“Alright, it’s decided then. Rest up at home.” Elizabeth didn’t want to prolong the conversation and
made a conclusion.
Wendy looked helplessly at Presley, who was sitting at the head of the table. “Grandpa Presley…”
But before Presley could say anything, Elizabeth jumped in. “You should go pay respects to our
ancestors at the cemetery with Damon and Chloe.”
These words effectively shut Presley up. Assuming he wanted to argue for Wendy, that would mean he
didn’t care about this. But if he didn’t care about it, how would he explain to their ancestors if anything
unexpected happened at the engagement ceremony?
Presley closed his mouth tightly and gave a deep nod of agreement. The hope on Wendy’s face was
completely shattered. Under the table, Grace discreetly kicked her. When Wendy glanced at her, Grace
signaled her to keep eating. After a moment of hesitation, she picked up her fork and knife again.
The next day.
Elizabeth took Rose and the others to the hospital for a prenatal checkup.
Since she had made
appointment in advance, they were able to start the checkup immediately upon arrival. The baby was
healthy, as was Rose.
Rose was in high spirits. When they left the hospital, she even received praise from the doctor. “Mood
is incredibly important when you’re pregnant. In recent years, there’s been an increase in not only
postpartum depression, but also prenatal depression. Many expectant moms don’t catch it early
enough and end up losing their babies! So I’m pleased to see you’re in such a good state. Keep it up
“I used to hope that my daughter would get married and have kids by a certain age, but I’ve come to
realize in the past few years that women shouldn’t just get married to complete a task. Most of the
moms who lost their babies were… And where’s your husband? Why didn’t you bring him along for the
checkup? It’s best if the two of you come together… And let the baby’s dad also watch as the baby
grows… Watch your diet and exercise properly…”
The doctor who conducted the
mindful of, so it didn’t come off
was clearly of an older age and loved chatting with people. But she was talking about things pregnant
women needed to be nagging.
Many people having a prenatal checkup were having a baby for the first time and didn’t have any
experience, so more advice from the doctor was always welcome. “Thanks, we’ll keep that in mind!”
Chloe cut the doctor off. Even though the doctor meant well, she didn’t want her to continue talking.
Rose’s smile stiffened a bit.
Chloe had started paying attention to Rose ever since the doctor mentioned prenatal depression. From
that moment on, there were subtle changes in Rose’s complexion. By the time the doctor mentioned
having her husband accompany her for checkups and watch their child grow, Rose’s face and lips
started to tremble slightly, and Chloe couldn’t help but feel for her.
She knew Rose too well. She was strong enough that n
one in the world could harm her. But in her love life, anyone could easily hurt her. She married the man
she loved, but he couldn’t accompany her for checkups or watch their child grow.
This was a regret that could never be made up for. It was deeply saddening.
Yulia didn’t know what had happened, but she could sense something was off with Rose and Chloe.
While shopping, Elizabeth was busy picking toys for Anya. But Chloe pulled Rose aside, her face
unusually serious. “Can you stay here a bit longer?”
She couldn’t imagine how Rose managed to keep up her spirits in that cold marital bedroom. How did
she force herself to be carefree and create a lonely yet happy atmosphere?
Rose walked silently in front, watching Elizabeth spoil Anya, with a hint of a vague smile on her lips.
She took out her phone, started recording a video, capturing Anya’s happy moments and the entire toy
store in the background.
Most of the toys captured in the video were the ones boys would like, such as toy cars, remote control
airplanes, Transformers, etc.
“Out of all these toys, which one do you think is the best?” After saying this, she stopped recording.
She sent out the video.
Elizabeth bought too many toys for Anya, and Yulia had to return some of them in the end.
After spending over half an hour in the toy store, Rose’s phone didn’t ring. Then they went to a
maternity and infant store. Elizabeth immediately found a salesperson and bought a bunch of stuff.
Rose took a seat when she got tired, and before she knew it, it was already noon. When they were
seated in the restaurant, Rose looked at the blank conversation box with Morrison on her phone. Apart
from the video she had just sent out, there was nothing else. She didn’t receive any response.
She glanced at the time. It was already 12:30 p.m., and their lunch was a bit late.
Was his lunch also late? Was he so busy with work that he didn’t even have time to reply with a word?
Even a single word would do.
She took a deep breath, turning her head to Chloe. “Your future son–in–law is hungry, order him
something quick!”
Chloe looked at her, but Rose leaned against her shoulder, her eyes fixated on the menu. “I want this,
this, and this…”
Her voice sounded carefree and happy, as if eating was the happiest thing in the world for her. “This
one’s not bad either, and this one, and this one…”
She ordered quite a few dishes, enough to feed five people. The waiter at the side felt something was
off. While jotting down the orders, he kept glancing at Chloe. “Are you sure… you want all these?”
Chloe turned to Rose, asking, “Do you want anything else?”
The waiter was stunned. Did she still want to order more? Almost every dish on their menu had been
ordered.
“No, that’s all.” Chloe nodded at the waiter, confirming, “Just these.”
“…Alright.”
Chloe tried her best to satisfy Rose’s demands. If Morrison wasn’t spoiling Rose, then she would do it!
She could totally do it!
But when she saw the table filled with dishes, Chloe’s eyelids couldn’t help but twitch.

Chapter 1223
Seemed like… Spoiling a woman also required skill! There was too much food!
Chloe had to make sure Rose didn’t overeat.
“The food in P City is the best!”
Chloe casually said, “Then why don’t you stick around a bit longer? I’ll take you to try all the delicious
food you’ve ever had and haven’t had.“
