Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 1564

Just as Charles and Jim were busy talking, Charles' phone rang.

It was a call from Malcolm.

Charles picked up the call, frowning.

A gentle woman's voice rang out from the other end of the line, "Father, it's Heather.

"It's getting late now, and Malcolm has asked me to get some rest, but I'm worried about Luna. Has she given birth yet? Is it a boy or a girl? Could it be multiple babies, like her last pregnancy?"

For a moment, Charles did not know how to answer Heather's questions. He fell silent for a moment and finally replied, "Luna's child..."

Seeing how reluctant he was to tell the truth, Jim immediately snatched the phone away and said curtly, "Luna's child isn't as fortunate as yours, and it passed away."

On the other end of the line, Heather curled her lips into a smile.

Of course she knew that Luna's child had passed away ... She had planned this since the start.

Even though she was smiling, Heather still feigned sadness and said, "Goodness... What a pity. I had thought fate had wanted both her and my children to b e born on the same day, and maybe in the future, they can have an arranged marriage—"

Jim chuckled and interjected, "Luna's baby is also a girl, so I don't think that'll be possible at all. They could’ve both become sisters, though. It's just that..."

Jim's tone changed as he continued, "As long as they don't become sisters who sabotage each other, that'll b e great."

It was clear that he was hinting at something else, but Heather pretended not to have understood him. "You have a great sense of humor, Jim."

With that, she let out an exhale and added, "Well, it's getting late now, and Malcolm is insisting that I get some rest, so I'll go to bed now.
