A Love Trap

No matter what Aaron said, Rae was still worried because they didn't have a son. According to her, Lesley should enjoy her life rather than taking on the business. Although Aaron had never mentioned it, she had made up her mind to get pregnant again and this time, hopefully, she would give birth to a boy who would take over the family business in the future.

"Aaron, let's try for another baby," Rae suggested.

Aaron watched her in astonishment. "Are you crazy? You are in bad health! Did you forget that?"

"That was several years ago. Now I have recovered. We can do this. Trust me."

They had been married for many years. Rae knew that Aaron was in love with her, and he had never complained about the fact that she only birthed a girl. But Rae was not satisfied. She wanted to have a baby boy, another symbol of their love.

Aaron knew that Rae was stubborn, so he gave up trying to dissuade her. He wanted a baby boy too.

"Let's go to the hospital tomorrow. If the doctor gives you the go-ahead, we can give it a thought."

Aaron and Rae went to visit Ethan the second day as they wanted to put Lesley's mind at ease.

Ethan and Arya were talking in the living room when the steward came in followed by Aaron and Rae.

Aaron laughed cheerfully. "Ethan! You won't feel bad about our uninvited visit, will you?"

Ethan stood up and walked over to Aaron with a smile. "Aaron, you know I won't. We are so happy to see you."

They were good friends in their youth, and the friendship between their families had spanned two or more generations. Unlike other families, they were closely acquainted. And it would please both sides if Andrew married Lesley.

Aaron and Ethan were chitchatting over the tea while Rae and Arya were talking jovially.

After a bit of conversation, Aaron wished to ask the question on his mind but stopped on second thoughts.
