Alexander hesitated for a long time, but finally nodded.
"Can you tell me why?" Asher Land didn't show any emotion, he just calmly asked Alexander for the reason.
"Because, because having a baby is a very painful thing, you know. Mom used to tell me that when she had me, it was really painful."
Asher Land drank his coffee while carefully listening to every word Alexander said.
"And, mom said, when she had me, it was..."
Alexander thought for a moment, then continued, "they had to cut open the stomach with a knife..."
Alexander couldn't help but frown.
Having a knife on the stomach, to these kids, it must be a very painful thing.
Asher Land suddenly couldn't understand himself, why he wanted Sophie Smith to have another child? Clearly, when she was pregnant, he saw with his own eyes the pain she endured, Alexander understood this truth, why didn't he?
He stood up, set down his coffee cup, and walked upstairs.
