Madam Wants To Divorce Her Second Husband-Chapter 144

"Then I will walk by your side once again. All roads in my life will always lead to you, Winter," Sebastian said. "You don’t seem to understand that I always have the choice to leave if I want to in our previous lives after your death."

"Yes, you can..." Winter didn’t know what happened after her death. At first, she assumed that Sebastian would’ve led a happy life without her being a burden. He would probably marry another woman immediately, and then forget that Winter ever existed.

But after learning how he had suffered even worse than her, she began to wonder if it was truly okay to place the blame on him.

"Truthfully, at first, I wasn’t sure whether I loved you or not after we got married. I was contemplating my feelings for you, and it’s getting difficult for me to choose between you—the woman whom I married and eventually grew to like, and my mother, who kept reminding me that I have nobody but her in this world. That’s why I distanced myself from you, as I was afraid my feelings for you would continue to grow," Sebastian paused momentarily. That memory was so bitter that it was difficult for him to continue. "But after your death, I realized that I truly fell in love with you. I lost a woman who loved me unconditionally, and I went into a deep depression because of that until I shot myself in the chest."

"So... Winter..." Sebastian halted his step. He turned to face Winter and vowed, "Even if your love for me in this world is conditional, or even if you can’t love me as much as you love Aiden, I vowed to stay by your side no matter what. I see this second chance to mend my mistake, so WE can be together."

Winter saw the unwavering determination in his eyes. Sebastian was serious about what he just said, and it made her want to reciprocate.

"Then, I will do my best to start loving you as much as I love Aiden. You and him are both important men in my life," Winter said.

Thus, Winter and Sebastian left the cemetery after that.

Winter guessed that she would have a son as her first child, just like what happened in their previous lives. Though she didn’t mind either a boy or a girl, so she decided not to do an ultrasound as she wanted it to be a surprise once the baby was born.

Winter began to lessen her visit to the cemetery in her second trimester and stopped entirely in her third. She spent most of her time at home with her old mother.

Her bump was getting bigger and bigger, especially starting from her 36th week. Fortunately, she was still able to do everything at home normally.

Sebastian was the one who stressed out over everything, to the point that he would call at least three times a day when he was at work, on top of sending a second caregiver for her in case she needed anything.

"Do you already have a name for the baby?" Gina asked as they watched TV while waiting for Sebastian to eat dinner together. She looked at Winter’s bump and commented, "It seems to be a boy."

"Oh? How do you know, Mom?"

"Just a gut feeling. But I can see the baby is kicking just now." fгeewёbnoѵel_cσm

Winter smiled.

Her mother was right. Even in her previous lives, her baby bump was bigger than most, and the baby was very active from the start of the second trimester.

It made her happy because that meant the baby was healthy.

"I don’t have a name yet, but Seb told me that he already has two names prepared, depending on the baby’s gender later," Winter said. She rubbed her belly and muttered, "Well, I still want another child after this one. So, I’m sure none of the names will get unused for long."

"Then, I hope I live long enough to see all of my grandchildren," Gina giggled. "Oh, I can’t wait to hold them for the first time in my life."

The door was knocked and then unlocked from outside as they were watching TV. A loud, familiar voice echoed inside the penthouse, "I’m back!"

Sebastian rushed to the living room, and his eyes auto-focused on his wife, who smiled back at him.

"Welcome home, you’re early today," Winter greeted.

Sebastian took off his shoes and rushed to the sofa. He sat next to Winter and then kissed her on the cheek, "How are you doing today? All good?"

"Yeah, though the baby has been kicking more often. It makes me wonder if I’ll give birth soon," Winter said. "I’m on my 39th week."

"You could give birth anytime soon. I should probably stay at home until next week, just to be sure," Sebastian said.

"Nu-uh, I know you’re busy in the office right now. Don’t worry. I can always call the ambulance when that time comes," Winter assured.

Sebastian was still worried about his wife, but Winter didn’t want to dwell on this topic, so she asked, "How about we have dinner now? I’m starving."

"Oh, right!"

Sebastian helped his wife to get up and walk to the dining table before helping his mother-in-law. He called the caregiver who lived in the penthouse to take care of Gina, and they had dinner together.

It was late at night when Sebastian and Winter lay on the bed. They were in peaceful silence for a while before Winter asked, "Do you think I will give birth to a boy or a girl?"

"A boy. My gut feeling told me that you’d have a boy, just like in our previous lives," Sebastian replied. "Though, I’d love to have more with you in the future."

"Why don’t we put a gap between each baby? A five-year gap would be fine, right?" Winter asked.

"Yes, that would be perfect," Sebastian agreed. He placed his palm on her belly and felt a kick. "He’s feisty, unlike me. I was very obedient as a kid. I can’t wait to see you soon, champ."

Winter giggled as she allowed her husband to rub her belly until her smile suddenly faded, and she said, "Seb..."

"Yes?"

"My water just broke."
