Chapter 314

Xylia didn’t wake up until late the next morning.

Last night had been pretty intense.

Joshua switched moods so fast.

He had been so happy when she said she wanted a daughter, but he hadn’t stopped changing condoms.

After they were both exhausted, he whispered in her ear,

“If it’s possible, let’s never have kids. I just can’t stand to see you suffer again,” Joshua whispered softly in her

ear.

Xylia sat at the head of the bed, her cheeks flushed as she thought about Joshua’s tender words the night before.

He always put her first. He protected her from everything.

Joshua didn’t want kids–he worried about her health, and he was afraid she might be traumatized by what had happened with Sonny.

But in reality, the one most affected by all of this was always Joshua.

Xylia accepted the idea of marrying Joshua and having kids–she didn’t feel special happiness about it, just saw it as part of life.

But whenever she thought of that sweet, chubby–faced kid in the album, her longing for a daughter flared up again.

Suddenly, her smile stiffened.

She hurried to open her nightstand and searched through the album for that photo.

Thankfully, it was still there–Joshua hadn’t gone and made it disappear.

Xylia got herself together and headed downstairs.

Joshua was nowhere to be seen.

She vaguely remembered him mentioning last night that he had an important meeting today.

Xylia sent him a quick message just to check in, but he didn’t reply right away–he was probably still busy.

Noelle was gone too.

She sat in the dining room, her gaze drifting over the quiet villa. It felt like there were fewer staff than usual.

‘Where’s Mrs. Wright?‘ Xylia thought to herself.

‘Maybe she’s busy outside,’ she guessed.

She was starting to get bored.
