Chapter - 207

Lacey shuddered as her cheek blushed all of a sudden because it was the first time in forever since she had come into such close contact with Zeke.

However, she stopped resisting because she enjoyed the sense of security with Zeke around her.

Zeke whispered, “Lacey, it’s time for us to have a child too.”

Lacey hesitated for quite some time and replied, “Let’s talk about it once Sharon is older.”

“I’m grateful to have such an adorable goddaughter.”

Lacey had been against the idea of having a child all along. She felt as though a child would restrain her freedom and adversely impact her business.

However, whatever she felt was nowhere to be found anymore once she ran into Sharon.

She had acknowledged Sharon as her daughter and deemed it unnecessary to give birth to her own daughter.

Zeke nodded. “I’ll do as you say.”

Before long, Daniel and Hannah returned home with Sharon in between their arms.

They bought a lot of stuff for Sharon, including toys and a child’s daily necessities. In fact, most of them were branded items.

The two frugal ones who had always been thrifty didn’t hesitate to spend on Sharon.

Sharon was delighted and got immersed in the toys they had bought her.

Lacey brought Sharon into the washroom to take a bath after she got exhausted from playing with the toys.

When Lacey was bathing her, Sharon asked carefully, “Godmother, can I secretly call you mom?”

Lacey’s eyes welled up at Sharon’s words.

What a poor little one! She must have been alone all along!

Lacey agreed immediately. “Sharon, you don’t have to address me as godmother anymore. Feel free to address me as your mother instead.”

Sharon was delighted. “Mommy is the best!”

Zeke summoned Sharon to an isolated space right after she took her shower. He asked her, “Sharon, can you please do me a favour?”

“Sure!” Sharon replied as she nodded.

Zeke told Sharon, “When mommy tucks you into bed later, tell her to get me to join you guys as well, okay?”

“Okay,” Sharon’s pair of deep-set eyes gleamed.

Lacey showed up with a set of loose pyjamas right after she took her bath.

She smelled and looked great. Zeke could barely resist the temptation to rush over and hold her in his arms.

Lacey held Sharon and placed her on the bed. “Sharon, why don’t you spend a night with me tonight?”

Sharon nodded. “Sure, mommy! Please read me a story!”

Lacey replied with a smile, “Sure! Mommy has a lot of stories to share with you!”

Sharon requested all of a sudden, “Mommy, let’s get daddy to join us! I want daddy and mommy by my side!”

“Huh…?” Lacey thought about it and asked, “Sharon, did anyone instruct you to say this?”

“Daddy did!” replied Sharon.

Cough! Cough!

Zeke’s face reddened as he choked on saliva all of a sudden.

Sharon! You don’t have to be so honest! You should have kept that to yourself!

Zeke was about to defend himself, but Lacey invited him, “Join us.”

Zeke was delighted because Lacey had finally allowed him to join her in bed.

That would indicate the fact that she had accepted him and would eventually open up to him.

Zeke was one step closer to the goal he had in mind.

Hooray! Although it’s a small step for mankind, it’s a huge step for me!

Sharon was delighted as she got to sleep in between Zeke and Lacey.

She would get to kiss Zeke and Lacey from time to time as they were just by her side.

Sharon finally fell asleep as she listened to Lacey’s story.

Lacey heaved a euphoric sigh of relief. “Zeke, switch off the lights. It’s time to sleep.”

Zeke was charmed and could barely pull himself together as she detected a fragrant coming from Lacey the moment she talked to him.

Zeke immediately switched off the lights as instructed and kissed Lacey on the forehead in the dark.

Lacey replied timidly, “Hey!”

“What’s wrong? Did Sharon kiss you?” asked Zeke, pretending he wasn’t the one who had kissed Lacey.

Lacey was speechless and thought to herself.

What a cunning man!
