Chapter 2335 The look in Luke’s eyes, as well as the tone of his voice, seemed to be hinting at Gwen.
At this moment, Gwen could clearly feel that Luke had somehow already found out about her secret pregnancy,
and he was hinting at her to be honest with him!
However…she did not want to.
She could not help clinging onto that last sliver of hope.
What if Luke was just testing her? What if he had no idea, after all?
If she fell for his mind games and accidentally blurted out her secret to him, she would be the biggest idiot ever!
At the thought of this, she pursed her lips and immediately clamped her mouth shut.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLuke’s expression darkened when he saw that Gwen refused to speak any further.
He clutched her hand even harder and pulled her toward the direction of the dining room.
“Godmom and Uncle Luke are so cute together!” Nellie grinned at them, her little hands clapping in enthusiasm as
she chirped, “I really hope that one day, I can call Uncle Luke my godfather, too!”
Gwen finally began to calm down at the sound of Nellie’s voice. She curled her lips into a smile and replied, “Maybe
one day-”
“This day will never come,” Luke interrupted curtly before she could even finish.
Gwen swallowed the rest of her sentence, and she immediately turned to glance at him. “You…”
“I’m just telling the truth.” Luke shot her an impassive glance. “Or are you really that eager to marry me?”
Gwen immediately forced the remainder of her sentence down her throat. She bit her lip, shot him a meaningful
look, then plopped down in a seat at the dining table.
He was right; she did not intend on spending the rest of her life with him and was planning to leave him eventually.
However, Nellie was only six, and a six-year-old’s world was filled with nothing but fairy tales and happy endings.
Gwen just wanted to appease little Nellie’s longings, but she could not believe that Luke would not even allow her to
do so.
“Godmom and Uncle Luke…” Nellie bit her lip, approached Luna tentatively, and asked in a low voice,” Did they
fight?”
Luna could not help stroking Nellie’s hair tenderly when
she saw the timid look on her face. “That’s one way of putting it. You’re still young, and you won’t understand this.
Just try to stay out of grownups’ affairs from now on, okay?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNellie nodded earnestly but still glanced reluctantly in Luke and Gwen’s direction. “They must’ve fought before
this…”
For some reason, she could not help sensing a silent aura of rage coming off Luke, and Gwen’s expression did not
seem right either. “Mommy has already told you to stay out of grownups’ affairs.” All of a sudden, Neil strode over
and put his arm protectively around his sister’s shoulders. “We kids should just focus on ourselves and not trouble
ourselves over grownups’ issues.”
All of a sudden, he thought of something else and added,” However …if Daddy and Mommy ever fight, we must get
to the bottom of it. The two of them have always been dramatic, and we always need to get involved somehow.”
Luna rolled her eyes at him. “What do you mean, we’ve always been like this? Since when have your father and I
ever required you kids’ intervention?”
A man’s smiling voice rang out behind them, “The kids are right. We’ve always been dramatic, haven’t we?”
