However, the news of her being unable to conceive still came as a huge blow to her. What’s going to become of Juniper, then?
Once she got home, Pierre could tell that she was bothered by something just by the look on her face. But she had to conceal her emotions in front of her children, so Pierre didn’t get a chance to talk to her about it then. That was the thing about having children around—they always had to control themselves and contain their emotions. Pierre finally brought the question up once the children were asleep. “Did you get your body checkup report?” he asked when they got into their room.
“It’s out.” Selena gave him a faint smile. “Everything’s fine. Today was a tiring day; let’s go to bed.”
He grabbed onto her hand as he could tell that she was hiding something from him. “Spit it out. If you really want to hide something from me, you should work on your acting skills to make sure that I don’t realize anything at all. The moment I realize something, I’m not going to let you go so easily anymore!” He gave her a light smack on her bottom as he spoke.
“I’m really fine. I’ve just been too busy recently.” She didn’t want to tell him about the news.
If she couldn’t conceive a child, then someone else would have to be Juniper’s donor. Joaquin and Jameson were way too young—Selena and Pierre would never allow children their age to undergo such a procedure. If Selena couldn’t do it, then Pierre was their only option. However, due to Pierre’s identity, he would have to give up on everything he had now if he wanted to become Juniper’s donor. His job required him to be in his peak physical condition at all times, and that would no longer be possible after he completed the procedure. Selena didn’t want to make things hard for him.
Right then, Pierre pressed his palms against Selena’s cheeks. “Didn’t we agree that we would deal with everything together? Tell me what’s bothering you.”
