Pregnant and Favored: See You in the Morning, Young Master novel Chapter 2078

“…Sheesh, when did you get so corny, Mommy?”

“Right? But it’s pretty cute! I’m sure Daddy thinks so too!”

Despite Xavia’s words and the children’s teasing, Zivon’s gaze remained unchanged. Had this been a regular day, then he would’ve surely been tempted to carry her into bed already… However, his heart was now brimming with doubts, and after taking a deep breath, he gently said, “…Alright, settle down… Let’s enjoy breakfast.”

Watching as he began serving them porridge, Xavia couldn’t help but feel slightly disappointed by his response. Wasn’t he being a little cold…? Then again, the kids were around, so that was probably why he had toned down his response…

To her surprise, however, it was right after they got back from sending the kids off to their lessons when Zivon said in a serious tone, “…We need to talk.”

“…What about?” asked Xavia with a subtle frown.

Instead of answering, Zivon simply sat on a couch before gesturing for her to sit on the sofa opposite of him. Wasn’t he being a bit too formal…? In the end, she chose to sit right next to him instead, holding his arm as she added, “…Hubby, what are you mad about…?”

…So she was casually calling him that now? Feeling his gaze fall, Zivon ultimately replied, “…Tell me, do you know what kind of people get to be called ‘husband and wife’?”

“…People who are married…?”

“Technically correct, but you’re missing one part. People who love and are loyal to each other.”

Slightly irked by how understanding she was being, Zivon took a while to say, “…Fine, let’s move from that topic for now. Second question. Why did you suddenly postpone the honeymoon? You’re an outdoorsy person, aren’t you?”

…It was because her brother had prohibited her from leaving… That aside, why was he saying it like she didn’t like the idea of going on that trip with him?

“Hubby, you know I love the outdoors, but if I recall, you took countless tests before our marriage, and I figured that your body deserves more rest before we do more vigorous activities again… What’s more, the weather is still pretty cold now, and I really think that the spring weather will be more enjoyable for all of us…”

“Past new year, flowers will start to bloom everywhere, and maybe we’ll even get a chance to have a picnic under pink and white peach blossom trees… Add that to some peach blossom wine, and I’m sure that the event will be a truly unforgettable one…!”

Though the idea was wonderful, it was also extremely hurtful. After all, she knew deep down that there was a high chance that she wouldn’t be able to live that long to enjoy that trip with him…
