My mom agreed with Atlas, saying, "Atlas is right. You can't be reckless. From now on, you should try to reduce your workload as much as possible. You need to think about the child." Grandma Rose immediately said, "Why are you still here? Go take a shower and rest, quickly. Your mom and I will prepare ssupplements for you and get a doctor to ccheck on you!" "Oh, don't be so nervous. I'm fine. He just said that because he's worried." I glanced at Atlas and rolled my eyes. "He's making a fuss over nothing." "Don't take this too lightly. The first trimester is very important. You're not young anymore, so you have to be careful," my mom said nervously. "Go back to your room and rest!" Atlas was even more eager. Without a word, he pickedup and turned back to the building.
I said shyly, "Can't you be a little more discreet? This is embarrassing." He smirked disdainfully. "We're married. Why are you embarrassed? This is my first tbeing a real dad, so of course I'm nervous." His words leftspeechless. It was true. There was no way he wouldn't be nervous. This was his first tbeing a dad! As we walked, he said, "It would be great if we had a son, right? Then we'll have a boy and a girl. A perfect combination!" "So you prefer a son?" I winked at him and said coquettishly, "When the tcomes, I hope you won't favor the boy." "Of course not. I'm partial to my daughter." His words made my heart blossom with joy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen I found out that I was pregnant with Ava, Matthew wasn't very enthusiastic. He thought it was a little early because the firm was just getting started. But only he knew the real reason for his reaction.
I shook my head. Why was I thinking about Matthew again? The Murphys had always preferred sons and hoped for them eagerly. After I gave birth, when they said it was a daughter, Matthew's father left the hospital immediately.
It was like it happened yesterday.
"When I gave birth to Ava, the Murphy family was upset because it was a girl." I looked at Atlas and said, "Just because it was a girl." "What's the big deal? I said I hoped it would be a boy because it would make a good pair, but that was just a joke. Don't worry. I'll be fine with anything. If it's a boy, that would be good. If it's a girl, then we'll have a pair of sisters in our family. They'll be inseparable. I'll make sure the two princesses of the Pierce family will be the happiest girls in the world. You can trust me!" Content belongs to en.kikistories"I need to have a son! If this one is a girl, then I'll have another one!" I said firmly.
"Having those two would be good enough. Looks like you're really confident in your strength!" He teased as he looked at me.
I blushed and laughed, hitting him lightly, "Stop that nonsense. I like children. I would love to have a son, too." We laughed and joked as we returned to our room.

Drowsiness suddenly overwhelmed me. When Atlas helpedtake out a change of clothes, I had almost fallen asleep in the bathtub. He immediately liftedout. "You should finish washing up beforesleep. It's dangerous for you to fall asleep like this. You could drown, you know? Next time, don't take a bath if you're alone, understand?" Content belongs to en.kikistories"Stop nagging me!" I murmured, my eyes closed.
He chuckled lightly, kissed me, then coveredwith the blanket on the bed. He went to get the hairdryer and dried my hair carefully. The warm air blowing through my hair made my scalp tingle. I turned over and fell asleep.
Maybe it was because I had finally returned home, or perhaps it was because my father had finally been brought back, or maybe it was because Thadn't slept well thesepast few days, or perhaps it was because I was pregnant and felt sleepy. I fell into a deep sleep. When I opened my eyes again, it was the next morning. Content belongs to en.kikistoriesI was startled when I saw Ava by my bed, looking atwith a curious expression.
