Melanie thought for a moment and said, “I do have a nickname for the child.”

She parsed for a moment before replying, “Merry.”

Benry was taken aback. “So, you want to have a daughter?”

Melanie shook her head. “I’d be happy regardless if it’s a boy or a girl.”

Thouse mentioned before that she had a friend working at the hospital who could check the baby’s gender in advance. However, Melanie had declined the offer. She liked both boys and girls equally. She did not prefer one gender more than the other.

As the only one who had not been busy with work during Christmas and New Year’s, Melanie found herself bored in the hotel. Since the air in Prime City was good, she decided to take a walk in the nearby Seagull Park.

When she was about to return to the hotel, however, she saw Peyton at the hotel entrance. More precisely, she stumbled upon Peyton embracing a man.

Melanie initially paid no heed at all, but when she was a few steps closer, she saw the man’s profile and froze on the spot.

It was Howard.
