Chapter 1003
The question was: “Boy or girl, it’s all down to your chromosomes, dude! Don’t be throwing blame at your daughter-
in-law. Go to church, stay till dawn, and apologize to God!”
“Our family’s just going down the drain generation after generation. You, as a man, can’t face the music when you
screw up but drag your wife into it. What a disgrace!”
Every time Blake remembered these conversations, he felt his skin crawl. Especially since his eldest and second
sons had already had a son each with their wives.
So, Baillie’s situation was crucial.
Simple reason: the eldest and second sons had already taken the heat from the family.
But Baillie wouldn’t be treated that way.
Not because Baillie was some sort of special. But because the old folks at home loved Baillie, they were also scared

He thought: I’m almost sixty, and I’m still taking this heat, so I should seek divine help.
“Right, didn’t Auntie say there was a magical doctor who has made a potion that guarantees a daughter? I should
find him and get that potion.”
“Relax, honey.” Kate comforted her anxious husband while she busily texted for help.
The day after lunch, Paige and Baillie had to leave.
Normally serious Kate, holding Paige’s hand, unwilling to let go, slipped two massive diamond rings on her fingers,
“Come back more often during your holidays. Don’t wait for Baillie. If he’s busy, come by yourself! Let me know so
l’can prepare delicious food for you!”
“Sure, I got it!” Paige nodded with a smile.
“How adorable! Such a sweetheart!” Grandma petted Paige’s hand.
“We should go now.” Baillie walked over.
“What’s the rush! It’s not like I’m going to steal your wife!” Grandma huffed, suddenly took out a diamond bracelet
from nowhere and snapped it onto Paige’s delicate wrist, “Tell me anything you want. I’m loaded! I can afford
anything!”
Paige didn’t know how to respond all of a sudden. In the Scott family, she was completely bathed in affection. It was
an experience she never had.
“You’ve given me too many gifts.” Paige smiled helplessly.
“Not at all!” Kate looked at Paige lovingly, “I don’t have my own kids, but I feel a kinship with you, as if you were my
own. I just want to give you all the best!”
Then, she added proudly, “These things, Baillie couldn’t afford to buy for you. It’s not about the price, but these are
rare treasures!”
Paige couldn’t refuse. So she accepted them all.
As they left Auntie’s house, they were ready to leave.

“What’s this?”
Paige reached out to touch. It was still warm.
“It’s a medicine from my dad.” Baillie said helplessly.
“What medicine?” Paige asked in surprise, “Are you feeling unwell?”
Baillie answered Paige: “Supposedly, if you take this, we can have a daughter.”
“What?” Paige was even more surprised, “For me?”
“For me.” Baillie smiled helplessly, “My dad said, whether to have a boy or a girl is my problem to solve, so I should
take the medicine. He also said that they would send medicine every week.”
Paige was speechless, she couldn’t utter a word.
“Your father is really…” Paige couldn’t find a perfect adjective, “He is simply a role model!”
Then she gave a thumbs up.
Nothing was perfect, mate.
