Chapter 1526 To Have A Baby

“Okay, be careful on your drive back home!“ Saul said with a concerned expression.

Beside him, Fabian was still trying to convince Cherish that she should have a baby of her own soon.
“Cherish, you must take this seriously. Don't get me wrong. This is for your own good,“ she told her.

Tired of Fabian's nagging, Cherish pretended not to hear her and turned to Saul instead. She smiled at
him and said, “Yes, Dad, we'll be careful. We're going to leave now. I promise I'll come and visit you
guys again soon. Bye!“ Then, she walked away in a hurry, closed the door, and made herself
comfortable inside the car.

“How rude! She's getting more impolite by the minute! I wasn't even finished speaking,“ Fabian
complained and huffed.

Unable to stand Fabian's attitude anymore, Saul turned to her with a frown. “I'm tired of you telling my
daughter what she should do. Whether they want to have a baby or not, it's up to them to decide as a
couple. It's not our business. It's useless for us old people to nag them about it.“

To say that Fabian was annoyed at his words was an understatement. She was livid. Fabian didn't
expect that Saul would also view her as a nagger. She scowled at him and ranted, “If she would just
listen to me, then maybe I wouldn't have to nag at her. What would happen if we don't tell her what to
do? At this rate, we will be dead before we even get to meet our grandchild. Is that what you want,
huh?“

Saul had expected his wife to explode after he scolded her. So, he quickly covered his ears with his
hands and ran inside.

On their way back, Carlos casually asked Cherish as he drove, “Honey, did you pay attention to what
Mom said earlier? Should we start considering it?“



To his surprise, Cherish appeared to be in a temper when she replied, “What? Why are you even
listening to her? When I'm ready to have a baby, I'll tell you!“

Despite her irritated tone, Carlos pursued the topic. “How about we start making preparations for it later
when we get home?“ he asked in a hopeful tone.

“Just shut up and focus on the road!“ Cherish hissed and turned her head away to stare at the view
from the car window.

When they got back home, they found Chuck and Leah in their living room waiting for their return.

“Oh good, you're back! Come on, sit down and rest for a while. We'd like to discuss something with
you!“ Leah greeted them with an encouraging smile, and then fondly looked at her daughter-in-law.

It was no secret that she and Chuck also wanted Cherish and Carlos to have a baby as soon as
possible. It was obvious that they were pretty anxious to get a grandson!

After a few seconds of silence, Leah slightly nudged Chuck in the arm and he started talking. “Carlos,
you and Cherish have been married for quite some time now, haven't you? Have you two talked about
having a baby yet?“

The question made Cherish feel so embarrassed that she wished that the ground would just swallow
her whole. Why was everyone pressuring her to have a baby?

Feeling helpless, she glanced at Carlos, and then turned to her father-in-law. Her face was as red as a
tomato. She murmured softly, “Dad, about that, Carlos and I decided that we are going to wait for a bit.
We haven't really decided on anything final yet. We still need to discuss more about it.“

From her answer, it was obvious that Cherish wasn't too fond of the idea of having a child. Leah
noticed this too. So, she quickly waved her hand and said in a panicked voice, “But Cherish, you can't



wait for too long though! I've asked around about it. You're currently at the best age to get pregnant!
Listen to me, you and Carlos should arrange it as soon as possible. It's time for you to give us a cute
little grandson! Oh, how I wish I could hold one right now in my arms!“

Her words made Carlos chuckle. He noticed that Cherish was embarrassed by the conversation but he
chose to ignore it. Truth be told, he was also eager to have a child with her as soon as possible.
However, since Cherish wasn't too keen on talking about the whole thing, he decided to keep quiet
about it.

Confronted by her mother-in-law's words, Cherish couldn't think of a reply. She was so embarrassed
that she couldn't say a word. The atmosphere in the room turned awkward.

Unsure of what to do, Cherish cast a panicked glance at Carlos and hoped that he would do something
to lessen the tension growing in the air. When Carlos saw her expression, he realized what was
happening and cleared his throat. He turned to his parents and calmly said, “Dad, Mom, don't worry so
much about it. Cherish and I definitely have a plan. I assure you that you will get to hold a chubby
grandson sooner or later!“

“Yes, yes! Anyway, it's getting quite late. Dad, Mom, you should head to bed now!“ Cherish added in a
rush. She was afraid that Leah would bring up the topic of having grandchildren again.

Leah sighed helplessly. Then, she said, “Well, I suppose we old people don't know how you young
people think these days. As long as we get a grandson in the end, we won't pressure you about it
anymore.“

When they left, Cherish felt as if she was going to faint from how warm her face had become. She
wished that there was some way that she could just turn into an ant so she could crawl away from
uncomfortable situations like that. She really had to stay away from stressful conversations. The fact
that everyone around her was rushing for her to have a baby made her feel so self-conscious!



After returning to the bedroom, Cherish threw herself onto the bed with a groan. The memories of
everyone urging her to have a baby kept replaying in her mind.

She closed her eyes and vigorously shook her head, hoping that it would make her forget about the
pressure that she felt from everyone.

Lost in thought, she didn't realize that Carlos had already come in the room and laid down beside her.
With a slight grin on his face, he fondly gazed at her and decided not to disturb her.

“Ah! You scared me! What on earth were you doing? Why were you sneaking around? You scared me
half to death, you know!“ Cherish yelled as soon as she opened her eyes and saw her motionless
husband beside her. Since he had come in without making so much as a sound, she truly didn't feel his
presence until she opened her eyes.

“Ha-ha, how silly. I didn't scare you. You were so lost in thought that you didn't hear me come in!“
Carlos couldn't help but chuckle.

Cherish only rolled her eyes at him and said in an irritated tone, “They were all pressuring me to have a
baby but you didn't say anything. You didn't help me. Do you have any idea how embarrassing that was
for me?“

Instead of replying to her, Carlos planted a soft peck on her cheek and let out an amused chuckle.
“Well, maybe it's because I want to have a baby as much as they want us to have one.“ Then, he slyly
moved closer to Cherish and gave her a sincere look. “Let's have a baby, Cherish. He's going to be a
chubby and cute little thing. When he grows up, he might even take care of us,“ he told her.

When she felt her cheeks heat up again, she pushed him away and said, “You wish! I don't want a
baby. Giving birth looks painful. Besides, a lot of women experience difficulties during childbirth.



Sometimes, it's either they couldn't protect themselves or they couldn't protect their child. To tell you
the truth, I do not want to get pregnant.“

When he heard her reasoning, Carlos couldn't help but chuckle at her. “Wait, seriously? That's why you
don't want to have a baby with me? You know the chances of you experiencing difficulties during
pregnancy are slim, right? You are a strong and healthy young woman. It's almost impossible for you to
have a difficult labor. Trust me, you're going to be fine!“

Instead of feeling reassured, Cherish frowned at him. She picked up a pillow and smacked him with it.
“Strong? Are you telling me I'm fat? Shut up! I am not fat at all!“

“Stop! Stop!“ Carlos said in between laughter. “Okay, that was on me. I'm sorry. I didn't mean it like that.
You're fit! Super fit!“ Carlos laughed and begged for mercy. When Cherish stopped hitting him, he
sneakily crawled closer to her again and whispered in her ear, “I am serious though. Let's have a baby.“

Without waiting for an answer, Carlos lifted up the blanket with a huge grin. It seemed that he was quite
determined to carry out this mission of his.

When Ethan worked for Bill before, he would usually secretly bribe several of his subordinates. Over
time, it had ended up as a big threat to Bill. Bill knew that if he didn't take matters into his own hands,
then he would risk losing his position and power.

Inside a warehouse that used to be an abandoned car factory in the suburb, Bill was sitting casually on
a chair with his legs crossed and a cigar in his mouth. His expression was rather gloomy. He looked to
be in deep thought as he exhaled out tiny smoke rings from his mouth.

After a while, he snuffed out his cigar and picked up the phone. He dialed a number. “Damon, what's
the update on that thing I asked you to do? Have you gotten them?“ he asked in a deadpan tone.



A deep and somber voice came from the other end of the line, “Yes, boss. Everything is done. I am on
my way.“

“Well done!“ Bill replied with a satisfied smirk and then hung up the phone.

There was no way that Ethan would sit idly and do nothing if they caught the closest person to Ethan. It
just wasn't his nature.

Ten minutes later, Damon escorted Shane and the others out of the car with gritted teeth. Pushing and
shuffling, he forced them to walk slowly into the warehouse. Bill lit up another cigar and smiled smugly.
He slowly walked over to Shane and aggressively ripped off the tape that was stuck on his mouth.

“What the hell do you want?! Come at me if you have the balls! What kind of men are you, huh?
Sneaking around and doing things secretly. Shame on you!“ Shane yelled at Bill and scowled at him,
his chest rising in anger.
