Chapter 1301

Oliver couldn’t fall asleep.

He stood up, and walked to the balcony to smoke a cigarette. Smoke billowed around him.

He hadn’t smoked for a while, and suddenly found the smoking choking. His throat even started itching as he coughed a few times.

Oliver looked back at the woman lying on the bed in the room. He thought back to what happened on the bed just now.

The chemistry between them and the impact brought to the depths of the soul made him lift his hand and stub out the cigarette.

Ever since he saw Julian last time, he had been getting better at coaxing Fanny.

Fanny never brought up what she overheard from the conversation between him and Master Channing.

They seem to be ignoring the blurry past laden with hidden bombs.

That made Oliver mistakenly think that he had a peaceful, quiet, and respectful marriage.

Yet, today…

Fanny’s so-called acting destroyed his previous thinking.

Was her acting…really so good?

Oliver couldn’t hold himself back from calling Julian.

At that time, Julian and Diana had just finished their dinner.

They were supposed to take an evening stroll, which had become a habit. Because it was raining, they couldn’t head out to the yard. They were stuck in their house, chatting leisurely with each other. 1 Betty was playing with her toys on the floor. Diana was lying down on the couch, resting. Julian was doing work on his table.

It was still early.

The windows were open, and the house was filled with the coolness of the summer rain. Time seemed to have stopped at that moment.

It felt so peaceful, it made many envious.

When Oliver called, Julian’s ringtone sounded like an alarm, piercing through the quiet atmosphere.Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updates…

Julian subconsciously glanced at Diana before picking up his phone. He took the initiative to inform her, “It’s Oliver.”

Diana’s brows furrowed. She found it really strange. Since when did Julian get so close to Oliver?

Although she was curious, she didn’t stop Julian from answering the call. She even took Betty out of the room to make it convenient for Julian to talk.

“What’s the matter?” Julian asked bluntly, knowing that Oliver wouldn’t call for no reason.

“Nothing,” Oliver said, feeling a little embarrassed at the start.

He remained silent for a few moments before saying,” Cough, cough… How do women behave after they get pregnant…?”

Julian was pleasantly surprised. “Is Fanny pregnant? Good on you.”

Oliver was way faster than that blockhead Noel.

The last time they met, Oliver was sharing about how things weren’t going well with Fanny. Now, they were expecting a child.

Julian lamented about it and, upon hearing Oliver turn anxious, said, “Beg me.”

Oliver was stunned. “What did you say?”

“Beg me,” Julian said, the smile on his face widening. “We used to be rivals in love. I handed my son to you last time, and even helped you come up with an idea. We’re even.

“And now, you want to ask me a question.

“Shouldn’t you plead with me?”

Oliver choked on Julian’s words.

He used to be a doctor. By right, pregnancy issues shouldn’t baffle him. He was able to operate on a pregnant lady, so figuring out if a lady was pregnant was nothing to him.

Yet, after leaving the industry for so many years, he was beginning to doubt his own knowledge in the field. When faced with the likelihood of his own wife being pregnant, Oliver found himself unable to make a rational judgment. He could only ask someone else with experience.
