Mission: From Divorcee to Millionaire novel Chapter 609

Selena's face, which had just stopped blushing, turned bright red all over again. Ava's unfiltered words had left her a bit flustered. While she hesitated, unsure of how to respond to her child's innocent curiosity, little Mateo didn't seem to need an answer. Instead, he leaned over to his mom's belly, made a tiny fist, and gently tapped.

"Sister, are you in there?" he asked with all the earnestness of a child.

Selena couldn't help but feel both amused and a little exasperated. Her son was certainly polite, she thought with a chuckle.

Wanting to tease him a bit, she stroked his little head and asked, "If Mommy really had a baby sister, would you like that?"

Some kids aren't too keen on having siblings, worried they might have to share the love and attention. She wasn't sure how Mateo felt about it. He'd always been a bit introverted and possessive.

To her surprise, Mateo didn't skip a beat, "Yes!" he exclaimed.

His answer caught Selena off guard. She pondered for a moment before asking, "And what if she was like Emily?"

Mateo's cheeks turned a shade pinker. Even though he didn't say anything, a mother always knows—he liked the idea. Selena had a lightbulb moment. Her son's personality was just like Everett's. He wasn't uninterested; he was just shy about it.

She playfully tapped his nose, teasing him further, "I knew you liked Emily. You didn't admit it before, but I've got you now!"
