chapter 1588
It had only been a little over ten days since hest saw her, and Jane''s belly seemed to
have grown much bigger in size. For the past ten days in white Ocean city, Alex had been
quite free and, when he had nothing to do, he could, from Kidon City, consult doctors from
White Ocean City and do research online by himself. He came to learn a lot about
pregnant women and learnt that the further along the pregnancy, the faster the fetus would
grow. Indeed, after merely ten days, Jane had changed drastically. However, she was still
extremely thin and her face was still pale without any color; her clothes were still ragged,
barely covering her, when in fact, it seemed that was simply because her belly had grown
too big to be covered. ’
She was holding a teapot and refilling drinks for the guests. She was clearly the odd one
out as she walked around the restaurant in her state between elites of white Ocean city,
especially when she came across Alex.
White Ocean City was situated at the furthest north of the northeastern region, and it was
the peak of the winter season. Even men as muscr and tall as Alex were wearing suits
under long trench-coats. His outfit, along with his identity, had created a sense of
iparable majesty in his presence. The polished military boots that he was wearing
only added to the aura of maturity that oozed from him.
In the end, the two were extremely different. Luckily, Jane no longer cared about it and only
saw Alex as a stranger.
The corridor was narrow and he stood in the middle as he observed her intently. She held
onto a teapot as she moved with her pregnant belly, and realized that she had to walk past
him. She lowered her head and whispered, " Excuse me, please... Let me through."
Alex continued to stare at her like he did not hear a word.
"..." Jane lifted her chin to look at Alex and found him frowning with a cold expression.
Before she could say anything, someone behind her started yelling.

A woman''s voice came through, "Hey, pregnantdy! Are you blind? Don''t you see Master
Alex of Kidon city standing there? why is a servant who serves drinks like yourself getting
this close to him? Trying to get Master Alex''s attention? You? Hmph! Get out of here right
now!"
Jane had seen the woman who was scolding her, and it was the same woman who was
fighting with anotherdy at the restaurant the day before. Apparently, this woman was
looking to make an appearance in front of Alex and do him a favor. ’
"Get away from Master Alex." She shoved Jane aside and red at her in contempt before
looking back to Alex in a ttering manner. "I''m so sorry about that, Mr. Poole. It was my
brother''s idea to throw a weing party here at this restaurant for you; he was supposed
to clear this ce out before you arrived. It''s my brother''s fault for not tossing this woman
out. This woman is just a janitor. I saw her cleaning the ce yesterday; why has she
be the waitress today? Perhaps she is out here on her own initiative. People
nowadays, especially those bloggers or whatever, are all desperate to be famous;
this one here is probably trying to make an impression too."

The woman falsely concluded Jane''s character in a few words, andmanded her in an
arrogant tone, "Go back to where you are supposed to be. You cane back out to clean
when everything is over!"
Jane bowed her head. "Okay." She turned to leave and saw Ivy.
Ivy blocked Jane''s way and sneered. "Jane Sheen! Why is a janitor who cleans the kitchen
out here? You must really want to see Mr. Poole!" She paused to smile at Alex and
continued, "I''m sorry, Master Alex. This woman has wanted to see you the entire time and
well; she just snuck out and came here to see you. I think you have gone too easy on her.

Ivy was now the newest favorite of Lenny. She often sat on hisp and listened to him talk
to Alex through the phone so she knew that during Alex''s trip to White Ocean City, Lenny
had formed the closest connection to him.
