There He Is Again, My Ex-Husband (Julian and Amelia)

Chapter 1079 It Would Be a Daughter

Cara was angry and on the verge of tears because of what Phil had done, but she did not want to cry to

Phil over the phone, which would only make her look weak. Over the years she had been bullheaded

and tough and did not know how to show weakness.

What she did not know was that women showing weakness in front of men at the right time would

arouse their sympathy, and thus make them more considerate, understanding, and faithful.

Phil certainly felt her reluctance. He did it deliberately, as Cara expected.

He then said, "Would you rather keep your pride than spend the rest of your life in prison?"

As he said, things would be serious enough if she called him again. He would not call it quits on it that

easily. He would make Cara no longer feel superior in front of Anya and show her how important Anya

was to him.

Cara compromised, "Give me her phone number."

Phil said lightly, "Asking for her forgiveness on the phone is not sincere at all, is it?"

It meant that he wanted Cara to go to Anya and beg her face to face.

Cara was furious, "Now I see why people say that men will stop being nice to their mothers when they

have wives."

Phil's tone was indifferent, "Cara, with all due respect, you have never treated me as a son and I have

never regarded you as a mother as well. It's neither necessary nor useful for you to criticize me on the

moral high ground."

"What I'm demanding is simple, know your position and live your own life."

Phil hung up the phone after saying these words, not bothering to say a single needless word to Cara.

He had finished what he wanted to say, and it was up to Cara to decide.

Phil didn't say anything to Anya after he went upstairs, for he wasn't sure if Cara would really come to

visit Anya personally.

After dinner, Anya felt that her legs were on the mend after staying at home for a whole day, so she

planned to go for a walk. The doctor had previously advised her to do moderate exercise after the first

few months of pregnancy so that she could have an easy delivery.

Phil would be with her if she wanted to take a stroll, but Anya did not want to walk with such an eye-

catching man. Yet she knew that he could not let her go downstairs by herself, so she simply took a

mask out and put it on him, covering his excessively handsome face.

After thinking for a moment, she turned around to get Phil's gold-rimmed glasses and put them on him,

trying to cover his deep-set eyes. Phil was slightly nearsighted and he did not wear glasses normally,

except for working.

However, Anya knew she made a mistake when she found that Phil in a pair of glasses and a mask

was more attractive. Besides, the mask added mystique to him, making others fix their eyes on him.

Anya could only take off his glasses and mask. Then she helplessly took her fisherman's hat and mask

to fully disguise herself.

Since he was striking in any way, she could only disguise herself.

Regardless of how much attention he would get, she was okay with it as long as she wouldn't be

recognized.

Phil was both annoyed and amused, "Does either of us have to be so sneaky?"

"Of course, I have to." Anya said without thinking, "I'm pregnant now. I don't have a good shape or look

elegant. I'm afraid I'll be the envy of the town and hated by everyone when walking with an outstanding

man like you."

It was unpleasant for Phil to hear the first half of her words. He raised his hand to hold Anya's

shoulders, "You have never been unpresentable in my eyes."

"In the past, I rarely took you out to social intercourses because I knew you didn't like them and I didn't

want to force you."

"Now, I never think you have a bad figure or bad temperament. Even when you're pregnant, you're the

best-looking pregnant woman."

Once Phil finished, he looked at her very sadly and said, "Anya, it seems like you are the one who

always despises me, while I've never disliked or cold-shouldered you."

Hearing this, Anya actually felt that what he said did make sense.

It was true that she always despised him or picked on him. For example, she would despise his old

age, nasty personality, or something else. At the very beginning of their days, she found faults with him

daily.

Yet, she just said things she didn't mean to provoke him. Now he brought it up, which made Anya feel

guilty. She urged to conceal her guilt, "Hurry! Let's go out."

After saying that, she left first. Phil then said quietly behind her, "You just said I'm an outstanding man,

and I'll take it as a compliment."

Anya was speechless.

Hearing his words, she couldn't help but stumble. He was indeed thick-skinned.

Anya gritted her teeth and continued to step forward, ignoring his words.

They went downstairs and started to walk slowly along the road side by side, Phil was enjoying such

romantic strolls at night.

Their relationship was known to all in Chiobar, or to be specific, their relationship had much exposure

because he was too famous. Anya received so much criticism at that time that she extremely resisted

showing up with him in public.

Let alone going out for walks, having meals, and watching movies.

If he wanted to invite her out to dinner, either he had to choose Ezra's restaurant, which could give

them privacy, or some ordinary restaurants which were cleared out in advance.

"Have you ever thought about the baby's name?" Phil started a conversation about their baby's name.

Anya shook her head, "Not yet, as I'm not sure of its gender."

In fact, Anya lied. She did think about the baby's name. She didn't know other expectant mothers' ways

of thinking, but she had thought about the baby's name since she knew she was pregnant.

An affectionate address could make it much easier for her to talk to the baby in her belly from time to

time.

But she didn't want to tell Phil that she had thought about it. If she did, Phil would definitely ask about it,

and she couldn't tell him that she wanted the baby to be surnamed Willigen.

At that time, she did not want Phil to know the existence of the baby, so naturally, she wanted the baby

to take her surname.

Now that Phil knew the existence of the baby and liked the bay so much, she reckoned it would be

better to let the baby take his surname.

Although Phil had only stayed with her and the baby for a short time, she could still feel his love and

affection for the baby, so it was okay to let the baby take his surname.

Anya felt that he would be a good father. If he was unreliable, Anya would not make such a decision

anyway.

"I think it would be a daughter," the man said with certainty after hearing her words.

Anya didn't know what to say.

She didn't want to admit at all that she also felt that it would be a daughter.

She was on the same wavelength as him, which she found very annoying.
