CHAPTER 1991 I HAD A PART IN ITS CREATION
Even after pondering for some time, Jonathan did not know how to answer that question.
He shook his head, then looked at Lucian and Roxanne in confusion. “Have I changed? Why don't I feel any different? All I know is that I feel like changing my clothes now.”
Such a response made the couple change their minds. Jonathan had not changed much after all and was still as blunt as ever.
Needless to say, Roxanne also noticed that Madilyn kept sneaking glances at Jonathan. I can practically see the stars shining in her eyes. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Meanwhile, Jonathan immediately returned to his car and brought out the medicinal herbs.
Lucian nodded and thanked him with a smile. “That's so thoughtful of you.”
Roxanne knew the medicinal herbs were valuable at first glance. They were the kind that not even money could buy.
“These are all safe to be consumed during pregnancy. These must've been your recommendations, am I right?” Roxanne asked while looking at Madilyn. Jonathan may be familiar with the places of origin and prices of many medicinal herbs and can identify them, but he doesn't necessarily know much about their specific effects.
This time, Madilyn admitted to it openly. “You're right. Although Jonathan knows they're supplements,
he isn't aware of their contraindications. He previously sent my mom a ton of herbs suitable for consumption during pregnancy. Because of that, she kept urging me to get pregnant, saying they would come in handy if I do!”
Jonathan scratched his head and smiled sheepishly at the mention of that embarrassing incident.
It also quickly dawned on Madilyn that she should not have brought it up because right after that, Roxanne began teasing her relentlessly. “Well, she's not wrong. You can take them if you're pregnant. If you get pregnant in the future, I bet Jonathan will obtain all sorts of supplements for you!”
I haven't even expressed my feelings to him, but here she is, trying to let the cat out of the bag! Madilyn panicked instantly and shot Roxanne a pleading look, begging the latter not to say too much.
“That won't be a problem,” Jonathan piped up.
Roxanna burst into laughter, and even Lucian smiled.
Suddenly, they heard Estella's voice come from upstairs. “Aunt Madilyn! Aunt Madilyn, you're here! What were you talking about just now? Is Mommy pregnant?”
Archie and Benny also stuck their heads over the spiral staircase. Both of them looked at Roxanne at the same time. “Mommy, you're pregnant? Why didn't you tell us?”
All three children looked excited and were about to go downstairs when Elias reminded the two boys about the injuries on their knees.
Then, Elias carried the boys downstairs while Estella skipped over to Roxanne.
Roxanne had planned to keep it a secret for a little longer and wait until her pregnancy had progressed to a stable stage before telling the children the good news.
However, she now had no choice but to admit it. “That's right. You'll have a younger brother or sister very soon!”
“Wow! Really? You're awesome, Mommy!” Estella exclaimed, jumping for joy. She leaned forward and kissed Roxanne on the cheek several times, seemingly giving her encouragement for the pregnancy.
Archie and Benny were also all smiles. They walked over and held Roxanne's hands lovingly, one on each side.
“Mommy, you're so amazing,” Archie said, his tone sincere.
As for Benny, he was already thinking far ahead. “Mommy, how many babies are you going to have? Can you give birth to two more? Can we have another brother or sister?”
Roxanne was at a loss for how to answer his question. How many more babies am I going to have? I mean, just giving birth to one more is good enough!
As Lucian watched the children shower Roxanne with love and affection, a sense of jealousy suddenly crept over him. I'm the father of this baby. It doesn't matter whether it's a younger brother or sister. Either way, I had a part in the baby's creation, so why isn't anyone giving me credit for my contribution?
