Chapter 101 - Truth Behind Truth

Jennet couldn't believe her ears the moment she knew of her pregnancy. She found it hard to believe yet hard to ignore. She was just playing around with her husband because she had calculated that she won't ovulate during the time they were together.

But, God of Birth held even greater power than a mere human like her. She just hopes she didn't have to hear such god exists in the first place. She can already picture his laughter of victory which was as annoying as Hue Hedo.

"My lovely wife..." Hue blew in her ear when she sat frozen by his side in the car.

Jennet flinched and immediately smacked her palm over his handsome face. Then, with all her might she pushed his face away.

"Keep your face away for at least a hundred centimetres away from my face." She said, reminding him.

Back at the hospital, the gynaecologist told them to lessen any bed activities during her pregnancy and Jennet thought this will be a good chance for her to tell Hue to keep down with his lust. She had planned to stop him from asking for s** during the period of her pregnancy.

"For the sake of healthy babies, I will not tolerate any seduction from you. You have to hold your urge." She said that to him back at the hospital when they had gotten the result of her pregnancy.

"Umm, in the first two months, it's still safe to be intimate as long as you don't overdo it." The gynaecologist said, interrupting their conversation.

Jennet smiled at the female gynaecologist and said, "On a safer side, I refuse because my husband here," she patted on Hue's hand, "...doesn't know what 'limit' is in the first place." As she said that she chuckled halfway.

Then, she added, "Also, you better tell everyone that their husbands have to stay celibate for an entire year, from the moment their wives knew of their pregnancy. This reminder is especially for those who have intense husbands."

Yes, she had that one kind of an intense husband who doesn't know what it means when someone says 'no' or 'stop'.

The female gynaecologist smiled, "I'll keep that suggestion in mind." She said, wanting to stay on the safer side, neutral. She won't back any of them in this matter.

Now, back inside the car, Jennet was in a dazed when she held the pink pregnancy card in her clutches. They had just returned from the hospital and they were, at the moment sitting inside the car, at the parking area of a supermarket.

She still had that unbelievable look in her face as she kept staring at the red stamp on her card stating about her confirmed and absolutely real pregnancy.

Hue nudged her while taking the card from her hands. He tucked it inside her handbag and said, "Stop staring at the card. It won't do anything even if you give it a death stare. Our babies will keep growing inside you. Just accept the fact that you're pregnant and I am talking about the reality of it." He said softly, looking all happy.

Jennet looked at him. Her face was in deep red. So deep red like a cooked giant lobster.

"It's because of you!" She pointed out in embarrassment. "I was hoping for it to be just a fantasy of reality."

If it wasn't for his sly moves, she wouldn't end up pregnant. If he wasn't good at making her heart beating out of control, she wouldn't end up bearing his children. It was all his fault that she was thrown into a mess right after another mess that just cleared up.

"Since you don't really believe in fantasy, so reality took over. Just brace it, my lovely pregnant wife." Hue smiled widely at her.

Jennet let out a low grunt, displeased at his joke. "Stop joking. I don't like it." She said with a long face.

"This is not a joke." Hue kept saying.

"Stop talking!" She hissed at him.

Hue chuckled beside her and gently whispered, "Do you know why my fantasy became reality, that's because you're awfully adorable which made me so out of control." He said.

"Don't worry, I will stay celibate for an entire year just like you wanted. Once you have fully recovered, I'll then, pounce on you." He added again while patting his chest. Man, he was proud of what he had just said.

His remarks frightened his woman because he had given her warning that he won't let her go after she had fully recovered.

Jennet's eyes widened. That was definitely an advance warning for her. She wouldn't be able to survive all his advances after giving birth to their babies!

"I would... definitely die..." She said with her eyes turned white into despair.

She can already picture how intense her husband would be once the ban is lifted after she gives birth to their children. A little bit she regretted her brave remarks that she had spoken at the hospital.

"No, no, no," Hue waved his forefinger at her, "You won't because I will keep seducing you. I'll turn you on even if you deny the feeling of wanting me, your husband." He said shamelessly without an ounce self-awareness.

"Uwaa!" Jennet cried and hit his head hard with her hand. She dashed out of the car, leaving her husband all alone.

"Wait for me!" Hue rushed out of the car as soon as he made sure every door were locked.

"Wife, wait for me!" He continued with a wide smile on his face.

As soon as he caught up to her at the cart section, he whispered in her ear, "Don't run too fast. Our babies will be too athletic and you won't be able to run after them in your short legs in the future."

Jennet grunted at him. She pushed a cart and entered the supermarket. Her face was puffing with the smoke of embarrassment which floated gleefully in the air.

"Short legs? I have an awfully beautiful long leg for a small person like me!" She fumed alone.

She felt awfully annoyed when he said about her small size and height. Well, she indeed had a small body but that didn't mean he had to badmouth her height.

Hue chuckled alone after hearing her fuming alone in front of him. He chased after her and took the cart from her hands.

"Don't pout. Our babies will be too cute and that will make you jealous in the future." He teased her and chuckled again.

Jennet pinched his cheek hard and gnashed her teeth at him. "It's you who will be jealous of them in the future!"

If their kids turned out to be much bratty than him, then he will cry while handling them. Hahaha... Jennet laughed inwardly.

A sinister smile appeared on her face as she eyed him. "I love to see your desperate expression soon."

The wide smile on Hue's face faded the moment he heard her words. Well, that was scary to hear. After everything he had gone through a few nights ago, he now knew he had to be cautious of his own wife. She was the living ticking time bomb and he didn't know where or when she will blow up.

About fifteen steps away from the couple, Mira was in shock with her mouth half-open. She saw Jennet nagging at a handsome blonde man. From the way they were acting showed that they had a very close relationship.

"Goodness, Jennet dumped Luca and got a new man now?" She talked alone.

She had given up on Luca but then the woman she had hoped to take good care of him was actually with another man!

Mira strode towards the couple. She must find out what happened. She cannot let Jennet toying around with more men behind Luca!

"Jennet!" She called Jennet's name from behind.

Jennet raised her head and turned around. She was then eyes to eyes with Mira who had a speechless look on.

"Jennet, what are you doing here with this man?" Mira asked her without hesitation. Her eyes were wary of the man by her side.

Jennet was shocked herself by the unexpected meeting. Then she thought this might be the right time to spill the truth about her own situation. She knew Mira was confused because she hasn't said anything about her own marriage yet.

"I'm out shopping with my husband," Jennet said at last. Her tone was softer and there wasn't any stress in her voice.

The hardest confession before had been spoken with ease. Her heart was also in peace over what she had just said. Finally, she can be at ease.

Mira's face that moment was as if she had just seen a dinosaur coming back to life. Confusion and disbelieve was all plastered on her beautiful face.

Jennet saw all that displayed on her face and so she explained.

"I'm sorry for the late introduction," She pulled on Hue's arm. The man looked at Mira and smiled sweetly at her in his confusion.

Then Jennet added, "This is my husband, Hue Hedo. Hue, this is my colleague, Mira Henderson." She introduced the two of them among each other.

As polite as possible, Hue gave Mira a smile that didn't display his uneasiness towards her.

"Hello Ms Henderson. Nice to meet you. I am Jennet's husband." He said and reached out for a handshake.

Mira loses her ability to speak momentarily before she shook his hand and said, "Ahh, nice to meet you to Mr Hedo. I am now known as Mira Stanford. Well, I've recently married to my boyfriend." She added with a face slightly blushing as she introduced her own marital status.

"Then, congratulations on your marriage." Hue congratulated her with a wide smile.

'Good, second main trouble is now married and left Luca all alone. I think now would be a nice chance to pair Luca with Dana the make-up artist.' Hue chuckled inwardly.

However, he didn't show his happiness to her. It would be unsightly if she saw him laughing out loud like a maniac. Even his wife will surely get angry at him since he knew they are now trying to be friends with each other.

"Thank you," Mira said.

Then, she eyed them, exchanged glances between the two of them, "I have no idea about your marriage." She said as she focused her attention toward Jennet, demanding an explanation.

Jennet glanced towards Hue and said to him, "Honey, could you leave us for a while?"

Hue smiled and winked at her. Then, he left the ladies alone, pushing on the cart.

As soon as Hue disappeared at the corner to the frozen section, she turned her head at Mira, "Well, Mira, I have meant to tell you the truth for such a long time already. You had a huge misunderstanding about me." She opened the curtain to their conversation.

"What do you mean? I have never misunderstood you." Mira frowned at her.

"I have nothing to do with Luca Tybelg at all." Jennet tried to explain herself.

Mira inhaled a deep breath. In and out, in and out. There was a moment of silence before she said,

"Weren't you the hidden mistress?" Denying what she knew for five years is not worth it. Jennet definitely had something up her sleeve.

"Hidden mistress?" Jennet was even more confused at what Mira had tried to convey to her.

Mira exhaled a deep sigh, "Well, you moved out of the apartment to your new villa. Even Luca approved of you, moving out of the apartment. Plus, you had a car after working for only a year in the company. Luca even backed you up and said it was from him. Your cold attitude worsens the situation as well."

C-cold attitude?!

Jennet couldn't believe that Mira would have said that. Well, she admitted she was cold before but after meeting Hue, she had become and acted more like a living human. Not a living and expressionless puppet as how she had lived before.

"I assure you, that car was actually a second-hand car I bought from a family while I became their child's private tutor."

"What?" Mira wasn't expecting that explanation to come out of her mouth. She thought she might have been the mistress of some men.

"But, we saw you going out with different men every night in the past years," Mira said. She couldn't possibly believe it if Jennet would say they are her cousins or siblings.

Jennet exhaled another deeper breaths, "Well, they are actually bodyguards."

"Bodyguards?" Mira frowned. Jennet had always been a mysterious woman and she was annoyed of that part, well, a little bit.

"I was a private tutor for a rich family. If you remember our company's most valuable clients, Mr and Mrs Hezmark, I was their child's private tutor and they are also the original owner of the car that I have now." Jennet explained thoroughly.

Mira gasped in disbelief beside her. So, for five solid years, she and her cronies had actually creating hell for an innocent woman. For five solid years, she had been targeting a woman who had nothing to do with such wild rumours. It turned out she, herself were even worser. She slept around with different men but she had her own reason for what she did.

"So then, when did you meet your husband? I didn't know about you going out with such a handsome blonde." Mira shifted the question.

The guilty feeling she had in her heart only worsen if she kept listening to her explanation which she refused to believe before.

"Well, the villa that I resided now is actually my husband's. He put it on sale five years ago and then I bought it from him, not knowing that after five years we would marry each other." There was a serene smile on Jennet's face while she shared her story with Mira. She skipped the real truth that her husband isn't human.

On the other hand, Mira found Jennet's smile to be so charming and comforting. She liked her smiles. She felt it deep down that Jennet didn't try to lie to her.
