Chapter 878 Did I Wake You Up?
Ash didn't answer the phone until the second night. As soon as he picked up, he heard Douglas's speechless voice, "If you don't pick up the phone soon, I'll start to suspect that something has happened." After all, he had just beaten Joshua from the Howe family and they might want revenge.
"What's wrong?" Ash asked.
Douglas usually wouldn't call him so many times. When he answered just now, Ash saw that there were more than thirty calls missed. This was not like Douglas's style at all.
Ash didn't think anything would happen but this abnormal situation made him unconsciously think a little bit more about it. Unexpectedly, Douglas said to him, "There is nothing special going on except for one thing - you're going to be an uncle."
Just by listening to his voice alone, Ash could tell how happy Douglas was. At this moment, Ash wasn't fully awake yet and hadn't figured out what being an uncle meant when Douglas told him about it.
For a while, Ash reacted and understood that Douglas came to show off towards him. "Congratulations," said Ash.
Upgrading his status naturally made him happy but besides that, there were some things that left Ash speechless - Douglas must have been planning something with this news of becoming an uncle.
Sure enough, after receiving congratulations from Ash, Douglas said, "As an uncle, your responsibilities are not small."
Ash was speechless.
This little guy hadn't even been born yet and his unreliable father was already thinking about how to exploit his position as an uncle? This gave Ash a headache.
Douglas continued speaking, "Of course gifts are essential! Seeing as you haven't married yet, I won't be too demanding and make you empty your pockets, but how much sincerity you show depends on where you put me in your heart."
Ash hung up directly without saying anything else. He didn't want anything to do with this big brother of his right now!
The next second, the phone rang again. Although Ash did not want to answer it, at the same time he knew if he did not pick up, then it would only give Douglass another reason for teasing him later on, which will only get worse over time due Douglass's personality traits.
So reluctantly, Ash picked up the phone again.
Douglas was not unhappy because Ash hung up the phone. On the contrary, he seemed to have seized the opportunity, and said to Ash, "Look at you, you have such a big temper. It's not good. You're gonna be an uncle and you must be prudent in the future. Don't affect your nephew or niece."
Finally, Ash said, "Let's wait until my nephew or niece is born."
Douglas stopped making trouble with Ash. This time, Ash hung up the phone, but he didn't call again.
Ash pinched the space between his brows speechlessly.
What was going on here?
How came they were all pregnant together?
He'd never seen them so active before.
The girl beside him moved. Ash looked down and saw Mikayla open her eyes.
The corners of her eyes were still red, and she looked at him pitifully, as if she had been bullied miserably.
Ash kissed Mikayla's forehead and asked softly, "Did it wake you up?"
Mikayla shook her head and said, "I'm thirsty and want to drink water."
Her voice was hoarse, and she looked even more pitiful when she spoke.
