Forbidden Heat R18 Chapter 536-540

Chapter 536: Reiner – Grilling Pressure
Around a weak later when King and Queen returned, they were back to nagging the two of us about the same thing. Right after our 2-year wedding anniversary, King and Queen began seriously pressuring Reiner and me to have children. With Reiner preparing to take over the business from King and me figuring out the whole orphanage business, having children was the furthest thing from our minds. Now that things have settled down somewhat, my in-laws were back to applying pressure on us.

King had always been outspoken in pushing for us to have children so that there would be at least an heir to inherit this business empire while Queen was a little more understanding. Now that Reiner had taken over the business and my orphanage work had settled down, it seemed like we had run out of excuses not to produce an heir.

Dinner with my in-laws quickly became something that I dreaded because I knew what they would talk to us about. It doesn’t matter how good their moods were or what topic the conversation started off with, in the end, the conversation would steer towards asking us when we would start trying to conceive a child. At first, I tried to laugh it off or offer some kind of excuse. However, as time went by, the extent of their demands became too much to simply ignore or take lightly.

“Knight, when are you planning to have children?” Queen asked from across the dining table.

Great. This conversation has started again. I glanced over at Reiner to gauge his reaction. Reiner stared back at his mother with a set jaw before his hand moved to pierce the steak on his plate with his fork. His parents watched him in silence along with me as Reiner began cutting his steak into a small piece before shoving it into his mouth and chewing on it.

Queen blinked rapidly a couple of times when it became evident that Reiner had decided to completely ignore her and her query. At that point, the tension was so high that I didn’t know what kind of face I should be making. Reiner was probably beyond sick of hearing the same question asked over and over again over dinner and I couldn’t blame him.

“You’ve taken over the company now, it’s time that you start trying to make a baby. I don’t mean think about it, I mean to actually work on it,” King stated firmly.
