Chapter 1174 I'm Pregnant

'I can have him wrapped around my little finger? And I'll be able to do whatever I want? Is that even possible?' Erica wondered suspiciously. Nonetheless, she nodded eagerly. "Of course I want to!" Matthew tightened his arms around her waist. As he stared at her red lips, his Adam's apple bobbed in his throat. "Mrs. Huo, if you give birth to a baby for me, I'll make you the most powerful person in Y City in everyone's eyes, even mine. What do you think?"

"Well..." Erica trailed off thoughtfully. After a moment of hesitation, she said, "But I don't want to have a baby now." The truth was, she was afraid of death.

Tessie had died while giving birth to Ethan. What if Erica met the same fate as her? Who would inherit her billions of wealth if she died?

"It doesn't matter if you don't want to have a baby right now. I won't force you. But...we can start practicing for it."

Erica, of course, knew what he meant by "practicing." She shifted uncomfortably on his lap like she was sitting on pins and needles. "No, no, no. I just want to take pictures of you!"

Matthew wasn't in a hurry. He just played with her hand and said, "Think it over, Mrs. Huo. If you become the most powerful person in my eyes, you can not only take photos of me with clothes on, but also with them off. You can make me your nude model."

Erica stared at him with her mouth agape. 'Mr. Huo, can't you be more reserved?' she thought to herself.

It was not until then that she realized how badly he wanted to sleep with her. However, she was really not ready for it now. She pinched his cheek in mock-anger and said, "Matthew Huo, you just want to trick me into having your baby!"

Her mother had already been nagging at her to have a baby recently, and now, this man was also doing the same. There was no way she would fall into their trap!

Matthew shook his head. "How can you say I'm tricking you? Isn't it normal for a woman to have her husband's baby?"

"It's normal, but..." Erica didn't know how to explain the uneasiness she felt in her heart even after pondering it over for a while.

'Forget it.

I don't want to think about this anymore!' she thought and finally decided to change the topic. Out loud, she said, "Forget it. I won't take pictures of you anymore. Have you finished your work? Make macarons for me once you do!"

Matthew felt helpless all of a sudden. As far as he knew, Erica was usually a little naive and stupid. Why was she being so wary this time?
