Chapter 364 Life is Governed by Fate

We sat in the quiet of the countryside, enjoying the calmness of the moment.

"Carter, once we find out who's behind all this, let's find a place in the mountains. We can go there for weekends and holidays; what do you think? "Sure."

"Then I can focus on trying to get pregnant. How many kids do you want? Do you prefer boys or girls?"

Carter was silent for a moment. "Either is fine."

I assumed he was just undecided about the gender, so I continued, playing with his fingers. "Honestly, it doesn't matter to me-boy or girl. The most important thing is raising them well, so they don't go down the wrong path." "Alright."",

"If it's a boy, I hope he's like you. You have such good genes; he'll definitely be handsome. If it's a girl, I want her to be like me, and I'll spoil her like a princess.

Just imagining that made me feel so happy.

"Carter, you're wonderful to me. With kids, you'll definitely spoil them, right?"

I wasn't sure if it was my imagination, but I felt like he was being unusually quiet about this.

"Carter?"

I turned to look at him seriously, only to find he was staring at the fireflies, lost in thought.

He didn't often space out like this. Noticing my gaze, he turned to look at me.

"Sorry, Chloe, what did you say just now?"

I reached out and gently brushed his nose. "What are you thinking about?*

He pulled me close and said, "Besides thinking about you, who else could I be thinking about? It's getting late, and we've had a busy day. Let's get some rest." "Alright." I reached up. "Hug me."

He leaned down, scooping me into his arms, letting me wrap my arms around his neck as we slowly made our way back the way we came.

"Carter, just keep holding me like this forever. When we're old, we'll still walk along the beach hand in hand, leaning
