Chapter 191

When Daphne arrived at Noblewood Retreat, it was just mealtime.

Watching Julie’s family of three in their happy bubble, she couldn’t help but feel overwhelming warm, as if she was even happier than Julie herself. Because of Julie’s poor health. Shannon made squid soup and all the dishes were nutrition-focused. Kieran was helping Julie serve the soup and Julie looked up and said, “If I keep eating like this, I’m gonna turn into a pig.”

“Kerry likes eating pork.” Ivan wiggled his utensils and innocently replied.

This was actually the first time Daphne had met this little guy. She’d always heard Julie talk about this clever and lively boy. Due to special circumstances yesterday, she only caught a glimpse of Ivan before he was taken away by Julien. Looking at him now, Daphne couldn’t help but exclaim, “Little guy, you’re super handsome!”

Hearing the compliment, Ivan replied without hesitation, “That’s definitely because my parents have good genes. You’re pretty too, Daphne. Find a handsome partner and you’ll have smart and cute kids.”

“My little cutie, how can I like you so much!” Saying this, Daphne bent down and planted a kiss on the boy’s face.

Although the little boy wiped his face with a slightly annoyed expression, he still kept a smile and said, “It might be because I’m handsome that you like me.”

“Your parents aren’t narcissists. Where did you learn to be so full of yourself?” Daphne couldn’t help but laugh at Ivan’s words, feeling extremely happy.

Julie chuckled and said, “Maybe it’s in his blood.”

Daphne looked at Julie and asked, “You mentioned on the phone that you had something to ask me?”

Julie’s tone on the phone had been very serious, which made Daphne worry all the way.

Upon mentioning this, Julie’s lips curved into a gentle smile, “I just wanted to ask, would you like to have a son?”

Hearing Julie’s words, Daphne quickly clutched her stomach, “No way! Don’t jinx me!”

When Julie asked this question, the first person that came to Daphne’s mind was Lionel.

Seeing Daphne’s somewhat exaggerated reaction, Julie squinted and looked at Daphne meaningfully, as if forcing her to admit what had happened between her and Lionel.
