    Chapter 589


    Ste spoke mildly as if she had


    completely forgotten the conflict fromst night. It seemed she just wanted to turn the page and never


    mention it again.


    Things had always been like that between them, sweeping things under the rug and pretending those is


    sues never existed.


    After they were reunited, Weston had wanted to return to the way they used to interact, but he


    always felt a barrier with Ste.


    She


    appeared to excel in acting, but there were times that he could sense that they were simply fooling the


    mselves.


    Today was a rare break for them, in which they weren‘t busy with anything after breakfast. So, they


    decided toze in the hall and watch television.


    Weston sat on the couch and folded her in his arms.


    Ste leaned against his chest and switched channels aimlessly, bored out of her mind.


    She had no idea what Weston liked and assumed he must enjoy watching financial news that she was


    completely


    uninterested in. When she flipped to a financial news channel, however, she heard Weston


    say, “Watch something you like.”


    Ste began switching channels again.


    Serial dramas weren‘t something she fancied, either. She did catch some romantic


    dramas in her youth, just like what many young girls did during her time. After her parents passed


    away, she hardly found herself in the mood to watch such flicks that felt so disconnected from  reality.


    Now that she had joined the crew, there was an impetus for her to watch more dramas and movies to


    better improve her skills.


    Various different programs began ying on the screen.


    Advertisements, variety shows, period dramas...


    Ste‘s eyes zed over all the programs , but nothing truly caught her attention.


    Suddenly, she paused as a glint shed past her eyes.


    She saw an adorable little girl on the screen and simply stared at her.


    It was a beautiful, adorable female toddler dressed in


    overalls and a hat with wings on top. Her mother was standing next to her as they yed together.


    The little girl listened obediently to her mother‘s instructions, and she lifted her


    chubby hands as she asked innocently, “Did I do well?”


    “It looked fabulous. I love everything you do!”


    The mother lowered her head and kissed her cheeks.


    The little girl smiled brightly, shing her dimple.


    Ste‘s grip over the remote control tightened as an inexplicable feeling washed over her.


    She didn‘t even know whether the only child she had and lost was a girl or boy.


    If it were a little girl, she might have been as intelligent and adorable as the girl on the screen.


    It was a simple advertisement , yet it made Ste‘s eyes well


    up with tears, and she was unable to extricate herself from her overwhelming emotions.


    Weston sensed that something was wrong. “What‘s the matter?”


    Ste didn‘t let him catch a glimpse of her eyes.“


    Nothing. I don’t want to watch the television anymore.”


    Weston looked at the screen, saw the adorable little girl, and realization dawned on him. His eyes


    turned dark and heavy.


    He wanted to ask her if having a child was so important to her.


    However, he instinctively felt such a question would be too cruel to ask.


    Yet, he couldn‘t understand Ste‘s undying desire for a child.


    “Forget it if you don‘t want to


    watch it anymore,” With that, he switched the television off. Suddenly, he lifted Ste‘s chin.


    “Let‘s try for another child.”

    Ste‘s eyes widened as she looked at him, bbergasted. “Are you kidding me?”


    “I‘m not.”


    Weston lowered his head and rubbed his nose gently against hers. “Let’s try for another child.
