“Is that so?” Aidan Lucas looked at the woman in his arms with a teasing smile.

Lily Gray sensed the sarcasm in his tone and wasn’t sure if he was genuinely happy or simply mocking her for her previous “unreasonable”argument with him.

However, she thought, perhaps Mr. Hammond was right.

For the sake of their baby, should she consider getting along peacefully with Aidan Lucas for the time being?

As she was pondering this, she heard Aidan Lucas’s indifferent voice.

“Mr. Hammond, since she’s now three months pregnant and everything is normal, can we… engage in intimate activities?”

Pfft…

Lily Gray was so shocked she nearly jumped out of Aidan Lucas’s arms.

How could this man say such a thing!

She was still here; how could he ask that kind of question in front of Mr. Hammond!?

Before she could make a move, however, Aidan Lucas held her firmly in his arms.

Unperturbed, Mr. Hammond casually explained: “As long as you’re careful not to put pressure on her belly, there should be no problem. However, given your youthful vigor, Mr. Lucas, you should exercise some restraint; excessive indulgence can be harmful to the child.”

Lily Gray never expected Mr. Hammond to say such “profound truths” with such a calm face and steady heart.

What was even more unexpected was that after his instructions, Mr. Hammond then specifically provided several positions suitable for pregnant women.

Forgive Lily Gray, she genuinely couldn’t bear to listen any longer.

After Mr. Hammond sent them back to their car, Lily Gray’s face was still flushed as though it were on fire.

Her burning shame prevented her from even daring to look at Aidan Lucas.

At this moment, he was back to his usual cold and indifferent demeanor.

Sitting in the back seat, resting his chin on his palm by the window, he seemed lost in thought.

Due to embarrassment, Lily Gray stayed on her side of the car.

The atmosphere between them quickly plummeted from the sweet and warm vibe they’d just shared.

Neither of them spoke for the entire trip.

Leaning against the side, Lily Gray had a jumbled mess of thoughts, feeling both embarrassed and anxious.

As for Aidan Lucas… his deep eyes stared at the scenery outside, flickering between light and dark.

Noticing the nervous woman on the other side, he finally retracted his gaze from the window.

His eyes settled on her.

Fixated on her slightly red face.

Her delicate skin, watery peach blossom eyes, adorable upturned nose, and those lips… irresistibly inviting a kiss.

He really wanted to hold her in his arms like before.

Hold her on his lap.

Gently kiss her.

Tell her that he had to admit…

He truly had feelings for her.

But…

Every time he wanted to touch her…

The image of his beloved woman in another tall and handsome man’s arms would suddenly invade his mind.

The repeated scenes…

The image of his most beloved woman being embraced by another man.

The jealousy that nearly tore his heart apart surged once again.

Recently formed tender feelings were instantly extinguished.

He couldn’t forget that scene, no matter what.

Even though his mother had already explained it to him.

Logically, he should accept the reason why Lily approached David Redington.

But his strong possessiveness and jealousy made it impossible for him to tolerate it all.

He even imagined what their happily reconciled life would look like.

But he couldn’t….
