Six butlers stood rigidly at the entrance, flanked by ten housekeepers arranged in two lines to welcome Summer. However, this display only served to create an invisible pressure weighing heavily on her. As she walked through this human corridor, it felt as though countless stones were pressing on her chest, making it hard to breathe. Caroline sat on an antique rosewood chair at the front of the living room in a tailored dress. She exuded the aura of a distinguished matriarch. She lifted her eyes and looked at Summer with a condescending gaze. "So, you've finally arrived.""Mom, is there something you need?" Summer forced a smile, but it was more of a grimace. The atmosphere was tense and intimidating. With sharp eyes watching her every move, Summer felt extremely uneasy.Caroline didn't immediately reveal the purpose of this meeting. Instead, she gestured with a slight wave of her hand, prompting Luca to step forward with a wooden tray in his hands. He presented it to Summer.

"That's not what I meant—I would never doubt your word."Caroline and Lilian had been friends for a long time. Since they had such a close bond, Caroline trusted her. If Lilian was also claiming that Summer was pregnant, it must be true.Now, Caroline was staring at Summer's belly with a greedy expression. "I can't believe this. You're carrying my first-ever grandchild.""Yes, I am." Summer felt incredibly relieved. She'd finally gained Caroline's trust. At the very least, the latter wouldn't pick on her for the foreseeable future.They returned to the Quigley residence after the hospital appointment. On the way back, Caroline was significantly nicer toward Summer. She used to be aggressive and vicious, but she was now speaking to her in a much gentler voice. During the ride home, she kept asking her about her favorite foods and the clothes she wanted to wear.Summer wasn't surprised. Now that she was pregnant, it was only natural that Caroline would treat her in a different way

James didn't want to agree to this arrangement. Even though it wasn't explicitly mentioned, he was fully aware that Summer didn't want to stay at the Quigley residence. Hence, he said, "I'll take care of Summer, Mom. I even hired Tina to look after her needs. You know how dependable Tina is. With her around, everything will be fine.""Nonsense. Even if Tina was there, there's only so much she can do on her own. This Quigley grandchild is extremely important. I can't just let her handle everything by herself.""That won't be an issue, Mom. Besides, Summer won't feel comfortable staying here either." Summer's feelings were James' top priority. Caroline could see this as well. In the end, the decision was Summer's to make. So, instead of addressing James, she turned to Summer and asked, "Would you like to stay at the Quigley residence, Summie?"If it were up to Summer, she'd say no. There was no way she would want to stay here out of her own free will. Just the mere sight of Caroli

What would it mean to Howe if he gave up on the position of the head of the family? It meant that he would have to depend on someone else to survive, and he would be giving up on glory and riches along with a life filled with extravagance.Thanks to his wealthy background, Howe was already used to life like this. If James became the head of the family in the future, he might exercise his authority as the head of the family to limit Howe's movements. Howe would be stripped of freedom.Maeve felt that Howe was right as well. Her current life of luxury was built upon mountains of cash. If Howe didn't get to be the head of the family, he would definitely face restrictions."Howe, I want you to be the head of the family as well, but do you really have confidence in your capabilities? Your brother is so outstanding, and he's the official heir, too."Maeve hit the nail on the head. This was exactly what Howe was worried about as well. There was a world of difference between him and James,

For example, Summer and James were taking a walk in the park. They might look like they were alone, but in reality, more than a dozen bodyguards were hiding in bushes and various corners of the park. To protect the child, the Quigleys pulled out all the stops to ensure Summer's safety."Alright, I get it." Summer chose to compromise. She was living a wonderful life at the Quigley residence, after all, so she felt like she shouldn't ask for too much.Also, as Caroline had said, Summer would regain freedom once she gave birth to the child. Summer would be able to live her happy life with James then, and Caroline wouldn't be around to nag her about the child.The next morning, the Quigleys arranged for a luxurious limousine to send Summer and James to the Charter Estate. Amelia and Fred already knew that their daughter would be coming over, so they were waiting at the entrance. When they saw their dear daughter, elated expressions appeared on their faces."Summer, you're back! We've p
