Morning light filled the room.<\/p>\n

Liberty had a wonderful dream that night.<\/p>\n

Turning her head, she looked at Duncan and complained, \u201cWhy did you wake me up? My dream was amazing. I wanted to keep watching her grow up, get married, and take over the business.\u201d<\/p>\n

Duncan blinked in confusion. \u201cWho were you dreaming about? Yangyang? Are you planning for him to take over in the future?\u201d<\/p>\n

The Feng family had always been led by women for generations. Would they even allow Yangyang to take over? Probably not.<\/p>\n

Liberty shook her head. \u201cNo, before we fell asleep, we were talking about having another baby. Then I dreamed that I actually got pregnant and had a daughter. She didn\u2019t look like me at all\u2014she looked exactly like you. Every bit like you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Duncan raised an eyebrow, amused.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course, you\u2019re cute too,\u201d Liberty teased. \u201cYou\u2019re not ugly. Before that scar, you were actually quite handsome.\u201d She glanced at the side of his face that was unscarred\u2014he really was good-looking.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnyway,\u201d she continued, \u201cyou were so happy about our daughter that you held her all the time. You barely had time for work because she became your entire world. Yangyang and I were both jealous of her.\u201d<\/p>\n

She sighed dramatically. \u201cI never had a real romantic rival, but I didn\u2019t expect to give birth to one. Our daughter completely took over your arms.\u201d<\/p>\n

Duncan chuckled.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd the worst part?\u201d Liberty added. \u201cYou kept showing her off every chance you got. Every time you met up with your friends, you bragged about her. Especially in front of Zhan Yin and Su Nan, just to rub it in that they only had sons.\u201d<\/p>\n

Duncan laughed. \u201cThey didn\u2019t beat me up for it?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo, because they\u2019re decent people,\u201d Liberty said with a smirk. \u201cBut I got so annoyed in my dream that I finally snapped and called you a show-off. That\u2019s when you pushed me and woke me up. I didn\u2019t even get to hold my daughter!\u201d<\/p>\n

Duncan smiled. \u201cSo that\u2019s why you were mumbling in your sleep. If I\u2019d known you were having such a beautiful dream, I wouldn\u2019t have woken you up. You could\u2019ve watched our daughter grow up, get married, and take over the family business.\u201d<\/p>\n

He leaned back thoughtfully. \u201cThen when we retire, I\u2019d hand my business over to Yangyang. We\u2019d travel the world with Zhan Yin, Su Nan, and the rest of our friends\u2014just a group of happy retirees.\u201d<\/p>\n

He glanced at her playfully. \u201cOur daughter was adorable, right? You said she looked like me, so I guess I should try to be gentler. I wouldn\u2019t want her growing up as rough as I am.\u201d<\/p>\n

Liberty chuckled. \u201cThat was just a dream, Duncan. It\u2019s not real.\u201d<\/p>\n

But even as she said it, the warmth of the dream lingered in her heart.
\n\u201cDreams often reflect the opposite of reality,\u201d Liberty mused. \u201cSince we were talking about having a daughter before bed, I ended up dreaming about it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Still, she decided not to take the morning-after pill. She would just let nature take its course.<\/p>\n

If I do get pregnant, I\u2019ll keep the baby, she thought. And if not, there\u2019s still time for a second child once things settle down.<\/p>\n

These days, many people were having children in their thirties and even forties. Since she had already given birth to one child, waiting a little longer for a second wouldn\u2019t be an issue. But if she waited until 35 or 36, it might start feeling too late.<\/p>\n

She reached for her phone on the bedside table, checked the time, then sat up. \u201cWhat time is it? I need to get up.\u201d<\/p>\n

Duncan got up as well. \u201cI\u2019ll get your clothes for you.\u201d<\/p>\n

Liberty shook her head with a smile. \u201cI have hands, you know. I can do it myself.\u201d<\/p>\n

Still, as she grabbed her own clothes, she also took his and handed them to him.<\/p>\n

The couple dressed, freshened up, and went downstairs together.<\/p>\n

Duncan had been doing rehabilitation for a long time. Though he still couldn\u2019t walk completely normally, he had made a lot of progress. He could manage the stairs\u2014just a little slower and with a limp.<\/p>\n

At one point, Duncan had worried about his future. What if he never fully recovered? What if he remained crippled for life? He had asked Liberty if she would ever resent him for it.<\/p>\n

Her answer had been simple: \u201cIf I minded, I wouldn\u2019t have married you.\u201d<\/p>\n

After all, when they got their marriage certificate, he had been in even worse condition than he was now.<\/p>\n

That reassurance had put Duncan at ease, but it also strengthened his resolve. I have to keep going with rehab. I won\u2019t let myself become a cripple.<\/p>\n
