Richest Mogul

Chapter 1556

Because Natalie was pregnant, the plan to go out for karaoke with a few friends that night was canceled.

After dinner, Skylar accompanied Natalie for a walk along the river.

"I still feel like I'm a kid. But now... I'm already turning 30 and entering a new stage of life. I'm going to be a mother soon," Natalie said softly, her hand resting on her belly, a mix of joy and confusion on her face. Skylar sighed, "Time really does fly."

"Yeah, it feels like our youthful days were just yesterday. By the way, when are you and Joe planning to have a baby?" Natalie asked.

Skylar suddenly realized she hadn't shared some past details with Natalie. With a smile, she replied, "Maybe in two years. It's just not the right time yet."

Watching her friends become mothers one after another stirred something in her a quiet envy she couldn't ignore. But she knew she and Joe had to wait for the right moment.

In the past two years, her relationship with Joe had deepened. Sometimes, he would joke about how a child would come between them, stealing away her love and attention.

Though his words were playful, Skylar couldn't help but notice the flicker of discomfort in his eyes when the topic came up. Not long ago, during a visit to Steven's home, Joe had been utterly captivated by Steven's daughter, unable to tear his gaze away. Then there was Mona, who was due to give birth in a couple of months, and Minerva, who had recently welcomed a healthy, chubby baby boy into the world.
