Ellison laughs lightly on the side. Then Kelly immediately glares at him.
Marcie smiles and hugs Kelly, "Aunt Kelly, let's go eat."
After saying that, she turns her head to look at Ellison and adds, "According to Uncle, we should wait for you to have a meal together. Otherwise, after we are done with the meal, there won’t be anything left for you."
At that, Kelly looks at Ellison reproachfully as she complains, "How can you do this? Marcie is growing up. Regarding her three meals a day, it should be done on a regular schedule. What if you starve her?"
As she says, she picks Marcie up and walks towards the dining room.
Marcie is six or seven years old this year, looking a little taller than the ordinary girls. And naturally, her weight is not much lighter.
Kelly used to hold her in her arms without feeling anything about her weight. However, this time it is probably because that Marcie has grown up a little more that Kelly is holding her in her arms with some difficulty this time.
Seeing this, Ellison, who is following behind them, steps forward, takes Marcie in Kelly’s arms over, holds Marcie in his arms with ease, walking by the side of Kelly.
Kelly turns her head to look at her husband beside her.
And she sees his perfect side face with charming contours.
Moreover, she sees his handsome face and the profound look in his eyes… In her opinion, any woman being stared at by him with such a concentrated gaze surely won’t be able to hold themselves back. And their hearts surely will beat faster and more violently.
They have been married for several years. Even so, when Kelly is seriously gazing at him, the long-lost feeling of heart-thumping is still with her.
The fact that she was able to marry Ellison may be a blessing that she has cultivated in several previous lifetimes.
When Ellison notices her gaze, he turns his head to look at her.
She doesn’t conceal the love and admiration in her gaze in the slightest. Instead, she nakedly shows her love and admiration for him in front of him.
It is like when he first got together with her.
Ellison slightly hooks up the corner of his thin lips, revealing a charming arc. Then he jolts Marcie in his arms, "Marcie, do you want a little brother or a little sister?"
Hearing his words, Marcie, who is looking at the dining table not far away, puts away her gaze and looks at Ellison naively, “However, Mommy has a baby sister in her belly!”
At the thought of her little sister in her mommy’s belly and that she is going to be a sister, Marcie has a sense of pride.
Walking to the dining table and sitting down, Ellison reaches out and pinches her sort of fleshy cheek, “Marcie, do you want a baby brother or baby sister delivered by your Aunt Kelly?”
Marcie sniffs and indeed ponders on it carefully before saying, "Then I want Auntie Kelly to have a baby sister!"
When her mother was pregnant with her little sister, she was asked if she wanted a little brother or a little sister as well.
She replied directly without ever deliberation, “Mommy surely will deliver a little sister!”
For Marcie, she prefers a little sister who can take care of her Barbie dolls over a little brother who can't.
Some of her classmates have little brothers and sisters. And according to the girls, it is not good at all to have little brothers because the little brothers can't take care of their Barbie dolls and play house with them.
But the boys are saying that the little sisters won’t be interested in Transformers and robots and have fun with themselves, which they think isn’t good at all!
Marcie ponders on it, thinking that it will be better for her, a girl, to have a little sister.
So when Sunny asked her if she wanted a little brother or a little sister, Marcie said that she wanted a little sister without any deliberation.
Marcie has no idea about how cute she looks when she is lost in her thoughts while tilting her head. Looking at Marcie, Kelly almost can’t hold herself back, intending to kiss her.
But Ellison's words make her restrain herself hard. And even her little face is blushed.
“What does he... mean?”
“Is he going to have a little baby with… me?”
Thinking of this, Kelly feels that her little face can’t be more blushed.
Ellison laughs, rubs Marcie's head, and then brings a glass of milk to her.
After taking the milk over, Marcie tilts her head and looks at Ellison with an innocent look on her face, "Uncle, will Auntie Kelly have a little sister?"
"I am so bored staying at home alone every day. No one can have fun with me at all!"
She skims her lips and looks at Ellison pitifully.
Her big eyes are instantly filled with tears as if she would instantly burst out crying if Ellison said something to discourage her.
But Ellison nods as she expected, "But Marcie has to talk to your Auntie Kelly."
He patiently coaxes Marcie without any sense of guilt of tricking the children.
At that, Marcie immediately turns her attention to Kelly beside her, "Auntie Kelly!"
She takes a sip of milk and puts the cup on the table in front of her. Then, she clutches the hem of Kelly's clothes with her little hand, pouting her mouth pitifully and coquettishly.
Kelly helplessly holds her forehead, glares at Ellison who easily diverted Marcie's attention to her, and then strokes Marcie's head.
The little one still has a white milk stain around her mouth. And she is staring at her with an expectant look in her eyes, which are perfectly the same as Sunny's large phoenix eyes.
Kelly has the illusion that if she refuses her, she will become an unforgivable b**tard.
The fact that Marcie sees that Kelly is hesitant to answer her question means that she is rejecting her in another way. So she is inevitably a little sad.
Withdrawing her small hands, Marcie sits at the table in distress, picks up the bowl, and starts to have food.
Seeing that Marcie doesn’t pester her for an answer, Kelly inexplicably breathes a sigh of relief, thinking that she doesn’t bother with this matter anymore.
