Faulkner Family, dinner time, everyone was seated together for the meal.
Faye Sterling quietly glanced around; today’s gathering was complete, the perfect opportunity to announce her pregnancy.
She had been waiting cautiously for so long, afraid to reveal any flaw, and finally, today arrived.
Seemingly unintentionally, Faye Sterling picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in her mouth.
"Ugh!" She looked in pain, dropped her chopsticks, covered her mouth, and ran to the restroom.
Soon, the sound of retching filled the air.
The people at the dining table were bewildered by her actions, exchanging looks, unsure of what was happening.
Estelle Sterling and Caleb Faulkner exchanged a glance, wondering what was wrong with the woman. If she couldn’t eat braised pork, why did she try it?
Caleb Faulkner leaned over to Estelle Sterling, asking in a low voice, "Hey, Star, what’s wrong with her?"
Estelle Sterling shook her head, "No idea."
The two children naturally didn’t understand such matters, but as experienced adults, the others began to make connections.
Old Lady Faulkner furrowed her brows, gazing in the direction of the restroom, a thoughtful expression on her face.
Mrs. Faulkner, Susan Langley, seemed to have thought of something too, a flash of joy in her eyes.
She asked with a smile, "Why is Faye reacting so strongly? Could she be pregnant?"
As soon as she spoke, everyone at the table was shocked.
Faye Sterling was pregnant?
In the restroom, Faye Sterling had been faking pregnancy nausea, but as she leaned over the toilet retching, she eventually started to feel it, vomiting intensely.
Susan Langley came in, gently patting her back to help her breathe easier.
Once Faye Sterling calmed down, she helped her out to sit on the couch.
Susan Langley eagerly asked, "Faye, what’s going on with you? It really looks like you’re pregnant."
Hearing this, Faye Sterling lowered her head, her face slightly shy.
She hesitated a bit, then smiled, "I... I might really be pregnant."
Old Lady Faulkner, who had come over, was startled, exclaiming, "What? You’re pregnant? Whose child is it?"
"It’s... Alaric’s child," Faye Sterling immediately replied.
Faye Sterling is pregnant with Alaric Faulkner’s child!
Caleb Faulkner was beside himself upon hearing this.
He jumped up, shouting angrily, "Nonsense! Dad and Mom Eleanor went to Lyria, how could you be pregnant with his child?"
Looking at Caleb Faulkner’s angry little face, Faye Sterling smirked, saying meaningfully, "Caleb, I went to Lyria a month ago to see Alaric. That’s when the child was conceived."
She sighed, "Caleb, you’re soon going to have a little brother or sister, aren’t you happy?"
Caleb Faulkner looked like he ate crap.
As Faye Sterling’s words fell, everyone’s expressions varied.
Mrs. Faulkner looked overjoyed, while the two elders of the Faulkner Family pursed their lips tightly, their expressions gloomy, clearly not very pleased.
The two children glared angrily at Faye Sterling, even more displeased.
Susan Langley reminded, "Faye, we should go to the hospital for a check-up to avoid any accidents."
Faye Sterling went to the hospital for a check-up.
Two hours later, her examination results were out.
The test report showed she was nearly two months pregnant; she had someone from Aaron Underwood’s side alter the dates.
Now the pregnancy week on the report roughly matched the time she went to Lyria. The rightful source is novęlfire.net
Faye Sterling returned to the Faulkner Family with the test report.
Looking at the results, the Faulkner Family seemed to accept that Faye Sterling was pregnant, with mixed reactions of joy and worry.
Old Lady Faulkner liked Eleanor Sterling, but now that Faye Sterling was pregnant, she felt all sorts of displeasure towards Alaric Faulkner.
As for Old Master Faulkner, he looked at Giselle Keating, wanting Alaric Faulkner to marry into the Keating Family, but now that Faye Sterling was pregnant, this hope was dashed.
Estelle Sterling and Caleb Faulkner were sulking.
They didn’t expect Faye Sterling to get pregnant, and it was Alaric Faulkner’s child.
Suddenly, the two no longer wanted Alaric Faulkner as their dad.
That bastard man dared to pursue Eleanor Sterling while still getting involved with Faye Sterling, utterly unforgivable!
