After a day's work, at around six o'clock in the evening, Simon was about to go out for dinner with several Gucci executives. Neil Bennett came over with a satellite phone and said it was Janet's call.
Calculating the time, it should be around ten o'clock in the morning in Los Angeles.
During a phone call yesterday, Janet said she was going to have a physical check-up today to see why she had been feeling inexplicably tired recently.
I took the satellite phone and just put it in my ear to ask, when a coquettish and scolding voice came from the other side of the phone: "You little bastard, come back quickly, Jenny and I are both pregnant."
Simon stood stunned on the spot.
Janet on the other side of the phone seemed to be able to imagine Simon's expression. She hummed a few times with a threatening tone, told Simon to go back quickly, and then hung up the phone.
More than ten hours later, Simon rushed back to Los Angeles. It was past twelve o'clock in the morning on the West Coast of the United States.
It seemed very quiet in Dumeijiao Manor.
After asking Miss D, who was still waiting for him, and knowing that Janet and Jennifer were both in the villa, Simon went upstairs on his own.
The circular master bedroom on the third floor of Shell Villa.
Simon opened the door and came in. The bedroom was very quiet, a yellowish light was on the bedside table, and the woman on the big bed had already fallen asleep.
There was obviously only one person on the bed.
Walking over lightly, Simon carefully sat down by the bed, looking down at Janet's face sleeping on her side. Unknowingly, they had known each other for seven years, and the woman's appearance was still the same as before. Western women are always easy. Although she looks old, there are always some fairies who can resist the erosion of time, just like Janet, Catherine, and other women she knows.
Janet slept soundly, and Simon sat for a while. The woman probably finally felt Simon's breath and woke up in a daze. When she realized that Simon was sitting next to her, she raised her fair face slightly. When Simon leaned over and kissed her, he murmured, "I'm so sleepy," and closed his eyes again.
It seemed like what was said on the phone more than ten hours ago was completely insignificant.
After getting along for so long, they are already very familiar with each other's personalities. Simon knows very well that Janet is not the kind of woman who values worldly rules, and the same is true for Simon himself.
However, it has never happened before that two Janets were pregnant at the same time. Simon was still worried about Janet's reaction on the plane back to Los Angeles. After all, women are difficult to figure out, and Janet also has a fickle personality.
In the bedroom at this time, Simon finally felt relieved when he saw Janet's reaction as if the sky was falling and she was not as important as her own beauty sleep.
I just asked about Jennifer's room at Girl D's place.
After getting up and leaving the master bedroom, Simon came to the door of a bedroom on the second floor of the villa. He raised his hand to knock on the door. Remembering the time, he opened the door and walked in.
This is also a sea-view suite. You pass through the outer living room and arrive at the bedroom. There is also a light on in the room, but the woman on the bed has not fallen asleep. She is quietly sitting on the bedside reading a book.
When she noticed Simon coming in, the female assistant put down her book and looked at Simon with some joy and unconcealed anxiety in her eyes.
I told him very early on that I hoped to have a child when I was thirty.
The female assistant was born in 1962 and had her thirtieth birthday last year. However, when the agreed date came, she became hesitant.
Unlike Janet, although the female assistant is also somewhat rebellious at heart, she is still affected by secular rules, otherwise she would not have been a good girl for so many years under the arrangements of her parents.
Silently staying by Simon's side and becoming this man's lover has been the most outrageous decision the female assistant has made in her life. If she has another child, of course she wants it very much, but she can't help but worry about what will happen to this child in the future. Right now
She knew that Simon would care about this child very much, but from a worldly perspective, an illegitimate child would have to bear too many different looks. She didn't want her child to bear these in the future, so she kept putting it off.
until today.
Calculating the time, it all obviously started because of that ridiculous incident after the Golden Globes.
Simon has always paid attention to protective measures in the past, but when men are in the mood, they often don't care too much about these, or men don't like restraint in their bones.
She didn't pay much attention to it at first, until this morning, Janet suddenly called her.
Inexplicably being called to Dume Point Manor, Janet stuffed a pregnancy test stick into her and then pushed her into the bathroom.
Then I found out that I was pregnant.
Then it was discovered that both of them were pregnant at the same time.
Her initial reaction was to be wary. Even though Janet usually seemed to have no grudges against her, it was not like she had never seen infighting among wealthy families. She was very worried that Janet would let her get rid of the child.
Fortunately, this did not happen.
I recall in my mind everything that happened throughout the day.
Don't speak, wait for him to speak first.
Even if she could basically confirm something, she was still a little worried about this man's reaction.
The man sat down by the bed, and after a while he seemed to finally find a topic: "What are you reading?"
He lifted the book and showed it to him.
"Dream of Red Mansions".
But it's an English version. Although she is also learning Chinese privately, it is only at the level of daily conversation, far from Janet's level of being able to directly read the original Chinese version.
Thinking of this, she even felt a little inferior. Janet was much smarter than her.
He even knew that Janet helped him much more than her little female assistant. Not only Cersei Capital, but also the entire Westeros system was almost within the scope of Janet's attention. Like his eyes, she is just one of his fingers.
After being so distracted for a while, she realized that her silence made him a little embarrassed. She also instantly confirmed his thoughts, took the initiative to look at him, and said: "Jenny said that she can give birth to twins."
Simon was still thinking about his next words and didn't react for a while: "Huh?"
The female assistant's eyes were bright and she repeated: "Yes, Jenny, she can give birth to twins."
Simon felt the clear eyes of the female assistant and finally understood.
Along the way on the plane, Simon thought about many issues in a troubling manner. The most important thing was how to arrange the little one in Jennifer's belly.
The attitude of Western society towards illegitimate children, especially the upper class, is actually more harsh than the country where Simon lived in his previous life.
Many people involved will even regard this kind of thing as a stain in their lives, just like Steve Jobs, who did not hesitate to declare that he was impotent in order to deny the fact that Lisa Brennan was his daughter.
In addition, until now, illegitimate children in Western society have been basically unable to obtain inheritance rights.
In comparison, Easterners are more likely to recognize this kind of thing due to the deep-rooted concept of blood inheritance.
Simon is like that to his core.
To him, whether it was Janet or Jennifer, the little guys in the bellies of the two women were his children.
However, since we are in this social environment, even if we don't care at all about various secular rules, we have to consider the people around us.
Simon did not want his female assistant and his child to remain invisible to the public. However, if they were simply and crudely announced to the outside world, it would inevitably cause unnecessary trouble.
Unexpectedly, Janet helped him solve this problem.
Janet can give birth to twins.
Twins are not something you can just give birth to if you want to. The woman actually understands what she means. She can put the female assistant's child in her name and claim to the outside world that she has given birth to a pair of twins.
In this way, the child of the female assistant also has a legitimate identity.
It is indeed a perfect solution.
Simon thought this, stretched out his hand to hold the soft little hand of the female assistant, and asked: "What about you, what do you think?"
The female assistant tried to hold Simon's big hand with her backhand, but her palm was too petite and was still covered by the man's hand, so she stopped moving, nodded and said softly: "I'm very grateful to Jenny."
After saying that, he tried to take the man's big hand and put it on his lower abdomen, and then said: "I originally planned to call the little guy Seattle Raybould, but of course it would be best if he could be called Seattle Westeros. "
Simon's palm gently caressed the female assistant's lower abdomen. After a while, he couldn't help but slip in through the gap in the clothes. Feeling the warmth of the skin on his palm, he said: "Actually, in my heart, you are already another Westeros." ”
The female assistant held down the man's mischievous hand with a blushing face, her beautiful eyes became brighter and brighter, and she said softly: "Thank you, Simon."
Simon leaned over and kissed the female assistant on the lips, and said: "I am the one who should say thank you. Being able to meet you and have you is the luckiest thing in my life."
The two exchanged small talk, kissed, and rubbed their faces together for a moment. The female assistant finally pushed the man reluctantly and said, "It's already very late. You go and accompany Jenny."
"How about we go there together?"
"It's ridiculous that I won't accompany you anymore." The female assistant's face turned slightly red. She pushed him again and urged, "Go ahead. I can't be too greedy."
"I'll go there after I watch you fall asleep."
"I can't sleep when you look at me."
"You can pretend to be asleep."
"Um."
After saying that, he lay down and saw Simon pick up the English version of "A Dream of Red Mansions" and put it on the bedside, and then said: "Jenny said she was inspired by this book to think of it."
Simon sat patiently on the edge of the bed and asked, "What?"
Jennifer said: "The girl in the book, Tanchun."
Simon nodded.
The female assistant sprouted another hand from under the quilt and held Simon's big hand, saying, "However, I don't like the ending of this book."
"Of course," Simon said softly: "Our children must be princes and princesses, and they are the princes and princesses in fairy tales."
The female assistant's eyes flashed, she felt relieved and closed her eyes obediently under Simon's gaze.
Simon waited until the female assistant's breathing stabilized before carefully getting up again.
Returning to the master bedroom of the villa, after washing up, and just lying down on the big bed, Janet came over to her almost instinctively in her sleep.
Wake up again, a new day, a new week.
The time is February 15th.
Yesterday was Valentine's Day.
After being together for so many years, Simon is no longer too fond of this kind of festival. If the two women were not pregnant at the same time, according to the schedule, Simon would have to stay in Italy for another day before returning.
Although we cannot spend this holiday together, we have actually prepared gifts in advance.
Both women have it.
Unexpectedly, two women gave themselves the rarest Valentine's Day gift.
However, although the three of them have formed a tacit understanding, pregnancy is not just a matter of three people after all.
The Australian side was quickly notified of Janet's pregnancy again, and the Johnston family expressed their congratulations, but it was not as dramatic as when Janet was pregnant in Melbourne.
Regarding the female assistant and the arrangement of the 'twins', the Australian side was not informed.
Mainly worried about Raymond Johnston's reaction.
The female assistant did not hide it, and the Rayboulds also got the news in the following days.
The couple had already acquiesced to their daughter's condition, and had once had the idea that their daughter could replace Janet. Over the past few years, this idea has basically dissipated.
After a deep discussion between James Raybould and Simon, he also approved Simon's arrangement for the female assistant's unborn child, but required that the child must know who his mother is in the future.
The twin plan was only for outsiders to see. Simon had never thought of preventing the female assistant’s child from denying his mother. If the little guy did this in the future, even he, the father, would not agree. Regarding James Raybould’s He naturally accepted the invitation.
Then comes the arrangements during pregnancy.
The key is to keep it secret.
Even if it is impossible to keep it completely airtight from the outside world, the later this kind of thing is spread, the smaller the reaction will be.
For this reason, the female assistant insisted on continuing her work.
After all, the pregnancy has only lasted for more than two weeks. It is common for many women to continue working with their children for seven or eight months, so there is no need to be so cautious.
Including Janet.
The key to being so cautious the first time was that Melbourne was the first child of the Westeros family, and Janet had worked hard for a long time to finally get pregnant, so she was cautious and cautious.
Now that the little guy is over one year old, Janet has confirmed that there is nothing wrong with her body, so she is no longer so worried.
Except that both women's working hours were forced to be limited to six hours by Simon, to outsiders, nothing seemed to have changed.
Including Janet's pregnancy.
This is the first time it has been made public directly in the media. In fact, the purpose is not simple.
At that time, Simon was the richest man in the United States with a net worth of hundreds of millions in his early twenties. He had no children, which could be said to be an important weakness of his. Therefore, when Janet was pregnant in Melbourne, the news was made public immediately. In fact, it was for Dispel certain thoughts that some people may have.
This time, of course, there is no need to do that.
In order to keep it as secret as possible, even after signing a non-disclosure agreement, Simon personally issued a new gag order to the team of maids and bodyguards, as well as the team of doctors responsible for examining the two women at the Westeros House Hospital, while investigating the intelligence cultivated by the family. The team is concerned about all kinds of prying eyes from the outside world.
