The CEO’s Regret My Ex-Wife is a Tech Goddess novel Chapter 241

Silas looked at her, a flicker of genuine heartache in his eyes.

"What about you?" Alaina asked. "Do you like kids?"

Silas gave a slight shrug, his expression entirely indifferent. "I wouldn't say I like them, but I don't dislike them either."

Alaina tilted her head to look at him. "For the record, I'm not acting as Aunt Rosemary's mouthpiece. I just think that logically speaking, you should have one."

"Why is that?" Silas asked.

She looked him up and down with an expression that said it was obvious. "From a genetic standpoint, it would be a real shame if someone who looks like you didn't leave behind an heir."

Pausing, a mischievous idea seemed to pop into her head. She covered her mouth and giggled, speaking without restraint. "Just like puppies and kittens—the ones with the best looks and temperaments are always burdened with stud duty."

Silas stared at her, his deep eyes narrowing with a flash of genuine exasperation. His usually composed demeanor faltered, and the gentle aura around him instantly cooled as he frowned.

"You are getting way too bold, Alaina."

Instead of dialing it back, she tilted her face up, her eyes curving into sweet crescents filled with a sparkling, starlit amusement.

Her brazen, triumphant smile was an open provocation, completely devoid of any intention to apologize.

Silas gazed down at her bright, cunning eyes. Seeing the unstoppable upward curve of her lips, the faint irritation in his chest was instantly replaced by a thick, overwhelming fondness.

A helpless, indulgent smile reached his eyes as one of his hands accurately and gently pinned her slender wrist.
