Was Leander, Nigel, Luna, and her kid bing a true family of four?


    The more I thought about it, the colder my heart felt,


    For the first time, I realized that years of marital bliss might just be an illusion.


    ...


    "Ding-dong."


    The sound of the doorbell brought me back to reality. ncing at the clock on the wall, I realized it was the time Leander came home from work.


    As I opened the door, I was puzzled not to see Nigel. Normally, Leander would pick up Nigel on his way home.


    "Where''s our son?"


    "He''s still sulking and didn''t want toe home." Leander wrapped his arms around me. "I thought, it''s been a while since we had some alone time, so I dropped him off at his grandma''s."


    He nuzzled against my shoulder, cooing, "Honey."


    I didn''t know how to react.


    Once the seeds of doubt are nted, they start to grow uncontrobly...


    When we first got married, he was so loving, yet his mind was still on Luna.


    Now, he still seems so affectionate...


    But I couldn''t help but wonder if he truly loved me now or if it was all just an act.


    Leander''s hand rested on my stomach, gently caressing.


    I snapped back. "Hmm?"


    Leander tentatively asked, "Should we try for another baby?"N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.


    I froze. "Why?"


    "After going to work today, I''ve been thinking a lot." Leander exined calmly, "I used to be really into Luna, but after she came back, we spent some time together... I still feel happiest being with you." I instinctively turned to look into Leander''s eyes.


    His expression was sincere. He did not seem to be lying.


    I hesitated, "If that''s the case, then let''s focus on our life together..."


    Leander took my face in his hands, smiling as he kissed me. "On the way here, I talked with Nigel, and he said he''d like a little brother or sister too. You know, I''ve always dreamed of having two kids." "So, honey..."


    "Please don''t say no."


    His eyes, so full of emotion, tempted me, making it impossible to refuse.


    We already have a son. He wanted to have a daughter...


    From now on, he''dmit to our family. With a sibling, Nigel would take on the responsibility of being a big brother and be more sensible.


    Such a beautiful future was enticing me...


    I nodded.


    Seeing my agreement, Leander, with one arm around my waist and the other cradling the back of my head, kissed me irresistibly.


    I closed my eyes, surrendering.


    Meanwhile, I silently reassured myself...


    Leander hadn''t actually cheated and was willing to cut ties with Luna.


    As for Nigel, I''d be patient and guide him to be better.


    From now on, we''d still be just an ordinary family.


    "Ring-a-ling!"


    The sharp ringtone of the phone shattered the intimate atmosphere.


    Leander didn''t even check who was calling and was about to turn off the phone and toss it aside.


    But I caught a glimpse of the name on the screen, my blood running cold as I pushed him away. "It''s Luna calling."


    Hadn''t he said he''d block Luna?


    How could she still reach him?


    Leander didn''t even get the chance to look at me before he turned to grab the phone.


    "Leander, what do we do? Nigel has a stomach bug and is in the hospital!"
