Nathaniel’s palm could feel the warmth of Christina’s body through her knitted sweater. It was as if he could already touch his unborn child.
As the frosty look in his eyes melted away, a gentle air descended upon him. In spite of that, he remained firm in his rejection of her request.
“No, the doctor has instructed you to only consume nutritious food. You have to avoid anything that’s too spicy, cold, or strong.”
Unable to fulfill her desire, Christina broke into a frown. “Can I not just have a few mouthfuls?”
Nathaniel stood firm. “No.”
Finally, Christina replied in disappointment, “Fine.“
Unable to bear the sight of her being upset, Nathaniel coaxed her patiently, “Once our child has been born and your body has recovered, I’ll buy you anything you want.”
Even though Nathaniel had made similar promises countless times in their relationship, it still worked like a charm.
“You promised it. I’ll not let you forget what you said.” Christina gave him an earnest look.
“I’ll draft a contract the first thing we get home, Nathaniel answered affectionately.
A smile emerged on Christina’s face. “There’s no need to go that far. I still trust you enough to keep your word.
If Nathaniel doesn’t keep his promise, I’ll just satisfy my cravings behind his back.
Although Nathaniel could read her mind, he didn’t expose her thoughts upfront.
He was more inclined to express himself through his actions. For the subsequent period of her pregnancy, Christina’s diet became healthier and more disciplined under Nathaniel’s watchful eye.
Upon returning to Scenic Garden Manor, Christina went back to the bedroom to catch up on her sleep because she had gotten up earlier than usual.
