DreameNovelChapter 15 Nancy was engulfed by a chilling emptiness, as if her heart had been violently ripped out, leaving a deep ache that threatened to overwhelm her.
Hayley was pregnant! Deep down, Nancy had anticipated this day, yet the reality of it cut deep.
She watched Cyrus tenderly support Hayley, his eyes filled with unprecedented concern and fear, terrified of any harm befalling her.
Attempting to lighten the mood, Hayley chuckled, "Cyrus, don't be so overprotective. I'm not that weak..." Visibly annoyed, Cyrus retorted, "How can you say that? You're carrying our future now."

Hayley touched her belly affectionately and smirked, "Mrs. Gordon, you and Mr. Gordon have been married for almost a year. Don't you think it's tto start thinking about having a baby?" Nancy felt a sting at Hayley's insinuation but remained composed, her demeanor icy.
"How long have you known about the pregnancy, Ms. Grant? The waters run deep with the Patel family.
