The Problem with Marrying Rich: Out of the Way, Ex - Chapter 366

Chapter 366: They Felt Bad for Mr. Mo

Li Qin’s eyes widened and she looked very bewildered.

“I didn’t….”

Then, she looked at those two huge bags of toys.

Wu Xiaomin and Lin Yanyan could only put the two bags of toys down. They guessed that Mr. Mo and the Old Madame were probably enraged because they had been out the whole day.

“Madame, Sir, we’re really sorry for not informing you earlier but we went to the toy shop to buy Mo Ye some toys so we were a little late to return,” Wu Xiaomin quickly explained. She looked at Li Qin, then at Mo Yixuan but there was a trace of sympathy in her eyes now as she looked at them. She felt sorry for them at the thought that this was probably the end of the Mo bloodline and wondered if they would be able to take such a huge blow.

Mo Yixuan looked at the two bags of toys on the floor and his eyes narrowed slightly. Then, he suddenly looked up at Wu Xiaomin and Lin Yanyan who were clearly behaving oddly today.

After he hired the new nanny, these two girls were not that close to Mo Ye and could not possibly buy so many toys without a good reason. They had even used their own money to purchase these toys.

Wu Xiaomin and Lin Yanyan shrank back when they noticed his gaze on them.

“What did you actually see at the hospital?” Mo Yixuan asked coldly, his gaze sharpening. What was it that suddenly spurred these two 22-year-old girls to discover their maternal side and buy so many toys for Ye Ye?

Wu Xiaomin and Lin Yanyan looked at each other and they both felt a little conflicted and couldn’t decide whether they should speak frankly.

“Uh…” Wu Xiaomin said after she coughed twice. “Sir, we went to see Sister He. She seemed very well and in good spirits. Her daughter was really beautiful too.”

Wu Xiaomin said neutrally and ended off with an awkward laugh.

Lin Yanyan chimed in, “Yes, sir. We also managed to carry out our mission to perfection. She did not notice your gift either.”

Confusion flashed past his face and he suddenly clenched his fingers tightly. He couldn’t help but feel that these two girls were a little out of sorts today.

“How about the picture? Did you take photographs?” he asked coldly. He suspected that these two girls might not have managed to see Yan Yan or had been stopped by Ye Hao before they could enter and lied that they completed their mission to get a bonus from him. They might have even sold his present which also explained why they had taken so long to return.

Mo Yixuan’s face darkened at the thought that he might have been tricked or betrayed and his eyes flashed with anger.

Lin Yanyan hurriedly took out her phone when she saw that he was about to explode in anger. “I did but I only managed to take a few photographs since there was someone there who forbade us from taking photographs.”

Then, she opened her camera roll and handed her phone over to him and shot Wu Xiaomin a look.

Mo Yixuan took her phone and stared at the photograph on the screen.

His wife was lying on a white hospital bed in the photograph and there was a blissful smile on her face. A newborn was cradled in her arms but due to the camera’s angle, he couldn’t see the newborn’s face. However, his heart suddenly ached as though someone had stuck a knife through it.

The woman he loved had given birth but he was not the father. He didn’t even have the right to visit her.

He could tell from this photograph alone that she was extremely happy. She had never smiled so happily even when they were together.

Mo Yixuan pursed his lips bitterly and the disappointment was clear in his eyes.

Li Qin also closed her eyes and no one saw the flash of heartache and regret in her eyes.
