Chapter 639 - World of Two People
Chapter 639 of "No Trespassing! My Aloof Brother" opens revealing the plot: Christopher Scott listened to Maya Spencerâs reproach and said indifferently, "How did I not give... Discover what happens!
Christopher Scott listened to Maya Spencerâs reproach and said indifferently, "How did I not give her face? I wasnât mean to her. You know what your sister is like. If Iâm nicer to her, sheâll definitely overthink it. Iâm just hoping sheâll move on soon and stop wasting her time."Christopherâs words made sense, but Maya felt heartache, so she pouted and rolled her eyes at him, snatching the chocolate from his plate.
Not far away, Sophia Bennett watched the interaction between Christopher and Maya, feeling a sour twinge in her heart. She wasnât jealous of their good relationship, but because she knew Mayaâs eye-roll meant she hadnât succeeded in persuading him, which made her a little sad.
After enjoying the cake, there was some time left before dinner, so everyone played games at the club.
Maya took the little kid from the arms of the Owen familyâs servant and played with him.
So, a few women gathered together to entertain the child.
"Little one, call me aunt, and Iâll give you a big red envelope," Maya said with a smile, leaving a kiss on the little oneâs face. Ever since Noah Owen had a child, she often visited their home to help play with the child.
"Giggle...giggle..." The little one laughed heartily after being kissed by Maya.
"So happy, you like me so much, why donât you call me auntie!" The little one laughed at Maya, and she blossomed with a smile.
"Mom..." However, the little one looked at her and called her mom.
"Hahaha..." His calling Maya mom made everyone laugh.
Immediately, Maya cheerfully said to Noah, "Noah, your son has betrayed you. He doesnât want you as his mom; he wants me as his mom."
"Little one, turning your elbow outward, deal with him tonight," Noah said while making formula for the little one.
At the card table, Liam Spencer heard Mayaâs joyous voice, and his heart filled with a bit of sourness.
In the past year, he and Maya had tried hard, but they still hadnât conceived. He knew that even though Maya was having fun now, after parting with the little one in the evening, she would feel down again.
More than the child, Liam cared about Mayaâs emotions. For him, nothing was more important than Mayaâs happiness.
However, he couldnât stop Maya from liking children, nor could he prevent her melancholy. Even though he urged her many times, Maya said it was fine, but the hint of sadness in her eyes could not be hidden.
Thinking about these things, Liam couldnât focus on the game, so he called Hudson Moore to take his place.
He then leisurely walked over to the group of women and quietly sat beside Maya, reaching out his right hand to stroke her little face.
Maya felt the warmth of Liamâs fingertips, holding the little one in her arms, quickly turned around, and smilingly asked, "Third Brother, why arenât you playing cards?"
Liam, hearing Mayaâs question, stroked the little oneâs face again and explained, "Their card skills are too poor, so I came to keep you company."
The little one in Mayaâs arms, seeing Liam touching him, grinned at him and excitedly exclaimed, "Daddy!"
The little oneâs call of daddy melted Liamâs heart. He really wanted to hug and kiss the little one, but he suppressed his excitement.
He feared that his affection for the child would make Maya feel worse and think too much, so he just stroked the little oneâs face and calmly said, "Little rascal, your mouth is really sweet."
"Third Brother, look how much little Charlie can sweet-talk." Maya was overjoyed hearing the little one call Liam daddy and her mommy, yet she felt a bit of sorrow, thinking how wonderful it would be if she could have a child or two for Liam.
Before, Maya always wanted to have a bunch, but with no progress for over a year, she didnât dare to dream too big. If she could have one, she would be content.
When Noah came over with the milk bottle, he resignedly shook his head, took the little one from Mayaâs arms, and said, "Liam, Maya, shouldnât you two get on with it now that Seven Murray is pregnant and Ella is married? You should hurry so the kids can grow up together and have fun."
Noah didnât know Mayaâs inner turmoil, thinking they hadnât had a wedding, so they werenât planning for children. Besides, Maya had just turned 24 today, still quite young, and everyone thought they just wanted to enjoy a couple more years of married life.
"Uh-huh! Got it!" Maya listened to Noahâs suggestion and glossed over it with a smile, but a few worries lingered in her heart, as she wasnât too keen on marrying Liam.
Actually, it wasnât that she didnât want to marry Liam, but she wanted to wait until she got pregnant before having the wedding. As long as she wasnât pregnant, she felt uneasy, fearing that when she had an abortion five years ago, she might have hurt her body, affecting future pregnancies. So every time Liam brought up marriage, she dodged the topic.
Liamâs feelings for her were clear, and even if she couldnât have children, he would still marry her. Yet she didnât want to burden Liam like that, and neither dared to go to the hospital, fearing that if the results werenât what they hoped, Liam might not be able to hold onto her, so he pretended to be oblivious.
Liam sat beside her, watching Mayaâs awkward smile, hugged her with a smile, and said rather pitifully, "Maya, saying you know means you canât take it back."
"No, once you propose in a way that moves me, Iâll marry you." In a blink, Maya reneged again, feeling intense pain inside.
"Little one, what should I do to move you?" Liam wasnât a romantic person and felt awkward making a grand gesture just to please Maya.
He believed in a simple, steady happiness and felt that love was a matter between two people. As long as Maya understood his goodness, he didnât care about othersâ opinions on his love.
Actually, as to why Maya hadnât agreed to marry him yet, Liam understood inside but dared not address it outright.
"Alright, you two, stop being so sappy here. Maya, youâre still young, but Liam is already 30. He should settle down and have children," Noah had been hearing Charlotte Owen gossip about this matter recently, so he took the chance to nag Maya.
"Okay! I understand." Maya cautiously agreed, but still didnât give a definitive answer.
"Third Brother, dinner is ready." Asher Norton, seeing Noah urging for marriage, informed everyone it was time to eat, creating a diversion for Liam and Maya.
Maya, hearing it was time to eat, immediately beamed with joy, thinking she could finally escape Noahâs nagging.
However, just as she was about to stand, Liam suddenly grabbed her wrist, knelt before her on one knee, and earnestly looked at her.
Startled by Liamâs action, Maya quickly pulled him and said, "Third Brother, what are you doing? Get up."
But Liam held her small hand, raised it to his lips, gently kissed it, and said, "Maya, will you marry me?"
