Chapter 421 - Special way to tell Scott?
"Scott…..she is…"
She gulped her saliva and whispered. "Don't tell her that I told you. Actually she came yesterday to look into the details of that person's health and later she said that she isn't willing to continue this mission anymore. And she told she want a long vacation"
"She looked so tense and I tried to ease her a little bit by making a bet with her. It is to act totally different and make you feel worried. So you will come looking for me for explanation. If this happens before two days counting from yesterday she wins. If you fail to notice the weird changes in her then I win. That's it….nothing else" Mia smiled.
Jean called her and said about the incidents happened today. At first the brushing and breakfast incident and later during lunch when she sat down to eat her stomach churned and she felt like to puke.
So Jean took her plate and escaped quickly to her study room making Scott look at her with shock. After that she locked herself in her room. It is too uncommon for her that he rushed to meet Mia.
The bet might be weird but this is common for this insane girls to bet on stupid topics like this. It is like their little stress busters in missions like this…
"Nothing more than this right" Scott asked in his cold voice.
"Nothing more Scott. She is stressed and I tried to decrease it like this. She surely would have felt little better" Mia said.
Scott noticed Jean's small smile and her feign anger on him. Every time she acted weird like this she use to giggle and smile. May be his reactions to her weird acting might have amused Jean a lot.
This is what he believed. But every time Jean escaped from his eyes she use to fell relieved as well as happy because of their baby
"OK then. Bye Mia." Scott said and went back.
Mia sighed in relief. Though her explanation sounds weird to others. For Scott it is a common thing because they have done more stupid bets than this.
As soon as he went away Mia called Jean.
"When are you planning to tell him" she asked as soon as Jean accepted the call.
Jean who just switched off her laptop after arranging some things smiled. He might have gone to meet Mia as she expected.
Thank god that she and Mia already discussed about the excuse Mia should give to Scott.
Caressing her flat stomach Jean giggled. "Tomorrow"
Mia giggled in return. "Don't forget to record it ok" she asked.
"Hmm…I can only guarantee you a little. Who knows how my pervert husband will react. We might even start our over PDA which a singles like you can't bear to see" Jean teased.
Mia huffed and pouted. "How are you going to make it special….did you decide" she asked.
"Of course I came up with a unique idea and
the only thing I want is to throw him out of the house for the next day so I can do my preparations" Jean giggled.
"Well, all the best. And take care" Mia said and both of them ended the call after biding good night.
Jean sighed and caressed her stomach. "Baby, how do you think daddy will react. I am excited you know" Jean softly murmured to herself.
She is very excited to see her baby and spend every second of her time with her precious. She really can't wait for nine long months.
After thinking for a while Jean called Jeff and Iris.
She knew that Mia said to Jeff about this.
…
Jeff and Iris are sleeping after their exercise. As Jasper went back to Danielle and Hope they are at last left alone. So they are spending it to their best extent.
Jeff frowned and took his mobile from the beside table without disturbing Iris who is sleeping beside him.
He scolded the person who interrupted their time but when he saw the ID 'little sister' he smiled warmly and his eyes twinkled.
He swiftly answered the call. "Hello Miss future mother." He teased her.
Though he knew he wanted to wait if Jean will not hesitate to talk to him about this.
He knew that she is keeping it secret from everyone.
Whereas Jean never understood why but she trusted Jeff as much as she trust Ray and Nathan. He felt very familiar and close to her and she didn't understand why…
But what she don't know is that Jeff is her first friend. They had their baby talks and both shared their toys and baby quarreled with each other for almost one year before they got parted.
Her first talk, first walk and crawling is with him, holding his hand so she will be safe. Of course she feel familiar. He even use to wrap his arm around her at night so she will not cry and disturb her parents and Maria.
What she don't know is that her baby will also have two more troublesome companions to share these first moments with.
"With your hoarse voice I think I disturbed your quality time" Jean teased back.
"So experienced are we. You even found what we are doing here" he chuckled and kissed Iris in his arms.
"Yep very experienced. Otherwise I will not be pregnant this soon right" Jean shamelessly flaunted.
Jeff have become incredibly close to her after spending some time with him and Jas. She even can joke and tease him with these matters now.
Jeff coughed at her bold words. "Pregnancy hormones are showing up so early I think. Go and find for your husband" he too teased back.
"Haha…too bad. He is out somewhere otherwise I would have surely did" Jean shamelessly laughed again.
"Hey, where did my usual and shy sister go. This pregnant woman is too bold to be my sissy Jean" he laughed.
