Chapter 1187


    Most men would have a strong stance about whose surname their children took after.


    For thousands of years, an unwritten rule had been set in stone between men and women that


    children born should take after their father’s surname.


    Since time immemorial, most people indeed practiced this.


    This was especially the case for high-status and influential families like the Batton family.


    At the end of the day, men and their side of the family all cared a lot about children taking after the


    surname of the paternal side.


    However, X didn’t think that Stanley and his family wouldn’t care about it at all. This really


    touched her.


    “What’s the matter?” Stanley asked curiously when he saw that X was stunned.


    “Why would you think like this?” X asked.


    “Like what?” Stanley asked.


    “Don’t men usually care a lot about whose surname their children take after? Most men wouldn’t


    agree to let their children take after their mother’s surname,” X said.


    However, Stanley chuckled nonchntly. “I don’t care. You’re the one who gives birth to the


    children. Naturally, the children should take after your surname,” he said.


    X hadn’t thought about this before too.


    X shook her head. “This won’t be necessary…”


    She didn’t care about this issue.


    Stanley smiled. “It’s still too early to talk about this now. Let’s discuss this in the future. Go up and


    take a shower… I’lle to you after the meeting, alright?”


    “Okay…” X answered softly.


    While speaking, her stomach suddenly started rumbling.


    X immediately felt embarrassed.

    Since the buffet food she ate during dinner was somewhat oily, and she wasn’t in a good mood, she


    soon became full. However, now that she was home, she suddenly felt hungry again.


    X subconsciously took a step back. “About that… You get back to work… Don’t worry about me.


    I’ll be heading upstairs now,” she said.


    With that, she started walking up the stairs…


    However, just as she took a few steps forward, Stanley reached out and pulled her back into his


    embrace. He held her face with both hands. “What’s the matter? Are you hungry? Hmm?” he asked


    softly.


    X nodded. “Yeah… But it’s alreadyte. I don’t want to eat anything,” she said.


    During this period, she’d gained two kilograms because Stanley had fed her too well.


    She couldn’t afford to gain more weight…


    If she lost control, the consequences were unthinkable.


    The two of them happened to be facing Stanley’sptop camera.


    Stanley’s employees could see the affectionate scene through the camera.


    Right then, each person’s eyes on the screen were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred…


    “Wait for me for a while…” Stanley said softly again. After that, he returned to theptop and turned


    on the microphone. “Let’s continue tomorrow…” He said.


    After that, Stanley quickly turned off hisptop and walked up to X. “I’ll make you something to


    eat. Go upstairs.”


    While Stanley spoke, he naturally held X’s hand. He then pulled it close to his attractive lips and


    gently kissed it.


    X felt her heart beating wildly.


    This was the man she loved!


    “You don’t have to do this… I’m trying to lose weight…” X said.


    “If you want to lose weight, I’ll do it with you after you eat,” Stanley said.
