Chapter 721
“El, what’s the matter?” Sheena waved her hand in front of his eyes, smiling. “Are you nervous because it’s going to be your first time being a father?”
Elliot snapped back to reality, smoothly answering, “Yes, I’m just too excited.”
Gently, he arranged Sheena’s hair, crouched down to help her with her shoes, and then lifted her into
his arms.
“Let’s go home.”
The curious nurses peeked out, observing the affectionate couple in envy.
Sheena blushed and buried her face in Elliot’s neck.
“Eli, you don’t always have to spoil me like this. I can walk perfectly fine on my own,” Sheena protested.
With a slight smile, Elliot replied calmly, “Even the doctor said we need to be extra mindful because you’re having twins. Your morning sickness might get stronger in the future. I can’t stand by and let you suffer; I have to do something.”

“Nana…”
Elliot grasped her small hand, locking eyes with her. Recalling Lionel’s words, he took a deep breath, hesitated several times, and finally mustered the courage to ask.
“We… will have more children in the future. Can we… terminate this pregnancy?”
“What are you saying?” Sheena did not catch on immediately. She was momentarily stunned.
Pulling her hand away from his grasp, a sudden chill seemed to sink into her limbs and bones.

She simply could not understand.
Remembering Elliot’s recent conversation with Tania and the sarcastic expression on her face, she continued, “so, you believed Auntle Tania’s words? Do you doubt the babies are Nathaniel’s? You don’t trust my feelings for you?”
“I absolutely believe in your feelings for me. How could I ever think otherwise, Nana…”
Sheena avoided his touch, attempting to leave the bed.
