Nicholas Sterling pondered for a while before turning to his youngest son, "Everyone has shared their opinions, what about you? Why so silent? You're grown up now, give us some peace of mind!"

Mrs. Sterling smiled contentedly and poured Nicholas a cup of tea, then suggested, "Why don't you meet with Mr. Hamilton first to discuss things? We might like them, but they might not agree. Or perhaps we could arrange a dinner with both families?"
"That sounds good," Nicholas agreed, thinking it was time for his son to settle down and start planning for it.
Julian appeared completely indifferent, yawning and stand

Of course, Julian Sterling had no intention of actually getting a vasectomy. He wasn't out of his mind. Not to mention the potential impact of such surgery on his capabilities, just the thought of wanting Lily Parker to bear more of his children in the future made it an impossibility. His plan was to cause a stir, regardless of whether his parents agreed or not, to let them know his stance and not to meddle in his life. Especially seeing those items he bought for the child added sincerity to his act.Nicholas, always quick-tempered, was now red-faced and gasping for breath, unable to speak.

Have you forgotten everything I've taught you?""Grandpa..." Julian, receiving a stern look from Edward, quickly wiped his tears and didn't dare to stand up. Instead, he knelt, ready to receive his grandfather's admonition. In this family, the grandfather's word was law, and offending him meant serious trouble.Edward looked away, urging him, "Kneel before your parents! What kind of behavior is this for a son?"Julian hesitated, glancing at his sister Charlotte and then back at his grandfather. Reluctantly, he knelt before his parents.

Edward Sterling was the anchor of the Sterling family. Julian was confident his grandfather would smooth things over with his parents, easing his worries. The pain from the earlier beating began to resurface. Charlotte took out the medicine kit to treat him. As the medicated cotton touched his wounds, he winced and yelped in pain. Charlotte deliberately pressed harder, teasingly hitting his ribs, "Feeling the pain now? Mom and Dad spoiled you for nothing. How could you say such nonsense and upset them? Are you okay with that?"From childhood, Julian, despite his faults, was never harshly scolded. Anything good was immediately brought to him, treated like a little emperor. This pampering shaped his strong and somewhat arrogant character. However, Charlotte knew he was sensible in his dealings and wouldn't do anything too outrageous. This time, if not pushed to the brink, he had plenty of ways

Julian Sterling, after a pause, couldn't help but ask, "Lily, do you really hate me that much?"This time, Lily didn't respond. Whether it was hatred or something else, she couldn't clearly distinguish anymore, but she knew she couldn't be with him.Julian managed a rare smile, half-jokingly saying, "I'm glad you didn't just keep saying 'okay', or else I'd have to bang my head against a wall." He knew what she was thinking; she probably still hated him, although he truly believed that her inability to be with Ethan Hart wasn't entirely his fault.Julian wanted to say more, but Lily already murmured softly, "Julian, please don't call again..."Julian's heart clenched, his smile fading as he followed her lead, "Okay,
