Lucille watched as Eunice came out of the fitting room, looking distressed. She asked, "What's wrong, Eunie?"Eunice sat beside her. Then, she abruptly turned and asked, "Do you think I've gained weight, Lucy?"Lucille hadn't expected that. Before she could say anything, Eunice pinched her own cheeks and mumbled, "I think I have."It didn't make sense, though. Things hadn't exactly been easy for her lately. She should've lost weight instead of gaining it.The size of her clothes was almost always in medium, but when she'd been in the fitting room earlier, she'd realized the M-sized clothes had felt tight, especially around the waist. In that instant, she'd lost the desire to continue trying anything on.Lucille appraised her. Eunice didn't look any different. "Where has the weight gone?"She eyed Eunice's chest meaningfully. The latter followed her line of sight. "That's not where it's gone! I think my waist has become thicker. Look, feel it." She grabbed Lucille's hands and plac

Bailey was exasperated as she recalled Lucas' proposal. Who would propose to someone in bed? Even if they would, who would do it during sex?He'd deliberately left her hanging while forcing her to say yes. To think the idea had even occurred to him! She wondered whether air was the only thing in his head.The mention of this matter made her mad, and when she was mad, she felt the blood rush to her head.Lucille coughed when she heard that and gave Bailey a thumbs-up and a teasing look. "That's not too bad. It's a pretty unique proposal.""Laugh if you want; it's not good to keep these things in. I'm too thick-skinned to care, anyway." Bailey didn't feel embarrassed in the least. Then, she glanced at Lucille. "Do you think everyone is as romantic, gentle, and considerate as your husband?"Sweetness colored Lucille's gaze at the mention of Spencer. Bailey watched as a light blush spread across the former's face; she didn't conceal her love for Spencer.Bailey nudged her shoulder.

With how things were between Eunice and Ian, there was no way he would let her have the child. After all, he'd made it clear from the start that she had no right to have his children.They'd been married for five years and had slept together countless times. If not for him paying particular attention to protection, she would've had to have multiple abortions by now.Ultimately, she decided to head to the hospital for a proper check and a sure answer. She wanted to keep this a secret, so she didn't dare to go to any of the bigger hospitals.After a series of checks, the trio waited for close to an hour before finally getting the results. Sure enough, Eunice was pregnant. The doctor smiled gently at her and said, "Congratulations, you're pregnant. You're nine weeks along now."Nine weeks? That meant it was just over two months. So, it hadn't been because of that time in the apartment. It was…But it didn't add up. She'd taken the morning-after pill then. Eunice said a little anxio
A Heartwarming Marriage Chapter 355
The three women had never expected to return with the news of a pregnancy when they went out shopping, especially since it had been discovered while trying on clothes.It was a complete surprise, mainly because Eunice didn't show any signs of being pregnant. She felt the same as usual, and pregnancy was not something she'd ever thought about.Lucille and Bailey took her home and spent the rest of the day with her. They both respected her decision, but Bailey still wanted to give it a shot. The baby would be a member of the Moore family, after all."Eunie, maybe you should try talking to Uncle Ian about the baby," she said.Eunice was silent for a long time. Then, she said, "Nah."There was a hint of self-deprecation in her expression as she bit her lip before continuing, "Do you know what he said to me when he agreed to marry me?"Bailey's heart sank. It couldn't have been anything nice.Eunice took a deep breath and said, "He told me that he would never allow me to get pregnant

After getting into the car, Wesley glanced in the rearview mirror and asked, "Are you heading back to the hotel today or the apartment, Mr. Moore?"Ian only spoke after a brief silence, his voice hoarse and carrying a hint of fatigue. "The apartment."Wesley started the car and drove toward the apartment.…Eunice assured Lucille and Bailey that she wouldn't overthink things while alone at home. Only then did they leave. Once they were gone, Eunice was alone in the apartment. She couldn't help feeling a little empty and lonely.She sat on the couch and allowed her mind to wander as she thought about many things. Placing a hand on her belly and caressing it, she thought about how the baby had come so quietly and without warning. She'd been caught off guard and didn't know whether to be happy or worried.Eunice had only just learned about the existence of a life within her body, but the thought of getting rid of it already made her heart ache and her nose prickle. The knowledge t

Lucas held Bailey's wrist. "Don't mess around. I'm asking you a serious question.""And I'm being serious," Bailey retorted. "What makes you think I'm pregnant? Or are you imagining that I am?"Lucas' eyes twitched. He pressed his lips together before saying, "I saw the pregnancy tests in the washroom."The washroom? Pregnancy tests?"Oh." She dragged the sound out. "That's what you're talking about. They aren't mine. Anyway, I'm only 24. I haven't had enough fun yet; I don't want to have kids so early in life."Lucas felt like he'd just taken an emotional rollercoaster as his mood went from ecstatic to despondent in a split second. The pregnancy tests weren't hers? Then, she wasn't pregnant.He couldn't help feeling a little upset when he heard her deny the pregnancy so quickly. He'd been trying to get her pregnant, but she was much too good at ensuring that they both took the necessary precautions.Lucas pursed his lips. "Whose tests are those, then? Who would've come over her

Lucille didn't see Spencer around when she returned to Sparrow Residence. Herbert told her he'd yet to return.She checked the time and saw it was already 7:30 pm. He would usually already be home at this hour. She checked her phone, but she didn't see any messages from him. She raised an eyebrow and texted him instead.Spencer was still hard at work. He sat at the main seat in the conference room, his expression icy and ruthless. His eyes seemed to be able to see through anyone, and nobody dared to speak when they saw the frosty look in his eyes.Spencer wasn't happy with their proposal. Before this, he'd still kindly pointed out the problems in the proposal.But as the meeting went on, the employees found the atmosphere in the conference room growing more grim and tense. They felt as though they were standing on a thin layer of ice above a gaping abyss. No one dared to even breathe loudly.Just then, Spencer's phone vibrated. He picked it up, his expression still stormy. He lowe

Spencer watched as Lucille's lips moved. Suddenly, his gaze turned fiery. He wanted nothing more than to drag her into his arms and have his way with her. Instead, all he did was smile affectionately and say, "Alright."Lucille sat on the carpet and placed her laptop on the coffee table before her. Then, she grabbed a cushion from the couch behind her and held it in her arms.Halfway through his video conference, Spencer sneaked a look at her. He saw her looking at her laptop seriously; her fingers never once ceased from flying across the keyboard. He wondered what exactly she was typing.Aside from Spencer occasionally speaking fluent Faelisian, the sound of Lucille's nails tapping on the keyboard was the only sound in the room. The scene was surprisingly heartwarming—they were busy with their respective tasks but could see the person they loved as long as they looked up.Lucille was looking at the information on a new research project that Patrick had shared with her. The resea

In the bathroom, Lucille was relaxing as she enjoyed the care she was receiving from Spencer. They had seen each other like this for too long, and they had gotten used to it by now. Of course, it had taken her time to get used to it. Every time she was injured, she would end up receiving this treatment, but… While she might have gotten used to it, it was still a kind of punishment for Spencer."Honey, your shirt is wet. Why don't you take it off?"She noticed that half of his black shirt was wet and sticking closely to his body. The wet shirt perfectly outlined his muscular build.She couldn't help but gulp. This was pretty deadly to her too.He was wearing a black shirt with two buttons undone, revealing a glimpse of his collarbone. Coupled with his handsome face, he looked simply irresistible. Her heart couldn't help but race. As he carefully wiped her arm, he avoided the injury on her right hand. It was already torture for him to help her bath. However, when he suddenly he

"So, you can't blame Eunie for not telling you, and you can't blame us for keeping you in the dark."In other words, Ian had brought it upon himself, and there was no one else to blame but himself.Ian was rendered speechless. He'd never thought that this was how Eunice saw him—a ruthless person who would get rid of his own child.He mocked himself inwardly. He also felt hurt, as if something were stabbing him.After Lucille was done talking, she saw Ian look visibly upset and didn't say anything. So, she whispered to Spencer, "Do you think I went too far with what I said earlier? Can he take it?"Spencer rubbed her head and said, "Don't worry. He can take it. Besides, what you told him is the truth. If he can't handle it, he isn't worthy to be our buddy."Lucille nodded in agreement after she heard that. What Spencer said made sense. She felt at ease after he comforted her.After a while, Ian finally spoke up again. "So, I shouldn't go and look for her?"Lucille was surprised

"I'm here for you!"Upon hearing that, Lucille was rendered speechless. On second thought, she realized this was fine too.Then, she looked at Spencer and blinked before she said, "Don't leave me. I'm injured right now, so I can't fight him."Ian glowered at her words, feeling at a loss for words. Did he look like someone who would lay a hand on a woman?Spencer looked at her dotingly and responded, "Okay. I won't leave you."Ian was just flabbergasted now."What's the matter, Ian?" With Spencer to back her up, Lucille felt at ease. Even if she hadn't said anything, she knew Spencer wouldn't have left her alone with Ian.Ian suddenly smiled. "It looks like you have quite the luck. The hospital is practically your second home."Lucille was rendered speechless. Then, she smiled and looked at Spencer before she provoked Ian. "My home is wherever my husband is. We're not like some people, for whom having a wife seems to make no difference whatsoever." She'd never lost to anyone b

Ian turned to look at Lucas. It was obvious that he seemed to be wondering why Lucas had asked that. When Lucas saw Ian's expression, he knew that Ian had never thought about it. In other words, he had no recollection of what he had done and said."I'm going back to be with my wife. You guys just carry on." Spencer stood up and smoothed out the creases on his clothes as he spoke indifferently. After all, it had been a while since he'd left the ward.With that, he strode toward the door without waiting for the others to say anything. Connor was eager to see how things would unfold, so he didn't leave.…Meanwhile, after Beatrice left, Spencer returned to the hospital ward. When Lucille saw him coming in, she asked, "Where have you been?"He took off his coat and put it aside. Then, he walked to the bed and sat down. "I went to investigate some stuff."Lucille figured out what it must have been about and asked, "You went to investigate Alexander and my mom?"Spencer, who wa

"Ian, what brings you here?" Connor had no idea about Eunice's situation in Arcania, so he was quite surprised when he saw Ian.Although he was surprised, he wasn't blind. He could see that Ian had a hostile air about him.Looking puzzled, Connor glanced at Lucas, who was seated next to him, for an explanation. After all, he knew Spencer wouldn't tell him.After Ian came in, he didn't even bother to sit and directly asked, "Where is she?"Last night, he'd received Lucas' message—the latter had told him that he knew Eunice's location and wanted him to come to Arcania immediately. That was why Ian had rushed to Arcania without any delay.Lucas hadn't told him the exact location. Instead, he'd just told Ian to come to the hospital. Ian had thought that something had happened to Eunice and that she was hospitalized. So, he'd rushed to the hospital as soon as he'd gotten off the plane. However, after he'd come to his senses, he'd gotten someone to check the hospital's patient list.

Before Beatrice spoke, she looked at the entrance of the hospital ward. After ensuring that no one was coming, she said, "Although we found out that all four of Mr. President's children's last names are Vonridge, they don't seem to be his biological children."Lucille widened her eyes, looking surprised. She cocked an eyebrow and asked, "What did you just say?""They were adopted from the orphanage. Our database has their information, and it's a 100% match," Beatrice replied.Lucille naturally wouldn't doubt that the information in Otearl Alliance's database was incorrect. However, she had never heard anyone mention this before.At the same time, Spencer, who had just left, had gone to investigate something as well.After they'd returned in the afternoon, he'd instructed Kent to conduct an investigation. The news that Kent came back with shocked Spencer to the core.Connor and Lucas were also there. They were in a lounge."Spence, how could Lucille's mom also know Alexander?"

Diana let out a long sigh. Her words were tinged with helplessness and regret. "This is your aunt. She hasn't appeared for more than 20 years. I never expected her to be gone for this long. There has been no news from her. She must hate me very much."Samantha had no idea what had happened. Her aunt's name and everything related to her had always been taboo in the Crawford family."Is it possible that Ms. Deer is my aunt's child?" Samantha asked.If that was the case, it was quite a coincidence.Diana looked at the photo album in her hands. After a brief silence, she said, "I want to meet her. Don't tell anyone about this for now."Samantha nodded. "Okay."…Meanwhile, in Arcania, Alexander also left the venue after Lucille and the others left.After Alexander left, he immediately had someone to investigate Lucille's past. Back then, after Jane had suddenly left, she had covered all her tracks. No matter how Alexander had searched, he hadn't been able to find her. There hadn't

When Diana took a closer look, her hands, which had been leisurely tapping on the armrests, suddenly froze.At first, Samantha didn't notice anything unusual about her reaction."Grandma, the best thing I got out of this trip was getting a photo with my idol." She went on and on. "It's the first time I got to see Ms. Deer's real face, and she's very beautiful. No wonder she always wears a veil. Although she looks aloof, I think the way she talks sounds gentle."By the way, she is married. Her real name is Lucille Johnson, and she's from Whiteloop City in Summeria. There was an unexpected incident during the competition, and it was quite despicable. I didn't expect her family to turn out completely different from how I'd imagined them to be."Samantha pouted as she stared at the photo of her and Lucille. She'd always thought that someone outstanding like Lucille would have a perfect family; she hadn't expected things to turn out like that.After the competition had ended, Samantha

Meanwhile, after Samantha had participated in the perfumery competition, she'd stayed in Whiteloop City for about a week before returning to Crawford Residence in Marvonia.She had been declared the champion of this year's perfumery competition. After she'd returned, she'd chosen to keep a low profile and hadn't celebrated or gone around boasting about it.However, she'd forgotten that Natasha Crawford, her mother, had a strong sense of pride.Since Samantha had been young, she'd had to excel in everything and come in first to meet Natasha's expectations. Only then could Natasha hold her head high and brag about Samantha in front of everyone. At the same time, she could enjoy the flattery from those around her.So, the day after Samantha had returned, Natasha had gathered everyone and thrown a party to celebrate her victory. The room had been filled with people she hadn't known, but they'd all been important figures. That night, after making an appearance, Samantha had left the
