Chapter 1042
Ste was taken aback when she saw that photo.
Ste asked: [What is he doing}
Xenia replied: [He''s cooking porridge for me. I told him I was having very bad morning sickness and
had no appetite. He got so nervous and worried that the baby would be affected if I didn''t eat and came
with a bunch of things. I said that I wanted to eat the porridge he cooked, so he started learning and
cooking it on the spot.]
Ste was dumbfounded.
She had no idea whether tough or mock Albert.
Albert had never set foot in the kitchen before. He used to score very well in exams since he was
young, and although he came from a vige, his family doted on him. His family had several ntation
fields, and his parents always asked his little brothers to do all the farming work, never letting him break
a sweat.
So, despiteing from a small town, Albert was treated like an heir of a wealthy family who got to
enjoy all the best resources his family could offer him with.
He probably did not even know how to hold a scythe properly, let alone cook.

Not only had he not cooked before, but he also had his own principles. When Ste used to argue with
him when she was young, she always heard him say that women should stay at home to care for the
family while men should earn money. He even told Ste that her future husband would feel inferior
and disrespected if she were to take the lead in everything.
It was strange that a misogynist like him would suddenly start cooking.
However, his actions started to make sense when the motivation behind him doing all that was because
he knew that Xenia was pregnant with his son.
Ste said: [He didn''t suspect anything about the report, right?]
Xenia replied: [Not at all. He wouldn''t stop staring at my stomach in these two days. He even said my
stomach looked a little pointy, so it must be a boy. I guess he has already imagined what the child will
look like.]
Ste: [Hylda is a wicked person. She will probably take action when she finds out you''re having a
baby boy. So look after yourself and call me immediately if anything goes wrong,]
Xenia read Ste''s message and sent her another reply: (She probably already knew it. Sophia already
came to harass me, but she was stopped and warned by Albert''s bodyguards. I''m sure she''ll tell Hylda
about it since she can''t do anything to me.]
Ste thought for a while and replied: [Post the photo you took on your Twitter and make it visible to
only people working in Albert''spany,]
Xenia did as Ste said.
Sophia could not reach Albert on the phone and walked back and forth anxiously.
At that time, Hylda’s phone rang. She took a nce at it, and her pupils immediately contracted.
One of the spies she ced in Albert''spany sent her a screenshot of the photo Xenia had just
posted on her Twitter.
In the photo, Albert was busy cooking in the kitchen. Xenia‘s caption was: [A man who knows how to
cook is so attractive.]
Hylda was breathless with anger. That was the moment she felt an unprecedented sense of threat.
When she was pregnant with Hugo, Albert took good care of her too, but mainly in materialistic ways.
He did not go so far and did something so diligent to her.
Judging from how simr Xenia and Rainee looked, it was difficult for her not to suspect that the
scumbag, Albert, still had notpletely moved on from his old lover.
If that was really the case, her position in the family would be at a greater risk.
The more Hylda thought about it, the more restless she got. '' I can never let her give birth to this baby.’
She thought to herself.
After that, she quickly called Albert without thinking any further.
Xenia waited for Albert''s phone to ring thrice before giving it to him, "Mr. Jewell, your wife''s calling."
Albert paused and almost cut his finger.
He frowned as he took the phone over. Then, he heard Hylda question him assertively, "What are you
doing? What took you so long to pick up?”
