Iris paled once the thought entered her mind. Cold sweat started soaking her.

Still holding her hand, Jin Liwei felt his baby girl’s skin suddenly becoming freezing cold. He looked at her and was alarmed at how pale she had become.

"Love? What’s wrong? Do you feel sick?"

His worried tone caught everyone’s attention.

"Mama? Mama!" Little Jun called her several times.

When Iris failed to respond to him, the toddler began crying loudly.

Iris only regained her senses when he felt Little Jun pulling on her dress while crying hysterically. His pitiful tear-filled face was looking up at her with fear and worry, repeatedly calling her "Mama". Ice Cream and Popcorn were also trying to jump on her lap. Their meows were as loud as Little Jun’s cries.

Then she felt her hand hurting a little because Jin Liwei was gripping it hard. It was only then that she realized that she was almost sitting on his lap. The anxiety on his face was obvious.

Everyone gathered around her, worried. Dom was on the phone. It seemed that he was calling Dr. Ching.

"I..." Iris cleared her throat because it sounded a bit croaky. "I’m alright, really. Dom, no need to disturb the doctor. I just spaced out a little."

Despite her reassurance, they still looked worried. Iris lifted Little Jun and sat him on her lap. She needed to calm the child first, and of course, the cats too.

Wei Lan: "Honeeeey! What happened to you? Are you feeling sick? Let’s go to the hospital!"

"No need, Mother. I’m fine."

"No, you’re not fine. Whenever you’re like this, you either faint or go into coma," Jin Liwei said in a tight voice. "Dom, tell the doctor we’re coming. Yi Mei, call the driver. We’re going to the hospital RIGHT NOW."

Both Dom and Yi Mei acknowledged his instructions. Yi Mei already warmed up a lot towards Jin Liwei, ever since seeing with her own eyes how deeply in love he was with Iris and how he was treating her like a queen. However, the old housekeeper would always remain loyal to Iris, not to Jin Liwei.

"Darling, no! Everyone, please calm down! I said I’m alright. I just spaced out a bit after remembering...something. Something scary. Yes, that’s it! So don’t worry. I’m really fine. Sorry for worrying you."

It took some time but they finally looked like they believed her. They all released sighs of relief. Now, however, Jin Liwei refused to take his eyes off of her. He guarded her like a hawk, ready to rush her to the hospital at the slightest sign that she looked ill.

"Oh, thank gooooodness you’re okay, honeeey! Some colour has also returned to your face," Wei Lan said. "But I think that you should still take a pregnancy test, just to be sure. What if you’re pregnant? Being pregnant is no joke, you knooooow. And you should also be extra careful of your health, if you are. I suffered sooooo much while I was pregnant with you. I felt sick all the time! Ugh! And when I finally gave birth...ah! Worst pain ever! You literally ripped my vagina and I had to be sewed back! My vagina had never been the same since then!"

This time, all of them paled after hearing Wei Lan describe how she gave birth to Iris. Only Jiang Ying Yue sighed and nodded in complete understanding. However, her eyes gentled when she looked at her son on Iris’ lap.

Dom gasped in horror and cupped his crotch, as if he also had a vagina that could rip into two while giving birth.

Iris, who already somewhat recovered, paled once again. She turned to an equally pale Jin Liwei. "Darling!"

Jin Liwei’s hand subconsciously pressed against her flat stomach in a protective manner. Then he mumbled, "We’ll hire a surrogate...yes, yes. We should do that."

"What surrogate? If my daughter is capable of giving birth on her own, then she should! But honey, have a plastic surgeon at the delivery room just in case your vagina ever rips. At least a plastic surgeon can sew everything back together and still make it look nice, even though it would never look the same way after childbirth. Regular doctors dooooon’t care! I almost sued my obstetrician back then for ruining my vagina! Ugh!"

Wei Lan seemed to revert back to her old vain self, as she blamed her old doctor for her "botched" vagina.

With all of these talk about vaginas ripping and painful childbirth, Iris was able to forget—at least for now—the disturbing memory of the Vetrovs’ training method being similar to the education system of the orphanages owned by Wei Lan’s new husband. Besides, she also didn’t want to dwell on such dark memories.

The night ended with everyone feeling bewildered by Wei Lan’s change—in a good way.

Yi Mei and the rest of the household were especially on edge the entire time. They felt so exhausted being cautious around Wei Lan for almost the whole day. They were just waiting for the moment that she would start acting like a diva again and make life difficult for them.

Surprisingly, however, she didn’t act out and was even nice to them. The younger staff started thinking thatYi Mei and the other older staff members were overreacting or maybe just trying to scare them. The Madam might have the tendency of ignoring the staff, but at least she wasn’t snapping at them.

Their Young Miss was the best employer ever. Her mother couldn’t be that bad.

As for Yi Mei and the others, they could only hope that Wei Lan really changed. After all, the Young Miss already changed for the better as well. They didn’t want Wei Lan corrupting her own daughter to revert to her past spoiled and bitchy self. Unlike the younger staff who were already starting to warm up to Wei Lan after just the first day of her stay at the penthouse, Yi Mei and the older ones remained wary of her.

Just in case.
