Chapter 1353
Realizing her words might have come off a bit too strong, she quickly backpedaled, "I was just making an analogy!"
"Well, even that analogy is off-limits."
Everett couldn't even stand to hear it!
"Alright, I'll drop it!" Dorothy waved her hands dismissively, "What I mean is, some things are just left to fate! We should focus on whether we're happy now, that's all that matters. Dwelling on what ifs is just asking for trouble."
If fate decided their time was up, then even without children, even if everything else was perfect, disaster could still strike out of nowhere.
Everett had made Dorothy increasingly aware of this fact, so she wasn't afraid.
On the contrary, she genuinely felt that if she could spare Everett any regrets, that would be meaningful.
Especially since he loved kids so much.
He would be an amazing dad!
Having another baby for him meant there would be one more child in the world deeply cherished by their father. How wonderful would that be?
Everett pursed his lips, still hesitating.
Dorothy got up and walked over to him, taking his hand, "Aren't you the one who promised to fulfill all my wishes?"
"As long as it doesn't harm you, I'm willing to agree to anything else."
"But when you made that promise, there were no conditions attached!"
Dorothy chuckled, "Everett, it's time our family welcomed a new life! It would give both you and me, new hope."
Seeing her so determined, Everett knew deep down he would give in.
When it came to Dorothy, he seemed to have no choice but to compromise.
Even though he appeared to be the dominant force in their relationship, in reality, Dorothy always had the upper hand! Whatever Everett did, it was ultimately guided by her wishes. "Trust me."
In the end, all Everett could do was sigh.
"Just don't forget what you promised me last night."
"Huh? What did I promise?" Dorothy genuinely couldn't remember at that moment.
"...During the pregnancy and even before, you have to follow my lead! If I say rest you rest. If your business gets too demanding, I'll send someone to help out. Your company won't suffer, but you- you must listen to me."
Dorothy raised an eyebrow, taken aback.
"Did I really agree to all that last night?"
She vaguely remembered agreeing to something much simpler.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
"Yes, you did."
"If you go back on your word, then I won't cooperate."
But that hardly threatened Dorothy.
She scoffed, "As if you could resist?"
He was at that prime, virile age! And after holding back for so many
years
Dorothy didn't believe him for
a second.

Everett had no recourse but to pull her into his embrace, "What am I going to do with you?"
"No choice! You're the one who brought this upon yourself, so you'll just have to spoil me."
Everett finally laughed, his lips curving upwards, "Yes, I'll just have to spoil you."
"So, should we go and make it official? We can hold off on the wedding, but let's make it legal." Dorothy said, looking into Everett's eyes.
He furrowed his brows slightly, his lips tight, "That's something I should be suggesting!"
"Why so many rules? It doesn't matter who suggests it." She shrugged, "Anyway, I don't see
myself marrying anyone elseel
lifetime."
Everett was her only option.
Whether there was a proposal or any ceremony, Dorothy really didn't care.
But Everett cared a lot.
"I'll pretend I didn't hear that. I'll be the one to bring it up officially."
