Colleen shook her head and sighed.

She looked up at Flynn and listened as he analyzed, "No matter what, the most important thing right now is to get married to Gabriel."

"But what about the baby in Fiona's belly?" Tessa was most concerned about the unborn child, fearing that the child's existence was her biggest threat.

"Oh, my silly daughter." A scheme formed in Colleen’s mind as she smiled. "Fiona is a proud woman. If she finds out you're engaged to Gabriel, would she still want to have the baby? Besides, once you're married to Gabriel, even if she gives birth, whether that child grows up or not will be up to you."

Listening to her mother's analysis, she suddenly saw the light. Her previously gloomy face brightened up with a smile. "Mom, you're the best."

She hugged Colleen tightly, the bond between mother and daughter was evident.

********

The next day, the weather was sunny with a gentle breeze.

Fiona was woken up early by the sound of her phone ringing. She picked it up and saw i

    At that moment, Fiona furrowed her brows tightly and clamped her mouth shut. Her nails dug into Gabriel's arm, leaving red marks as she tried to maintain her composure.She glared at Gabriel, coughing to mask her embarrassment and anger. "I took a delivery order; I'm on my way. I'll call you back later."With that, she hung up.She turned to Gabriel and slapped him on the arm. "You jerk! How shameless can you get?"His despicable behavior was simply outrageous. "What? Afraid your sweetheart will find out and be heartbroken?" he taunted.She felt aggrieved but quickly devised a plan.Suppressing her disgust, she placed her hands on his waist and pretended to be dissatisfied. "Is that all you've got, Gabriel? Didn't you eat?" She forced a smile. "Compared to Grant, you're way off. Is this the 'disinterested in women' reputation you have in Springvale City? If you ask me... it seems more like you're just weak."Her sudden change in attitude gave Gabriel a sense of satisfaction, but he d

    "Gabriel?"Fiona already felt terrible, and being shaken by him only made her dizzier.Gabriel locked the door, his cold eyes fixed on her. "I warned you to stay away from Grant. What, do my words mean nothing to you now?"Fiona rubbed her chest, feeling slightly better. She looked up at him and smiled sarcastically. "Ha, Gabriel, why should I listen to you? Are you my provider, or did we get married? You keep saying I have no right, but what about you?"Fiona, who had always been submissive, gathered her courage. Her slender finger poked Gabriel's chest, her eyes filled with undisguised anger. "Sure, you're rich and powerful, but that doesn't mean you can control my life! You slept with me a few days ago and told me to bear a child for your Family. Now you're engaged to Tessa. Are you planning to have my child call Tessa 'mom'?"As she spoke, she grew more agitated, her eyes turning red with anger. She shoved Gabriel hard. "Do you even see me as a human being? That's my child, mine!"

    Her reaction, however, made Grant see her in a new light.Holding a takeout bag, Grant's deep, unreadable eyes were fixed on Fiona. In that moment, he felt her sense of grievance and also sensed her inner strength. For a fleeting second, he saw a reflection of himself in her. Because they were so alike. "Alright, Fiona, let's go inside," he said. He had never liked Tessa before, and this incident made him find her even more pretentious and detestable. He reached out, grabbed Fiona's hand, and pulled her close, wrapping his arm around her shoulders. This action genuinely shocked both Tessa and Gabriel. “What?"Tessa covered her mouth in surprise. "Fiona, when did you meet Grant Hamilton? He... he..." Everyone understood the words she left unsaid.She wanted to say that Grant was a notorious playboy, a well-known big spender in Springvale City, a worthless Young Billionaire.But considering it was an engagement party, she didn't finish her sentence."Tessa, since Miss Hayes is your f

    "Hey, who is this?""How did a delivery person end up here? The food is all over the place, and it smells awful.""Today is Mr. Robinson and Miss Tessa’s engagement. Didn't they book the entire venue? How could someone order takeout?""Who knows? Maybe she sneaked in.""Where are the bodyguards? Get this person out of here."The wealthy guests and celebrities passing by cast disdainful glances at Fiona, pointing and laughing at her with contempt. Some even called for the bodyguards to throw her out.Two bodyguards approached, seeing Fiona in her delivery uniform, which made her stand out awkwardly. They grabbed her by the arm. "Get out of here. This place is booked."Fiona shook off the bodyguard's hand. "Let go!" At that moment, she was filled with rage.If she weren't pregnant, seeing Tessa and Gabriel getting engaged wouldn't have mattered to her; it had nothing to do with her.But now, she was over two months pregnant with Gabriel's child. Four days ago, Gabriel had made a deal wi

    "He's young and strong. Skipping one meal won't starve him," Fiona said, waving her hand dismissively, planning to invite Grant for lunch later.But her mother shot her a glare. "Go now.""I...," she was at a loss for words and reluctantly turned to Grant. "All right, let's go. I'll take you downstairs to eat."“Oh, no need, ma'am. I have some work to handle at the office. I'll be leaving now," he replied politely."Is that so?""Yes, I'll come back to see you later." He said goodbye to Margaret and headed for the elevator.Fiona escorted him. "Thanks, buddy. I'll treat you to a meal next time. But don't worry, you've come twice already. My mom definitely believes you're my boyfriend now, so she won't ask you to come again.""Bye..."Grant didn't have his usual playful smile. He simply said bye and didn't say anything else.After leaving the hospital building, he made a phone call. "I need you to look into Fiona's information, as well as Tessa’s."Meanwhile, upstairs, Fiona was with M

    She waved Grant over, "Come, have a seat."He walked over and sat down beside her."My daughter is a poor girl. We were warned multiple times not to reveal these things. But my husband and I are getting old, and she deserves someone who will truly care for her."Margaret shook her head. As Fiona's mother, even though she was her adoptive mother, she had raised Fiona with all her heart.Her love for Fiona surpassed everything.Knowing that she couldn't let Fiona lose a good man just to treat her husband's illness, even if it meant the truth would come out and they might be kicked out of the hospital by the Darwin Family, she had to speak up."Look, isn't this girl in the photo beautiful and adorable?" she pointed to the person in the photo, a gentle smile on her lips. "She's my daughter, Fiona.""Fiona? Isn't this... isn't this Flynn's daughter, Tessa?"In high society, few people wouldn't know the talented and beautiful first beauty, Tessa."Yes, they look exactly alike. Actually, Fio
