"In a few days, it would be Uncle Henry's birthday. The family gathering was bound to buzz with talks about updating the family charter. You and Leopold better prepare your case to get everyone on board with the changes." "Got it." Aurelia nodded in agreement.
By dusk, she returned hto the Stirling Manor.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEntering the room, Leopold found her hunched over the desk, scribbling in a notebook. "What are you writing?" he asked casually.
"I'm jotting down secrets to conceiving a girl," Aurelia replied with a mischievous grin.
He chuckled nervously, "Does that stuff work?" "Of course, it does," she said earnestly. "To have a girl, you need to create an acidic environment in your body. Male sperm prefer alkaline, while female sperm thrive in acidic conditions. To increase the chances of a girl, one should eat acidic foods like fish and meat. | even read online that women with preferences for sweet food are more likely to have girls. Apparently, the sugar and fat in sweets can affect the baby's sex. Cheese, desserts, and pastries are perfect for women who want daughters. And men should drink lots of milk and eat plenty of veggies and fruit to boost the survival of female sperm..." Leopold massaged his forehead, "Honey, let's not stress over it. We'll be happy with a boy or a girl." Aurelia shot him a sideways glance, "| already have two boys. I'm not looking for a third." He sighed, "But | only have one son. It wouldn't hurt to have another." He just wanted Liam to cback. He felt sure Liam was out there, waiting to return. He needed to create that opportunity for him.
Aurelia sighed to herself.
Although William was reluctant to cback now, she believed it was only temporary. One day, he'd reclaim his rightful place as Liam.
"You've said it yourself that small decisions are mine to make. Having a baby is a small decision, so it's up towhether we have a daughter or another son." Leopold looked disheveled by her determination, "What if it's already happened?" She paused, shaking her head vigorously, "Impossible." "You're late, aren't you? By ten days. Maybe we should run a test?" She waved him off, "My cycle's always been irregular. A delay of ten days or even a half-month is normal. Plus, we were careful last time." Leopold realized she could be quite oblivious at times. No wonder she was unaware of artificial insemination before.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Even 'safe periods’ aren't foolproof." Aurelia didn't take his concerns to heart. It was a safe period, and they only had sex once. It was impossible to result in pregnancy.
The doctor had said she had a body type that wasn't prone to easy pregnancies.
She went downstairs, returning with cake, milk, and a sour plum drink, handing the milk to Leopold.
"Eat more sweets. It helps in having a daughter." Leopold couldn't help but laugh, pinching her cheek, "You don't want Liam to cback, do you? If we have a daughter, Liam won't have a way to return." Aurelia looked at him somberly, her gaze profound.
"I... I've already let go of Liam." Leopold had noticed her calm demeanor, much more serene than he had anticipated. He had worried she would blhim for Liam's absence, but now he realized that was unnecessary. She was more resilient than he was. Was it because of William? "You moved on from Liam because of William, didn't you?" His expression darkened. After all, William was Arnold's child, not his own.
Aurelia's eyes twinkled with a hint of mischief. She said, "Lettell you something you might not believe. William could be Liam's reincarnation.” Leopold was jolted, "That's impossible." His son could never be reborn as Arnold's. It was simply unacceptable.
