Chapter 1311

"I know that," Alexander said casually, not reacting much to it. "

Everyone in Kingsland knows about that. Secretary Rollins had spoiled his daughter too much. She’s overweight and has a weird temper. The other girls in the circle don’t really hang out with her."

Hence, he found it strange when he learned that Lily was in contact with Anastasia, and the latter had even gifted his wife something costly. However, Lily was different from the other women anyway.

"Spoiled her too much..." Lily repeated this phrase and sighed softly.

"You don’t think so?"

"Perhaps he loves her, but in the wrong way," Lily elaborated. Alexander could tell she had many emotions from her trip to Cameron's place. "What did you see?"

"It’s nothing. I just want to ask you something. What if Gale becomes as fat as Ms. Rollins in the future?

How would you treat him?" Lily asked while pointing to their son sitting in the baby chair.

Subconsciously, his gaze followed her finger’s direction. The little boy had no idea his parents imagined one of his future possibilities. He was working hard, learning to take in food by himself. With a fork in one hand, he tried to pick up the spaghetti on the plate before him.

Patter!

It fell back to the plate while some of the sauce splashed onto his face. Alexander had no words.

Galen inherited Alexander and Lily’s beautiful features, and he was an adorable kid. At times, Alexander would feel proud when he looked at Galen, and he felt that his son would undoubtedly grow up to be a man who was even more charming than he was.

Upon hearing the question from Lily, he could not help but imagine Galen with the kind of figure Anastasia had.

‘Uh...’

He stared at Galen’s innocent face, and at that time, Galen looked up to smile at him, revealing his two tiny teeth. All of a sudden, he felt sorry for his son. Even the thought of it scared him. Shaking his head, Alexander exclaimed, "No way!"

"Hey, I said what if," Lily said while helplessly caressing Galen’s head. She also felt it was an impossible scenario, but it was just a what-if question.

"There’s no what-if!" Alexander insisted. "There’s no way my son would lose control] to that point!"

"Do you think Secretary Rollins thought it was possible?" Lily asked again, "Could he have imagined that Anastasia would be so overweight when she was still an infant?"

Alexander had no words for a moment before he started, "No, it’s not like that." He raised his hand.

"Lily, we’re talking about someone else right now. Let’s not involve our son, all right?"

Although Galen would sometimes get jealous and fight for Lily’s attention with Alexander or rile Alexander up on purpose, he was still Alexander’s son. There was no way Alexander could bring himself to imagine his son as a fat man. Even the thought of it made Alexander feel guilty.

They could not continue with the conversation on this topic. Lily sipped her red wine and continued, "I just want to say that Secretary Rollins has a big role to play in how Anastasia turned out today. I’m not sure what you guys define as ‘spoiling her too much, ’ but I noticed that he controls her too much, and he’s losing control over that."

Then she recounted the cake incident earlier today. Alexander frowned and picked up a piece of steak to feed her. "According to what you told me, I don’t find anything wrong with it. Perhaps his tone was harsh, but his intentions were well. It's only right for an overweight person to control their diet. If he lets her be, it’l] only get worse."

"The problem lies with the fact that he has good intentions!" Lily opened her mouth, took a bite of the steak, and chewed it slowly. "

Everyone knows he does it for Anastasia’s benefit. That’s why they think there’s nothing wrong with it, just like what you said. Perhaps Anastasia sees nothing wrong with it too."

Alexander was puzzled. "Then what's the problem?"
