Free Web NovelChapter 722: Chapter 720 You Are So Cute [1 More]
Elijah listened to Mother Bennett’s suggestion and quickly said with a smile, "Thank you, Auntie!"
Ella looked at a nervous Elijah, blushing and said, "Honey, I’m fine! I don’t want to eat anything else; I just want hot pot. Could you help me cook a few more slices of lamb?"
"Sure, sure!" Elijah nodded excitedly.
"Then I’ll arrange for someone to buy it right away."
"Mom, get one for me too, just in case I’m pregnant too!" Sophia ate the hot pot nonchalantly, showing no reaction at all.
Christopher laughed beside her, immediately adding more food to her bowl. He really liked Sophia’s playful side.
Mother Bennett chuckled and said, "Buy, buy, buy, we’ll get one for you too."
Xavier watched the group happily, raised his glass, toasted the two soon-to-be dads, and then toasted the two dads-to-be. Seeing everyone coupled up, his long-lonely heart felt a bit warm but still had a sense of emptiness, thinking, when could he also have a normal life? That would be great.
After dinner, everyone set off fireworks in the yard.
Maya leaned against Liam’s embrace, feeling all warm inside. All those unhappy things from the past seemed like they happened in a previous life. Her loneliness finally became a thing of the past, and happiness filled her present and future.
"Sophia, Ella, the things you wanted have arrived!" Mother Bennett eagerly announced as she came into the yard.
"Mom, we’ll check a bit later. Let’s finish the fireworks first." Sophia held fireworks in hand, extremely delighted.
Maya stood aside, gently touching her belly, "Son, aren’t the fireworks beautiful? After you’re born, Mommy will take you to watch fireworks every year."
The colorful sparks in the sky were beautiful, like tomorrow’s life—extraordinarily brilliant.
Liam leaned down and planted a kiss on Maya’s cheek, saying, "Little Panda, you’re so adorable."
Maya was wearing a panda outfit at the time, so Liam affectionately called her Little Panda.
"Third Brother, this name is great. How about we call our son ’Little Panda’ as his nickname, so cute." Maya turned her head and kissed Liam’s chin.
"Sure, sure! Whatever you say, as long as you’re happy." Liam was extremely gentle; he always agreed to whatever Maya suggested.
Asher stood next to Liam, taking a deep breath, quietly took out his phone; it was empty, and there was no news from Riley Moore, who was still absent from tonight’s New Year’s Eve gathering. Asher felt inexplicably lost, not knowing how to communicate with her.
Moments later, the fireworks ended, and everyone returned to the villa, sitting in the living room to collectively watch the Spring Festival Gala, a yearly must-watch program. Sophia, meanwhile, took Ella along to go for a pregnancy test.
Not long after, Sophia hurried out of the bathroom, looked at Christopher, and said, "Honey, I’m pregnant."
In an instant, Christopher was utterly stunned, immediately stood up from the sofa, and looked at Sophia with an incredibly unbelievable expression. They had been married for less than two months, could he really be so potent that she got pregnant so quickly?
Christopher took a deep breath, stared seriously at Sophia, "Sophia, you’re not kidding with me, right? You’re not playing with me, are you?"
At this moment, Ella also walked out of the bathroom and said seriously, "It’s true, Sophia is pregnant, and I’m pregnant too."
Elijah immediately approached Ella, supporting her, "Yes, yes, after the eighth day of the lunar new year, we’ll go for hospital check-ups. You need to be careful these days, don’t do anything by yourself, try to leave it to me."
"Okay!" Ella nodded.
Christopher, with a surprised smile on his face, walked closer to Sophia, pinched her cheek, and asked, "Wife, are you really pregnant? We’ll go to the hospital on the eighth too for a check-up."
Then, he whispered in Sophia’s ear, "Wife, it doesn’t matter even if you’re not pregnant. We just got married, we can still enjoy a little more time as just the two of us."
Sophia’s quick pregnancy was a bit unbelievable to everyone.
On the sofa, Maya snuggled in Liam’s arms, giggling non-stop, thinking, there’s so much good news this year, what a great start.
Listening to Christopher, Sophia pouted unhappily and said, "Do I have to vomit to count as being pregnant? I just tested; I am pregnant."
"Sophia, did you test wrong? Could you have tested Ella’s?" Lucas thought this was possible, as Sophia was always a bit careless, it wasn’t impossible.
"No." Ella and Sophia denied together.
Seeing everyone bustling, Mother Bennett quickly grabbed Sophia’s little hand, "Sophia, stop fooling around. You seem more energetic than usual, let me accompany you for another test. Anyway, we bought a lot of tests, it doesn’t matter to use a few more."
Right after, Sophia was taken back to the bathroom by Mother Bennett for another pregnancy test.
"Pregnant, pregnant, really pregnant, Christopher." Before long, Mother Bennett rushed out with Sophia.
She originally thought Sophia made a small mistake in the bathroom and tested as Ella, unexpectedly, she was really pregnant too.
At this moment, Mother Bennett couldn’t be happier, wanting to pull Sophia to dance with her.
Sophia nonchalantly rolled her eyes at Josiah, "I told you I was pregnant, you guys didn’t believe me, thought I was joking, but it’s true, right! I’m pregnant, right!"
Now, it was Sophia’s turn to gloat since everyone didn’t trust her.
Standing in the living room waiting, Christopher, hearing this news, felt his heart leap, so it means he’s going to be a dad. Inside, he couldn’t describe his feelings, yet a silly smile was plastered on his face, continuously smiling without speaking, his eyes not leaving Sophia for even a moment.
Only when Sophia came close to him did he suddenly open his arms, gently embraced her tightly, thinking, it’s so great not to have missed Sophia, or he would have missed out on one of life’s greatest joys.
Dad! This title was new to Liam, Elijah, Ian, and Christopher, yet they looked forward to it immensely, eagerly anticipating the arrival of the little ones, eagerly waiting for the day they’d say "Dad."
Josiah looked at the room full of people, told the servants to prepare the fruits and snacks, looked at these little ones, and nodded with satisfaction, "So good, so good, everyone gathered together, the house will be lively later."
"Those single over there, you all need to work harder too, don’t fall too far behind."
Currently, the house already had one child, Noah and Henry’s child, with four more on the way, the elders finally wouldn’t be bored; they finally have things to do.
Seven gently touched her big belly, leaning her head on Ian’s shoulder, her smile extraordinarily bright, thinking, it’s so great for things to turn out this way, everyone is happy.
Maya touched her slightly protruding belly, snuggled even closer into Liam’s embrace, giggling as she said, "Third Brother, everyone is going to be a daddy."
"Yes!" Liam placed a gentle kiss on Maya’s forehead.
Two months later, one day at the hospital, Seven was hurriedly pushed into the delivery room, Ian followed her inside, while Liam, Maya, Ella, and others waited outside. Hearing Seven’s cries, Maya was so scared tears started rolling down her cheeks.
