Chapter 617 A loooong namelist
"That's great!" exclaimed Alexander excitedly. "So, from now on, let's give our six daughters the nicknames: Sunny, Metalin, Fores, Waterlin, Flamein, and Yaoyaon."
"I'm just worried that they won't get used to it..." Ivy mumbled under her breath.
I wonder who the 12 sons take after in terms of their last name?
Curiously, Ivy flipped to the next page.
On the 12th page, the eldest son of the household: Yoseph.
On the 13th page, the second son of the household: Ashford Zikun.
On the 14th page, the third son of the household: Ashford Zixuan.
On the 15th page, the fourth son of the household: Ashford Zidollars.
On the 16th page, the fifth son of the household: Ashford Ziyi.
On the 17th page, the sixth son of the household: Ashford Zixu.
On the 18th page, the seventh son of the household: Ashford Ziyu.
On the 19th page, the eighth son of the household: Ashford Zixi.
On the 20th page, the ninth son of the household: Ashford Zikang.
On the 21st page, the tenth son of the household: Ashford Zijiao.
On the 22nd page, the eleventh son of the household: Ashford Zichen.
On the 23rd page, the twelfth son of the household: Ashford Zirui.
Chapter 617: The Nine Maternal Uncles of the Head of the Household
The names chosen for the sons were quite satisfactory, and Ivy's lips curved up in satisfaction. If it were her, she couldn't come up with a better name. Alexander saw Ivy smile and finally felt a weight lift off his heart. He was just about to tell Ivy that there was another surprise further ahead. Suddenly, Ivy pouted and half-pretended to be spoiled as she said, "Why don't our sons have my surname? Are you biased? Are you favoring boys over girls?"
"Oh my, can you not overthink it?" Alexander couldn't help but cry and laugh, "Boys take their father's surname, girls take their mother's surname. Isn't that reasonable? If you really want our sons to have your surname, then I'll go to the police station again tomorrow and have all twelve sons take the surname Foster, and all six daughters take the surname Ashford. Would that be alright?"
"Are you serious?" Ivy couldn't believe it.
"Of course I am, but..." Alexander flipped to the page of their eldest son's household registration, "Take a look at this. His name is Yoseph, it sounds smooth and gives off a sunny, optimistic, and domineering feeling. If we change his surname to Foster, he would be called Fosterzigan, which sounds a bit awkward and gives off a FosterFoster, always cool and distant vibe. With a name like that, no one would want to get close to him, and he would definitely have very few friends in the future."
Ivy...
If he didn't want their son to have her surname, he could have just said it straightforwardly. Why did he have to go through such trouble to find this excuse?
"Alright, I'll listen to you!" Ivy closed the household registration.
"Don't close it, we haven't finished reading yet!"
Alexander picked up the household registration, opened it to the page of "The Twelfth Child of the Head of the Household," and handed it to Ivy. "Keep flipping further, there's more, there's more!"
Oh? There's another little surprise?
Ivy opened it with anticipation.
Page 24, the Head of the Household's eldest maternal uncle: Song of the Sea.
Page 25, the Head of the Household's second maternal uncle: Spring of the Sea.
Page 26, the Head of the Household's third maternal uncle: Summer of the Sea.
Page 27, the Head of the Household's fourth maternal uncle: Autumn of the Sea.
Page 28, the Head of the Household's fifth maternal uncle: Winter of the Sea.
Page 29, the Head of the Household's sixth maternal uncle: Glory of the Sea.
Page 30, the Head of the Household's seventh maternal uncle: Splendor of the Sea.
Page 31, the Head of the Household's eighth maternal uncle: Wealth of the Sea.
Page 32, the Head of the Household's ninth maternal uncle: Nobility of the Sea.
What a considerate father of their children, he had even thought of names for the nine maternal uncles, and had all nine of them registered with legal identities. Ivy's hands trembled as she flipped the pages.
"Alexander... you're so good..."
Touched, Ivy threw herself into Alexander's arms.
Alexander gently stroked Ivy's hair and calmly said, "There's more at the back..."
More?
Ivy continued to look further, flipping through eighteen blank pages in a row. On the last page of the household registration, she saw Leo's name.
Page 51, the Head of the Household's cousin: Leo.
"You... you also included him?"
Ivy looked at Alexander with a conflicted expression.
Is the child's father a little silly?
This man is actually his wife's ex-boyfriend!
"He is my cousin. Besides me, he doesn't have any other relatives anymore..." Alexander said sadly.
"Is he only your relative?" Ivy curled her lips. "He still has his mother and grandmother. It's because of his mother and grandmother that you lost so many loved ones!"
Alexander sighed, "Ivy, the past is in the past. I have long since let go. Although I never liked Leo from childhood to adulthood, his nature is not bad. What's bad is his mother and grandmother.
Those two women have been sentenced to death. They will be executed in a month. I'm afraid Leo won't be able to handle the blow and do something foolish like jump off a cliff again. Since we can provide a home for Blake and his nine brothers, why not give Leo a home too? Leo also needs the care of relatives!"
"Alexander, you're really kind!"
Ivy planted a kiss on Alexander's handsome face and said satisfied, "I didn't marry the wrong person. My husband is the most handsome, wealthy, and kind-hearted man in the world!"
