"God won't hear our wishes if we don't say them out!" Charlie took her finger down and kissed it twice. He then raised his eyebrows and said proudly, "Now God has heard my wishes. He will bless us with a daughter."
Wendy was stunned for a moment. This seemed to make sense...
Charlie caressed her belly and said in a deep and calm voice mixed with expectation for the future. "Probably at this time of the year two years later, except for my son, I will also have a daughter to blow out the candles with me!"
"Yes..." Wendy nodded in agreement.
Then, she raised her head and glanced at him. He had such a long-term plan. Their baby was now only of the size of a soybean, but Charlie was virtually planning for two years later!
Charlie kissed her eyes with his thin lips, which forced her to close her eyes. He said in a calm and stable voice, "You are pregnant now. You have to go to bed early! Now, close your eyes, and I'll keep an eye on you!"
In the end, Wendy fell asleep while being watched by Charlie.
Pregnant women tended to eat and sleep a lot. When Wendy woke up the next day, the curtains almost could not block the sunshine outside.
As soon as Wendy opened her eyes, Charlie's firm face broke into her sight line. Before she woke up completely, there was a kiss from him.
"Good morning.¹¹
After finished greating Wendy, Charlie lifted her pyjamas and lowered his head to kiss her belly. "Good morning, my daughter."
He said this in an exceptionally gentle way.
"..." Wendy blushed and was speechless.
Seeing that he was well-dressed, she asked, "Charlie, you didn't sleep all night, did you?"
"No, I did." Charlie shook his head. He had only slept for two hours.
He hugged her all night, either staring at her face in the darkness or staring at her flat lower abdomen. Although he could not jump up and down like a large monkey, he was still so excited that he did not feel sleepy at all. He had to force himself to sleep for two hours when the sky turned bright outside.
Wendy was almost lifted up from the bed by him. "Wash your face and rinse your mouth first, and then go downstairs to have breakfast. Aunt Lee has made everything ready!"
"Yes..." She nodded.
Watching Charlie walk out of the bedroom, Wendy lowered her head and turned on the tap.
In her sight, the towels and the washing milk had been properly placed, while even the toothbrush had been squeezed with toothpaste...
Wendy stayed there for a while and then began to wash her face and brush her teeth.
When she came out of the bedroom, she was instantly petrified after seeing what was in front of her. She swallowed her saliva and exclaimed in surprise, "Eh? The stairs...What's going on?"
Where did the carpet come from?
The solid wooden stairs that led to the first floor were now all covered with a thick layer of long-fur carpet. Everyone who stood on it would feel soft beneath his/her feet. There was no need for anyone to worry that he/she might slip and fell on the steps. Moreover, even the handrails were covered with soft furs.
"It was all ordered by Mr. Hoggs!" Aunt Lee came up to her with a smile. "Last night, he telephoned the carpet shop, and early this morning, the carpet was sent here. Application of the furs on the handrails had just been finished not long ago!"
"..." Wendy swallowed her saliva once again.

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
