Chapter 162

The moment the topic of children came up, Peterson instantly regretted it. But the words were out of his mouth and he was clueless how to deal with it, so he just looked at Seraphina silently.

Seraphina’s face was calm. After a while, she let out a gentle laugh. “Before you said those words, I thought you didn’t give a damn”

Back then, Peterson was head over heels for her, pursuing her like a man possessed Seraphina, on the other hand, couldn’t care less about him, going out of her way to avoid him. Just when Peterson was on the verge of giving up, he stumbled upon Betty

After finding out about Betty, Peterson went MIA for a couple of days. When he showed up again, he pursued Seraphina even harder than before.

She was in her early twenties then, juggling her studies while taking care of Betty. Life was tough but Peterson came along.

He truly cherished Betty, being very patient and attentive, always finding ways to make her happy.

Betty was fond of him, but Peterson was only present in her short life for six months.

Half a year later, Betty passed away. Peterson then shifted all his attention to Seraphina, spoiling her as he did Betty.

So Seraphina thought, he really didn’t care.

But his nonchalant façade couldn’t hide his genuine concern for her.
