Chapter 529 Will Not Separate
Upon hearing the news, Sophia immediately jumped up and ran outside.
Paxon, with his short little legs, followed behind her, running and saying, "Sophia, are you gonna get me a wife with Mr. Cross?"
Joyce couldn't help but laugh at his antics.
She turned to Sebastian and said, "Looks like our future daughter-in-law might really be on her way once this is over."
Sebastian gently stroked her belly and smiled, "Even if she comes, it's too late. Our daughter is already five months along, and they don't even have a shadow of a child yet."
"Sebastian, have you thought about it? If Sophia's daughter really becomes our daughter-in-law, your daughter will have to call her sister-in-law."
"If my daughter doesn't want to, no one can force her."
"Our daughter isn't even born yet, and you're already spoiling her. I'm really worried about you."
Sebastian kissed her lips with a smile, "No matter how much I spoil her, you'll always come first. You're the most important person in the world to me."
"Alright, let's stop chatting here and go check on Alexander."
Sebastian wrapped his arm around Joyce's shoulder and walked into Alexander's hospital room.
As soon as they entered, they saw Sophia crying her eyes out.
Paxon was standing by her side, handing her tissues.
The two of them were working in perfect harmony.
Sophia would discard a tissue, and Paxon would immediately hand her a new one.
Alexander's pale lips twitched slightly, and he said hoarsely, "Sophia, stop crying. I'm still alive and kicking, aren't I? If you keep crying like this, people will think I'm dead."
Sophia glared at him angrily, "Why did you take such a risk? Do you know how dangerous that was? The doctor said you were just millimeters away from dying.
Alexander, have you thought about what I would do if you died? Why does something always go wrong just when I'm about to make up with you? Did I offend Cupid or something? Why is he targeting me like this?"
Alexander gently wiped away her tears and smiled, "It was my carelessness that got you kidnapped. In such a critical moment, I would always choose to sacrifice myself to protect you.
If the explosives had gone off, there would have been no chance for anything. But with this knife wound, there's still a chance I could survive.
I promised you that I would never let you get hurt again, and I can't break that promise."
"But you also said you wouldn't leave me. What would I do if you really died?"
Hearing this, Paxon handed Sophia another tissue and said, "Yeah, if you die, what will my wife do? So, you both have to stay safe from now on."
Sophia, who had been very upset, couldn't help but laugh at Paxon's innocent expression.
She hugged him and kissed him, saying, "Alright, I promise you, we'll both stay safe from now on."
Paxon blinked his big eyes and then looked at Alexander, "Mr. Cross, you need to get better soon. Godmother said that once you're better, she'll have my wife. I'm really looking forward to it."
Alexander's laughter made his wound hurt a bit. "You little rascal, for that comment, I'll have Sophia give birth to a daughter tomorrow."
Paxon clapped his little hands, "Awesome! I'll finally have a wife, and I won't have to compete with Dad for a wife anymore. I'm so happy."
Seeing him like this, Sebastian ruffled his hair with a smile, "Alright, if you don't leave now, your wife won't be born. Let's go home with Mom and Dad and let Sophia take care of Mr. Cross."
"But I want to be there when my wife is born. I want her to see me first when she opens her eyes."
Sebastian picked him up and patted his little butt, "It's still early. It'll be at least a year before that happens. You'll have to wait until after your little brother or sister is born."
Paxon frowned, "Does that mean I'll be in a bad spot? If Dad has a daughter, he won't want me anymore. I'll be all alone."
Joyce pinched his cheek with a smile, "You'll still have Mom. Mom will always want you."
After saying goodbye to Alexander, the family of three left.
The room suddenly became quiet.
Sophia stared at Alexander's pale face and asked, "Does the wound hurt a lot?"
Alexander nodded slightly, "Yeah, it hurts a lot, so much that I'm sweating."
"What should I do? I'll go get the doctor."
She was about to leave when Alexander grabbed her wrist.
His deep, hoarse voice sounded in her ear.
"Sophie, I miss you so much. Can you hold me?"
There was a hint of sadness in Alexander's voice, and his eyes were slightly red as he looked at Sophia.
Sophia slowly leaned into Alexander's arms and softly called, "Alexander."
Alexander gently stroked her head, "I'm here."
"Let's never be apart again, okay?"
"Okay, we'll never be apart again."
After going through life and death, they finally realized how much they loved each other.
All the past unpleasantness seemed insignificant compared to this.
Alexander gently stroked Sophia's head, his breath weak, "Sophie, my chest hurts a bit."
Sophia immediately lifted her head in fear, "I'll go get the doctor."
She was about to turn and leave when Alexander's hoarse voice stopped her, "It's normal for the wound to hurt after surgery. Calling the doctor won't help. They can only give me painkillers, and taking too many of those isn't good for my body."
Sophia worriedly asked, "Then what should we do? You can't just be in pain like this."
Her eyes were full of concern.
She had seen the knife go in with her own eyes. The wound was deep, and there had been a lot of blood.
Now the anesthesia from the surgery had worn off.
Sophia understood that kind of pain; she had experienced it herself when she was hospitalized.
Seeing her panic, Alexander smiled, "You can distract me, make me forget the pain."
Hearing this, Sophia instantly understood what Alexander meant.
She slowly leaned down and gently kissed Alexander's lips.
Then she asked, "Does this help?"
Alexander reluctantly shook his head, "I want the kind with tongue."
Before Sophia could react, Alexander's large hand was already on the back of her head, pulling her in.
He kissed her deeply.
Alexander's lips were dry and hot.
He gently bit Sophia's lips, a low, hoarse sound escaping his throat.
"Sophie, I'm sorry."
