“Soon it will be give me a baby, Evie.”
Her lips parted. “You want more kids?”
“Did you think I wouldn’t?”
“I mean, you already have the perfect boy and girl.”
“I do, but I want to make more perfect babies with you.”
“Babies? As in plural?”
“Who knows,” I rasped in her ear, causing shivers to course down her spine. “My baby might already be inside of you.”
“Is that why you haven’t used protection?”
“Since when have we ever used protection?”
“I was on the pill back then.”
Rubbing my facial hair along her neck, I asked, “Are you implying you aren’t now?”
She giggled. “You need to behave. Your kids are around here somewhere, and they still don’t know about us.”
“And what us would that be?”
“Caleb…”
“Marry me, Evie.”
“I—”
“Caleb,” my uncle Robert interrupted, much to my disapproval.
“I’m sorry to cut in, but Tristian is losing his shit in your grandfather’s office right now.”
Our eyes connected.
“What’s going on?”
“I’ll explain on our way to his office.”
I nodded, looking over at Evie. The smile on her face quickly faded into worry.
“I’ll be right back. Don’t go anywhere, okay?”
I could sense she wanted to come with me. However, she reluctantly agreed instead. I resisted the urge to kiss her in case my kids were around.
Once we were away from her, I asked Robert, “What’s going on?”
“Your grandfather is retiring soon, and Tristian wants the company.”
“I know. What’s the problem?”
“You know your grandfather, Caleb. There are conditions.”
“Why are they discussing business during his party?”
“When are they not discussing business?”
