Chapter 132
“Yes, Uncle Matthew, come closer. Aiden smiled Matthew to come closer. Then, he carefully rem
h his tears and directed
the star sticker from the
sheet. However, he stuck it in the middle of Matthew’s forehead.”
Matthew stood up. Valerie saw his usual arrogant and cool face with a childish little star. She did not know if it was because of the star, but Matthew’s temperament had changed. He even looked pure and innocent. Valerie thought, ‘Good lord. I knew Matthew for so long but did not expect that one day I would use such words to describe him.”
Valerie held back her laughter when she saw Matthew looking at her with a dangerous gaze.
Only then did Matthew’s expression improve a little. He said to Aiden, “Thanks for the gift. I also have a gift for you… Come in.”
As Matthew finished speaking, they heard a commotion outside the door. Then, a few movers in uniforms brought in a piano. Although it was an old piano, it did not look old. Instead, it looked prettier than those in the piano shop Valerie had seen. Although time had made the piano look less bright, it had a simple and warm
texture.
Aiden’s eyes lit up immediately. He was so excited that he was incoherent. When the movers put the piano down, he could not help but go over and try it. A burst of music immediately sounded in the living room. Valerie thought it sounded more melodious than the electronic piano.
“Aiden is indeed talented. He has his own world and his own understanding of music. He is very happy when he plays the piano,” Matthew said.
Valerie was touched. “Mr. Grant, thank you!
Aiden did not have many friends due to his lack of mental development. The teacher had to watch over the entire class and could not take special care of him. Valerie did not expect Matthew, who looked the most impatient, to be so concerned about Aiden.
Unexpectedly, Matthew looked at Valerie and said with a sharp gaze, “Actually, I’m

more interested in you.” He had not forgotten the last time she played the piano on the balcony with her phone app.
A person who had never learned the piano shoulot be able to understand the score, but Valerie knew. It was curious.
Valerie was at a loss for words. Although she had forgotten why she could understand music scores, when Matthew stared at her with his black eyes at this moment, it made her feel even more confused.
Fortunately, Aiden ran over at this moment and helped Valerie out. “Uncle Matthew, thanks for the piano.”
Although Aiden was young, he was very polite. After thanking him, he probably felt it was not enough, so he added, “I wish you two happiness every day. Hopefully, you will have children soon.” After saying that, he touched Valerie’s stomach.
It was as if thunder had exploded in Valerie’s ears. She never expected Aiden to say that.
When Matthew heard this, he followed Aiden’s hand and looked at Valerie’s stomach.
Valerie’s body was extremely stiff. In the past, she had heard that children could sense things like pregnancies. She did not believe it. Now, it did not matter if she believed it or not because she really was pregnant.
Valerie was afraid Matthew would feel something was wrong. Although she felt that her figure was still slim and her clothes were loose, she was too guilty. She quickly used the excuse of cooking and went into the kitchen.
Aiden looked at Valerie’s back and was a little puzzled. “Is Aunt Valerie unhappy?”
Matthew replied, “She is just embarrassed. Let’s go and continue practicing the piano.”
Matthew led Aiden back to the piano. As he watched Aiden climb onto the chair in a cute posture, he suddenly felt that it would be good if he really had a child.
