Chapter 756
Lily stared up at him, unable to respond.
"Frankly speaking, I’m not patient, and children are troublesome.However, I’d be looking forward to
them if they were our own."
He held her hand and asked, "Why? Do you want a child now?"
Gazing into his eyes, Lily wanted to let out a sigh.
Whether she wanted the child or not, it was already here.
Having her hands held between his, they felt warm, and she gradually relaxed.
After all, he was the one who had made her feel safe for over a year.
He had a right to know, just as Jenny had emphasized earlier.She gulped and mustered her courage.
"I have something to tell you."

"I might be..."
She paused and chose her words carefully.
"I might be...I might be pregnant."
Having said it out loud, she felt a sudden relief.She looked nervously at him, anticipating his response.
To her surprise, Alexander was neither shocked nor overjoyed.
His response appeared overly calm as if he was listening to stories that had nothing to do with him.
"Okay." He nodded, and that was his reaction.
"Okay?"
She turned to face him with a shocked look.
"That's all you're going to say?"
Depending on how much he wanted the child, she figured he would either be overjoyed or battling with
the same questions she had.She had not expected him to be so calm.
Seeing her bewildered look, Alexander smiled and touched her nose.
"I’m going to tell you something, but don’t be angry."
"About what?"
"I already knew."
Lily was so shocked that she almost stuttered.
"What do you mean you knew? Are you trying to say that you knew even before I told you?"
She was in disbelief when he nodded.
"When did you find out and how? I only just found out about it yesterday.Did you..."
Then a thought came to her.
"Did you...buy the gossip that was going around the company?"
The gossip wasn’t true, even if Lily discovered she was pregnant afterward.
"Gossip? What gossip?"
Apparently, he didn’t know about it.
"You didn’t hear about the gossip? Then...how did you find out?"
"There's gossip in the company? The staff must have too much free time at work!"
Narrowing his eyes, his voice grew stern.He looked much gentler as he looked back up at her.
"I saw it myself.You acted funny yesterday, and then I found a curious thing inside the trash.So..."
"You looked through the trash?"
She had the pregnancy test kit wrapped before throwing it away, but he found it anyway.It was hard for
her to imagine him looking through the trashcan.
Palming his forehead, Alexander said, "No, I only found it by accident!"
When he opened the lid of the trashcan, he saw part of the pregnancy test kit lying inside and became
curious.
With her acting oddly yesterday, it was only natural for him to find out what it was.
