Erica gripped Matthew's hand tightly and said, "I think it's possible that there is a set of twins in my belly. Didn't Mom say that my baby bump is showing a little too early?"

Debbie, a mother of three children, knew enough to glance at Erica's abdomen and tell that it was protruding sooner than expected. The young woman was thin, and she was just two months pregnant, but her belly had already begun to bulge.

So, the doctor's observation was probably right. It could be twins.

The doctor stared at the screen carefully, and after several anxious moments, confirmed. "I'm sure there's more than one baby in Mrs. Huo's belly. As the embryos are still too small, it is normal to have missed seeing twins in the previous examination, Mr. Huo. Even now, it is hard to see the other one clearly. When the babies get bigger, we'll be able to see them better."

Matthew tightened his grip on Erica's hand and nodded, "Okay, I see."

Erica was surprised, and excitement overwhelmed her. Unable to remain calm like Matthew, she kicked her legs happily and said, "Oh, my God! Twins! There are twins in my belly!"

Matthew immediately bent over and pressed her legs. "Don't move!" She was responsible for three lives now.

"Oh, okay!" Realizing that she had overreacted, Erica quickly calmed herself.

After the examination, as soon as Matthew settled her in the car, she couldn't help but throw herself into his arms again and proudly exclaim, "Matthew, aren't I great? I'm pregnant with two babies!"

With a faint smile, he touched her head, and lovingly said, "Yes, my Rika is awesome." He hadn't expected this to happen.

"Ha-ha! Hurry up and tell everyone the good news." She couldn't wait to tell everyone in their family.

A broad smile lit up Matthew's face as he pulled out his phone and sent a message to everyone in the WeChat group for the Huo family. "Twins!"

Erica, however, frowned when she saw the message in the WeChat group. The man was consistent, if nothing else. All this while, she had known and experienced that he rarely used words he considered unnecessary. Although everyone would understand what Matthew meant, she insisted that he send a more enthusiastic message. "Written poorly. You have to use a complete sentence. Redo it!"

Matthew was rendered speechless by her childish behavior and harsh tone. Nonetheless, he withdrew the message and rewrote it. "Rika is pregnant with twins."

"No, that's not right either. Don't say Rika. Say 'my wife Erica.' Please delete it and

ile sending messages in the group chat. 'Wow, my wife is beautiful, just like the day I married her.' Suddenly, Carlos was driven by the urge to show Debbie how much he still desired her.

"What did I say that was so wrong?" Wesley deliberately sounded confused. But, a mischievous smile tugged at the corners of his lips.

Carlos had other plans. He didn't want to spend more time on Wesley. "I guess Rika should call Blair to tell her the good news. I'm going to end the call now."

"Hmm. We should catch up over drinks when I come to Y City later."

"Remember to bring your liquor."

"The older you get, the more stingy you become!"

With a chuckle, the two old men ended the call, and sought their wives.

Carlos glimpsed at Debbie's phone screen. She was chatting with Erica in private. "Come to the manor for dinner tonight. I'll ask a chef to cook for you."

"Okay, thank you, Mom!" Erica gleefully accepted.

Debbie put her phone away and turned to her husband. "Find two chefs to cook dinner. Rika is pregnant with two babies. She will definitely eat a lot!"

Obediently, Carlos took out his phone and arranged for two chefs.

When he was done, he remembered why he had come to her. He held Debbie in his arms and said, "Honey, I want you to know how strong I still am! Hey, don't pinch me!"

Debbie blushed and pushed him toward the living room. She glared at him, and with feigned anger, she said, "Our grandchildren will come out soon. What if they see you? Aren't you ashamed of your behavior?"

"That doesn't matter. No matter how many grandchildren we have, you will always be my little cutie." In his eyes, Debbie would always be his girl.
