After returning to the apartment, Rachel filled up the bath and patted Josh. "Baby, you must be tired today. Quick, take a bath and go to bed."
Josh nodded and went into the bathroom.
After changing into matching pajamas, Josh walked out and into Rachel's arms while she kissed him.
Josh tried to remain calm but the blush on his face quickly betrayed him.
Rachel chuckled. "Oh, baby, why are you constantly shy today?"
"Go to the bed, I'll be right there in a minute."
Josh was a little surprised. "Are we sleeping together?"
Rachel nodded seriously. "That's right! Why, do you not want to sleep beside me now that you've grown up?"
She pouted deliberately.
Josh waved his hands shyly. "Nope, I–I understand, I will go to–to the bed and wait for mommy."
He immediately ran into the room red-faced.
At the sight of Josh's shyness, Rachel shrugged. "This child..."
In the room, Josh leaned against the wall, embarrassed, and slowly slid down to the floor.
He had been sleeping alone since he was one-year-old, so it was understandable that he would be timorous!
Ding— His phone lit up.
Seeing the phone number on the new text, Josh squinted.
'Isn't this my phone number?'
"How was the amusement park tonight?"
The caring message by Ziggy made Josh smiled.
So, he typed on it slowly. "Thank you. I had a really good time!"
"As long as you're happy. I will go to school to meet up with you, let's sneak away together! We'll skip class!”
Josh was stunned. "Skipping class? Are you sure we should do that?"
"Of course! Didn't you want to investigate our history? We're going to do the paternity test tomorrow!"
Josh pressed his lips together. "We're just two kids, will the people in the hospital allow us to do the paternity test?"
"Don't worry! I have an idea!"
He lowered his gaze, unsure why Ziggy could always bring him comfort. "Okay!"
"Don't you dare fall in love with mommy! Mommy is mine! Also, I taught Rue a lesson and got you revenge, so don't let other people bully you anymore, you hear?"
Josh was slightly unnerved by that. "What did you do to mother?"
"Nothing, it was just a verbal warning. Josh, let me tell you this. Just for this face that we both share, you can't let anyone else bully you, okay? I won't allow it!"
Josh read the rather heartwarming message and replied, "I know."
"Baby, are you still on your phone at this hour?" Rachel walked in.
Josh hurriedly put his phone aside. "No, I'm not."
Rachel laid on the bed and took Josh into her arms. "Let's sleep, alright. Goodnight, baby."
She kissed him on his forehead again.
Josh blushed again, but he returned the hug that Rachel gave with full satisfaction.
When Rachel's breathing finally slowed down, Josh opened his eyes slightly as he looked at the elegant woman in front of him.
Ziggy looked at the lit study with countless contracts on the table. "Father, it's already so late, are you still working?"
Edward nodded lightly. "Mm. Why do you ask?"
"You must have worked so hard," said Ziggy sincerely.
After Ziggy's comment, Edward was a little embarrassed.
He turned away stiffly as he felt his face redden.
He only wanted to stay up late and finish some workload for the next day so he could come home sooner to see his son.
Ziggy grinned. "Are you worried about my spot check, father?"
Edward shook his head seriously. "How would I? I have nothing to fear, for I am innocent."
Ziggy sat on the sofa with his pillow like a tiny adult.
"I can't sleep, but since you need to work, I shall accompany you."
Edward immediately approached Ziggy, and before Ziggy could react, Edward had carried Ziggy and his pillow in his arms.
In the next moment, Ziggy and the pillow were placed on the soft bed.
Seeing Ziggy trying to get up, Edward held his shoulder down. "No, children must not stay up late."
Ziggy huffed in retaliation. "Father, I am not a child! I'm a grown-up!"
Edward nodded weakly. "Fine, fine, you're a grown-up, okay."
Seeing that Edward was preparing to get up, Ziggy caught his chilly big hand.
"Father, you said I must not stay up late, so as my father, you shouldn't too."
