Consequently, he opted to skip breakfast with her.

Ollie intermittently observed them while consuming his dog's food.

Upon realizing this, Alexis suggested gently, “Let's head to the hospital and grab a meal together later."

However, Leonel declined, opting instead to prepare a glass of milk and a sandwich for Alexis to consume during the car ride.

Evelyn looked at Alexis with anticipation.

Leonel lifted Evelyn, planting a kiss on her cheek. “Isn't it sufficient that I stay hungry with you? Your mom is another story.

If she's hungry, we won't be having a new baby.”

Evelyn expressed a desire for a new sibling.

Scott constantly boasted that he would soon have a younger sister.

Observing Alexis' belly, Evelyn whispered to Leonel, “Dad, can you make it happen sooner? I'd like to have a younger sibling before Scott."

Leonel found himself momentarily speechless.

Knowing about Laura's pregnancy, he realized Evelyn couldn't have a sibling before Scott did.

Besides, he couldn't get Alexis pregnant with just a snap of his fingers or something. It wasn't that simple!

Noticing Leonel's expression, Evelyn pouted and remarked, "Well, Scott's father seems to be better than mine."

Leonel's pride took a hit.

Placing Evelyn in the back seat, he glanced at Alexis and cleared his throat. “Let's put in some extra effort tonight, making sure we don't lag too far behind Edwin."

Alexis found Leonel's comparison childish and questioned its relevance.

Despite this, Leonel, in high spirits, grinned. Seated in the driver's seat, he initiated the car's engine.

Thirty minutes later, the car arrived at the hospital, where they already had a scheduled doctor's appointment.

Evelyn received an injection and had blood drawn.
