Holly was stunned.She tried to get pregnant and did everything she could previously, but it never worked out.Now, she was suddenly pregnant despite not thinking about it.Bryce threw the stone-grilled squid into the trash can next to them and said, "Let's go home. I'll get Leitia to make you some postpartum food."Holly was dumbfounded. "That's for after I give birth.""Then, we'll get her to make something healthy. It's all the same anyway."They quickly walked to the car while holding hands.Even though Bryce wasn't expressing any emotions, he was over the moon on the inside.Meanwhile, Holly was way calmer.Before they reached the car, Holly saw a pharmacy by the road. "Let's get a pregnancy test kit. My period would start a few days late sometimes. So, it's better if we check first.""Sure. Wait in the car. I'll go get it."James opened the car door, and Bryce placed his hand above Holly's head, worried she might bump into the car.Then, Holly got into the car.After
Holly felt extremely touched.She couldn't believe she had such a thoughtful mother-in-law.Bryce called Olivia next to tell her the news.Seeing how he was going to tell the whole world, Holly stopped him with a smile, "Let's get a confirmation at the hospital tomorrow before telling Granny. Otherwise, it'll be awkward if I'm not pregnant."Bryce hesitated for a while. "That's fine, too."He told Leitia to make some delicious yet simple dishes.Since Holly didn't have much appetite, she casually ate a little.Then, Bryce called James and informed him to buy some sweet and sour fruits. He wanted to improve Holly's appetite.When they went to bed that night, Bryce pushed the couch to Holly's side of the bed. He was worried she would fall off the bed.After getting on the bed, he let her sleep in the center.Meanwhile, he slept sideways on the edge of the bed, looking like he was about to fall off.Holly helplessly said, "You really don't have to do that. Let's just sleep how
Richard saw Olivia holding her phone and silently wiping her tears.It was too odd.He quickly went to her and anxiously asked, "Why are you crying on a call? Who made you angry? Tell me, and I'll punish them for you!"Olivia choked out while holding her phone, "Richard, you're going to be a great-grandfather! Holls is pregnant!"Richard was stunned. "What? Holls is pregnant?""That's right. She's finally pregnant." Olivia wiped her tears with the back of her hand. "Thank goodness. The Gabelman family lives on."Richard, who had never shown much emotion, got excited as well.He pinched his nose to stop it from running.Then, he spoke emotionally, "As I've told you, Bryce will gain happiness after overcoming his biggest obstacles in life. "Although his life was in danger multiple times after the accident three years ago, he managed to survive. He even managed to stand up two years after marrying Holls. "Now, he's becoming a dad. He sure is fortunate."Olivia burst out in te
Olivia's face fell instantly. "What's with that attitude, you brat? Aren't you happy that you're going to be a granddad?"Arthur said in annoyance, "I'm busy here. We'll talk after I'm done with work."Olivia then hung up the call angrily.On the other side, Arthur threw his phone on the table and started massaging his temples.Abraham was sitting in front of Arthur, and his face darkened immediately when he heard the news.He threw the documents in his hands onto the table.Then, he said angrily, "You promised you would matchmake Bryce with Samantha. Now that Holly is pregnant, are they still getting a divorce?"Arthur frowned. "I tried. I brought them together using work as an excuse so that there was an opportunity for them to be together. However, Bryce and Holly would just get back together again. How could you blame me for that?""I don't care. Samantha is my only daughter, and I love her the most. You better think of something quickly and not make her sad."Arthur suppr
Holly almost cried because of Sherry's action.Sherry was like the sweet rain that came just in time and caught everyone off guard.Her sudden move felt better than slapping Arthur on the spot.As expected, Arthur was speechless because of the sudden rain.He lowered his gaze and stared at the divorce papers. No words came out of his mouth.His face darkened—darker than the clouds during a storm.Holly smiled at Bryce.She was telling him how awesome Sherry was.Bryce smirked and wrote in her palm, "We planned this."Holly finally understood what was happening.It turned out that Bryce and Sherry had predicted Arthur would do that, so they came up with a plan in advance.However, Holly figured that Bryce would still be sad because of Arthur's announcement.The disappointment in his eyes earlier was real.He was frustrated, and even Holly could feel it.Seeing how Arthur kept quiet for a long time, Sherry lost her patience.She tapped on the table with her index finger an
She was still angry after that rant.Olivia glanced at Bryce from the side and complained, "I don't even know how you tolerated Samantha last time."Bryce was scolded even though he had been keeping quiet.Worried that he might upset Holly, he picked his words carefully."I spent most of my time studying abroad last time, so I seldom saw her. We would only meet once in a while during the festivals, and she's great at pretending."Olivia pursed her lips. "That's true. She puts on a great act in front of me, too. She would always sweetly call me Granny. I thought she was likable."Bryce placed his hand on Holly's shoulder. "Ever since marrying Holly, I realized it's more important to be sweet on the inside.""Exactly." Olivia locked her gaze on Holly, distracted.After a moment, she sighed. "If only you were Abraham's daughter, Arthur wouldn't have rejected you that badly."Bryce calmly said, "Abraham and Quirina really don't have what it takes to have such a great daughter like
The next day, Holly went to the mall in the early morning. She wanted to buy something for the baby.It was hard for her not to be excited as it was her first time being a mother.She wanted to prepare everything before the baby was born.However, Holly had always reacted to things slowly. She only started to get excited after a day and wasn't as exaggerated as Bryce.Previously, James would always accompany Holly when she went out.Now that she was pregnant, Bryce hired Cooper Ford to tag along with Holly as well.Cooper was a professionally trained bodyguard like James.Leitia also followed Holly closely.She was carrying a flask and some sweet and sour snacks at all times. She prepared them in case Holly felt nauseous and needed them.Holly had three people following her as she walked through the mall, and she wasn't used to it.However, she couldn't talk Bryce out of it since it was also his first time being a father.He would rather carry her around whenever they needed
Today, Samantha had lost most of her hope in Bryce, and she only wanted to tear the couple apart.If she couldn't have the life she wanted, she wouldn't let them enjoy their life as well!Samantha wasn't budging, and she kept staring at Holly's belly with an evil gaze.Holly felt uncomfortable when she noticed that.Then, she coldly said, "I'm going to say it one more time. Get out. Do you not understand me?"However, Samantha was unwilling to leave just like that.It wasn't easy for them to meet, and there weren't any cameras in the restroom. The bodyguards couldn't enter as well.Samantha thought she would be an idiot if she didn't grab this rare opportunity.Then, she said sarcastically, "You poor women sure are scheming. First, your grandma died to prevent you and Bryce from getting a divorce. Now, you're using your pregnancy to keep Bryce around you. "Wow! Everyone in your family sure is full of dirty tricks. How disgusting…"Before Samantha could finish her words, Holl
