However, Theodore remained silent, swiftly changing the topic as if purposefully avoiding any discussion regarding their decision
about having children.
Lilyana heaved a sigh, her comprehension of the couple’s situation limited. Her suspicion regarding Ariana’s pregnancy
remained mere speculation, leaving her unable to express it directly. Instead, she could only offer subtle hints and reminders to
Theodore, unsure if he would grasp their significance.
