Chapter 449: Chapter 449: When Will He Be Full? Chapter 449: Chapter 449: When Will He Be Full? “Abigail…”
“Mm.” Brandon Piers called her twice, and Abigail replied with difficulty.
“When will he be full?” Brandon asked in a hoarse voice.
Abigail’s neck turned pink, “It… it’ll take a while longer.”
“Mm.”
With Brandon’s response, the room fell silent again.
Normally, Abigail didn’t feel much when feeding the baby, but today it felt especially long, and the September weather in Swallow City was really stuffy and hot.
Abigail lifted her arm to fan her face, trying to cool down, but it was useless. Instead, it made her feel pretentious and awkward.
She tried to find a topic, but her mind was blank and she didn’t know what to say.
Fortunately, the man beside her finally spoke again, “How do you plan to spend your birthday next year?”
Abigail was stunned. Her birthday had just passed not long ago, right? Having a topic was better than none, but she still didn’t know what to say after thinking for a long ti, “I haven’t thought about it.”
“Then what gift do you want?” Brandon looked at Abigail and asked softly.
Abigail thought seriously for a long ti, “It seems like there’s nothing in particular that I want. How about you?”
“? Every year my grandfather hosts a birthday party. It’s been the sa for ten years, nothing special. Can’t you think of anything you want as a gift?” Brandon coaxed gently.
“Is a gift necessary for a birthday?” Abigail really felt she didn’t need anything. This year she had already made up for the gifts she hadn’t received before.
Brandon was a bit dissatisfied. “You’ll be twenty next year. We’ll get a marriage certificate to celebrate.”
Abigail’s mind buzzed, and she looked at the man in disbelief, “Are you sure?”
“Why wouldn’t I be sure?” Brandon looked at Abigail with a deep gaze.
Abigail felt uncomfortable under his gaze, “If you’re going to marry , you can’t regret it. No flirting or bringing in other won. You have to fulfill all husbandly duties and obligations, and be loyal to each other. Otherwise…”
“Otherwise what?” Brandon was curious about the little plump girl’s final warning tone.
“Otherwise I’ll send you back to Hades just like how I saved you from him.” Abigail wasn’t joking. Since she had already made up her mind, she didn’t have those previous ssy thoughts and directly threatened the man.
“So scary?” Brandon looked at his little plump girl’s serious expression and asked with a clear smile on his face.
He knew that when she started making demands, it ant she liked him.
This realization made Brandon happy. He couldn’t help but want to hug her, but unfortunately, there was an annoying little thing between them, keeping them apart.
“If you find it scary, you can choose to give up,” Abigail responded sullenly, thinking the man wasn’t willing.
It turned out she was self-conscious.
When not in love, he was just a beautiful man, a walking hormone, an ornantal species, unrelated to herself, not stirring her heart, no extravagant hopes. He was just him.
But once in love, confidence was shattered, feeling anxious, self-conscious, fearing gain and loss.
These small emotions started to tornt her.
Previously, she thought weight loss was a long-term plan, but at this mont, Abigail began to feel anxious and yearned for him while also fearing him.
Yearned because of love, feared because she was afraid he would look at her like others did, with either disgust or pity.
Abigail thought she was very mundane. In her past life, she couldn’t love and was gloomy. In this life, she was still inextricably bound by love and even began to feel self-conscious because of her imperfect body.
What an achievent.
Brandon was very close to Abigail, close enough to catch all her minute emotional changes. Finding her sullen appearance amusing and interesting, he reached out to poke Abigail’s cheek with his fingertip and sighed regretfully in a deep voice, “What’s scarier than lying on your fiancée’s bed at midnight with a chubby little boy between you two? If nothing, then I won’t give up.”
Abigail regretted her previous words, wanting to hear the man’s answer but fearing it at the sa ti. She never expected Brandon to say such words. She stared blankly for a mont, and her face began to blush gradually. She awkwardly retorted, “Show so decency.”
“My face is so handso, why shouldn’t I keep it? But seriously, is there really no birthday present you want from ?” Brandon shalessly said, then pursued the issue of a birthday present again.
Abigail was puzzled, “I haven’t made up my mind yet.”
“I have.” Brandon paused here, “In three months, it’ll be my birthday. Spend it with .”
“Huh?” Abigail didn’t understand, wasn’t he asking her what she wanted as a birthday gift?
“It’s settled then. Rember.” Brandon leaned forward slightly and kissed Abigail’s forehead gently.
Abigail looked up and t the man’s restrained gaze, thinking of his earlier words. Spending ti with him is the gift? What kind of gift is that?
But the next mont, facing Brandon’s deep amber eyes, she suddenly understood sothing, “You…”
“If it’s not possible, we can celebrate it early now.” Brandon regretted for the first ti why his birthday had to be in December.
Abigail’s mind buzzed. She finally confird that she hadn’t guessed wrong. In a daze, she looked at the man in front of her and, on impulse, nodded.
As soon as she nodded, Abigail realized what she had done and imdiately shook her head.
Brandon, seeing her nod and then shake her head, felt his blood boiling and looked at her with displeasure, “So, are you nodding or shaking your head?”
“Burp…”
Just as Abigail was deep in thought, Teddy burped after being full, then wiggled his small body and nestled into Abigail’s arms. Abigail, her face red, looked at her son, then at the man beside her, “I…Teddy is full. You should go to sleep early.”
“He’s holding you.” Brandon muttered softly.
Abigail thought she had misheard, looking at the man with confused bright black eyes, “Mm?”
“I want to hold you too.”
Abigail, “…”
Thump thump thump…
Abigail felt her heart beat irregularly again. Then, in the next mont, the man’s long arm reached over Teddy and wrapped around her back, pulling both her and Teddy into his embrace.
After a mont of daze, Abigail looked up at the man’s deep amber eyes, and saw him tiredly curl his lips, “Sleep. If we don’t, I really fear I’ll do sothing inappropriate under our son’s nose.”
“Mm.” Abigail responded with a red face, inwardly cursing, monster!
The family of three lay on the large bed. The warm light enveloped them in a thick sense of warmth.
The full and content little Teddy didn’t sense the lingering affection flowing between his parents. Sleeping between them for the first ti, he felt secure and stable.
But Abigail’s mind was filled with thoughts of the man’s birthday in three months.
Three months, it seed her fat-loss plan needed adjusting.
Just realizing what she was looking forward to made Abigail’s face heat up again, internally despising herself, what an achievent!
