Chapter 173

"Are you sure you're fine?" Natalie looked at her with suspicion. "Don't you feel like you're not married? When something happens, he's not even by your side."

Elara smiled. "What's wrong? Even though he's not here with me he helps me handle a lot of things."

Sometimes, when the pressure built up and she wanted to see Lysander, it did make her a little sad that he was not by her side.

But she had already prepared for this before marrying him.

His identity was special, and it wasn't possible for him to always be by her side like other people.

Seeing Elara still smiling, Natalie said, "If you said so. My dad has been trying to set me up recently, even looking for a soldier for me. I don't want that! I don't want to live like you like I'm widowed every day." Elara laughed at Natalie's teasing. "My uncle probably isn't having it easy! The last time he came to my house and had dinner with my dad, he even mentioned you!"

She added, "He was worried you'd never get married and that you'd have no one to look after you in the future."

"I told him I'm doing fine but he's so worried about me." Natalie sighed. "Why do they always think women who don't get married aren't happy? I'm living well. Why do I need a man to make me suffer?" Elara said, "Maybe he wants a grandson!"

Natalie sneered. "Having kids? Impossible! Let me tell you, I have a friend who was good-looking before! Ever since she had a kid, she gained 50 pounds and looks so tired. I don't want that.."

Elara continued eating, listening to Natalie complain. Since both of them were quite busy, they didn't get to meet often.

Today was special because it was to celebrate Elara's confirmation at work, and Natalie specifically arranged this outing for her.

Natalie looked at Elara. "When do you and Lysander plan to have kids?"

Elara replied, "Isn't it a bit too early? You just said having kids was bad! Now you're already urging me to have them?"

Natalie asked, "You've been married for a while now. Doesn't his family pressure you?""

Elara said, "They don't have the time for that. His dad only sees him a few times a year. His aunt also doesn't interfere with his matters."

Speaking of this, Elara thought of Aubrey's mother. She wondered how she was doing.

Feeling a bit worried, after finishing dinner with Natalie, Elara decided to give Felicity a call.
