Chapter 320 The Baby Is Kicking
Chapter 320 The Baby Is Kicking
"Why are you here, Anna?"
Charles's heart skipped a beat. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
He tried to remember the last time he saw Anna. After she had handed over her letter of resignation,
she left the Mu clan's private hospital. Since then, Charles had never seen nor heard from her.
Charles had once thought that there was something wrong about Anna's sudden resignation, but he
didn't have time to think it through. He was too busy finding out what happened to Linda that he forgot
about Anna's resignation. Still, he was surprised to see her here.
Anna was happy and thrilled to see Charles. She unconsciously dropped all the meals on the ground
when she saw him. She finally came to her senses when she noticed the mess she made on the floor.
"I'm visiting someone." Anna couldn't find the words to describe her feelings at that moment. She
wanted to tell Charles everything, but she didn't know where to start.
"Why are there three meals? Who are you eating with?" Charles noticed that there were three meals on
the ground. If Anna was alone, she would only need one.
Anna replied honestly, "They are for me, Mrs. Xie, and... Lady Linda."
On their way to the hospital, Linda had told Anna that she was ready to see Charles Mu again, which
meant that she had decided to go back to him. That was why Anna thought it was okay to tell Charles
Mu that Linda was here.
She couldn't wait for the two of them to reunite.
"What? Linda... My Linda is here? Now?"
Charles Mu immediately grabbed onto Anna's shoulders.
Charles's grip was so tight that Anna could feel a slight pain.
"Yes. Lady Linda is here, and she is in Mrs. Xie's room. Young Master, don't you want to see her?"
Anna said with a smile.
When Charles heard what Anna said, he let go of her at once and ran toward Donna's room without
turning back.
Anna had never seen Charles act like this. When he heard that Linda was here, she noticed his eyes
glistened with tears. He must have missed Linda very much.
Before Charles ran, he shouted at Paul who was nearby, "Paul, help Anna get three sets of meals from
the cafeteria!"
In Donna's room, Linda and Donna were chatting about their daily lives. Since it had been a while since
the last time they saw each other, they both had many things to talk about. They had lived with each
other for over a decade. Even though Donna wasn't her biological mother, Linda always treated her like
one.
Suddenly, the door swung open. Linda turned around to see who did something so reckless.
She froze when she saw Charles.
The familiar face... Looking at him, she felt like it was just yesterday that they saw each other. But it
had actually been four months since the last time they met.
"Babe..."
Charles muttered at the door.
His eyes turned very red. It seemed like he was holding back all his emotions.
Somehow, Linda had the urge to cry, too. She had never seen Charles like this before.
Charles was a strong man, and he would never cry about anything. But now, Linda clearly saw the
tears in his eyes.
There was an old saying. Men do not easily shed tears. Charles tried hard to stop the tears from falling,
so he would not cry in front of Linda.
But Linda could hardly control herself since the moment she saw Charles. Tears started streaming
down her cheeks; she could not help but cry.
She looked at Charles and mumbled, "Charles Mu, you asshole."
Charles knew that the woman standing in front of him was really his wife, his precious baby, his
beloved Linda.
When Donna saw the tears on Linda's face, it made Donna's heart ache. She thought that Linda and
Charles really had a fight. That explained the news Derek told her this morning. They said that Charles
had abandoned Linda. It might not be true, but it was not groundless either. Donna understood how the
rumors became news.
"Well, well... Did you two have a fight? You two love each other very much, right? You shouldn't stay
mad at each other for too long. Stop messing around."
Donna tried to lighten the atmosphere, but they still didn't say a word to each other. Donna got worried,
so she continued, "Young Master Mu, sometimes Linda could be very stubborn, but she doesn't hold
any grudges. You can easily sweet-talk her into forgetting about the fight. Please don't take it to heart."
No one expected Linda to cry even harder after she heard Donna's remarks.
Charles nodded his head and said, "No, Mother, it isn't Linda's fault. It's all my fault. I will ask her for
forgiveness."
"That's good. Now, go talk to her."
Donna was almost certain that the news was fake. There had been some disagreements between
them, and someone had made a big deal out of it. But now they seemed to have made up.
Donna was relieved to hear what Charles said.
"Mother, I'll have to take Linda with me. Paul is getting you some lunch. Please have a rest first." Then,
Charles strode across the room toward Linda, held her hand, and led her out of the room.
Charles noticed that the room next to Donna's was empty. He pulled the door open and walked into it
with Linda, closing the door behind.
"Honey..."
Before Linda could say anything else, she was pushed against the door by Charles.
He held both her hands close to his chest, lowered his head, and kissed her. Linda couldn't think of
anything. Her mind was focused on the kiss.
The kiss was so sweet and strong that Linda could hardly breathe, but she still tried to kiss him back.
Linda had waited for this kiss for four months. She hadn't seen Charles for four whole months. Linda
missed him very much.
"Linda, you heartless woman, " Charles whispered hoarsely.
After the kiss, Charles scooped her in his arms. He hugged her so tight that he wished he could never
let her go again.
"Be gentle, Charles. Be careful with the baby, " reminded Linda.
Since Charles was really strong, she felt the pressure on her belly, and she could hardly breathe.
Charles let go of Linda carefully, lowered his head, and looked at Linda's belly. Her belly had a bulge.
"Baby? Our baby?" Charles murmured. His heart had missed another beat.
Linda got a little angry when she heard Charles's query.
"You idiot. Of course it's our baby. Or do you think I'm carrying a pillow here for fun?"
Charles placed his hand on Linda's belly. He felt the baby kicking, greeting him.
"I felt the baby kick. Did you feel it?"
When Charles placed his hand on her belly, she felt her baby moved.
"Yes! I felt it too. I think it's saying hello!" Charles said excitedly.
Charles softly smiled at Linda. He hadn't smiled for months.
What he had been worried about didn't happen. Linda was still alive.
As long as she was alive and by his side, he couldn't ask for anything more.
