The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

Chapter 2096

Justin's heart raced as he listened quietly.

"If my proposal goes well tonight, we'll register our marriage first thing tomorrow morning."

Asher, who was usually calm and composed, now spoke with a hint of giddiness. His voice slightly quivered as he tried to contain his joy. "With same-sex marriage being legal in Botvia, this is the perfect time for us to do it."

"Congratulations, Asher," Justin said, his voice deep with a touch of jealousy.

"I've been thinking about this for a while now, but I wasn't sure who I could talk to about it, not even Bella -it just didn't feel right."

Asher couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh. "After thinking it over, you were the only one I felt I could open up to."

"I feel so honored to be the first one you shared this good news with," Justin said. He smiled faintly and continued, "Asher, I genuinely wish you and Arnold a lifetime of happiness together."

"Thank you; we'll be happy. And I hope you and Bella will be too." Asher nudged him gently. "Even Ryan has settled down. When are you going to marry my sister, brother-in-law?"

Steven said reassuringly. "If you don't want to breastfeed, we'll just use formula milk. From now on, I'll take care of the diaper changes, bottle feeding, and putting the baby to sleep.

Steven gently stroked her dark hair, his heart aching. "I know the next several months will be tough on you as you carry our child. I'm saddened that I can't fully share the pain and difficulty with you. But when our baby is finally born, I'll make it up to you in every way I can.
