I slept well last night. When I woke up, I was still in Frederic's arms.

As he was still asleep, I got up quietly. His clothes were on the chair. I picked them up and sniffed them. There was a smell of alcohol on the clothes, so he was probably drunk last night.

At this moment, my phone vibrated. My dad called me again.

I reluctantly went outside the bedroom to answer the phone.

"Syl, when did you and Frederic come back? I went to the grocery store. Your mom said she would cook by herself today!" My dad was very happy about my husband's arrival.

"Dad, Frederic and I may not come back today..." I hesitated to continue. My dad was looking forward to having a meal with Frederic.

But today Frederic had to go to the Gemini Chemical Co.. The staff there were very busy. Frederic had to go over and check on the site from time to time.

Hearing my words, my dad immediately became unhappy. "Why didn't he come back? Did you not tell him to come home? Or does he not want to come back?"

In the first year of our marriage, my parents often invited us to have a meal together, but Frederic repeatedly refused. He only briefly visited my home on my parents' birthdays or holidays.

Over time, my parents also understood what he meant. They stopped calling us back for dinner, and their dissatisfaction with Frederic grew stronger.

When I tried to use work as an excuse to dodge my dad, my phone was taken away. I turned around in shock. Frederic had woken up and was holding my phone, telling my dad, "Dad, we'll go back soon."

After he said this, my dad hung up the phone with satisfaction.

Frederic handed me his phone. Seeing me hesitate to take it, he raised an eyebrow. "What are you staring at?"

"Weren't you going to Gemini Chemical Co.?" I quickly took the phone.

"I could go in the afternoon," said Frederic, wearing a navy blue round-neck sweater that looked great against his broad shoulders. He had on a pair of black pants, showcasing a casual and relaxed style.

It was a good thing that he went home with me, so that my dad wouldn't scold or ridicule me.

After I washed up, I went to the wardrobe to change my clothes and then went downstairs. Frederic drove us back to my house.

After we arrived at my home, my parents were particularly enthusiastic. They served Frederic fruit and tea with smiles on their faces. Their decades-long relationship was almost destroyed, but Frederic helped them a lot. Unfortunately, my father couldn't investigate the matter himself because his actions were easily discovered.

I hadn't seen such a joyful atmosphere for a long time. I felt that it was good for them to be happy.

When it was almost time for lunch, I received a call from Kira. "Ms. Scott, my relative who is a doctor said he has an effective fertility technique. Several of us have gotten pregnant after seeing him. Do you still need to see him now?"

Kira was indeed very enthusiastic.

I glanced at Frederic. He was looking down, texting someone, and unaware of his surroundings.

"Okay. How about you ask him for his diagnosis and prescription for me? I'll come to your house to pick it up in a few days, is that okay?" I spoke softly.

"No problem. I'll send you the address," Kira replied.

Soon I got the address of Emilia's family, and I quickly exited the information interface, looking calm.

After dinner, Frederic told my parents that he had to go to Gemini Chemical Co.. My parents understood him and didn't try to stop him.

I wanted to stay at home for two days, so I didn't leave with Frederic.
