Chapter 1276

Albert had been living with Xenia recently to provide better care for the "baby" growing in her belly. He had also become remarkably accommodating toward her needs. [Everytime I go to the bathroom, he'd worry that I might accidentally give birth in the toilet.] Xenia texted Stella.

Upon reading that message, Stella chuckled for quite some time, picturing Albert's anxious demeanor. He displayed the same behavior when Rainee successfully got the IVF. He was obsessed with ensuring everything was perfect. He would pre-squeeze Rainee's toothpaste every morning and serve her warm porridge.

For that brief period of bliss, Rainee entertained the idea that she would have a happy family life. However, that illusion was shattered when she suffered an unexpected miscarriage.

The truth was Albert did not harbor genuine affection for any of the women in his life. His occasional glances at Xenia only reminded him of the son he once had and not Rainee.

Stella found it both amusing and pitiful watching Albert being manipulated by Xenia's fake pregnancy.
