Autumn Frost

Chapter 5

Grayson's pov

The scene before got me stretching my mouth so wide that it hurts.

Inside our bedroom, Myra and Jessica were cuddling on Qiu Shuang, while the angel slept peacefully, her mouth slightly opened, the storybook she was reading to the girls was lying on her stomach.

If we had children, this would be what I'd love to see when I come home from work.

My lovely wife with my kids.

Vivian poked her head through the door. "Gray? Have you seen....oh. "

She came in and stood next to me, smirking. "So....she's the one eh?"

I almost choked on my saliva.

"Oh come on! She IS the one, is she not? I can see it by the way you look at her, Grayson. "

I didn't reply my sister. What if she was the one, but she doesn't accept me or my past?

I don't want to make conclusions when I'm still stuck at the aim to make her fall in love with me.

Vivian's smirk widened as she went over to the bed and woke the children up quietly.

Myra and Jessica, still in a sleepy state, woke up and followed their mother while mumbling their goodbyes to me.

I waved them goodbye as Vivian shut the door close.

"Grayson..." Qiu Shuang called out softly.

"Yes honey?"I turned my vision back thio her.

Her eyes were closed, she was still sleeping.

She said something else under her breath but I can't make out the words she's saying.

After staring at her angelic face for a few seconds, I went in the bathroom to take a bath.

Will she ever love me?

I guess not.

Qiu Shuang's pov
It had been a month since I met the twins.

And a lot had happened. Serious shit is on.

And by serious shit I meant Tovi and Odette were both pregnant.

Yes, both women experiencing nausea, morning sickness, and endless naps everyday.

I feel pity for the babies.

I have a bad feeling that one of them would die unfortunately.

The Chinese dramas started to pop up in my head. The queen sticking out a leg 'unintentionally' to trip a pregnant concubine, so that her baby will die and she would never get a higher rank within the thousands of concubines and the king's kind treatment to his pregnant wives.

I hope this wouldn't happen in here.

Even if it does, I hope I would be in time to stop it.

But their attitude was worse than before. Before they were pregnant, they would at least acknowledge each other's presence.

But now, it's a disaster.

Every single morning, you could hear them arguing really fiercely. I wasn't interested with what they were arguing about, but from Lilian's blabbermouth, I knew they were arguing over the babies.

Something like 'Grayson will love this kid more!' or 'That child isn't Grayson's for sure!' or even 'I will kill you!'

Yikes.

Best not involve myself between the both emotional pregnant ladies.

And Grayson being the usual him, went to work but the amount of time he spends with me, Zalika, Angelyn and Akilah is more than the time he spends with the pregnant ones.
