Chapter 163 - Cold + Drought

Since Lu Fang and Andrea were set to leave for Korea the week after, Alfred arranged for Christina and Lu Wei to visit Britain the next month. 

The couple had gone back to the office to take care of work, while Alfred, Gabriel, Christina, and Lu Wei went back to the Oriental Hotel and discussed important matters. 

Gao Rou and Hanxi, on the other hand, sent Lu Jie home before returning to Lu-Wei Enterprises. 

Christina was astonished looking at the documents before her. It was the transfer of deeds for some of the Davies' properties and shares to the Davies Group of Companies. She let out a long sigh before saying a word, "I'm not sure if I deserve this Alfred -"

"Of course you do! You are a Davies. It was wrong for our father to cut you off like that, but it doesn't matter now. He already passed away. It is my responsibility to make things right by you."

Christina looked up to Gabriela and asked, "Are you comfortable with this?"

Gabriel smiled at his Aunt's reaction and replied, "Aunt, the Davies Group of Companies is too big for me to handle alone. As you know, great grandfather was very particular about passing shares only to family members. Up to now, we were never able to find someone equally deserving to help manage the company. If we were to teach someone, it might as well be a Davies."

Lu Wei felt the weight on his shoulders. Lu-Wei Enterprises alone was a big responsibility. How much more taking part in the Davies Group of Companies. 

The four continued to talk about running the two companies simultaneously and eventually passing the responsibilities to Lu Fang, Andrea, and Gabriel. Lu Wei realized that going global was now inevitable. He will have to get Gao Rou involved in the business, he had no one else to trust his company to. 

Alfred returned to Europe after three days of spending time with Christina and Andrea.  He needed to take care of Nancy and their divorce agreement. At the same time, he needed to create an opening for Christina to the members of the board. 

Within that week, Harold Smith kept on calling Lu Fang that he began to wonder what was his obsession over becoming partners with him.

Andrea frowned hearing her husband wine over a possible business venture. She thought Intramed Wise Corporation a very reliable company, but she also found it rather odd that they were pressing on becoming partners when there were so many options out there. Lu Fang even recommended for Mr. Smith to affiliate with the Royal Dragon, but he preferred to work with Lu-Wei Enterprises. To Andrea, it did not sound right. 

"I will look up his company," she said.

"He said he will meet us in Korea. I agreed anyway, just for dinner."

She nodded while asking for her laptop and got her fingers busy. 

That night, she was able to dig as much information on Harold Smith and his family. They were incredibly wealthy, equally rich to that of the Xias. His corporation existed for just nearly a decade but his father had other investments and they were already traditionally rich. His daughter has a congenital heart disease resulting in her to have had three major operations since birth.

In the end, she did not find anything questionable about them or the company. She got ready for bed worry-free, not considering the Smiths as a threat, but with every intention to keep a watchful eye on them. 

"Babe, I did not find anything suspicious other than Mr. Smith spoiling her daughter. However, it seemed understandable considering her heart condition."

"That's is a relief, babe," said Lu Fang as he came out of their walk-in closet wearing a jacket and jogging pants.

Andrea pouted her lips and asked, "Are you hiding something from me?"

"What?"

"Why are you all covered?"

"Babe, if you haven't noticed, I have been wearing these for a few days now. Gone are the times when I slept butt naked with my wife… at least for now."

"Pfft!" Andrea laughed at his complaint. 

"There should be warnings to all fathers to be out there. When your wife gets pregnant, prepare your bedroom to be turned into an igloo," he said as he tucked himself under the sheets. 

"That's too much, babe. It's not that cold," she wrinkled her nose as she said this. 

He merely chuckled after her response and slid his hands to hug her waist and belly.

It wasn't like her, but after the third month of pregnancy, she could not help the developments in her body. Lately, she had been feeling warmer than usual. She often turned down the room temperature.

At first, the man still slept in his boxers but a few days ago, she felt even warmer, completely turning the air conditioning to its lowest. On top of that, she had their AC switched with a higher horsepower making their room into frosty. 

Since then, Lu Fang resorted to thicker clothing while she wore her husband's shirt and a new set of pregnancy underwear. 

Her nighties no longer fit her, but instead of buying pregnancy sleeping wear, she would rather sleep in her man's clothes. As a result, it was Lu fang who had to buy more shirts for himself. 

"Well, too bad. I was thinking of giving you a blow tonight, but since you are all wrapped up, I will just get some sleep."

The man's eyes which were earlier closed instantly opened hearing this. He sat up and began removing his jogging pants. He hugged and kissed her on the lips before saying, "I can just put it back on later."

He laid down as his wife went under the sheets and started to stroke his length. When he finally felt her mouth sucking him, it relieved him making him moan instantly.

It had been months since they were intimate. Not too long ago, Andrea finally allowed heavy kissing. He literally felt he had gone through drought not having been able to do naughty things with his wife.  

When Andrea was still vomiting excessively, several factors disgusted her to the core including her own saliva. All the more, another person's fluid. Regardless if it was her lover, she could not bear to give the man a French Kiss.

For almost two months, they only gave each other pecks or mild kisses. She also didn't feel like doing it at all. The man literally had not cum since days before Andrea's admission to the hospital. It was hard for him, but he had to endure and understand the changes in his wife while carrying babies.
