In Matthew's office
Erica was leisurely playing with her camera while Matthew was talking with someone on the phone. It had already been more than ten minutes.
But she didn't mind. As long as she could take beautiful pictures of him, she was willing to wait patiently.
Another ten minutes had passed.
Finally, Matthew hung up.
She immediately rushed towards him with the camera in her hand. "Honey..."
Her movement alerted him, so he said in a low voice, "Slow down."

Slowly, she made it in front of him. She tiptoed and wrapped her arms around his neck. With a sweet smile, she asked, "Can we start now?"
"Sure." His hand moved to her belly and caressed it gently. This had been his habit since he found out that she was pregnant.
Upon hearing his approval, she let go of him in an instant and raised the camera. She ordered him boldly, "I always like your French window. Go to the French window now, and I'll take the first set of your photos there."
His eyebrow raised upon hearing the words "first set." It seemed that this would be a long photo session with her.
He didn't expect that she would really use this opportunity.
When he was ready, Erica raised her camera and aimed it at him. However, she suddenly changed her mind. "Honey, I like you better in a white shirt. Take off your suit, please."
Matthew sighed inwardly. He swore that no one in this world had a command power over him like Erica. Although his face darkened a little, he still did what she asked him to do silently.
Wearing just a white shirt and a dark blue tie, he casually stood in front of the French window, making the view more beautiful.
Erica pressed the shutter button several times before she checked the photos. With eyes on the screen of the camera, she commented, "It looks a little formal. Honey, how about loosening your tie a little? You look more handsome when you are casual and relaxed."
'More handsome? She's definitely good at flattering people, ' he thought. But he remained quiet and just followed her instructions obediently.
Erica made sure that she hadn't missed his every move. From untying his tie with his fair and slender fingers, unbuttoning his shirt, straightening

After sending her entries to the organizers, she also sent the photos to Matthew, forcing him to use them as his phone and computer wallpaper.
She also wanted him to post them on Weibo, but he refused. He said that he didn't have a Weibo account.
But she remembered that when she borrowed his phone last time to answer Debbie's phone call, she saw a Weibo app installed on his phone.

Never mind.'
She didn't think too much about it.
Meanwhile, Hyatt also submitted a photo for the competition. It was a picture of several children playing Chinese garter game on the street. He named his entry "Childhood."
Now, all they needed to do was wait for the result.
On the second month of Erica's pregnancy, Matthew canceled all his appointments and accompanied her to the hospital for checkup and ultrasound.
Erica was lying on the bed while the doctor was standing next to her. Matthew was watching on the other side of the bed.
He was staring at her slightly bulgy belly.
A few minutes later, the doctor said excitedly, "Mr. Huo, Mrs. Huo is probably pregnant with... twins!"
"What?!" Erica was the first to react.
Matthew was also surprised. She was already checked in A Country before, but the doctor there didn't say it was a set of twins. Suppressing his excitement, he ordered in a deep voice, "Check it again carefully."
"Yes, Mr. Huo," the doctor answered.
