    So, she just let it be


    Ashley gripped <b>the </b>sheets tightly as Es lowered his head to kiss her belly. She was nearly six months pregnant now, and her belly had grown a little. The thought of their child softened him, and he kissed her belly more. But suddenly, he stopped.

    She didn’t want to move anymore, and as soon as she was wrapped in the nket, she fell asleep.


    After showering, Elias joined her in bed and wrapped his arms around her from behind. She pushed him away,ining about the <b>heat</b>, but he persistently tried to snuggle closer. Despite her pushing him away twice, he responded each time by pulling her <b>closer</b>.

    Ashley cried urgently, “Elias! Don’t!”


    Es struggled to restrain himself. Nevertheless, he increased the pressure on Roman’s hand, and it made him cry out in pain.


    Es smiled and said with a chill in his voice, “A child’s behavior reflects his upbringing. You raised a bully, and now that he’s dead, you’re the one to me. Since you’ve failed to teach your son<b>, </b>society will do it for you.”
