    Chapter 2232


    Lina hugged Hadwin Stephenson back as she gently patted his back andforted him softly. “Alright,


    there, there. I’ll always be here for you. You know me. I always keep my promises!”


    “How long are you two nning on hugging?” A teasing voice rang in Lina’s ears, and she finally


    seemed to realize it. She stopped hugging him and turned to look at Grace, who had walked over.


    Then, she realized many people around them were looking at them. She instantly blushed.


    Grace noticed her best friend’s slightly reddened eyes and froze, but she smiled and held her best


    friend’s hand. “Come, let me show you what I got for Tina’s full moon party.” With that said, she pulled


    her best friend toward the lounge.


    Jason did not follow them but went up to Hadwin Stephenson. “Everyone here will probably discuss


    how you two have a great rtionship right now. It can end some rumors without much


    effort.”


    Hadwin Stephenson did not exin the hug earlier. He did not do it for the rumors. He just could not


    help himself.


    He was scared when Lina said she wanted more children.


    “What would you do if Grace got pregnant again?” Hadwin


    Stephenson asked suddenly. As far as he knew, Grace almost


    died when she gave birth to the triplets. If she got pregnant again,


    it would cause great damage to her body.


    “She’s not going to get pregnant again. I’m not going to let her


    get pregnant again,” Jason said confidently. Then, he raised his eyebrows and looked at Hadwin


    Stephenson. “What’s the matter? Are you afraid of Lina getting pregnant again?”

    “Yes, I am,” said Hadwin Stephenson after smiling bitterly.


    After all, he would go mad if he had to go through that again.


    “There are many things a man can do to prevent a woman from getting pregnant. It depends on how


    much you’re willing to sacrifice for them,” said Jason. He had also gone through what Hadwin


    Stephenson was going through.


    Something shed across Hadwin Stephenson’s eyes when he


    heard that.


    In the lounge, Grace asked Lina what had happened and why her eyes were red. Lina said, “Hadwin


    was scared when I said I wanted more children. He said he didn’t want any more kids. I… never knew


    he was that scared.”


    Lina sobbed a little when she said that.


    Grace had witnessed for herself how Hadwin Stephenson went through the days when her best friend


    was in aa, so she


    could understand Hadwin Stephenson’s fear. “Men might look


    strong sometimes. It’s as if they can handle the sky if it falls and


    take care of anything. But sometimes, they can be very fragile


    too.”


    It was the same for both Hadwin Stephenson and Jay.


    “I just think that I didn’t care enough about him, especially after


    I woke up. I focused most of my attention on my daughter.


    Otherwise, it wouldn’t have taken me this long to find out how


    scared he was,” said Lina.


    “And what about you? Are you nning on having another


    baby?” asked Grace.


    Lina hesitated for a moment, but she eventually shook her head. “I don’t want him to be that scared


    anymore. If I do get pregnant, perhaps he’ll be in fear from the moment I find out I’m pregnant until I


    give birth to the baby.” If that was the case, her pregnancy would be almost a year of mental torture for


    him.
