Chapter 2172 - 506: Flaunting Love, Flaunting the Child
The assistant has been with Huo Zun for several years, and knows Hua Nuan’s temperament well.
"Hmm, it’s nothing, what’s up?"
"Mr. Huo has already submitted an application for the young master’s title to the British Royal Family."
Hua Nuan: "..."
What?
Young master?
Title?
Hua Nuan pulled at the corner of her mouth, not quite grasping the deeper meaning of the assistant’s words for a moment.
"What young master?"
"It’s your child... Even though we don’t yet know if it’s a boy or a girl, Mr. Huo has already submitted applications for a princess and a title to the British Royal Family."
Hua Nuan: "..."
Isn’t this too capricious?
Hua Nuan tugged at the corners of her mouth, unable to fully process the assistant’s words.
This...
"Submitted to the British Royal Family, barring any surprises, the title will be issued within a week... Besides, once the gender of your child is known within a month, it can be announced whether it’s a princess or an earl."
Hua Nuan: "..."
So all these gimmicks are Huo Zun’s doing?
Heh... Huo Zun has been doing quite a few things behind my back.
Hua Nuan forcibly held back her disdain, pursed her lips, and said: "When did he prepare all this?"
"Mr. Huo, he began planning after he knew you were pregnant."
Hua Nuan: "..."
So high-profile.
Hua Nuan took a deep breath, pursed her lips, and said: "Hmm, what else has Huo Zun done?"
Noticing that Hua Nuan’s tone seemed a bit off, not sure if she was angry, the assistant suddenly felt uncertain.
Could it be... did I make a blunder?
"Well..."
"Heh... Just a reminder, there are some things that even if you don’t say them, I can find out easily, it’s just a matter of time, you should understand what I mean, we’ve known each other for quite some time, you started working for Huo Zun when I was around, to be frank, I met you around the same time as Huo Zun did."
"Understood."
Hua Nuan smiled in satisfaction and continued: "Hmm, after knowing I’m pregnant, what else has Huo Zun done?"
The assistant, a sensible person, knows well to adapt to the circumstances.
Clearing his throat, the assistant immediately said: "Mr. Huo applied for the child’s title and princess, but to put it plainly, the British Royal Family is more eager, as they hope Mr. Huo continues his business in the UK."
"Additionally, the mother and baby product chain store Mr. Huo invested in should be listed in New York."
Hua Nuan: "..."
This, I didn’t know about.
Looks like Huo Zun is focusing on mother and baby products.
Hua Nuan pursed her lips: "Go on."
"Mr. Huo has scheduled with Time Magazine to shoot a themed poster for its New Year edition, together with you at six months pregnant."
"Hmm, what else?"
"Well... um..."
Hua Nuan listened to the assistant’s hesitant words, the corners of her lips tugged ever so slightly, muttering lowly.
"Seems like there’s some big news you haven’t told me, go on now..."
"Well... the first news report about your pregnancy was leaked by Mr. Huo."
Hua Nuan: "..."
Truly infuriating.
Can’t stop now.
Hua Nuan clenched her small hands, listened to the assistant’s words, and said: "You mean... the insider source... this insider was Huo Zun."
"Yes."
Hua Nuan: "..."
You guard against thieves every day and night, but it’s the house thief you can’t guard against.
So irritating.
So it was this rascal causing trouble.
Suppressing her anger, Hua Nuan tugged at her lips, pursed her lips: "Did he instruct you to do this?"
"Um..."
Hua Nuan seemed to think of something, her beautiful eyes lit up.
"As I recall, three days ago in the meeting room... about Huo Zun missing my checkup report, this..."
The assistant noticed the hint in Hua Nuan’s words, squeezed out a weak smile, and spoke softly: "Actually, I wasn’t an accomplice with Mr. Huo before... It wasn’t until I read the file contents aloud that I realized I became one."
Implying that the assistant had sold Huo Zun out.
Hua Nuan: "..."
Well, well, well, Huo Zun.
Tonight I’m going to make sure he kneels on the washboard.
After speaking, the assistant couldn’t help but feel a shiver of fear, wondering if the lady was angry.
No, no, she must be angry.
The lady’s temperament is quite well-known, her wildness only Mr. Huo can tame.
Thinking of this, the assistant couldn’t help but realize he seemed to be kicking someone while they’re down.
"Madam, did I just say something I shouldn’t have?"
With a bright smile, Hua Nuan’s lips twitched upward at the assistant’s words.
"No, you did well."
Clenching her tiny hand, Hua Nuan heard the sound of the water in the bathroom being turned off, then spoke.
"I have something very important later, Huo Zun too, if there’s nothing else, don’t call him."
Assistant: "..."
Cold sweat was breaking out.
The assistant gulped, silently mourning for Huo Zun.
"Okay, yes, madam, I understand."
"Hmm."
Hua Nuan’s lips curved upwards as she quickly hung up the phone, leisurely sitting on the bed, her small hand resting on her flat belly.
Little one.
Didn’t expect Huo Zun to like him so much, and fond of high-profile shows too.
Hua Nuan’s lips curved into a faint happy smile.
Earlier anger and dissatisfaction now seemed like all the man’s affection for their child.
However...
This excessive behavior must be curbed.
Playing his own game.
Heh, even dared to deceive me.
This Huo Zun indeed has quite the audacity...
He must be taught a lesson.
Hua Nuan squinted her beautiful eyes, just as she heard the bathroom door open, the man walked straight towards her.
Hua Nuan’s beautiful eyes flashed a profound and cunning glint.
