Chapter 794: Chapter 790: No Second Child Anymore
Mr. Lewis sighed, “You have indeed struck gold! You must have accumulated virtues over decades of lives to marry such a wife and have three children.”
In a rare moment, Sonia Seaton said something nice for Roy Lewis.
“He isn’t that bad either; he can be considered a match for Richelle.”
Having received his “mother-in-law’s” approval, the smile on Roy Lewis’s face deepened a bit more.
Only then did he get a chance to look at the lanterns hanging in the room.
“Well, they are indeed beautiful. Grandpa, your friends have an unusual taste.”
Finished speaking, Roy then said to Sonia Seaton.
“Master, please sit down. I’m going to see if I can help in the kitchen.”
Although he said he wanted to help, in fact, he just missed Richelle too much.
Mr. Lewis and Sonia naturally knew his true intentions. After all, his only skill in the kitchen was probably causing a disaster.
“Go ahead, I told the chef to cook, but Richelle insisted on doing it herself.”
When Roy Lewis entered the kitchen, he first hugged the three children, kissed them one by one, then patted their little heads and said.
“Darlings, the kitchen is full of smoke. You guys go out and play.”
Timothy chuckled, teasing his father with a grin.
“Dad, you just want to monopolize mom, you should just say it. We are not oblivious…”
At a loss whether to laugh or cry, Roy playfully pinched his face and said,
“You’re right, daddy misses mommy. Isn’t it normal? I haven’t seen her for a whole day!”
Timothy winked at him, “That’s better, honesty does no harm. We are not naive kids who don’t understand anything.”
Having said that, he signaled his siblings, Timmy and Tifanny, who were trying hard not to laugh.
“Brother, sister, let’s go. We don’t want to be a third wheel.”
Roy chuckled, watching the three mischievous children walk out hand in hand.
Richelle, who had been busy in the kitchen and watching the playful scene, finally couldn’t help but burst into laughter as the children walked out.
Roy let out a resigned sigh, wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his chin on her shoulder.
“And you’re laughing… They’re so small yet they are already bullying me…”
Roy rarely showed such spoiled behavior, which startled Richelle.
She leaned back towards him, forehead to forehead.
“Are you okay? You’re not running a fever, are you?”
Roy looked up and bit her lip gently, then let go after hearing her gasp.
“I feel like you’re schadenfreuding.”
Richelle knew he had been busy for a while, and must have been under substantial pressure.
She turned her head and kissed the corner of his lips.
“How could I be doing that? Timothy isn’t wrong. If you want something, just say it outright. Otherwise, do you think you could trick these smart kids?”
Roy said,
“I know I can’t fool them, but at least it shouldn’t be so blatant, right? They’re still so young.”
Richelle shook her head, “Roy, as I told you, you cannot judge our children by the standards of normal kids. Think about it; children their age in other families still wet their beds. But our kids have already learned about the origins and evolution of life.”
“Just a few days ago, Timmy asked me, Mommy, are you and daddy planning to have another baby?”
Roy froze.
Seeing his reaction, Richelle asked in surprise,
“Why are you reacting so strongly?”
Roy hesitantly asked her, “Honey, do you want to have another one?”
Richelle was bewildered, “No, Timmy just asked. Besides, we are taking precautions, how is that possible?”
But Roy persisted, “But do you want one?”
Richelle shook her head, “To be honest, I don’t want to. We already have three children and that’s enough for me. But if it happens accidentally, I would give birth to the baby and love them as much as the other three.”
Roy breathed out a long sigh, “Then rest assured, there won’t be another one.”
Richelle turned to face him, “Why?”
Roy looked straight into her eyes.
“Because I’ve had a vasectomy. So, you will not suffer the pain of pregnancy anymore.”
Richelle gasped in surprise, “When did this happen?”
Roy gave a vague reply, “It’s been quite a while. After seeing how painful childbirth was, I didn’t think it was necessary for you to suffer again. Even if we had only one child, I wouldn’t let you go through that pain again.”
Roy’s words deeply moved Richelle.
But she also thought he was adorably foolish.
She couldn’t help but tiptoe up and plant a kiss on his slightly stubbled chin.
“You’re so silly. Why didn’t you discuss it with me?”
Roy shook his head, “It was my personal decision. Besides, it’s just a minor surgery.”
Richelle shook her head again, “It’s not about the severity of the surgery. Isn’t your family always keen on having more descendents? Like grandpa, he has six children.”
Of course, Richelle had no intention of becoming a baby making machine, nor did she think of sacrificing herself for the proliferation of the Lewis family.
She just wanted to understand his true thoughts on this matter.
