Rebirth Into My Second Chance

Chapter 198

Max held me close, his chin resting on my shoulder. For some reason, I felt his vulnerability and didn't resist.

"Let's forget the blood test and head back," I coaxed him like one would soothe a child.

I thought, 'They say men become boys in front of the women they love. Is Max the same?'

Max announced, "From today, we're staying with the Hilton family."

"Aren't the Hiltons just a bunch of old geezers out to get me and the baby?" Thinking of the stubborn old guards at the Hilton family made me shake my head. Safety came first. "Those old fogies don't get to stay in Hilton Mansion," Max smirked, aiming for another hug, which I playfully pushed away. "It's inappropriate. What would people think?" Richard proposed, "Registering our marriage would make it respectable. Would I have that honor?"

A gust of wind swept through, tousling my hair and stirring my emotions. Max chuckled and helped tuck the disheveled strands behind my ear.

In my past life, Claude wouldn't marry me, even if it meant divorce. In this life, Claude would rather have me as the other woman than make me his wife.
