After Death, Love Unveiled

Chapter 255

Lysander sat in the study, his expression more serious than ever

Then, his phone rang.

He looked at the flashing screen, picked up the phone, and answered, "What is it?"

Crispin was excited on the other end of the line. "Congratulations, Lysander! I'm going to be a dad!"

Lysander's voice was cold as he replied, "Are you crazy?" He was about to hang up.

Crispin quickly corrected himself. "Wait, don't hang up! Sorry, I misspoke! It's not me, it's you! You're going to be a dad!"

"I don't care about your son." Lysander's voice remained icy, clearly upset. He didn't really listen to Crispin.

Crispin replied, "What? Can't you understand me? I mean your wife is pregnant! You knew about this, right?"

Lysander was stunned.

Crispin added, "I also heard from Natalie just now! She said that Elara is pregnant! Is it possible that the person she told you is not another man?"

Downstairs, Elara was sitting with Ursa, who brought her a glass of milk.

As Elara drank the milk, she opened some gifts from the guests.

Ursa asked, "Have you told Mr. Kensington about this?"

Elara replied, "I'll go for the check-up tomorrow and tell my dad. Not yet!"

Ursa said, "That's fine. It's best not to tell anyone during the first three months." Elara nodded.

Ursa asked, "Should I ask Mr. Hawthorne to go with you tomorrow?"

Mentioning Lysander made Elara think of him again. He'd locked himself in the study as soon as he came back. She wasn't sure what was going on with him.

Elara said, "I'll ask him later! If he doesn't want to go, I'll just go by myself. I don't know what's wrong with him. He doesn't seem to like the idea of having a child."

Ursa said, "That can't be. He doesn't like children? He doesn't seem like the type to avoid responsibility!"

Elara sighed. "Who knows? After I told him about the baby, he locked himself away and hasn't come out since. Maybe he doesn't like kids? Lysander's never been one for socializing."

She continued, "He usually avoids getting too close to others, except me. Maybe it was too sudden for him to accept the idea of having a child Some people don't like kids. I used to think he did, though!"
