Chapter 104 Something About the Child
Chapter 104 Something About the Child
Mary realized she must think of a way!
'What if Ceres gets pregnant earlier than me?'
'My child must be Jack's first grandson!'
In the blink of an eye, after finishing the school exams, Ceres started her winter vacation. Nevertheless,
the end of the year was John's busiest time.
Every branch company would carry out the end-of-year inventories and make preliminary plans for the
coming year. In addition, there was also the commendation of the employees and the annual meetings.
Thus, Johny was very busy.
On this day, Johny didn't return home until ten o'clock because of the meeting. Recently, he had been
busy with meetings. Hardly had he started to have sex with Ceres when he had no time.
It had been a few days since the winter vacation began. However, Alice didn't return home until today,
so Ceres had been staying at school with Alice these days. Finally, she saw Alice off at the station.
When Johny returned home and saw that Ceres was looking at her phone on the bed, he smiled at
once. "Why are you still up?"
Ceres sat up. "I'm waiting for you."
"Very well," Johny said softly before walking to the bed. "By the way, I've arranged for someone to
handle your father's case. I hope that you can get mentally prepared."
Hearing this, Ceres immediately became nervous.
"The evidence against him is strong, so he will be sentenced soon. It is very difficult to reopen the case
unless we find some new evidence or there is something secondary. If not, the retrial won't be
approved."
The smile on Ceres's face vanished. She knew that it was difficult, but it was much harder than she
thought.
"I also hope you can understand that, if he is not sentenced, the case can be subject to manipulation.
However, once the process is over and he is sentenced, we can do nothing but follow the law."
Ceres nodded. "I see."
"So don't worry. I will ask someone to keep an eye on this, but the investigation always takes a long Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
time."
Ceres nodded vigorously, "Okay. I believe you!"
Anyhow, there was hope. Although it was a little slower, she believed that it would end well.
Johny gently rubbed Ceres's head. "I'm going to take a shower! Wait for me!"
His words aroused many thoughts in Ceres's mind.
In case she would fall asleep, Johny finished the shower in five minutes. He got under the quilt as fast
as he could, but Ceres snuggled against his chest.
"What's up?"
"I think there is something we need to discuss."
"What is it?"
"It's about the child," Ceres found it hard to speak. She was just twenty-one years old, but she was
already married, so she wanted to discuss it with him. "I'm afraid I will get pregnant if we keep doing so.
Should we take any contraceptive precautions?"
Johny was stunned. He had considered this, but he did not expect Ceres to bring it up.
"What do you think?"
"Of course, I can't have a baby now. I still have to go to school. If I hadn't married you, I would have
gone abroad to study. But next spring, I will do an internship in the Eagle Group. I have a lot of things to
do, so I don't want a child so early, and neither am I ready to be a mother."
Ceres said what she was thinking.
Johny knew her well. "Ceres, I have to tell you. I'm already thirty years old."
He was thirty years old. Many men at this age usually had a child who could go to school.
Thus, Johny was also very conflicted about this. On one hand, his current goal was to be in charge of
the Winsor Group. He could not expose his weakness to Henry or other forces. Ceres was currently his
weakness. If he had a child, he could spare no time to protect the child.
But he was very eager for a child. After all, he was thirty years old. He was born when Jack was thirty
years old, so Jack always regretted getting married late and having a baby late. Otherwise, many
things would have been under Jack's control.
Ceres got dismayed at once.
For the first time, she realized the trouble caused by the age gap.
Her life had just started while he needed a stable life.
"Let nature take its course. There is only a 20% chance of getting pregnant every month. Only 10% of
the couples will get married in one to two months. 50% will get pregnant within six months. 20% will get
pregnant within a year, and 10% will get pregnant within two years."
Ceres looked at Johny in confusion. "What about the other 10%?"
"They suffer from infertility."
Seeing that Ceres was still a little worried, Johny continued, "Don't worry. Even if you are pregnant, we
can ask the servant to look after our child. You don't need to worry about that. Instead, you can do
anything you want to do."
However, Ceres shook her head. "No, I must take care of my child myself. I don't want him to feel like
he has no mother."
Johny was touched.
He saw so many similarities between his childhood and hers. When he was a child, he often felt that he
was an orphan. He seldom saw his father or mother but the servants at home.
"Alright."
"Just let it run its course." Ceres accepted Johny's suggestion in peace.
Anyway, it had been just two months since they began to sleep together, so she thought she couldn't
get pregnant so early.
"Are you done? I'm going to start." Johny said as he kissed Ceres's ear. He found that Ceres's ears
were very sensitive.
"Turn off the lights!" Ceres cried out and hid into the quilt.
The next day, Johny was still in high spirits when he got up, but Ceres could hardly open her eyes.
She was in a daze as she snuggled in the quilt. She was almost worn out. If she hadn't asked him to
stop, Johny would have had sex with her for the whole night.
Johny leaned close to her ear and said, "I'm going to work."
"Okay."
"When I'm on vacation, you should exercise with me. You need to increase your strength."
"No!" Ceres shrank into the quilt in pain.
Seeing that she was bashful, Johny left in satisfaction.
When Bob arrived at the building of the Winsor Group early in the morning, he found Johny was in a
good mood.
"It seems you get along well with Ceres."
Johny pursed his lips with a smile and changed the subject. "What brings you to see me?"
"I've found some clues about the assassination last time. The killer comes from an organization with a
code name 9. It is a very powerful international assassination organization. It has excellent weapons
and charges very much. Its killers never do business with strangers.
Johny narrowed his eyes. "Do you mean it's Henry?"
