Chapter 52: Chapter 52 He Wants to Devour Her~

Under An Ge’s relentless efforts, the woman’s emotions gradually calmed down. Although her expression remained vacant, she no longer went into fits. When An Ge fed her, she didn’t throw any tantrums.

After feeding the woman her dinner, Housekeeper Su brought a caregiver into the hospital room. Housekeeper Su said to An Ge, "Ms. An Ge, this is the caregiver I found for you. You can call her Sister Li. She’s very reliable."

An Ge had great trust in Housekeeper Su, who was by Mrs. Huo’s side. After thanking him, she gave Sister Li some instructions on how to care for her mother. After the instructions, she emphasized to Sister Li,

"No one is allowed to visit my mother without my permission. Especially An Zhiguo, Bai Meilan, and An Baoying."

During the journey, Sister Li had already heard from Housekeeper Su about An Ge’s family circumstances. She knew that An Ge’s mother was the woman abandoned by An Zhiguo. Having also been abandoned by her husband, she sympathized deeply with An Ge and her mother.

Thus, she nodded quickly and said, "Don’t worry. I’ll make sure to take good care of Ms. Wen."

In the evening, Young Master Huo was to return to [Huo Mansion] for dinner. An Ge knew she couldn’t stay any longer; she had to prepare dinner before Young Master Huo got off work. The dinner ingredients had also been prepared in advance by Uncle Fu. This time, An Ge cooked with great care, completing each dish with Uncle Fu’s assistance.

One of the dishes was a stewed rib soup, with a lush white broth that tasted extraordinarily delicious. However, she scalded her hand while cooking the soup, the right one again. The wound on her right palm hadn’t scabbed over yet, and now a new injury was added to the back of her hand. An Ge bit her lip in pain.

Dinner was ready by seven o’clock, but Young Master Huo hadn’t come back by then. Uncertain of when he would return and worried the food would get cold, she made a call to him. It rang for a long time before it was answered, but the voice on the other end wasn’t Young Master Huo’s—it was An Baoying’s.

"An Ge, don’t be too much. Young Master Huo is my man, and you’ve already taken our fifty thousand as a deposit. Even if you won’t help me, you’re seducing Young Master Huo behind my back—is that how much you want your mother dead?"

Facing An Baoying’s exasperation, An Ge’s voice was calm, "An Baoying, you can’t rush things. What’s making you so anxious? Could it be that you aren’t actually pregnant and just pretending, so you can’t wait to get married?"

"You..."

An Baoying was so angry she couldn’t speak. Just then, Young Master Huo walked out from [Cangpin Pavillion] and approached her, startling An Baoying enough to nearly drop the phone.

"Who allowed you to touch my phone?"

Upon hearing this, An Baoying turned pale. She hastily ended the call and handed the phone back to Young Master Huo, explaining, "It was... it was An Ge’s call. She seemed to have something urgent for you, so I answered on your behalf."

Young Master Huo glanced at her, called over Qin Lang, and instructed, "Take her home safely."

As soon as the words fell, An Baoying felt a twist in her heart and asked somewhat reluctantly, "Young Master Huo, won’t you take me home? I heard many people say that during pregnancy, if the father spends more time with the mother, the baby will be much smarter and healthier."

"Unless you’re stupid, my genes can’t produce fools."

An Baoying: "..."

If it weren’t for An Baoying telling him there was something he wanted at [Cangpin Pavillion], he wouldn’t have bothered spending time with her. Young Master Huo found it impossible to like An Baoying and said,

"You’re pregnant now, so cancel all your engagements. It’s best to leave the entertainment circle. I don’t want my future Mrs. Huo to be an actress exposed to the public."

Of course, if she could successfully marry into the foremost prominent family in [Jingcheng], An Baoying could leave the circle. However, the man now showed no interest in marriage, and with Mrs. Huo’s opposition, An Baoying felt insecure. Therefore, she braced herself and said,

"Young Master Huo, acting is my dream. I... I can stop taking roles for our child, but quitting the industry... I need to reconsider."

Dream? Young Master Huo believed dreams should be respected. When he was young, locked in a cage by traffickers facing an uncertain future, his greatest dream was to be warm, fed, and not beaten.

"As you wish."

Young Master Huo left those words and accepted a newly purchased collection from the owner of [Cangpin Pavillion], saying, "Extend my gratitude to Master Jiang for his generous offering!"

The owner of [Cangpin Pavillion] quickly smiled and said, "Master Jiang heard you bought it for Madam Xiao’s birthday, and naturally, the old should be respected."

After leaving [Cangpin Pavillion], Young Master Huo drove straight back to [Huo Mansion]. On the way, thinking about An Ge’s call, he dialed back. He waited for a long time, but no one answered.

As a high-profile real estate tycoon, someone whose mere footstep could shake the stock market, being brushed off by a little maid like this did nothing for Young Master Huo’s mood. He laughed in exasperation.

He thought he might indeed, hand to heart, tear An Ge apart and... swallow her whole.
