"You're twisting my words on purpose. You know that's not what | meant." Alexander leaned forward as well until the tips of their
noses met. "Galen will take over the Russell family in the future, so he needs to be trained from a young age. You said we shouldn't
pamper our children too much, didn't you? Hmm?"
He rubbed the tip of his nose against hers and lowered his gaze to her lips. Her lips would part and close again when she spoke,
looking extremely seductive to him.
"Yeah. We can’t pamper him too much, but we shouldn't torture him. | still think it's too early for him to start, and...” Lily paused
and placed her hands on his shoulders, pushing him slightly further away. "What if he's not interested in business and doesn't want
to take over the family?"
‘This man is always moving closer towithout my realizing it. When | look at his face, which is close to perfection, | lose my
ability to think. Also, he would talk about serious topics every time, which would always end up with us locking lips with each other,
then later... we would need to discuss the topic again.’

Although Galen was only one year old, and it was too early to comment on his future career development, they had to consider
every possibility.
For instance, Benedict was not interested in business at all, and all he wanted was to focus on his wooden carvings. Due to that, he
had a long-standing conflict with his family.
Lily wished for Galen to succeed, but she did not want him to grow up with stress on the path she paved for him.
"He's my eldest son, destined to take over the Russell family from the moment he was born! He's destined to take over the
company!” Alexander, who was suddenly pushed away, was dissatisfied. He tried to get closer to Lily as he said," I'm sure he can
do it."
"Being able to do it and his willingness to do it are two different things!" Lily's hands dropped from Alexander's shoulders to his
chest as she kept him away from her. "You toldyou were stressed and felt burdened since you were young. Do you want Galen
to go through the sthings that you did? Do you want him to suffer so much?"
That made Alexander silent for a moment. Indeed, he had been carrying those burdens since a young age and knew those were his
responsibilities. Hence, he worked hard and learned everything as though his life depended on it. The other kids had tto play,
but that was not the case for him. Even when he went on vacation, it was just a trip to learn about all the business alliances and
how things were done in the industry.
He had seen too much and had gone through many dangers and frame-ups. No one had ever asked him what he wanted to do
because his life had been set since the moment he cinto this world.
As the heir to the Russell family, he would be the one to lead the Russell family in the future. Hugo had high hopes for him back
then, but Margaret had always tried to pull him down from that position.
‘Was that really what you wanted?’ It was his first tgetting that question today, and he had no idea how to reply.
"Okay then. | promise you | won't force our son to do things he doesn't want. When he's old enough to make decisions for himself, |
won't force him to take over the company if it's against his wishes." Alexander raised his hand as a promise to her.
"What will happen to all your businesses then? What will happen to the company?” Lily asked again.

Alexander just smiled bitterly. "What do you think? | said that Galen should take over the company, but you're worried he doesn't
want to do it. | said | wouldn't force him to do it, and now you're concerned about my business? What about 19
"What?"
"Let's have a few more children. I'm sure one of them will be capable enough and willing to accept this responsibility. What a
perfect solution, don't you think?"
Finally, he found the chance to pull her into his embrace. When he hugged her, that was when he felt the most content.
"I shouldn't have expected anything from you!” Lily hit his shoulder lightly, but she did not resist his touch anymore. Slowly, she
rubbed her belly. "I was overthinking, and there's still a long tuntil Galen grows up. Perhaps he'd be willing to take over the
family and the company. All of our arguments and concerns would be pointless in that case.”
"Why are you feeling so many things at once today? Didn't you go to the institute earlier? What happened?” Alexander could tell
Lily was worrying more than she usually would.
