638 Getting the Apartment Ready - Part 3
Saturday, continued …
While she was considering Ton\'s change in attitude was permanent, the outcome of her doctor\'s visit yesterday made that even more important.? As she had been unwell for a couple of weeks, Yao Tan finally convinced her to go to the doctors, and they found out she was about six to eight weeks pregnant.? As they had quietly talked last night it would only be around six or seven weeks before she reached the point that they would be comfortable in announcing their pregnancy.? They both hoped that he would assist them in dealing with the inevitable childish reaction from Junior.
In talking they realised they were lucky.? They had not been hit with disaster after disaster that Anna had at the start of her pregnancy.? Yao Tan however reminded her that she should not speak too early, but that he would support her to work as long as possible into her pregnancy until she went on maternity leave.
The funny thing was that he said if she wanted to go back to work quickly, he would ensure the baby was placed in the XF International Staff Creche so he could keep an eye on their child.? Amanda recalled that that caused an argument, as she wanted to use the Hou Enterprises Staff Creche.? However, Yao Tan ended up winning the argument as he reminded her that it would be unlikely Hou Yi would allow his bodyguards into the building to keep watch over their child.
Amanda realised that Tan had been right, but that meant she would have to decide that she was avoiding during her pregnancy.? Would she return to Hou Enterprises; try to move to XF International\'s legal department; go and work in private practice or become a stay at home mum. The last option was something that she did not want to really consider as it had been a long hard fight to go to university and study law, let alone get a job.
The idea of dealing with a baby scared her.? Yao Tan however was constantly reassuring her that he was an old hand at dealing with babies, and even joked that he had three times the work when he was younger than the triplets are now, so this should be easy. ??Despite his constant reassurances all Amanda could do is worry about how the triples would react to a new sibling at their age.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，
Having reached the restaurant where they told Ton they would wait, Amanda and Anna sat down, having a tea and something to eat while Ton was doing the last few purchases. Amanda decided that she would carefully question Anna about various things with her pregnancy. Yes, Tan had been through the whole pregnancy thing with the triplets\' birth mother, but she wanted an idea as to what she would be in for, from a friend.
Just as they finished their food and drink, Ton arrived back with the bodyguard, and said "Mum, Anna, the stores have already arranged for the last things to be sent to the apartment by special courier. I called Sally, and she said …"
At that exact moment a young girl came running in and threw herself at Ton, and gave him a quick kiss on the lips, before turning and saying "Madam Yao, is it nice to see you again. Ton called me and said that you might need some help for Alecia."
Amanda stood up and gave Sally a brief kiss before saying "Sally, a pleasure to see you again. What did I tell you, my name is Amanda. When you say Madam Yao, I still go looking for my mother-in-law." Amanda paused and turned to Anna, before continuing "Sally this is my friend Anna, she is married to Alecia\'s god-father."
Sally could only stutter "Madam Hou."
Taking her time to stand up, Anna responded "My name is Anna. It also happens that I am Alecia\'s husband James\' sister."
Sally nodded, and said "Amanda, Ton asked me if I could come and help you finish arranging most things in Alecia\'s apartment. When I spoke to her Thursday, she asked me to be involved as she was worried if her father was in control the apartment would not be anything she liked. I figured it was the least I could do for her."
Amanda nodded, and said "Lets head back so we can get most of this finished. Sally do you want to come with us?"
"If possible."
With that the four of them headed out to the cars that they came in. Amanda realised that this had been planned before they left the apartment, otherwise why would Ton have insisted on two cars, as they could have fitted into one car.
