A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 1564

“My kid's already stealing my wifes attention from me before they're being born. Once the baby's born, doesn't that mean I'll have no place in my wife's heart?” Larry exclaimed dramatically.

Upon hearing that, Joan put down the book in her hands. “How old are you? Why are you jealous of your kid? Aren't you childish?”

“I don't care. Other than when you're taking care of the kid, the rest of your time is mine. No one can steal you from me.”

Larry was like a kid defending his dignity; he refused to let an unborn baby win against him.

“Okay, okay. Whatever you say it is.”

Joan relented, not wanting to continue arguing with the childish man.

“By the way, Larry, shouldn't we check whether our baby's a girl or a boy now?” Joan pointed out.

“Yes, but is that important to you?” Larry replied with a chuckle.

“Of course it is. I can only read more in-depth after finding out whether our baby's a girl or a boy.”

What if I find out too late about the baby's gender? What if I've been preparing for a daughter but the baby turns out to be a boy? What will I do if the boy grows up like a girl?

Ever since Joan was pregnant, she was alarmingly alert with her motherly instincts. It got to the point Larry was fearful. Joan was often going on and on about which foods she could not eat and what activities she could not do. Larry was speechless.

Thinking that it was better if they did a checkup, Larry agreed, "if so, we'll do a checkup sometime soon. After that, we can tell Mom and Dad about it."

“Yes, I'd like to go back to my parents' place too. It's been a long time.”

After all those things that had happened, Joan had yet to go home to visit her parents.

Although it had been peaceful for a while, Joan had been preoccupied with the thoughts of her child. Hence, the thought of visiting her parents did not cross her mind.

At that, Joan could not help but feel guilty.
