Chapter 1203

However, Marcus halted her.

“No, if you end up pregnant, I believe you should keep it. After all, you’re fond of raising a dog. So, let’s

consider having a baby.”

A baby? The idea struck Millie, leaving her momentarily stunned. She didn’t feel prepared for such a

monumental decision.

Marcus gently caressed her silky hair, playfully adopting a stern tone.

“What’s this? You don’t want to have a baby with me?”

Millie playfully bit his shoulder and countered, “I never said that.”

“Then why the hesitation? Ouch, you bit my shoulder and that hurts.

No wonder you have a soft spot for dogs.”

Annoyed, Millie rolled her eyes and responded, “Please don’t compare me to an animal.”

The comparison to a pig or dog didn’t sit well with her.

Marcus lifted her chin, his breath grazing her delicate skin.

“Honey, just answer me this. When I suggested you keep the baby if you became pregnant, why didn’t

you respond?”

Millie gently slipped from his hold, burying her head in his sturdy chest.

“Because I’m terrified of pain. Giving birth is supposed to be excruciatingly painful.”

Her voice trembled with fear. The tales of agonizing childbirth and even fatalities during difficult labor

weighed heavily on her mind.

Seeing Rylie’s pregnant belly ignited a sense of anticipation for the arrival of a baby, yet it was

intertwined with a fervent hope for Rylie’s smooth delivery.

Moreover, Celeste had yet to fully accept her. A union without parental approval came with its own set

of challenges.

Her aspiration was to conceive when she was wholeheartedly accepted by Celeste. At that juncture,

the birth of their child would be met with even more love and support.

A sigh escaped Marcus’ lips as he once again grasped the truth.

Pregnancy was no simple matter.

“Alright, I’ll heed your words. No need to worry.”

“You will?” Millie’s surprise was palpable as she raised her chin, casting a perplexed gaze at him.

“Yes, since you fear the pain, I won’t push you. I don’t want you to suffer. You can rely on

contraceptives.”

Sitting up, Marcus prepared to retrieve the contraceptives.
