Chapter 1374
She didn't want to dwell on it.
"I always knew | married the best woman. Being with you is truly a blessing," Nash said as he took her hand.
He suddenly realized that Orion wasn't in the living room and asked curiously, "Where's our son? Is he sleeping
in his room?" ""No, he's working on his homework."
Nash felt a wave of emotions. "It's hard to believe how much he's grown. Remember when he was just born and
so tiny? Now he's already doing homework! Before we know it, he'll be walking to school all by himself."
"That's a good thing! Orion takes his studies seriously, and he's really getting the hang of it," Nina said, giving
him a reassuring pat on the shoulder. "Con, he's just doing homework, not starting a family. Why so
sentimental?" Gemma reached out her tiny hand to touch Nash's chin, then handed him her favorite toy.
This was her most cherished toy, but she loved her daddy even more and wanted to share it with him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNash took the plush toy from his daughter, squeezing it gently. The soft texture brought a smile to his face, but
he felt a pang of sadness. "Gemma can hold it with just one hand now, but she'll grow up so fast. The thought of
her marrying and being with another man breaks my heart."
Nina couldn't help but laugh at his words.
If Gemma were already grown up with a boyfriend, then Nash's feelings would make sense.
"But she's still so little. She hasn't even had her first birthday yet. There's plenty of tbefore she grows up and
starts a family. Why worry about the future so soon? You should go make dinner. Orion will probably be done with
his homework soon. I'll go check on him." Nina stood up to leave.
As he watched her walk away, Nash recalled the pain she endured during childbirth.
No matter how wealthy or advanced the medical care, the pain of childbirth was immense, as it was inherent to
the physical process.
If she had met someone unreliable, it would have been devastating.
He decided that when Gemma was
a bit older, he wouldn't share the traditional prince and princess
stories. Instead, he would tell hem et
stories about strong female characters to help her avoid falling for the wrong guy.
She didn't just walk in. Instead, she stood at the door and knocked lightly. Once she heard a response she
entered. "Orion, how's your homework coming along? Dad's already in the kitchen making dinner, and we'll be
eating in about half an hour."
"Mom, I'm done! Csee how many points | can get!" Orion said excitedly, holding up his notebook.
Nina took a careful look at it. His
strokes were still a bit clumsy, but it was clear he had worked hard. It was neatly done, and all the comparison
questions were correct, none wrong.
"You did great, Orion!" Nina gave him a thumbs-up. "Now take a little break before we head to dinner."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Mom, | want to go downstairs to see Gemma." Orion didn't want to be alone in his room.
He grabbed his mom's hand and rushed downstairs, pulling her toward Gemma, not letting go of her little hand.
Nina went into the kitchen to help Nash as usual.
Suddenly, Orion's voice cfrom the living room. "Mom! Where did we put our stickers?"
"They're in the bag. I'll go grab them for you right now."
