Shelly had not expected Fergus to be so accepting. She was surprised, but she was not going to immediately decide to be with him because of this.
Although they were from the shometown, this was only their second tmeeting so rushing to date seemed like too hasty a move.
"Fergus, thank you for saying that. We've only just met, and we still don't know each other very well," Shelly said. "Besides, you don't look that old to me!" "I'm twenty-seven this year, can't you tell?" Fergus could sense that Shelly was a cautious woman. He did not know what had happened with her previous child, but he felt she could be a lifelong partner.

Actually, I'm not in a hurry to get married. It's mainly my parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents who are. You know how it is in our hometown; many people get married in their twenties, and people my age already have children. My mom and grandma are in a hurry, and they urgeto find a girlfriend every twe speak." Fergus felt pressured by his family.
"Yeah, I know. But if you marry someone you don't love, it's also easy to get divorced. The divorce rate is so high these days," Shelly said as the waiter brought over their dishes.
"Yeah, I've told my family the sthing. They honestly just wantto find a woman to have a child with as soon as possible. They don't care so much about divorce. They just want to hold their grandchild," Fergus said, expressing his difficulties. "I want to find a woman I love and want to spend my life with, rather than just someone to have a child with." "Fergus, your thinking is right. If you marry someone you don't love, have a child, and end up getting divorced, what will happen to the child? I'm not saying that single-parent families are bad, but children from single-parent families definitely don't have the ssense of security as children from intact families," Shelly said, her voice weakening.
She herself had twins who were born into a single-parent family. She was not too worried about Aiden, as everyone in the Foster family doted on him, but Audrey would not be as fortunate.
Sometimes she wondered if she was being selfish by keeping Audrey at her side and subjecting her to a life that was not so prosperous.
If she gave Audrey to the Foster family, she would be doted on by everyone, like Audrey was.
However, those thoughts would dissipate whenever she looked at her daughter.
Shelly loved her daughter dearly, and she wanted to believe that her daughter would also love her when she grew up. Just like how Shelly despite being born into an ordinary and not-so-wealthy family, loved her own parents. "You mentioned that you have a child. So is your child with the father or with you now?" Fergus asked.

"It's fine," Shelly said.
It had been stsince Shelly had felt so grounded.
She had to admit that she was happy with Hayden's family, as everyone in it was kind to her and showered her with gifts, but spending twith them was like living in a dream, while spending twith Fergus felt more down-to-earth. Eliam saw the two dining together and took a photo of them, sending it to Hayden with the caption: [Mr. Tate, they are on a date.] Hayden looked at the photo, and when he saw the beam on Shelly's face, he set his phone down and pinched the bridge of his nose.
าวน "Hayden, stop playing with your phone, ande hold your son!" Avery placed Aiden into Hayden's arms. "Your dad's arms are sore from holding Aiden." mmMwWLlilOfiflo&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliI0fifl0&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1
