The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2838

Rita grumbled, "Come on, we're practically buddies now. Isn't one meal enough? How about two, then? You know what? I'll treat you to as many meals as you want, as long as you can eat that much."

"You said it yourself. You better not go back on your word. I've recorded this conversation."

"Hmph, I'm a woman of my word!"

Little did they know that in just a month, their relationship would undergo a drastic change. They would never have moments of playfulness like this again.

As Vince accompanied Karen for her check-up, he only became truly certain that he was really going to have another baby when he held that small piece of paper in his hand. He kissed Karen's cheek in front of the doctor.

"Thank you for giving me this baby. Whatever you want in the future, I'll give it to you."

Karen blushed shyly and dodged his affection. "Come on, we've been married for so long. There's no need for such mushy stuff. Besides, everything I have is because of you. This baby is something I've been looking forward to for a long time, so I'm not only doing it for you."

Vince nodded happily. "Yes, you're right. From now on, you're the boss in our family. Whatever you say goes."

Sadie never expected her mother to get pregnant at this point, but having a son would indeed be a boon for them. Since Vince was basking in the joy of having a late-life baby, he would grant Karen anything she asked for. In other words, it would be easy for Karen to ask Vince to set Sadie up with Sherman.

Vince had not realized that Sadie was still determined to marry Sherman; he saw no compatibility between the two.

"It's been a while, Mister Sherman. You look as handsome as ever," Rita said, looking up at Sherman with a smile. However, she did not expect him to look so grim.

"Have you been busy with work? Why do you seem so upset at coming out for dinner?"

Sherman smirked. "I didn't expect you to be so shameless, Miss Rita. Anyone would be upset if they were being taken advantage of, wouldn't they?"

"What?" Rita's smile froze. She did not understand what he was talking about. "Are you mistaken about something? We agreed that I'd treat you to dinner once I was discharged. We even spoke on the phone before. This meal is on me. You don't need to pay anything."
