“There’s some progress at 408. Please come back soon so that we can start the mission.”
“Alright, please wait until I return. I need to stay over for one more day, and I’ll be back after that.”
Richard sat up straight.
After the call ended, a hunting intent flashed across his eyes. The conversation was about an
international organized crime group, and they were not an ordinary gang since they were involved with
highly classified weapons.
They specialized in stealing, and they had stolen the research results and blueprints of a high-end
weapon this time. They were looking for buyers everywhere, and Richard’s team had been tracking
them for almost half a year.
Meanwhile, Anastasia was having a video call with her son in the room. Jared had his face stuck so
close to the screen that his chubby cheeks filled the screen. He looked so adorable that she wanted to
give him a kiss.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Anastasia, I’ll take care of Jared for you while Elliot and you work on having baby number two.” Nigel’s
voice could be heard in the background.
It flustered Anastasia as it felt awkward to talk about having another baby in front of Jared.
“Nigel, you should be the one working hard. Do you need me to introduce some girls to you?”
Anastasia fought back.
“Sure, but I’ll only consider those who are prettier than you.”
“Most of them are prettier than me.” Anastasia laughed.
Just then, their conversation was interrupted by Elliot. “What are both of you talking about?”
She immediately tensed up, for this husband of hers got jealous easily and could not stand hearing
such words.
“Nothing. We are just chatting.” Nigel
laughed as he tried to change the topic.
“Do you guys think I didn’t hear what the both of you were talking about?” Elliot murmured.
“Daddy, Mr. Nigel is asking both of you to give me a sister and Mommy was asking him to quickly find
himself a girlfriend,” answered Jared.
“Great! Mommy and I are working hard on it!” Elliot seemed proud as he looked at his son from the
screen.
Hearing that, Anastasia instantly turned around and glared at him, reminding him to be more reserved
in front of their son since he was still young. She had never told Jared about how both males and
females were involved in creating a baby as she thought that he was too young to comprehend it.
Elliot then smiled as he tried to explain to Jared, “I’m saying that it depends on your Mommy since she
has a say in whether she wants to have another baby or not.”
Anastasia stared at Elliot after listening to his explanation and hinted at him to switch the topic.
“Jared, have you been completing your homework on time?” Elliot, who got the message, immediately
changed the topic.
“Daddy, don’t worry about my homework! I’ll make sure to complete them,” Jared responded

Nigel, who was dressed in tennis apparel, appeared in front of the screen and said, “Let’s talk some
other time as I need to send Jared to his tennis class. I shall look
forward to both of you buying me meals when you’re back since it’s not easy being a nanny.”
“Thanks for your hard work, Nigel.” Anastasia laughed.
“Let’s go, Jared!” Nigel called out as he smiled at the camera.
“Goodbye, Daddy and Mommy.” Jared waved at the camera and ended the call. It seemed like he
really enjoyed spending time with Nigel.
After that, Anastasia left the iPad on the couch and said, “I don’t know why, but I’ve been feeling
constantly tired these days.”
When Elliot heard that, he sat next to her and stretched his arm out so that she could lean on it. “Take a
nap. I must have kept you awake last night.”
“You’re not shy to admit to it.” She rolled her eyes at him.
“What’s there to be embarrassed about since we are now legally married?!”
