Chapter 629 Such A Cute Boy

As soon as Ashley answered the phone, Chloe's excited voice came through. "Ashley, where are you now? Let's go shopping together!"

Chloe's voice was always energetic and full of vitality. If she was unhappy in one moment, she would feel completely different in the next.

Except for the orphanage drama, Ashley hadn't gone outside in a while because of her pregnancy. She was about to turn down Chloe's offer without even a moment of thought when she glanced at Richard sitting on the bed with an innocent look. She remembered that she needed to get him some new clothes.

As soon as Chloe asked Ashley out to go shopping, she realized her folly and slapped herself on the back of her head. "How forgetful of me! You're more than eight months pregnant now. This isn't the right time to be going out. I'm sorry, Ashley."

Ashley smiled faintly, as she could almost picture Chloe's disappointed look. "Hey, it's okay! I think I can still go out and have some fun."

"Yes, you're right. Your pregnancy doesn't mean that you should stay at home all day long. Some fresh air would be good for you and the baby as well," Chloe suggested.

"Where are you now? I'll come and pick you up," Chloe said.

"I'm just at home. I will be downstairs after I put away everything."

"Okay," replied Chloe.

After hanging up the phone, Ashley noticed Richard sitting still on the bed, not saying a word and not moving an inch. She held his hand, feeling sorry for him and said, "Your Aunt Chloe will be here soon. Let's get ready and wait for her downstairs. I'll buy you some new clothes, okay?"

Ashley wasn't expecting to hear a response from Richard, but she just wanted to give him a heads up.

"You want to come along with us, right? If that's a 'yes', please give me a nod. If it's a

elp but take a look at Richard. Suddenly, she felt that Richard was a little dazed and a little goofy.

"Okay, that's enough. I've already adopted him. It's done. Besides, so what if he doesn't speak? He doesn't have to talk. I think he is good enough as he is."

Ashley rubbed her hand over Richard's head as she spoke.

Richard rested his head on Ashley's shoulder as though he was completely dependent on her.

Having realized that Ashley had made up her mind, Chloe put her hand on her forehead and said, "Okay, whatever. I don't want to talk about this anymore."

Chloe knew how stubborn Ashley could be and that it would be a waste of time to argue with her.

"Anyway, just take care of yourself. If you need anything, just let me know, okay?"

Ashley nodded and said, "Okay, thanks."

The car drove through many streets before finally stopping in front of a luxurious shopping mall.

Chloe pushed the door open and got out of the car. "Come on, let's go check out this mall."

It was a known fact that women loved to go shopping. The sight of Chloe's happy face made Ashley smile too.

With Chloe to her side, Ashley led Richard inside the extravagant shopping mall.
