Chapter 424 Asking for a Second Child

Bard approached, "Is it really reasonable, Mom? Sophia already has a daughter."

"So what? She can still have a son."

'Have a son?'

It scared Drake a lot.

"Mom, my family doesn't strongly require me to have a son. Baby girls and boys are equally treated."

"Equally treated?" Laura glared at him.

Drake got nervous, "Mom, I'm not lying. You don't have to consider my grandpa. When we visited Bonnie the day before, he gave her the heirloom as a sign of recognition."

"Oh, is that true?"

Drake looked at Sophia, "You didn't tell Mom?"

"No. I thought I can tell her when we are here."

Laura patted Drake's arm, "You brat! I mean, in the Lawson family, a baby girl has a higher status than a boy does. But your family treats them the same. It's not okay!"

'So that is what it is.'

He had thought he did something wrong.

"Don't worry, Mom. I believe such a great tradition will germinate in the Riley family. From now on, a girl has a higher status than a boy does in the Riley family."

Laura smiled, "That's more like it."

Actually, Sophia could feel that a girl was cherished in the Riley family. Aria was a good example.

Drake finally got it, "So, what you meant is, if the amount of the dumplings left was odd, then it means we should have a boy, and if it was even, then we'll have a baby girl."

Bard gave him a thumbs-up.

Well, Drake had no idea of that.

"We..." He looked at Sophia, who simply ignored him. Drake turned to Laura and Abbott immediately, "Mom, Dad, it was excruciating to give birth. It's enough that Sophia has brought Bonnie to this world. We don't need to have another child."

"What? Of course it's painful. But you must know, it won't be that excruciating to have a second child."

"Plus, I must warn you, if Sophia is pregnant, she mustn't have an abortion. If I ever knew she did it, I would not spare you. If you don't want to raise another one, just send the kid over here."

Sophia turned to Laura, "Mom, that was your true intention, wasn't it?"

Seeing that Bonnie was about to leave them, she had no excuse to ask her to stay, so she came up with another idea. Classic.

Laura put on a poker face, "It's a warning. Who knows what you guys will do in order to enjoy your private moments?"

As there was more and more tension between Laura and Sophia, Drake came to Sophia and put his hand on her shoulder.

"Don't worry, Mom. If Sophia's really pregnant, she will never have an abortion. And when the kid is born, I'll send it to you."

A smile appeared on Laura's face immediately, "Thank god I have a great son-in-law."

Sophia turned her head and glared at him, "What are you talking about?"

"Don't worry, Sophia. I won't let Mom down. I'll work harder."

"It seems my son-in-law is more trustworthy than my daughter. You have all my support, Drake."

Laura said that with a smile the whole time. She was increasingly satisfied with her son-in-law.

When Laura was off to do some work, Sophia asked with anger, "We agreed not to have another child, didn't we?"

"It's our call whether to have another child. It won't hurt you to say something nice to your mother."

It seemed what he truly meant was she shouldn't go against her mom.

"I'm trying to discourage her from wanting another grandchild. What if I no longer want to have a baby and she gets so anxious that she starts pushing me?"

The corner of his mouth curved upward, "You are afraid of that?"
