is with Halle. It seems that she does not dare to come back for a while."

Bruce nodded. It was also a good thing that Margaret did not come back. After all, he had to discuss something with Julian. If Margaret was here, it would cause more trouble.

He knew his sister well. With Margaret’s personality, she definitely did not approve of getting married now.

Horton hesitated and said, "Your mother is really willing to let Margaret marry into the Jorgansen family?"

"The Jorgansen family is simple. Moreover, the Jorgansens are now under Julian’s control. If Margaret marries him, she can suffer less."

Julian was in charge of his family, so naturally, Margaret would have a lot of pocket money in the future. This was Margaret’s biggest wish - to be rich and carefree.

Horton did not say anything more and nodded. With Margaret’s temper, she indeed needed a shrewd person to plan for her future.

"However, what do the Jorgansens and Julian mean? Can you trust them?" Horton respected Julian as he was able to make Bruce hand over his sister to him.

This man seemed to rarely come to River City, and he had very few opportunities to meet Bruce. It was really hard to understand what could make Bruce have no doubts about this matter from beginning to end. Even Orlenna agreed.

He knew Orlenna very well. On the surface, she always picked on Margaret, but deep in her heart, she loved her daughter the most. Otherwise, with Margaret’s personality, how could she live a peaceful life for more than twenty years?

"Won’t you know once you see him?"

Bruce suddenly said in a low voice. Horton was surprised. He did not expect Bruce to take the initiative to meet Julian.

Only Margaret and Hilla could let Bruce take the initiative to meet someone. They were both women, and these two women were really hard to deal with!
