Holding a book in her arms, Michelle walked beside Richard and whispered, "Is Nini pregnant?"
Richard was not Henry. Richard was a man of few words and he seldom gave any responses.
Michelle thought that Richard didn't hear her, so she asked again, "Is Nini pregnant? Back then, Uncle John would carry her in his arms. Now he carries her on his back instead."
Noticing that Michelle kept talking, Richard replied, "I don't know."
"Oh. Okay." Michelle was sure that her best friend was pregnant.
She decided to go back and check what pregnant women shouldn't do.
After two years, there would be a cute toddler following her.
Thinking about it made Michelle happy, she could not help but put on a bright smile.
The four of them had dinner at a restaurant.
Michelle had been staring at Nina's belly, tilting her head and wondering if the baby in Nina's womb was only the size of a grain of rice.
John's gaze became intimidating. Perhaps it was because he caught Michelle staring at his wife for too long. "Michelle," he called out coldly.
The warning was obvious.
Michelle shivered all over. John's eyes were ominously cold.
Michelle was terrified,

him?
Nina felt sorry for Chester, but even sorrier for John.
"I'm sorry."
For the first time, John did not get mad about Nina hugging Chester. He was once in that situation, he was not as brave and as lucky as Chester.
There was not a person like Nina in his childhood. He had never asked Sam why he had come back so late.
"We haven't eaten yet. Let's go eat," John lied.
Nina did not try and debunk John's little lie. She held Chester's hand and said with a smile, "Let's go to dinner."
"Okay, let's eat!" Chester had no clue. He happily held Nina's hand and tugged on John's sleeve.
John pretended not to know, but slowed down a bit.
They were like a typical family of three followed by a happy dog.
'Uncle John, Aunt Nina. I will be filial to you, just like how I am with Mom and Dad.'
That night when John was taking a shower, Nina touched her belly and rubbed it.
The reason why John wanted a child was that he wanted a complete family.
"I want a complete family. It's something I've always longed for." With a gentle but mischievous smile, Nina quietly went to Helen and took one of her needles. She found John's stash of condoms and pricked them one by one.
