Chapter 342: The Secret to Having Boys and Girls
"Um..."
Ivy blushed instantly, realizing that she hadn't even exchanged contact information with Alexander, yet she had just promised to help him. It felt like empty words.
Alexander casually took out two business cards and handed them to the bodyguard outside the car window. "Give these to the two people earlier and tell them to contact me if they need anything."
The bodyguard took the cards and immediately went into the civil affairs hall.
The car continued to drive slowly.
Ivy stared at Alexander's business card holder, lost in thought.
"Ivy, what are you thinking about?"
Her contemplative expression was truly charming.
"Alexander, I want business cards too!"
"You?" Alexander chuckled. "Only people with jobs need business cards. You should just focus on being a good wife to me!"
"I do have a job!" Ivy pouted.
"A job?" Alexander furrowed his brows. "You married me, the rightful heir of the Ashford family, and you still want to work? Can't I provide for you and our child?"
Ivy giggled. "It's a very relaxed job, only one day of work per week. Wait, no, half a day."
"Even half a day is unacceptable!" Alexander said forcefully.
"Why?" Ivy pouted in anger.
If she had known that Alexander would be this domineering, she wouldn't have married him. Now that they had the marriage certificate, it was truly infuriating.
Seeing Ivy's current expression, Alexander suddenly found her adorable and couldn't help but embrace her.
"Ivy, it's not that I'm being domineering, it's just that I'm worried about your health! Think about it, after we get married, it won't be long before we have our second child. You already gave birth to six in the first pregnancy, and the second one will likely be even more. It's very tiring to carry so many children, so how can you go to work again, hmm?"
"But when I was pregnant with six girls, I worked the whole time! I even did physically demanding tasks like mopping the floor and washing dishes..."
"Ivy!" Alexander suddenly hugged Ivy tightly.
The thought of the hardships Ivy had endured in the past pained his heart.
"I'm sorry, it was all my fault. You went through so much pain carrying sextuplets, and I wasn't able to be by your side to take care of you. I owe you so much..."
"Forget it, ignorance is bliss. You didn't know I was pregnant."
Thinking about the pain and suffering she had gone through in the past, Ivy felt a deep sense of melancholy. But the good thing was that everything was in the past now.
It was all over!
Alexander gazed deeply into Ivy's eyes. "I didn't know before, but now I do. How can I ignore the fact that you're about to have our second child? Ivy, listen to me, don't work, just stay in the villa and take good care of your body."
"Alexander, you speak as if I'm already pregnant." Ivy was both angry and amused. "We haven't even been together since four years ago. Our personalities haven't even clashed yet, so where is the second child coming from?"
Alexander held Ivy tighter in his arms. "Didn't we just get married today? Let's make love tonight."
"Within 24 hours, I guarantee you'll get pregnant! This time, let's try for six sons, haha."
Ivy was dumbfounded, "Are you saying we can just try and have them? Isn't it your personal decision whether we have sons or daughters?"
"Who said that?" Alexander cleared his throat. "I recently researched the secret to determining the gender of a baby. It is said that when a man takes the initiative during intercourse, a daughter is more likely to be conceived, while if a woman takes the initiative, a son is more likely. Tonight, when we make love, you must take the initiative."
"Are you kidding me? The sex of a baby is determined by this?" Ivy glared at Alexander, could it be that it's not determined by chromosomes?
Alexander shushed her and whispered, "You're right to listen to me. Tonight, if you take the initiative, I guarantee you'll have six sons!"
