Chapter 408 Eagles Do Not Breed Doves

Nathan nodded, looking amused. "I'm not kidding. Nacy called this afternoon. We can't let them take the first move, can we?"

A smile crept onto Mandy's lips as her gaze flitted to her stomach. She caressed it tenderly and grabbed Nathan's arm and placed it on top of her flat stomach. "That is not going to happen, we have this."

Nathan knelt and smiled at Mandy's belly. "Yes, Baby. You must be good while you're in your mommy's belly. Otherwise, your daddy might have to teach you a lesson when you come out." He chuckled.

Mandy slapped his hand away and hugged her belly protectively. "Hey, how can you say that?" she asked in mock horror.

"I was just kidding." Nathan lifted his arms innocently.

"What if our son becomes afraid of us?"

"Eagles do not breed doves. My son would be as brave as his father," Nathan said, puffing his chest proudly.

"How do you know that it is a boy? What if it is a girl?"

"Didn't you say that? That you were carrying my son?"

"Well, that was just a casual statement." Mandy chuckled, biting her lips.

As they continued to chat, the elevator came to a halt, and the door opened.

Mandy bit her lips nervously when she saw her parents' apartment. She smiled at Nathan, who looped his arms with hers reassuringly as they rang the doorbell.

Mandy was squirming nervously on the spot and was surprised by Nathan's calm demeanor.

The door opened, and Madeline greeted them with a smile.

"Mom."

"Hello, Auntie."

Nathan and Mandy chimed in together. Their voices blended in harmony, forming a beautiful medley.

"Mand, Nathan? Come on in." Madeline stared at the two of them before tugging them into the foyer.

Madeline had despised Nathan before but had slowly warmed up to him because of her daughter. Mandy was crazy about him, and she couldn't help but accept him.

Moreover, it turned out that Nathan wasn't as bad as she tho

o watch the CEO of JS International wash the dishes like a dutiful husband. He never bothered to even drop his empty plate in the sink when he was at the villa.

"What are you laughing at?" Nathan asked as he handed the cleaned dishes to Mandy for her to wipe. Although Nathan did not like her doing any work, Mandy being the adamant girl she was, had joined him to help.

Mandy covered her mouth and continued to laugh.

"Well, it's funny to watch you do household duties." Her face was flustered with happiness.

"What's so funny about it? These are survival skills you know?"

"Oh, yeah? Then why do you never do this at the villa?" Mandy asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Well, we have Lillian for that."

"Oh, come on, admit it. You are too lazy to do all of this." Mandy chuckled.

"What can I do? I live with a big lazybones all the time. That is why I become lazy." Nathan smiled and winked at Mandy.

Mandy folded her arms across her chest. "Who is this lazybones? Who is this lazybones that you are talking about?"

''Who else would it be? She is staring at me right now." Nathan washed the last dish on the sink and turned off the tap before drying his hands with a towel. He wrapped his arms around Mandy's waist and ushered her to the hallway.
