Fortunate to Have You This Lifetime-Chapter 594 - Just Need to Lie Down_1

Chapter 594: Chapter 594 Just Need to Lie Down_1

After dinner, the four of them gathered around the dining table and talked about children for a long time.

Lily Howard had bought Sarah heaps of maternity and baby products. Buying these things now was really premature, but according to Lily: she just couldn’t help herself.

Before nine o’clock, Lily coaxed Sarah to go to sleep, claiming it was for the good of the baby in her belly.

Sarah listened to Lily obediently, and the two of them sweetly headed back to their room to rest.

Purple Summers picked up a child’s plush toy, found it novel, and wondered: Does everyone with a baby become like this? A shopping maniac for maternity and baby products?

In her past two lifetimes, she had never had children, not that she regretted it; she was merely curious.

Alexander Summers watched her from the side and asked with a smile, “Do you want to experience it?”

“Experience what?” Purple was puzzled.

Alexander said, “Experience what it’s like to have a child.”

Purple, hearing this response, felt completely unenthused, disdainfully rolled her eyes at Alexander, and couldn’t even be bothered to scold him.

Alexander took the plush toy from her hands, smiled, and stuffed it into Purple’s clothes, patting the bulge that formed, “There, now experience it.”

Purple: “…”

“What’s wrong?” Alexander earnestly scrutinized Purple, teasingly said, “You seem a bit disappointed. Did you think I was actually going to get you pregnant?”

Purple pulled the stuffed toy out of her clothes and angrily threw it at Alexander’s face, “Boring!”

She turned and went upstairs.

Alexander picked up the toy, quickly caught up to her with his long strides, and grabbing her hand said, “Purple, although we can’t have kids just yet, we should start planning for it. Starting today, we need to quit smoking and drinking so we can have a beautiful and healthy princess.”

He always talked about having daughters, three of them, in fact.

But Purple wanted to have a boy.

It wasn’t out of any gender preference, but because she felt that women’s lives are especially difficult in this world.

Perhaps men’s lives are difficult too?

…Forget it, she was a woman; she couldn’t empathize with men.

Purple shook off Alexander’s hand with a little force, but not enough to break free.

Her cheeks flushed, her tone proud, “Up to you, quit if you want to.”

“You need to quit too,” Alexander reminded her, “From now on, no more drinking, stay away from places with chemical pollution, and use your phone less, it has radiation.”

Purple said irritably, “It’s too much trouble; I won’t have any!”

“It’s not a hassle,” Alexander coaxed her up the stairs, “you just need to lie there…”

…

The night air in May was cool, filled with the faint, fresh scent of grass and trees.

Jade Carlson lay in bed with an indescribable feeling of restlessness inside her, clawing at her insides so she couldn’t sleep.

She sat up, drank a big glass of water, but still couldn’t calm down.

The irritability made it impossible for her to focus or think clearly. Jade found it unbearable, thinking to herself: Just one would do, just one… It’s fine…

She glanced at her phone; it showed 11:20 PM.

Everyone should be asleep by this time, right?

Jade opened her closet, reached into the pile of clothes, and after a moment, pulled out two cigarettes.

Nathaniel Summers smoked, but he wasn’t one to keep track of how many cigarettes he had left in the pack; when Jade went in and out of his bedroom and study to clean, the cigarette pack was just lying on the table.

She’d always take one or two without anyone noticing.

Holding the cigarettes, Jade told herself: It’s okay, just one.

She couldn’t find a lighter in her room, which she found strange, suddenly recalling that Evelyn Willard had come to the Summers Family house today. Could it be that Evelyn had taken her lighter?

After all, Evelyn herself was an addict…

Jade grew even more restless.

Enduring the discomfort, she went to Evelyn’s room.

Evelyn wasn’t asleep; seeing Jade come in, she slightly furrowed her brows and asked, “Why aren’t you asleep yet?”frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
