Prosperous Marriage: Married to My Brother-in-law-Chapter 642 Rachel Gives Birth to a Daughter (2)_1

"There would be no more of it. After he had retaliated with concrete actions—costing his own company tens of millions and enraging his mother to the point of nearly having a stroke—they had another huge argument. If his mother still hadn’t learned her lesson after all that, she would truly be a fool."

Glades Horne gave a faint smile but said nothing more.

The red Audi stopped in front of the Hughes Family’s villa, and a tall figure stood in front of the car, silently watching the house without making a move.

James Horne ruffled his hair in annoyance. How frustrating!

He knew he had scared her.

She was a very pure girl.

Over the past few days, he had spent a long time thinking. He felt he had taken advantage of Rebecca Hughes and that it was necessary to give her an explanation. Even though the person he still loved in his heart was Julia, he didn’t dislike Rebecca either.

He really wanted to ask someone for advice on what he should do right now.

He took out his phone and, almost without thinking, as if by instinct, he dialed a number.

"Hello, James, what’s up? Is there something wrong?" Julia’s gentle and clear voice came through, accompanied by the sound of a child crying. It was probably Ivan causing a major commotion again.

Julia? Why had he called Julia? In his heart, Julia always came first, so he had dialed her number instinctively.

"Julia," James lowered his voice and called her name. But he didn’t know what he could possibly say to her.

The love and affection he felt were things he could no longer express.

She was living a very happy life now, with a husband who cherished her and an adorable son. If he voiced even a fraction of his feelings, it would disrupt her happiness, and that was something he was unwilling to do.

"James, have you run into some trouble? You can tell me. If I can help you in any way, I definitely will," Julia said good-naturedly, her voice gentle and clear. Her words struck a chord in James’s heart, making the sun in the sky seem extraordinarily beautiful to him.

"I think... Rebecca and I had a bit of an unpleasant incident, and I don’t know what to do," James finally voiced the question he had wanted to ask her advice on.

Bright laughter transmitted over the line; Julia sounded very happy.

He could tell she was very happy.

"James, how far have things progressed between you and Rebecca? The way to resolve your conflict depends on that," Julia said with a light laugh. Even though her son was crying incessantly in her arms, her mood was exceptionally good because James was finally beginning to move on from his infatuation with her.

"We... Anyway, I hurt her, and I don’t know what to do about it."

"Ha, you should coax her and apologize to her. You’re so smart; you’ll definitely be able to think of a solution. Oh, James, I’m sorry, Ivan, this little guy just won’t stop crying, and neither the nanny nor I can handle him. I need to ask your brother for help, so I have to go now. Just remember, if you’re sincere, Rebecca will definitely forgive you. You can do it, James!"

Julia hung up after speaking.

James stared at his phone in a daze. "You can do it?" Was she encouraging him to pursue Rebecca? Did she think he and Rebecca were in a romantic relationship? His heart ached a little, and a touch of bitterness welled up.

Looking at the Hughes Family villa again, the image of Rebecca’s tear-streaked face flashed through his mind.

His heart seemed to ache even more intensely.

He stepped away from the car, moved forward, stretched out his hand, and rang the doorbell.

By the time he realized what he had done, the Hughes Family’s servant had already heard the doorbell and come out from inside. He had no choice but to bravely enter the Hughes home to apologize to Rebecca.

No matter the outcome, good or bad, he had taken advantage of her, and he would take responsibility.

「Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, another month had passed.」

「October arrived, known as golden autumn.」

The weather in October wasn’t as hot as in July. It brought cool breezes and even a hint of cold in the evenings, almost as if one could smell the scent of winter.

Ivan Horne and Jimmy Horne, the two young masters, were now three months and one week old.

At three months, babies tend to turn over; at six months, they sit; and by nine months, they start to crawl.

Both little guys couldn’t keep still and were full of mischievous energy. Before they were even three months old, they had begun to try rolling over. After reaching three months, both could do it.

When they were laid down on the bed, they would first look at the ceiling, then turn their heads to look around. Within a minute, they would start trying to roll over. In the blink of an eye, they could flip themselves over onto their stomachs on the bed. However, being just over three months old, while they could roll over, they didn’t yet have the strength to prop their upper bodies up. If not carefully watched, it was very easy for them to get stifled.

As the babies grew, Julia would take time every few days to check in at the company and handle some important issues. Adele, who was already working at Julia’s company, also went back to the office with her. Their relationship as sisters-in-law had grown even closer due to having children at the same time and because Julia treated Jimmy as her own, almost like they were sisters.

Seeing the harmonious relationship between the two, Mila Anderson marveled at Julia’s people skills.

Ruby Bluen, after getting pregnant, didn’t show any signs of morning sickness, which made Julia and Adele, who had become mothers, very envious as they had had a terrible time with it.

Marcel Horne had already returned to the military, but he always found time to come home to accompany his beloved wife.

Ruby could truly say that after a period of hardship, she had finally seen the dawn.

The love and care Marcel gave her were no less than what Glades gave to Julia.

Mila Anderson and Gian Horne, the old couple, were still embroiled in a dispute over their divorce. Mila was adamant about it, while Gian staunchly refused. Because the grandmother stood in the way, Mila had been unable to file a divorce petition with the Courtroom. She also found it impossible to communicate with Gian privately. While Gian was repentant, he ceaselessly tried to please Mila, hoping she would change her mind.

Every day, he would accompany Mila to the beauty parlor. Even if Mila treated him as if he were invisible, he still diligently attended to her every need, like a lackey.
