Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 1808: Good Morning, Little Brother

She said she didn’t want this child!

Ethan Barnes’s tall figure instantly froze. This was the sentence he feared hearing the most, and now she had said it.

“Celeste, the child is innocent. It’s a small life. Could you really bear to abandon it?”

“I know all of this is my fault. I did too many things in the past that hurt you. I know that no matter how hard I try, I can’t make up for everything that happened. I don’t have the right to make you have this child for me, but please, for the sake of the child, give me this chance. I promise I’ll be a good dad.”

Celeste Linden didn’t want to hear him say these things. “Ethan, if you want a child so badly, go have one yourself. Since you can’t give birth, shut up and don’t speak. You have no right to voice your opinion here.”

Ethan Barnes, “…”

Celeste Linden forcefully closed the door.

……

Celeste Linden returned to the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

Danielle was sleeping next to her, not waking up at all. Looking at her daughter’s sweet and tender young face, she gave her a kiss.

Then she placed her hand on her own flat belly. Although she said earlier she didn’t want this child, she still felt very reluctant in her heart.

She really liked children because of the lack of love in her childhood from not having a father or mother. She longed for a family and her own children.

From the moment when she had Danielle three years ago, she vowed to be a good mother, to give Danielle everything she didn’t receive.

Danielle was her little angel, who made up for all her regrets in life.

But now, she was pregnant again.

Another little life was inside her belly.

Celeste Linden looked at the ceiling, feeling confused and conflicted inside.

At this time, Danielle rolled over and wrapped her little arms around Celeste’s neck, softly calling out, “Mommy~”

Celeste’s heart was heavily touched, softness flooding in, her eyes turning red as she replied, “Mm.”

……

The next morning, when Celeste Linden woke up, Danielle was already up. She opened the door and walked out, immediately seeing Ethan Barnes busy in the kitchen.

These past few days, he had been following her around to learn cooking skills, but when actually doing it, he was still clumsy and frantic. This morning, he was making porridge.

“Danielle, hurry and bring me the spoon. I think the porridge is about to burn.”

“I’m coming, Daddy, here you go!”

The father and daughter were quite in sync, Ethan stirring the porridge with a spoon, while Danielle stood on a small stool beside him. Ethan held her little waist to prevent her from falling.

“Wow, Daddy, the porridge isn’t burnt, it smells so good.”

“Smells good, right?” Ethan said, a bit of pride in his voice.

“This way, when Mommy wakes up, she won’t have to make breakfast. Mommy and the little brother in her tummy will have porridge to eat.”

“Danielle, how do you know Mommy’s tummy has a little brother? What if it’s a little Mimi?”

Danielle thought for a moment and then smiled confidently, “I just know Mommy’s tummy has a little brother. I really want a little brother.”

Ethan kissed this little sweetheart.

Celeste Linden stood by the door, watching the warm scene between father and daughter, her eyes gradually softening.

Then Danielle turned her head and saw her, “Mommy, you’re awake~”

Danielle got down from the stool, ran over, and gently hugged her tummy, “Good morning, Mommy~ Good morning, Brother~”
