TimeNovelChapter 118: Chapter 118: Preparing to Beca Mother
lan Linton’s gaze lingered slightly on her ear, his eyes seemingly froze for a moment, showing a hint of surprise.
Soon, that trace of shock disappeared from his eyes, his elegant and handsface revealing a faint smile, as
he gestured for Daisy Ginger and the others to proceed.
"Let's go, Edward." Daisy Ginger turned her head, looking toward Edward Stephens behind her. He seemed to be
still examining her earrings, not lifting his head much. Daisy Ginger smiled, reaching out to hold his warm
fingers, and walked towards the private room with him.
Abigail Perry's attention didn’t seem focused on them. When lan Linton invited her and Edward Stephens to dine
together, she didn’t really respond, just cautiously holding Emily Ginger’s arm, nervously reminding her when
they passed the steps.
Emily Ginger remained silent the entire time, standing beside Abigail Perry, her head lowered, not glancing
towards her and Edward Stephens even once. Sometimes, she would subconsciously touch her abdomen with
one hand, her expression carrying the unique cautiousness of a new mother-to-be.

She was already prepared to beca mother. Daisy Ginger watched her, pondering silently. A few days ago,
she heard that Emily was going to call off the engagement with lan Linton, and thought something had
happened between them.
Now it seems, after all, it’s just a normal couple’s quarrel.
The arrival of this child seems to have completely redirected her attention away from Edward Stephens.
Daisy Ginger curved her lips, feeling that things seemed to be progressing more and more in the direction she
hoped.
The five of them took their seats.
The dishes lan Linton ordered were quickly brought to the table.
Cumin roasted ribs, large plate chicken, oil-braised shrimp, sliced beef...
Daisy Ginger glanced over a few times, discovering that most of them were things she liked to eat or could
stomach.
This place is truly a treasure, she could chere with Edward Stephens more often.
lan Linton used serving chopsticks to give Emily Ginger a piece of rib, and then gave Daisy Ginger an oil-braised
shrimp, smiling as he said to Daisy Ginger, "Director Ginger, this restaurant's oil-braised shrimp is a specialty, |
wonder if you'd like it."
Daisy Ginger really loved shrimp, no matter how it's cooked, she thanked him and then tossed the shrimp onto
Edward Stephens’ plate, "Peel it for me."
Edward Stephens glanced at her with her justified look, and then pushed the shrimp back into Daisy Ginger’s
bowl, saying plainly, "Peel it yourself if you want to eat."
Daisy Ginger pouted, and lan Linton stepped in to smooth things over. He put on disposable gloves, saying
gently to Daisy Ginger, "Director Ginger, if you like, lethelp you."
This time, it was Daisy Ginger’s turn to feel a bit embarrassed. She coughed softly a few times and said to lan
Linton, "lan, no need, | can do it myself."
She wasn't spoiled to the extent of needing others to peel shrimp and feed her, she just wanted to eat the ones
Edward Stephens peeled for her.
lan Linton quickly peeled two shrimps for her and placed them in Daisy Ginger’s plate. Edward Stephens was
eating roasted beef, glanced up at lan.
lan Linton turned his head to look at him, smiling gently, and asked, "Edward, would you like swine? The
rice wine here is quite nice too."
His smile was gentle, on a youthful, handsface, without the slightest aggression.
Edward Stephens withdrew his gaze: "No need. | have to drive later."
The meal was eaten as usual, Abigail Perry did not create any ruckus, always bustling around her daughter,
serving her yam soup, peeling shrimps, giving her dishes.
Emily Ginger’s expression was always calm. She ate her meal quietly, not interacting much with Abigail Perry.
With her pregnancy, she seemed to have matured a lot, becoming quiet, with a gentle stability beneath her frail
appearance.
