Chapter 214 Ism pregnan (2/2)
”Hmm?” Knitting his brows as his frown never drifted away, Ethan Lu patiently waited for her question that made her scream early in the morning. Yet, she seemed she was struggling to continue as her lips trembled.
”Love, what is it?”
”I think I'm pregnant.” Shifting her question to a horrifying statement, Lexi let out a heavy scoff as her usually composed cunning mind ran wild. She imagined herself with a baby bump and the horror of giving birth. Although she never mind having a kid at her age, still, she needed some preparation before conceiving a child.
”Haha,” Upon hearing her too advanced concern, Ethan Lu could not help but chuckle. Well, that was what he wanted after all. He knew it was selfish of him and he could not use his intense desire to have her as a wife as an excuse.
Ethan Lu then crawled to her as he snuggled on her lap while wrapping his arms around her waist. He muttered, ”I'll be responsible then.”
Fortunately, Lexi was in a trance as she didn't retaliate with his warm snuggle. He then stroked her nude back and felt that it was gradually turning cold that forced Ethan Lu to sit up and grabbed the hem of the blanket then placed it on her shoulders.
Peering at her terrified front, Ethan Lu cupped both her cheeks to snap her out of wherever her mind was wandering. ”Love, let's not think about that for now, okay? Although it will greatly disappoint me if you're not pregnant with my child.”
”Ethan!”
”Shh--” Shushing her by placing a soft loving peck on her lips, Ethan Lu parted from her lips before he could lose control and nibble on it. ”I know it's selfish of me and I can't say words that could wash your worries away but…” he paused as his gaze scanned her displeased front.
”... I will never let you down including the little sprout that we're unsure if it was planted or not. I'll take responsibility for what happened last night and our days ahead— I will protect you and love you until my last breath.”
As Lexi listened to his sentiments, she pursed her lips as she literally had nothing to say anymore. He was too matured in serious matters despite being goofy all the time. Moreover, he was right. It was too early to be paranoid if she was pregnant or not. At the very least, she should focus on her career and work really hard to establish the business she wanted to build not just for her future but for her child— which she was unsure of.
Heaving a heavy sigh, Lexi rolled her eyes as she mildly shook her head.
”Let's sleep more, okay?” Seeing that she calmed down, Ethan Lu tenderly smiled as he guided her back to bed and back to cuddling.
”I feel sick,” Lexi softly complained as Ethan Lu covered her bareback— sounding like a pampered princess complaining to her hero.
