Mommy, Where's Daddy? The Forsaken Daughter's Return

Chapter 103: Fresh Fruits



Chapter 103: Fresh Fruits

"Honey, wake up. Hon," Samantha softly spoke while waking Ethan. She repeatedly yet gently shook his arm and said, "Hon, I'm hungry."

Baby one was turning 16 weeks old while baby two was already 13 weeks. Starvation started to kick in in the wee hours, and Samantha felt even more nauseated on an empty stomach.

Since Ethan did not like it when she disappeared out of nowhere, she had no choice but to disturb his sleep.

Humming as he awoke, Ethan massaged his temples before turning to his wife. His eyes remained hooded, recalling how they had slept past twelve, trying to settle Samantha's stomach.

In his bedroom voice, he echoed, "You are... hungry?"

"Yes, hon. I could go down the kitchen - "

"No, I'll get something for you. What do you think you can stomach?" Ethan weakly asked while trying to get up from the bed.

That was a difficult question for Samantha. Truth be told, it was so burdensome to figure out what she could eat. It has been that way since her nausea began.

Taking a deep breath, she answered, "Um... I think there was still that stir-fried broccoli and beef left on the fridge, hon. I would like those really warm."

Ethan nodded and said, "Okay."

"And hon, please refill my water," Samantha reminded, pointing to her tumbler by the bedside table. "Lukewarm, please."

"Got it," answered Ethan.

"And bring an orange too," added Samantha. "It helps me with the nausea."

"Right. Orange," said Ethan.

"And, I want the freshest once. The freshest citrus orange," she instructed. "They are heavier."

"The fresher oranges... are heavier. Got it," Ethan repeated with a brow raised. Never had he had to decide which ones are fresher for fruits, especially oranges. Now was the time for him to learn.

Ethan did notice how sweet and slightly sour fruits really seemed to comfort Samantha now, but she had to eat properly with the way she has been eating the same. Otherwise, her stomach acidity was another problem to overcome.

Considering how Ethan had been getting up during the wee hours to grab a snack or meal for his wife, Ethan needed to improvise things. Otherwise, he would have lesser sleep every night while Samantha was pregnant.

The next evening. When Samantha came home from work. She noticed the giggles coming from her children as she joined them for dinner.

"Mommy is going to be super surprised," said Kenzie before chuckling.

"I'd like to sleep in Mommy's room now," Kyle remarked with glee.

Looking at Ethan, Samantha raised a brow and asked, "What's going on, hon?"

She decided to go straight to dinner with the kids that evening, not even changing and getting into their bedroom.

In response, Ethan just smirked and said, "It's a surprise, hon."

Following their family dinner, Samantha went to the master bedroom with her husband and two kids walking behind her. They were all eager to find her reaction.

Samantha pouted her lips as she wrapped her slender hands around the doorknob. She turned to her family and asked, "This must be quite a surprise?"

"Uhuh!" Answered Kyle.

"I love it, Mommy!" Kenzie added.

Finally opening the door, Samantha's jaws dropped. Her eyeballs practically popped out of her eyes when she saw a food chiller inside the bedroom.

The food chiller had several meal options and freshly squeezed fruit juices for her to choose from. Right next to it was a countertop with a microwave and utensils for her to use.

If that was shocking enough, she screamed, seeing a four-foot dwarf orange plant on the left side of their bed. "Oh, my god! Ethan!"

Samantha wound up laughing so hard, her eyes watered and her stomach hurt. "I can't believe you!"

Kenzie walked in immediately, picking one small orange from the potted tree. She told her Mommy, "It's really sweet, Mom. Try it!"

"Give me some!" Kyle asked, following his sister. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

"It's just a mandarin orange. The real oranges were much bigger, even when dwarfed," explained Ethan. "They have the same acidity, but much sweeter. I hope you'll like it."

Pointing to the plant, he said, "The maids will take them out every morning and bring it back here in the evening. They will forever be fresh... Just the way you like it."

"Oh, my goodness, Ethan. You are just impossible!" She raised her hands as she continued to laugh.

She walked over to the kids and had a taste for herself.

There was nothing else, but a smile plastered on her face as she ate pieces of the mandarin orange. "It's good. It's sweet and has the right kick of acidity."

Samantha took a second to appreciate the plant that bore the small oranges, and she sighed. She told the kids, "Your Daddy just does whatever he likes."

"For as long as it is within my grasp, I will do it," Ethan told before he head for the shower. "Enjoy your oranges while I take a bath."

Feeling so elated by her surprise, Samantha remained to giggle and smile even after putting the children to sleep.

They were already ready to rest for the evening when she snacked on the mandarin oranges. She remarked, "It really feels good and smells good too."

"I'm glad you like it, hon," said Ethan while climbing onto the bed.

"And I am impressed by how you maximized the space of our room." Samantha chuckled, pointing to the food chiller.

"Hmmm. It's not good for you to keep going up and down the stairs. We could at least minimize it," Ethan replied before pecking on her cheeks. "Goodnight, Sam. I hope you have a better sleep tonight."

"Goodnight, hon. I love you," Samantha said.

"I love you too," Ethan answered with a smile.

At four in the morning, Samantha could not help but get up, feeling all hungry again. However, since she had several food options available from inside their room, she did not have to wake up her husband.

Despite her modest movements, however, Ethan managed to get up and helped her warm her food. He only returned to sleep when Samantha was already eating.

Feeling all happy with her very early snack and her mandarin orange, Samantha leaned back on the headboard, caressing her tummy. She had to admit; she was too full to sleep.

An idea suddenly crept into her head. She bit her lip before peeping under the blanket. When she confirmed her husband was already having his morning erection, Samantha thought to give Ethan a little reward.

After stripping down her sleeping dress, she rode on him completely naked.

Ethan could not be happier. Early that morning, he got rewarded for treating his wife right.

The following evening, Samantha came home late because of an event at the hotel.

When she barged into the master bedroom, she wound up exclaiming and giggling. "Oh, my god! Ethan! What are those?"

There were two added potted plants in the room. One bearing strawberries and the other had wild cherries.

Ethan was already on the bed, working on his laptop when Samantha arrived. He smiled in delight seeing the amused expression in her eyes. He cleared his throat and asked, "Do you like it? Fresh fruits only for my wife."

With a sly grin, he narrowed his eyes and immediately asked, "Do I get rewarded for it too?"

Samantha laughed boisterously before answering, "Yeah... if they taste good, I will!"
