NovelOnlineChapter 912 Chapter 912: Aliza lowered her eyes. His mention of the baby left her with no room to argue. Feigning reluctance, she sighed and placed a protective hand over her stomach. "Alright. The baby and I will wait for you here. Just don't take too long." Kristopher gave a small nod. "I won't." He reached out, ruffling her hair in an affectionate gesture.
