Hellbound With You novel Chapter 707

Chapter 707 Congratulations

"Don’t bother him." Zeke told Kai and Kai just sighed again. He thought for a moment that Zeke would leave but to his surprise he did not. Zeke just sat there with them quietly and Kai knew his presence there was making Alex somehow feel a little more at ease.

Meanwhile, the red-haired sidekick of Zeke could hardly believe his eyes. He had never thought he would ever see the great and invincible Alexander looking this vulnerable, and so damned human in his emotions. And he also could not help but steal sideway glances at his master from time to time, the cold hearted Ezekiel. Lucas wondered if one day, he would ever see Ezekiel in this almost unbelievable state as how Alexander is behaving right now. Somehow, he shook his head, unable to imagine it. Lucas could only imagine Zeke sitting exactly with the same pose and with the exact same expression he has on his face right now and a helpless sigh escaped from his mouth.

...

When a nurse finally stepped out of the delivery room, Alex immediately jumped up from his seat. His heart was beating so ferociously.

With a brilliant smile, the nurse congratulated him heartily on the successful delivery of his child and Alex drew in a sharp breath of relief.

"Can I see my wife now?" he asked, his voice shaky and utterly emotional. When the nurse nodded, Alex did not waste another moment and zipped into the room as though he had totally forgotten about everything else.

Everyone who was watching him at that moment understood him and could not help but smile in relief. They, except Zeke, had all been worried this entire time that Alexander would actually have a mental breakdown or something. They had been so suffocated with his intense aura the entire time.

"Guess the gender of his child, Zeke." Kai playfully asked.

"I hope it’s a girl." Zeke replied.

"Oh, I thought you’d like a boy."

"A boy would definitely be more troublesome. You know the humans have a saying, ’like father like son’." A tiny smirk flitted past his lips so quickly that Kai missed it.

Hearing that saying, Kai could not help but chuckle. Looking at Zeke, it was obvious that the man was already trying to figure out or envision the future or what sort of troubles Abi and Alex’s child will bring to the world if the baby turns out to be a son. "So, you think a baby girl is less troublesome because of the humans’ saying, ’like mother like daughter’? Now I can’t help but want to root for a boy." He teased and Zeke just glanced at him sideways.

"How about you? Your wife’s not pregnant yet?" Zeke’s statement suddenly caught Kai unawares.

Kai was suddenly silenced, and he rubbed the back of his neck, looking a little conflicted. "Not yet, but we’ll get there soon." He said then lifted his brow at Zeke. "How about you? When will you get married?"

Even Lucas who was quiet all this time had his ear twitching in anticipation as he waited excitedly for Zeke’s response.

But to their dismay, Zeke just stood up calmly from his seat. "We’re leaving now." He said as he signalled Lucas.

"Hey, won’t you at least take a look at Alex’s child?!" Kai was shocked at the thought that Zeke would just up and leave before giving his congratulations to the new parents and having a glimpse of the child. Did he not already wait the whole time here with Alex? Why not just wait a little while longer?
