Even Seth was stunned when he heard the news. His gaze swept over Chloe’s belly, then calmly
landed on Cicely, who was standing aside.
Something flickered in his eyes, gone in an instant. He turned and walked into the living room,
seemingly indifferent to the Angel’s Haven Orphanage that Chloe had just mentioned.
Maybe all he wanted now was for Cicely to stay put. Just her staying was enough.
Cicely’s gaze followed his retreating figure until her anxiety gradually dissipated.
Later, she looked at Chloe again. Cicely was the carefree person who used to seem indifferent to
everything, but now Chloe could clearly see the expectations and desires in her eyes.
Chloe felt a twinge in her heart. If before she couldn’t understand Cicely’s feelings, now looking at her,
all Chloe felt was sorrow. The two babies in her belly hadn’t shown any reaction yet, but she felt they
were the best things in the world.
She looked forward to their birth, their first time calling her mommy, watching them grow day by day,
not wanting to miss a single moment with them.
She had always thought her mother was great before, from praising her in school to later
understanding her mother’s hardships and sacrifices. She had felt her mother’s love for her, but
couldn’t fully appreciate her greatness, her hardship, her selflessness, and the deep love for her child.
Most of these thoughts were instilled through education, and she had always been the one receiving
the motherly love. But now, becoming a mother herself, she felt so many things deeper than ever
before.

She thought, if she were Cicely, she might not be as strong. If she were Cicely, she might do whatever
it takes to keep her children by her side and give them the best love. But, for the sake of her child, she
had to be strong.
There were things Cicely had to consider, so she had to restrain herself. Missing several years of her
son’s growth, it was a regret she could never make up for in her life.
“Come with me tomorrow, let’s go see the kids together.”
Cicely bit her lip, her eyes red. “Okay, you’re my boss. Your word is law.” Her voice was trembling
slightly.

Chloe stepped forward, looking into her eyes, full of sympathy. “Is it because I’m your boss? Why do I
think the focus is actually on the vacation?”
Cicely lowered her head, took off her boots, “Since you know, you should be more proactive about the
next holiday.”
She walked towards the living room, stopped halfway, and turned to Chloe, “Is it a paid leave? If not,
forget it.”
Seth suddenly stopped, his gaze fixed on Chloe. Chloe saw a strong warning in his calm gazes. She
raised an eyebrow, suddenly saying, “Paid leave… that’s a bit tricky.”
Seth’s eyes narrowed slightly, but Chloe walked over to Cicely supporting her waist as they headed
towards the dining room, saying, “You must have seen the news I’m taking over Infinity Media’s artists
soon, and there might be a lot of them. So the company can only try to cut costs as much as possible.”
Seth’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, a gloom flashed in his eyes. His gaze swept over Damon on the
couch, and seeing his indifferent but gentle smile, Seth’s face turned even darker.
He thought to himself, why had Damon, who usually wouldn’t proactively reached out to him, suddenly
contacted him today? It turned out he had a purpose. When he suddenly contacted him today, Seth
immediately thought of Chloe’s sudden request in the afternoon. But he thought that based on Chloe’s
personality she might just want to use Damon to get a chance to discuss things with him.
He knew Chloe was very smart; her performance in the industry over the past few months was enough
for him to completely acknowledge her.
About the thing she mentioned in the afternoon, he had already clearly rejected her. Even if they met
again, there should be a process of opening the topic. But after she walked into the room, there was no
conversation between them. How did she manage to bring up the matter so naturally? Who was she
talking to?
Seth gave a slight smile. In his deep gazes, a hint of sarcasm flickered. What a good way to save
costs.
“So, you can handle so many artists, but you’re nitpicking over my daily wage?”
Cicely was puzzled by Chloe’s reasoning. She was nitpicking over paid leave, when did Chloe become
so petty?
Chloe pulled out a chair for Cicely to sit down, then sat down next to her, looking helpless. “What can I
do, I’m broke.” Though Cicely didn’t care much about this insignificant topic, she couldn’t help but give
a smirk.
Everyone in the living room who heard Chloe’s words wanted roll their eyes.
Broke?! Her husband was the head of the Harper, Group, sitting right here. How could she dare to say
that she was broke?
Seth cast a cold glance at the indifferent Damon on the couch, gave a low chuckle, then said coldly.
“She’s broke?”
Damon lifted his eyes and glanced at Seth indifferently. Seeing his displeased look, he smiled casually.
“Yeah, she’s broke.”
Seth chuckled, and he continued to ridicule, “When did you become so poor?”
Damon slowly stood up, his fitted dark suit making him look tall and upright, his mature and noble aura
emanated a faint, undeniable dominance.
The word poor was the last thing that matched his image. He glanced towards the dining room, and
gave a slight smile, “That depends on her. When she needs me to be poor, I must be poor.”
Seth was speechless. Rose suddenly felt that she regretted agreeing to this “poor” man to accompany
Chloe. She came to eat, not to witness their sweet romance.
Several veins popped up on Seth’s forehead. Compared to Rose getting all riled up outta nowhere,
Seth thought Damon strutting around in his house was way more infuriating.
