Chapter 1389 You’re the One I Love the Most
"Hurry and frame it. When our daughter is born, we'll tell her that we've already seen her."
Hearing that, the rest chuckled in agreement. In his heart, Eugene was already convinced that the girl from his dream was indeed his daughter. After sending Jewel and Alex off to the airport, he took Olivia's words to heart and headed straight to the mall to purchase a frame. Naturally, he picked the most beautiful one he could find as his lovely daughter was only worthy of the best. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
As she looked at how earnestly he was taking this matter, Olivia couldn't help but find his behavior absurd yet endearing. She recalled their first encounter, where he had been distant and aloof, treating everyone around him just as coldly. And yet, time had unexpectedly transformed him, melting his icy personality and turning him into a tender husband that now radiated warmth like the warm winter sun and always stayed by her side.
"Olivia, is it lopsided?" Eugene asked as he placed the frame on the wall.
"A little higher on the left."
Eugene shifted the portrait a little. "Like this?"
Olivia nodded. "Looks good."
Eugene let out a laugh and leaped off the chair. Then, standing a little further away, he raised his gaze to look at the young girl in the portrait with a tender expression and affectionate eyes. His daughter really was lovely, and his son was incredibly skilled at drawing.
On the other hand, Olivia let out a sigh. She did not wish to burst their bubble, but she felt worried upon seeing how they were all looking forward to a baby girl.
Noticing her silence, Eugene asked, "What's wrong, Olivia?"
Olivia raised her gaze to look at him. "Would you be disappointed if this child isn't a girl?"
Eugene froze for a moment, realizing that their overwhelming affection was causing Olivia to feel pressured. Hence, he hastily rushed to her side and wrapped her in his embrace to comfort her.
"No, I won't. I'm just looking forward to it because there's nothing else for me to do. I only want a daughter because we already have four sons, but my favorite part about this child is that we made it together. How wouldn't I know that the father is the one who decides the baby's gender? So, don't feel pressured, I'll like the child no matter what. In my heart, you're the one I love the most. Regardless of their gender, the children will always come after you. If this is giving you pressure, I won't talk about it anymore. I'll take down the portrait immediately."
Olivia held onto him. "Don't take it off, just leave it. She's such a pretty girl, and even if she doesn't turn out to be our daughter, she's still nice to look at."
However, Eugene insisted obstinately, "She is our daughter. If you don't believe me, you can see for yourself once you give birth."
As Olivia fell silent, Eugene let out a laugh, thinking that he had been a little too entranced as well.

"All right, it's just a dream, anyway. You can just think of it as a normal portrait to look at."
While the two were in the midst of their conversation, a knock sounded on the door. After giving Eugene a look, Olivia said, "Come in."
She had assumed that it was the children, but when she saw that the visitor was Penny, her brows furrowed reflexively.
Feeling downcast, Penny raised her gaze to look at Eugene. "Eugene, I have something to say to Olivia. Can you leave us alone?"
Knowing that Olivia was not fond of her, Eugene asked, "What are you hiding from me?"
However, Penny felt a little awkward about his question. Although Eugene was her eldest brother, there were some things that she couldn't bring herself to discuss with him. She lifted her gaze and hesitated for a moment before she finally turned to Olivia with a pleading gaze.
Olivia wanted to stay out of Penny's matters; as she had explained to Eugene the previous night, she was being more than generous by not getting in her way. However, Penny was still her husband's sister, whom she could make an exception for.
