After sending off her mother, Midori had a new dilemma. She did not expect Manta to be at the airport, and the clingy Dan is waiting for her at the parking area. At this point, it is only expected that she will come home with Manta. After all, she had not been coming home after work for several days now.

She decided to send Dan a message.

"I need to go with Manta today. Maybe I'll see you tonight?"

After her message was sent, a message from him popped up, as if he sent his at the same time that she sent hers.

"My mother called. She requests my presence. Can you go back on your own?"

Midori replied, "The previous message stands then. I might visit Mei today."

"Then I'll see you tonight."

Manta was curious as he saw his aunt sighing then smiling.

"Manta, let's go visit Aunty Mei today!"

Dan drove a silver Porsche Panamera into the black iron gates of the Zhou estate.

"Young Master, the Madam and the visitors are in the Poseidon Room." The butler declared.

The mansion had three rooms for receiving guests, depending on their number and on what occasion. The rooms were named after the three Greek gods and decorated accordingly. The darkest room wherein movie viewing would be suitable is Hades. The Poseidon was mainly decorated in blue, with an aquarium pillar, accommodating a small number of guests. Lastly, the Zeus hall is a lavishly decorated ballroom large enough to accommodate about 500 guests.

"Hmmm." Dan nodded and made his way to the room.

Su Linyu saw him pass along the aquarium pillar.

She stood up. "Verdan, you're back. Come sit." She motioned on a single sofa.

Su Linyu sat across a young lady, who sat beside an elderly man. She made Dan sit on a sofa adjacent both to her seat and the lady's.

"Verdan, this is Chairman Song. He owns SG Enterprises." She motioned to the old man.

Elder Song bowed in acknowledgment.

"And this is his daughter, Madeline." Su Linyu had a bright smile as she introduced the curvy lady.

"Aunty Mei!" Manta exclaimed.

Jiang Mei Ling was delighted on the sight as she opened the door. She immediately gave Manta hugs and kisses.

"My, my! You've grown taller, my cute little prince!"

Midori chuckled. "Sorry for not visiting more often."

"It doesn't matter. I know you." Mei giggled. "Come in, come in."

Mei went to the open kitchen and boiled some water. Then she went to the living room and sat beside Midori.

"So, how's your pregnancy so far?"

"Well, the morning sickness has been gone for weeks now, thank goodness! And, as you can see, I'm showing." She caressed her abdomen.

"Mommy, what's pregnancy?" Manta interrupted.

Midori chuckled. "It means carrying a baby in her tummy. Your Aunty Mei will be having a cute baby soon."

"That's right. The baby is sleeping here." She took his chubby little hand and made him feel the baby bump.

"Woah..." Manta's eyes widened. Then he looked up at Midori. "Mommy, when will you have a baby?"

The bestfriends looked at one another, then they laughed.

"Manta, would you want your Mommy to give you a brother or a sister?" Mei was hinting at Midori with her eyes.

The little guy gently shook his head. "Aunty Mei. That's wrong. If mommy will have a baby, the baby will be my cousin, not my brother."

Midori had a gentle smile. She looked at Mei. "He knows. He had always known."

Mei had a look of realization. "Ah...so, would it be okay if your Mommy will have a baby?"

Manta looked at Mei, then Midori. "It's okay. I will have a cousin to play with." His chinky eyes and chubby cheeks had formed a cute smile.

Mei nudged on Midori's arm and raised her brows knowingly.

To their surprise, Manta continued. "Okaasan left with the baby. She told me she would surprise Otousan so I needed to wait at home." Then his face turned sad.
