Chapter 1320


    Alec was grilling some buffalo wings when he heard Max’sment. He couldn’t help but raise a brow.


    “Why? Are you jealous of me?”


    “What the heck should I be jealous of? I’m already married myself,” Max replied. Besides, it was not


    like he really liked Jenny back then. He was just curious about Alec’s feelings toward the whole


    situation.


    “Why are you asking so much, then?” Alec rolled his eyes at him. “By the way, when do you and Jade


    n to have children?”


    Alec’s question came when Max least expected it, so it startled him for a moment. “Why are you asking


    me this? Don’t tell me you and Jenny n to have children already?”


    “Isn’t it too early forthat?” Max thought.


    “We haven’t made any ns yet. That’s why I’m asking you,” Alec replied. He couldn’t get a grasp of


    when would be the perfect time to have children, so he decided to gather some information from


    others.


    Max pondered what Alec said seriously for a moment and finally answered, ‘Well, Jade and I aren’t in a


    hurry to have children at the moment. Having a child would spell the end of our perfect little world


    where there’s only the two of us.”


    Truth be told, he hoped to enjoy a few more years with Jade alone-just the two of them. Having


    children wasn’t that important to him, as he wasn’t that fond of children to begin with.


    Hearing Max’s reply, Alec realized having a child would definitely disrupt the private time they had with


    each other. As a result of that, he dismissed the idea immediately. Initially, he’d considered having a


    child while Old Mr. Faust was still around because that would make his grandfather very happy.


    However, after the short chat with Max, he didn’t think that way anymore.


    If they had a child, Jenny’s focus would undoubtedly shift her attention to caring for their baby. By that


    time, she wouldn’t have enough energy to tend to Alec.


    “You’re right. We’re not in a hurry to have children either,” Alec expressed with one final nod. After that,


    they didn’t dwell on the topic.


    On the other side, Jenny, Stephanie, and Jade sat together. Mnie had been sitting with Paul, yet he


    ignored herpletely and treated her like she was air. Hence, after giving it some thought, she


    reluctantly came over to Jenny’s side.


    “Jenny, after a long conversation with Leonardst night, we decided to have our wedding on a


    beautiful ind,” Stephanie announced.


    Finding their choice interesting, Jenny chirped, “That’s wonderful! Now that’s going to be a unique


    wedding. I’m sure your wedding will be totally unforgettable.”


    “Don’t forget to invite me by then,” Jade said. She’d never attended a wedding on an ind before.


    Stephanie nodded, and as she was about to reassure Jade it wouldn’t be a problem, Mnie


    requested meekly, “Count me in. I would like to attend your wedding too.” As soon as those words left


    her mouth, everyone turned to look at her. Feeling a bit embarrassed, she continued, “I just want to


    witness your happiness, Stephanie.”


    Of course, her main intention was to bring Paul along so that he could witness Stephanie and


    Leonard’s wedding firsthand. Mnie was hoping that he wouldn’t keep fantasizing about getting back


    together with Stephanie after that.


    “You’re wee to join my wedding, of course,” Stephanie replied.


    Although they weren’t close to Mnie, she didn’t dislike her. In addition, she knew that Mnie was


    having a tough time connecting with Paul emotionally, so she wanted to help her.


    While the women were chatting, Gilbert finished his drink and got up to join Paul.


    Paul frowned as he saw Gilbert sitting next to him. “Do you need something?”


    Personally, Paul thought that they had nomon topics to talk about. Even though Marigold had


    epted Gilbert’s money and didn’t n to hold him responsible for their child, that didn’t mean Paul


    would let it go as she did.


    “Have you seen Marigold recently?” Gilbert asked.


    Paulughed in response upon hearing that. “Be honest with me, Gilbert. What do you really want to


    say? Why are you suddenly showing concern for Marigold? What are you up to?’


    “You’re reading too much into it. I’m just reminding you to visit her. She didn’t seem to be doing well


    when I happened to run into her the other day, ” Gilbert said, sipping his beer. He wasn’t someone who


    enjoyed meddling with other people’s affairs.N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content.
