Chapter 470 - [Bonus ] My Baby
When Sam finally let me go, I instantly covered myself with the negligee Fabian brought me, while Sam also did the same. I looked around at my husband\'s office, cringing at the mess we made.
"Sam, how are you going to work with this mess now?" I looked back at Sam, who was tying the robe around him, standing beside his desk while I stood in front of it. "You should rest more today, though."
"It\'s fine. I\'ve done most work for today yesterday." Sam walked towards me and immediately snaked his arms around my waist. "How can I work so much when my wife just woke up? I\'m trying to be a good husband here, my love."
"Mhm. I know." I chuckled, brushing my nose against the tip of his nose. Sam smirk as he planted a kiss on my lips.
"It breaks my heart that I have to restrain myself from pinning you down right now, my wife," He breathed out, biting my lip lightly. "Our son is surely waiting for us in the dining hall. He will kill me if we make him wait for so long."
"That sounds strange coming from you."
"I\'m scared for my life, love. That\'s why I\'d been stalling." I chuckled at this joke, but then I gazed up and saw the sweats breaking out from his forehead. "I\'m not joking, Lilou. I\'m terrified for my life."
"Oh, Sam..." I didn\'t know whether to feel sorry for him or doubt he was simply exaggerating.

Sam stalled some time before we headed to the dining hall. I held his hand and lead the way while he dragged his feet. Just before we approach our destination, both Sam and I halted. I looked back at him while he averted his eyes.
\'I could feel something dark from there,\' I thought, biting my lip as I gazed at the end of the hallway to the dining hall. \'I guess Sam isn\'t joking. My poor husband... I feel sorry for him.\'
I heard Sam curse under his breath as we approached the dining hall. Out of instinct, Sam and I peeked only to see the dark shroud polluting the hall. I swallowed a mouthful of saliva, casting my husband an apologetic look.
"Am I safe?" I asked in a whisper, waiting for him to look at me.
"That\'s what you\'re concerned about? My wife, it sounds like you will be alright as long as you don\'t inflict our son\'s wrath." Sam snorted, but I didn\'t argue with him.
"I still need time with our son, Sam. Also, you\'re the one who stalled so much time. Now our son is angry because he had to eat with Adam without us," I explained, not planning to correct his previous argument. It was a fact, after all.
"My wife, I didn\'t know you are such a heartless being."
"Don\'t be a drama king. The longer he waits, the more he\'ll get furious." I slapped Sam\'s shoulder to release a bit of my nervousness. I didn\'t want to make a mistake in front of Law — at least, not for now. Sam let out a deep sigh as he nodded reluctantly.
I cleared my throat and sported a brave smile, entering the dining hall with Sam behind me. As soon as we entered, Law slowly lifted his head. My back instantly stiffened as I was frozen in place. I knew Sam also froze as I heard his light footsteps halt.
"Good morning, Mother," Law greeted me with an adorable smile, but I noticed how his eyes glinted when he shifted it to his father. "Father, good morning. I had been in the garden with Mister Fabian this morning."
I looked back at Sam while he scratched the back of his head. To save him from Law\'s wrath, the side of my lips stretched as I sauntered to the seat right next to our Law.
"Good morning, my baby," I greeted back and unhesitatingly placed a kiss on his head. "Did you have a good night\'s sleep?"
Law\'s eyes idled at his father\'s figure for a little longer before she turned his head to me. His mood instantly change when he faced me.
"Yes, mother~!" my son smiled brightly, melting my heart instantly at this cuteness. "Thanks to mother, I fell asleep peacefully."
"My son..." I patted his head, ignoring Sam even though I heard him click his tongue and murmur the unfair treatment. "What a good boy."
Law\'s face brightened up while mine relaxed. My eyes then shifted to Adam and offered a smile.
"Did his lordship also have a good sleep?" I asked, making Law turn his head toward him.
"Yes, thank you, Madam Roux." The young Earl smiled timidly. I could not help but let out a defeated sigh at how distant he addressed me.
"Adam, you should call my mother, mother, or auntie," Law suggested, and I gazed down at him. "Is that alright with you, Mother?"
"Of course, but only if there\'s no one around. He is still the Earl of Minowa, right? Adam?"
Adam pressed his lips together, but I could see how his eyes sparkled. My gosh... I wanted to adopt this boy. Law was already fond of him, so it wouldn\'t be a problem if not for our circumstances.
"Alright... auntie." Law and I looked at each other with a smile while Adam hung his head. Even though he looked down, I had noticed how his ears burned.
"Right! Mother, can Adam stay here a little longer?"
"My son, don\'t you think you should ask me for those types of questions?" My husband, who was shunned by his son, finally chimed in while stabbing the bacon on his plate. "You know your mother will refuse none of your requests."
The bright smile on Law\'s face instantly disappeared as he shifted his eyes to Sam. "I want my friend to stay here a little longer until his bruises recover."
"My son, you don\'t sound like you are asking a request but ordering me."
"Father, how dare I order you? I am simply informing you since you are the owner of the house."
"Gosh... I named you Law, but my son, have you started thinking you are actually the law?"
Law nodded with absolute certainty. "That\'s right, Father. It\'s the law of attract — "
"Pfft—!" my son halted as I could not help but burst out in laughter while covering my lips with the back of my fist. I caught Adam dart his eyes from Law and Sam and a helpless smile resurfaced on the young earl\'s face.
This type of morning… my husband and son\'s argument… I couldn\'t help but think Sam was simply arguing with the little version of himself.. And that… made me appreciate such a peaceful morning.
