Chapter 216: Would You Like To Join Me?
“Well, I want even the first few weeks of their lives to be marvelous and filled with joy. It doesn’t matter that they don’t really know what’s going on right now… I want to be able to show them thousands of pictures from their childhood when they’re older.”
Scarlett nodded her head as she touched her chin and got ready to stand up, but Francis stopped her and asked, “What are you going to do?”
Scarlett just looked back and smiled at him and said, “I want to go look for Carlos and tell him that his dad is already playing favorites.”
Francis laughed and said, “Come back.”
Scarlett retreated back on his lap and grasped his collar. “We have to treat all our children equally.”
“Carlos’s a boy, we can’t spoil him. I want him to grow into a man with strong morals and respect for women. I think it’s good for him to see his sisters being treated well in his family.” Francis said sincerely and earnestly.
“Alright, fair enough. I think it’s a difficult task to raise boys well, so I appreciate your efforts. But I almost miscarried when I had Carlos! So I don’t mind how strict you are with him, but I have to make one point clear: you have to give him the happiest childhood possible. I want him to have no worries and want for nothing. I want him to respect and care for his sisters, but not at his expense. Do you understand what I mean? Did I make myself amply clear?”
“Wow, you sound like a stern teacher. You’re leaving me with no choices here, Scarlett!” Francis laughed and said.
“Yes, well, that’s the idea. That’s exactly what I am aiming for.” Scarlett said and winked. She grabbed his collar again, kissed his cheek slyly, and then sat on his lap.
“Well, I’ll do exactly as you tell me.” Francis surrendered. The lust in his eyes was unmistakable. Although he was a man who enjoyed taking charge and being the leader in all situations, he did like it when Scarlett behaved like a domineering woman who took no crap for anyone.
Hearing Francis’s words, Scarlett felt the feeling of gladness and gratitude wash over her. She loosened her grip on Francis’s wrist readily.
“But I also have to make one point clear. Carlos is my oldest child, so he’s the one who will inherit my company. Unless, of course, he decides he wants a different future career for himself. In that case, it will be one of our daughters. Nonetheless, for the time being, the plan is that Carlos will be my heir. To determine if he’s qualified for that position, he will face some hardships and come out successful. I don’t want to raise a child who’s dependent on his parents for wealth and resources. He has to prove himself and make his own way, too.”
Scarlett folded her arms across her chest. She looked up and said, “Francis, don’t make the poor child suffer, okay? I know you have to make sure your heir is worthy, but don’t be cruel about it! We don’t know how the future is going to turn out, do we? We just have to make sure we give our kids the happiest lives.”
Francis agreed. “You’re right. That’s all we can do. That’s exactly what I intend to do, Scarlett.”

Six months later
Scarlett rubbed her tender breasts and felt a sharp pain. Right then, Francis happened to walk out of the bathroom after he was done showering. He caught the pained look on her face and asked, “Haven’t you fed the girls yet?”
“They’re both asleep. This pain is really killing me.” Scarlett moaned.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
“Why don’t you try using the breast pump? What do you think?” Francis sat himself down on the edge of the bed and reached out to hold Scarlett in his arms.
Scarlett turned around and sat on Francis’s lap. Their daughters were now half a year old, so it was time for them to move on to powdered milk. But Scarlett seemed to flush with breast milk still.
“What a waste!” she said.
Scarlett knew that breast milk was very nutritious for the baby, so she wanted to continue to feed her daughters with it. She poked Francis and said, “Go and get the breast pump here. I want to get some milk and put it in the fridge.”
Francis went out and fetched the breast pump. And then Scarlett got ready to unbutton her clothes to start sucking and then gave a glimpse at Francis and said, “Well, though I didn’t ask you to turn around, could you stop staring at me like that?”
Francis was embarrassed. Scarlett blushed and changed the subject immediately in order to avoid any awkwardness, “Have you come up with names for the babies?”
“Do you have any good ideas?” Francis asked, with his chin on Scarlett’s shoulder.
“How about Brittany and Shannon?” Scarlett said after a while of thought.
“Why?” he asked.
“Because they are twins and these two names are alike. They sound great together. What do you think? I like the sound of them.” she said.
“Yeah, they do sound nice as a pair… I like it. Let’s do it.” He responded with zeal.
After their conversation, Scarlett stood up and got ready to go take a shower in the bathroom. But before she headed to the bathroom, she removed all her clothes in front of Francis. As she headed for the bathroom, she turned around and winked at Francis lustily.
“Would you like to join me?”
As he heard Scarlett’s words, Francis’s eyes lit up. He smiled mischievously and then walked towards Scarlett slowly, like a panther stalking its prey. He then grabbed Scarlett’s waist and lifted her up. He bit Scarlett’s butt cheek and made a growling sound. Scarlett shrieked and said, “Be gentle! What do you think you’re doing?” They both laughed gleefully.
It was, to say the least, a shower to remember. The showering together took them almost an hour and a half to finish. They have spent a pleasurable moment that they missed after a couple of months that Scarlett had given birth.
