“Sorry to keep you all waiting.” Stefan wore a faint smile as he sat down beside Renee, as if they hadn’t
just argued.
Renee red at him, but could not do anything else since they were both guests there. Finally, she just
sighed in annoyance.
and started eating.
The atmosphere at the dining table was surprisingly warm and pleasant.
Jane was nibbling a chicken drumstick, and both her hands and mouth were stained with sauce. She
looked adorable.
Renee’s heart softened when she looked at her. She was about to take a tissue paper to wipe Jane’s
hands and mouth for her.
but Stefan beat her to it. He gently wiped her mouth and said affectionately. “Greedy girl. Your mouth is
dirty.”
Renee was slightly stunned as she looked at him, a strange emotion stirring in her. She had never seen
him so gentle and
patient before. He didn’t look like the superior and aloof Stefan – he seemed quite caring now.
Her anger towards him instantly faded.
Jane broke into a smile as she looked up at Stefan and said childishly. “Uncle Stefan, you’re more
handsome than a celebrity. I’d better call you Brother Stefan instead so you’ll be a better match for
Sister Renee!”
“Hah! She definitely got that right!” Anthony and his wife burst intoughter, amused at how clever their
daughter was.
“Mr. Hunt, it seems like you love kids too. Would you rather have sons or daughters?” Anthony took a
sip of his wine and asked Stefan warmly.
Surprisingly, Stefan seemed quite rxed, and his Mr. Iceberg persona was nowhere to be seen. He
replied honestly.” Daughters are cuter and more considerate. If I had a daughter as cute as Jane. I’d
spoil her terribly. But sons are good too… They can hike, ski, y basketball, and do business with me,
but most importantly I can beat them up!” There was now at faint smile on his face, as if he was
imagining himself with his future children.
Sophia said brightly. “If that’s the case, you’ve got to have two children. Women need a few years to
get pregnant and give birth, so you guys need to hurry up!”
Anthony chimed in. “Technically, they can try to get a pair of twins of mixed genders, so they’ll have
both a son and a daughter
at the same time.”
Sophia rolled her eyes at Anthony. “Do you think people can get twins if they wish for it? It’s such a
small probability, and you’ve got to have the genes for that…”
She then looked at Stefan and asked, “Mr. Hunt, does that kind of gene run in your family?”
Stefan shook his head. “No, not that I know of.”
Suddenly, Anthony smiled, his eyes lighting up. “Ah, what a coincidence! I remember that gene runs in
Ren’s family!”
Sophia also nodded immediately. “That’s right, Ren had a twin elder brother, but he died from
strangtion of the umbilical cord around his neck right after he was born. Poor thing…”
Stefan was slightly surprised, and he looked at Renee and asked, “You had a twin brother?”
“Yes, but it’s not something my family tells outsiders.” Renee could not help but sigh. That incident had
hurt her parents very much, so her family pretended that her brother never existed. They never
mentioned him ever since then.
Renee only ever talked about it with Sophia, who was a former lecturer of Biology, for the purpose of
academic research.
“Well, it’s a high possibility for Ren to have a pair of mixed–gender twins. Mr. Hunt, maybe you could
give it a shot with Ren if you want both a son and a daughter?” Sophia suggested, eagerly trying to set
them up.
“Ahem!” Renee felt extremely awkward, so she quickly ducked her head and focused on eating.
However, Stefan appeared unaffected and said lightly, “I’ll take it into consideration.”

‘What the hell?!‘ Renee silently cursed him. “Who do you think you are? Are you a king trying to pick
your queen? Did you even
ask for my consent?‘
Anthony subconsciously nced at Ren’s slightly swollen belly and asked cheekily, “Ren, I feel like
your belly is getting bigger. Are you perhaps already pregnant with a pair of twins?”
