Chapter 909

Be Prepared

It was evident to her that leaving Kevin downstairs was hardly fair.

Not even five minutes had passed since Sean had been reciting when the soft sound of Abigail’s breath filled the air. With utmost care, he rose from his seat and planted a tender kiss on her cheek before silently slipping out of the room.

Back on the first floor, Sean’s perplexed gaze fell upon Kevin. “I’m afraid I must abstain from joining you for drinks. After all, she’s carrying our child. It wouldn’t be wise to indulge in alcohol.”

Kevin, his bewilderment mirrored by Sean’s, retorted, “Do you lack basic common sense? You shouldn’t be drinking even before she conceives.”

Sean was unfazed by Kevin’s skepticism and quipped, “What if she desires a second child? Preparation is key.”

Momentarily rendered speechless, Kevin struggled to formulate a coherent response. “You truly are something else,” he managed to articulate finally.

Turning his attention to the coffee table, Sean retrieved a selection of dried meat and arranged it meticulously on a decorative fruit platter. He also opened some peanuts and put them beside it, then asked the maid to bring over a fork and knife.
