Chapter 2918 After all, if Sherman and Rita were to have a baby, he would cherish them regardless of gender. He would spoil the baby like a princess if it were a girl, and if it were a son... Well, he would spoil him just the same.
Sherman smiled wryly at the thought. As long as it was his and Rita's baby, he could not possibly not adore them.
Rita, unaware of Sherman's thoughts about their future child's gender, was grumbling on her end. "I hate it here. If it weren't for getting evidence, I wouldn't have cback. I'm losing my appetite more and more in this house. Even Donna's cooking can't save it." Sherman naturally felt distressed to hear that. "Then why don't you hurry out? Do you want to sit at the dining table until the end of time?" Rita was surprised. "Are you saying you're here to pickup already?" As she walked outside while holding her phone, she smiled when she saw the car parked at the door. "Why didn't you tellearlier? I wouldn't have stayed for lunch if you had toldyou were coming! After all, the food you taketo eat is ten thousand times better than the ones I ate with them." "So, you're just going out withto avoid your dad?"

"How about we go watch a movie after lunch?" Sherman suggested.
Rita touched her stomach. "It's still empty here..." As if to prove her point, her stomach growled just as she finished speaking. Not having eaten much earlier, she was truly hungry.
Sherman chuckled softly. "Let's go, you little glutton." As Rita leaned over to fasten her seatbelt, the blush on her face betrayed what she was really feeling inside.
The feelings between the two of them quietly intensified during the numerous dates they had been on. Even though Rita was unwilling to admit that those were dates, she could not deny the excitement she felt every tshe got close to Sherman. Instead of doing anything about it, she decided to indulge in her feelings.
Sherman understood what Rita had always been concerned about, and he knew that as long as the issues in her family were not completely resolved, Rita would never dare to openly admit her feelings for him. He was willing to give her time, to let her understand her own feelings.
All he could do was to make the first move again and again, so that she would be able to hear her own thoughts amid the heartbeat that echoed tand again. He had always been a man of action, believing that as long as he did more than he said, Rita would eventually realize her feelings.
