Chapter 12

Colby had been an upright man all his life and would never tolerate

something like this. Even if Abigail wanted to have a child, Sean would have

to be a willing party as well.

Although Abigail was highly discomfited by Lina’s words, she only answered

obediently, “Okay.”

Colby couldn’t help but frown upon his wife’s actions. “The kids rarely come

home as it is. Don’t bring this up at every chance you’ve got.”

“Don’t deny it. You want a grandchild as badly as I do,” Lina snapped.

Nonetheless, he changed the topic. “Abigail, some rumors have been going

around outside recently. What do you think about them?”

“You should work harder and bear him a child. Then, he’ll come home

naturally,” Lina added. When Colby was about to lose his temper, she quickly

stopped herself from saying more. “Okay, I’ll stop. Stay here for the night. I’ve

prepared your favorite food for dinner.”

Abigail wanted to say something, but Lina had already risen to her feet and

paced into the kitchen happily.
