Seeing Madam He's expression, Lily instantly widened her eyes. "Oh! I'm sorry. I didn't mean to overstep my boundaries. My apology. Please forget I ever asked about it."
"Oh! No… No." Madam He shook her head as she gave a dejected smile. "It's just that my husband and I have been trying for years now. I mean… we have been married for more than ten years." She lowered her head and let out a sigh. "I would always love to have a child of my own you know."
"Then… what is stopping you? I'm sure they have a lot of methods right now."
"We are trying our best."
Lily nodded as she pursed her lips.
"What's wrong?" Madam He asked.
"Well… it's nothing." Lily eyed the server who just arrived with their order. She uttered a word of thanks before meeting Madam He's eyes. "I mean… please don't get offended at my words, it's just that..."
"Do you want to say something? Please go ahead."
