Second Son
"Dissonance…? Are you sure that it will be fine?"
"Yes, Mingzhi. It's not like I can't control myself. It's just that there are these bursts of egotistical and arrogant moments that are difficult to suppress, but I'm sure with time, I can adapt to it well."
Hearing Davis's answer, Mingzhi considered for a few moments before she nodded and opened the door for him. She heaved a sigh as he left her side, feeling that giant pressure no longer oppressing her.
Davis entered the hall and saw Evelynn and a few others, but his gaze fell on Niera and the tiny baby in her embrace.
It was as he expected. Niera had birthed a son.
Niera tried to stand up, but Evelynn had her eyes narrowed, pressing on Niera's shoulder as though indicating for her to sit down. Niera pursed her lips, wondering why she had to maintain this kind of attitude towards Davis, whom she looked forward to presenting her son even if he was late.
