Chapter 4553
Those couples didn’t get a prediction from the master, yet they still considered having a third child. But what if it was another boy? That would really put them in a tough spot.
Trying to shift the topic and dodge his grandmother’s marriage talk, River smiled and said, “Then Grandma, why don’t you urge my brothers to have a second child? They’re not getting any younger. If they wait too long, it’ll be even harder on my sisters-in-law. Pregnancy and childbirth are so much easier in your twenties than in your thirties.”
“Your grandma keeps urging me, but I can’t pressure her the same way. I already have a few great-grandkids, including a precious great-granddaughter. I told your brothers to try for another, but they just go silent. So, instead, I’ll push you three to get married. If something happens with you and Romina, I’ll start working on your eighth and ninth brothers. Rowan hasn’t been back in a while. Does he really think he can dodge me by staying away?”
Rowan was still in Wiltspoon, but he always claimed that since River and Alex weren’t married yet, and he was the youngest, there was no reason for him to rush. He was still in his twenties. Most of his older brothers hadn’t married until around thirty, so he figured he still had time.
River laughed. “Exactly, Grandma. Go ahead and start nudging Eighth and Ninth. Rowan might be young, but time flies. Before you know it, years have passed.”
The old lady replied, “Do you think I need a reminder? You just be nicer to that Lafond girl. Stop stealing her business—it might mess up your chances with her. I really want to meet her in person.”
