Chapter 1284
Chloe, thinking about the little one possibly growing inside her, brightened up from her recent gloom.
She cracked a small smile. “But I kinda want a boy.”
The smile was slight but her voice was filled with sweetness.
Rose could feel the car filled with an air of happiness. Oh, give it a rest!
“No way! We’re planning to set up our kids, so your baby has to be my future daughter–in–law!”
Chloe chuckled. “I’m just saying, we can’t really choose the sex of our baby.”
Rose seemed a bit begrudging. “Why would you want a boy? A girl would definitely be as smart and pretty as you,
and definitely super cute when little!” “If it’s a boy, he might be more like Damon, who is also definitely going to be
smart and cute.”
As she spoke, Chloe’s mind flashed back to a few pictures of Damon when he was young. That serious and cold little
face, and his cute demeanor when he was little. The thought of having a son as cute as Damon in those photos
would make her incredibly happy.
Thinking about this, Chloe couldn’t help but chuckle. What a strange thought!
“You’ve seriously got it bad! How much do you like him, that even your future child has to resemble him!” True to
being best friends, Rose could read her like a book.
Before Chloe could respond, Rose was already feeling down. “A son would be great, but if you really have a boy, are

for each other, there’s nothing we can do.”
“Or maybe you should have a daughter next time. Let my son marry your daughter. He’ll be a few years older and
will definitely cherish her.”
Rose clamped her mouth shut and turned her head to look out the car window. “Sons are for me to keep,
daughters…”
The atmosphere in the car suddenly became somber. Chloe didn’t expect the mood to change so suddenly. “If you
can’t hold on, maybe the one you’re waiting for shouldn’t be Morrison. Maybe it’s your own persistence, or a long–
standing habit, believing that you love him, and constantly giving, just like me with Lance.
“But Rose, don’t give him the opportunity to hurt you…no, don’t let him keep hurting you…habit is a scary thing.
“The habit of love might be an illusion, but sincere giving is also real. His casual actions or choices are like a knife
stabbing into your heart. When I see you next time, I don’t want to see you covered in wounds.”
Rose’s nose was a bit sour, her eyes felt teary, tears swirled in her eyes, and her teeth bit into the flesh in her
mouth, as she was trying hard not to let the tears flow.
“I won’t do that.” She kept her face turned towards the window, as she spoke, the tears almost fell from her eyes.
She lifted her head and forced the tears back.
Chloe drove in silence, her red lips pressed together tightly, the hand holding the steering wheel unconsciously
gripped tighter. She didn’t speak again, because she knew Rose’s strength and dignity. Even if she was her best
friend, Rose had her own dignity she wanted to protect. And because they were friends, she wanted to respect and
uphold Rose’s dignity, not tear down the wall she built up in her heart.
She said she wouldn’t do such a thing. Then Chloe would choose to believe her. And help her.
“That’s good. I think your focus will be on the baby from now on, and you won’t have the heart to worry about him!
Let’s just leave it at that. The only thing you should be grateful to him for now is giving you a child.”
Rose took a deep breath, her face relaxed, and she let out a small laugh. “Yes, all my thoughts are on the baby
now. Men are no good!”
Chloe corrected her. “Morrison is no good.”
“There’s also a Lance.”
Rose chuckled. “You might as well just say that apart from Mr. Harper, all other men are irrelevant.”
Chloe didn’t respond.
The atmosphere gradually lightened, and before they knew it, they had arrived at the hospital.
Rose had already found a doctor; ensuring that privacy wouldn’t be breached, Rose told the doctor about Chloe’s
expected examination.
The doctor was not young and looked experienced, but when he heard that Chloe was going to check for
pregnancy, his pen slipped across the paper due to surprise.
Then the doctor lifted his head, looking very surprised at Chloe, then at her stomach.
Chloe herself had a big name in P City. At the engagement party not long ago, everyone was guessing who her
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfiancé was. The leader of a growing company, or a nouveau riche? No matter what they guessed, they never
thought it would be the CEO of the Harper Group.
How unimaginable was that possibility? Yet, the man no one even thought of, turned out to be Ms. Summers‘ fiancé.
But the engagement party that had just happened was now the talk of the town. The engagement party was held,
but the “resurrected” Yasmine suddenly appeared, broke off the engagement on the spot, and took Ms. Summers
away from the engagement ceremony.
So the marriage was called off, right? Now suddenly, Chloe was having a pregnancy check… So, if she really was
pregnant, then it would be a future heir of the Harper Group.
Chloe seemed to have anticipated the doctor’s reaction, so she calmly said, “Sorry to trouble you.”
The doctor finally recovered from his shock, and immediately stood up. Even now, he couldn’t stop thinking about
the word “heir“. “You…can follow me.” The doctor controlled all his emotions, got up and led the way to the door.
The two followed the doctor. Rose was also a bit nervous, so she tightly held Chloe’s hand, leaned in and whispered,
“I’m hoping for a daughter. Ha ha…”
Chloe helplessly said, “I’m not sure if we can tell yet…”
As they were whispering to each other, the doctor leading the way suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked at
them with a serious face.
“Let nature decide the gender of the baby, don’t get your hopes up too much. Before we do the test, I need to be
clear. You guys should brace yourselves for the possibility of no pregnancy…”
