Who Knew My Assigned Mechanic Husband Was a Big Shot? novel Chapter 83

Because no one in the small group knew each other, an awkward silence hung over the table at first.

Fortunately, there was a child present.

It was the same little boy who had offered Sloane the lollipop earlier.

Terrified of a tantrum, his parents had packed an arsenal of educational toys and snacks, which the boy eagerly began distributing to the adults.

Sloane suspected he was just sick of his own snacks and wanted to get rid of them.

Regardless, the gesture broke the ice.

The pregnant wife leaned forward. "I heard taking care of a newborn is exhausting. Feeding them every two hours... is it really that bad?"

The boy's mother waved a hand dismissively. "Of course it's tiring, but it's totally different now. The GFA provides free maternity nurses and robot assistants. If you want to breastfeed, you just pump in advance. If you use formula, the nurse handles the night shifts. You don't have to lose any sleep at all."

"What brand of formula do you use?" the expectant wife asked eagerly.

"Domestic brands, exclusively. They're top tier now, and the GFA supplies them for free. You don't spend a dime. Even with a minimum-wage salary, you can afford to raise a kid here."

The pregnant woman nodded in awe. "..."

Great. The forum had instantly devolved into a mommy blog.

Sloane and Logan had absolutely nothing to contribute.

They resigned themselves to sitting quietly on the sidelines.

But the parents were clearly on a GFA-sponsored mission. After warming up the crowd, they turned their attention to Sloane and Macy. "Honestly, don't let the fear of pregnancy hold you back. I used to be terrified of the hassle too. But once the baby arrives, your life is filled with so much joy. Watching them smile and grow every day... it's the most fulfilling experience in the world."

Macy preened. "Oh, we aren't scared of having kids at all. We're actively trying."
