The Baby I Lost Is Actually with My Ex-Husband!-Chapter 46 - Listening Device
Chapter 46 -46 Listening Device
Miss Lin said, “Do you really think of me as that evil? I have never betrayed you! My kindness to Han has never been out of profit! I just feel he’s like Momo, Momo grew up without a father, he grew up without a mother, I thought, I can share my love with Han, and you can share your love with Momo…”
Huo Tingdong interrupted her, “What makes you think that I would genuinely share my love for a child born of another man?”
Miss Lin retorted, “Think whatever you want! I have no need to waste words with someone like you!”
With that, she slammed the door and left.
Huo Tingdong was slightly taken aback.
She does have quite the temper, and she thinks she’s in the right.
...
Huo Tingdong became angry from embarrassment, however, he suddenly found the scene of them arguing rather ridiculous.
He never quarreled with anyone, and no one dared to argue with him.
She was the only one who dared to talk back to him.
Why should he stoop to argue with a petty woman?
She’s nothing but a mercenary woman after all!
If it weren’t for Han really liking her…
Huo Tingdong got up in annoyance and opened the door to leave, he walked over to Han’s room and gently pushed the door open.
Han and Momo shared a room, with bunk beds; the top was a bed and the bottom a combination of a desk and a bookshelf.
Both little guys had already fallen asleep, with even breathing.
Huo Tingdong immediately recognized Han, sprawled out, perhaps bloated from dinner, his belly distended, with yet undigested food inside, thus his breathing was heavy – “huff huff”, unexpectedly adorable.
Momo, on the other hand, was lying on his side, holding a doll in both hands, and under the moonlight, his long eyelashes cast a soft shadow over his eyelids.
A sense of serenity suddenly filled Huo Tingdong’s heart, and all the hostility dissipated like smoke.
…
The next day.
Miss Lin got up early, checking homework with Momo and Han, and packing their school bags.
The nanny said that Huo Tingdong had gone to the company early that morning for an urgent meeting.
“The master said he’d be back late today and told you not to wait for him for dinner.”
“Understood.”
Miss Lin took Han and Momo to Windsor High School.
Along the way, Momo was in high spirits, perhaps it was the new school, new environment, plus being able to study with Han, it was apparent their relationship was slowly improving.
He really liked Han, and Han liked him too.
Miss Lin felt relieved.
Arriving at the school, as a new student, Miss Lin escorted Momo to the classroom door.
Momo was assigned to the same class as Han – the first-grade Lion Class.
Windsor High School had a very ceremonial school culture.
As a new student, the homeroom teacher held an unconventional welcoming ceremony for Momo.
In the classroom, adorned with beautiful anthuriums, the representative plant of Lion Class, their floral language signifies ambitious plans, passion, and ardor.
Momo, with his backpack on, walked into the classroom, where the homeroom teacher Ms. Mia took Momo’s hand and smilingly said to the kids, “Classmates, let’s welcome our new little friend Lin Jinmo, is that alright?”
The kids cheered enthusiastically.
Momo wrote his name on the blackboard with chalk: Lin Jinmo.
Ms. Mia exclaimed, “Momo writes so beautifully!”

A little girl in the front row suddenly said, “I don’t recognize the middle character!”
Momo diligently annotated the pinyin above the character “Jin”.
Voices of a few classmates trying to repeat it followed, “jìn!”
“That character is hard to write!”
“Can we just call you Momo from now on?”
Momo replied, “Just call me Momo from now on.”
Miss Lin, looking at the high-end decor of the classroom, the HD projection on both sides of the blackboard, each classroom equipped with air conditioning and computers, and the well-structured classroom discipline, suddenly realized Windsor’s teaching facilities were truly excellent.
No wonder the tuition was hundreds of thousands a year.
You get what you pay for.
She hoped Momo would get along well with his classmates.
Seeing Momo blending in quickly with the group, Miss Lin smiled and nodded to the teacher, then turned and left.
Just as she got out of the school gate and into the car, her phone suddenly rang.
It was from Yuanzhou Group.
She had recently interviewed with a new company and submitted her resume; she didn’t expect to get a call from the interviewer so quickly.
“Miss Lin, are you free for an interview this morning?”
Miss Lin said, “I am, what time?”
“Ten in the morning.”
Miss Lin checked the time; it was eight-thirty. She still had time to go back and dress up.
“Alright, I’ll be there on time.”
After confirming with the interviewer, Miss Lin hung up the phone and said to the driver, “Uncle Qian, I’m going back home to change clothes. Can you take me to the Yuanzhou Group interview?”
“Sure.”
Miss Lin got home, opened the door, and hurried toward her room. Passing the living room, she saw someone sitting on the sofa, which startled her.
“Ah!”
Huo Tingdong turned around and, seeing her shocked expression, asked, “What are you screaming about?”
Miss Lin said blankly, “Why are you at home?”
Huo Tingdong replied, “Why can’t I be at home?”
Miss Lin said, “The nanny told me you left early and wouldn’t be back until late.”
“So?”
Miss Lin said, “I was startled to see you sitting in the living room.”
This morning, Huo Tingdong had an argument with shareholders due to differing opinions at the meeting and left the company early.
Seeing her in a hurry as if she was about to go out, Huo Tingdong asked, “Where are you going?”
Miss Lin replied, “To a company interview.”
“Interview?” Huo Tingdong was skeptical, “You’ve found a job?”
Miss Lin nodded.
Huo Tingdong asked, “Why look for a job?”
This little woman just made a big sum of money, why the rush for a job?
Miss Lin laughed at his question, “Can’t I have my own job? If I don’t work, how can I raise Momo?”
She couldn’t rely on those millions she had made and just idle around.
Huo Tingdong said, “The house I bought for you is worth 170 million.” He thought this apartment would let her live in ease, taking care of Han from now on.
Miss Lin replied, “That house is yours; you just haven’t had time to sort out the property rights. I know where I stand.” What if Huo Tingdong asks for it back later?
She didn’t believe the house was a gift to her.
Huo Tingdong fell silent for a moment.
Did she really think he registered the house under her name because he didn’t have time to handle the property rights?
And even if so, what of it?
That house is now under her name, does she need to be so guarded against him?
He suspected that her going out for an interview was just an excuse, what exactly she was up to, he could not tell.
Huo Tingdong fiddled with a listening device in his hand.
He had hesitated for a long time.
But the Old Lady’s words made him feel he had to be cautious of this woman – “I only have this one great-grandson for Han! I can’t trust this woman to easily care for Han! Don’t forget, this woman has betrayed you. How do you know how she treats Han privately? When you’re not by Han’s side, what if she really abuses him?”
