“Okay, Xander!”
Chapter 269 Be My Husband
+15 BONUS
Little Xander had felt warm and fuzzy at the sound of her calling his name. He had taken the job of
leading her seriously and had taken her riding in the garden.
Little Grace’s eyes had flickered from side to side as she asked a series of questions.
“Xander, why doesn’t the pony talk?”
“Why is the sky blue?”
“Why do birds fly?”
“Why are there boys and girls?”
Little Grace had had an unending supply of questions, but little Xander hadn’t been impatient at all. He
had answered every question for her patiently.
“Wow, Xander, you’re so great! You know everything!”
Little Grace had looked at him with adoration, as if there were pink stars shooting out of her eyes. Little
Xander had felt extremely satisfied by that.
This little sister was so adorable!
“Gracie, could you just be my little sister?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLittle Grace had shaken her head at that. “No!”
As she spoke, she began counting on her fingers very seriously. “I have three brothers at home … and
if I add you, I’ll have four older brothers!”
Little Xander’s face had fallen at once.
He had felt a surge of jealousy.
“You have three older brothers, but I only have you as a little sister!”
Little Grace had blinked. Then, she had taken Xander’s little hand. “Then don’t be my older brother. Be
my husband.”
Little Xander had jumped up in shock when he had heard that. He had already turned seven years old,
after all.
He had known many things that other children didn’t! For example, he had learned that boys would
marry girls when they grew up!
After they got married, they could call each other husband and wife and be with each other forever!
Then, they could have a little baby.

But his mother had also said that marriage wasn’t to be done lightly.
So he asked, “Why do you want me to be your husband?”
Little Grace had been full of innocence. “Because my older brother said that every little girl only has
one husband when they grow up. So Xander, do you want to consider being my husband?”
Little Xander had thought that it was a great idea. That way, this adorable little sister would be with him
forever!
“Okay.”
“Let’s pinky swear.”
“Pinky swear.”
Their tiny fingers had intertwined together into a beautiful promise.
However, the next day, little Xander had been woken by someone crying loudly. He had opened his
eyes sleepily to see Little Grace beside him, her face streaked with tears.
At that moment, he had panicked.
“What’s wrong?”
Little Xander had hurriedly tried to comfort her, but no matter how much he had tried, little Grace hadn’t
stopped. In fact, she had cried even harder.
“Don’t cry-”
“I’ll give you a toy.”
“I’ll buy you a doll.”

Little Xander had been beside himself with worry and sweating, but there had been nothing he could
do.
At that moment, Hestia had pushed open the door and walked in. She had picked Grace up in her arms
worriedly. “What’s wrong, Gracie? Why are you crying, sweetheart?”
Little Grace had been distraught as she dove into Hestia’s embrace. “Aaron said that I can’t sleep on
the same bed with a boy or I’ll get pregnant … I don’t want to get pregnant … want to have a little
baby…”
I don’t
Gracie had begun crying even louder as she spoke.
Hestia had been amused by what she had heard. “Sweetie, you won’t get pregnant!”
+15 BONUS
At that, Little Grace had stopped crying abruptly, and she had looked at Hestia hopefully, her face still
streaked with tears. “Really?”
Hestia had nodded firmly. “You and Xander aren’t married, and you’re both little kids. Little kids don’t
have children.”
Little Grace had nodded, half–understanding. Then, she had smiled in relief.
