Dear Sweetheart novel

“Hooray!” Carl cheered. He quickly took a shower and changed into a fresh set of clothes.

Rayna was worried some shops would not allow dogs to enter, so she decided to leave Lucky at home.

Soon, Carl and Rayna left the house. As they stood in the elevator, Carl realized her stomach was bulging underneath her shirt. “Ms. Rayna, your stomach looks bigger than before. Are you giving birth soon?” he asked.

“Not so soon. I still have three more months to go.” Rayna caressed her belly.

Only then did she realize it had indeed gotten much bigger. Even the clothes she wore in the past could not conceal her bulging belly anymore.

However, she was still as slim as ever. All the nutrients she consumed were absorbed by the babies.

Rayna lowered her gaze and sighed without realizing it, wondering how Jessica and the baby were doing.

“Stop sighing already, Ms. Rayna. You’ll affect my wife’s appearance. Everyone says babies will be born ugly if the mother’s too depressed,” said Carl seriously.

Rayna side-eyed him. “Exactly how good-looking do you think you are? How dare you be picky?”

“No, no. I’m not being picky. I’m just reminding you to be careful. When you go into labor, I’ll definitely stay by your side and watch my wife come into the world.” Carl grinned while touching her belly.

He sighed and continued enviously, “You’re so lucky to be bearing triplets, Ms. Rayna. How I wish my mommy were as lucky as you. It’s so boring being the only child at home. When Mommy and Daddy are back after finishing their work abroad, I’ll make sure to not pester Mommy. I’ll let them hang out more often so that I’ll finally get some younger siblings.” Carl had already come up with a plan.

His heartwarming wish filled Rayna’s heart with anguish.

However, she had no choice but to suppress those feelings and pat his head with a subtle smile. “They’re really busy with their work, but they never stopped thinking of or loving you.”

Carl thought about it and muttered with a frown, “I can also accept it if they bring back a little sister they gave birth to over there.”

“All right. Let’s stop thinking about that. What do you want to eat later?” Rayna changed the topic, smiling.

“Let’s have pasta. I want lots of grilled chicken, too!”

Carl still remembered how Curtis had played favoritism back then by not giving him a single piece of grilled chicken.
