Rebirth Into My Second Chance

Chapter 294

I bought an engagement ring for Max, and when Max was showing it off, I found out that my previous miscarriage had left me with complications, and I might not be able to have children.

After Claude got out of the car, I didn't continue the conversation we'd been having. Instead, I leaned back and said, "I'm a bit tired."

He gently squeezed my fingers, "I know. You've handled it really well."

I lowered my eyes slightly. I had made my point pretty clear.

I was hinting at when we would officially announce our engagement.
