My Husband Wants Me Dead (Esther and Bradley) novel Chapter 440

Chapter 440 

SSteffan gazed at Xara without a word, his emotions hidden. 

“The doctor suggested a treatment plan. If we choose conservative treatment, Jacob…” Xara paused, then hesitated, saying, “So… should we go for in vitro fertilization?” 

Steffan smirked, tauntingly responding, “Xara, let’s simplify it further. Just give me your genes, and you won’t need to worry about anything else, right?” 

“What do you mean, Steffan?” 

Suddenly, Xara grasped his meaning, her emotions igniting. “Are you saying you still want a physical relationship with me?” 

“Xara, you should know your place after five years.” Steffan rose, advancing toward Xara. He observed her tense figure and spoke condescendingly. “Once, you called me an animal. Now, I prefer being a man.” 

“Steffan, what are you trying to say?” 

Xara was confused. Could Steffan really be suggesting that? No, it seemed impossible. She couldn’t agree with his idea. 

However… were they really going to resort to in vivo fertilization? 

“Steffan, our only goal now is to save Jacob. Can you please not be so impulsive?” 

Steffan smirked and asked nonchalantly, “And?” 

“Is it not a good idea for us to undergo in vitro fertilization? It doesn’t inconvenience you at all. You just need to…’ 

” 

Xara was not mentally prepared to rekindle an intimate relationship with Steffan. 

“Need to what?” Steffan arched his brow. “Xara, you should understand that many women are willing to have a child with me.” 

Xara’s gaze dimmed, her heart raced, and she felt inexplicably uncomfortable. 

“Yes, yes, yes. You’re Steffan Sanderson. You can change women every day. But I only have Jacob as my son. I want him to live….” 

Steffan glanced at her coldly and said in a deep voice, “It’s you who’s pleading with me now, understand?” 

“Steffan, I beg you. Let’s go ahead with in vitro fertilization!” 

Steffan suddenly put a safe distance between them as soon as Xara said that. He strode briskly toward the study door. 

Gathering her courage from an unknown source, Xara hurried behind Steffan and tightly grasped his hand. 

“Steffan, don’t leave just yet. Let’s talk this out.” 

Steffan stood straight, his expression still cold. 

“You’re unwilling to accept in vitro fertilization? Is it because you find it embarrassing? I can 

help you…” 

Steffan turned slightly, asking mockingly, “Help me?”
