Chapter 1433 Pregnant
Chapter 1433 Pregnant
Eugene held Olivia in his arms and asked with concern, "Shall we return to Mastar?"
Olivia played with the tie on his shirt and said gently, "Let's stay a few more days."
He couldn't help but frown at her response. "Are you really going to stay for someone like him?"
Olivia glanced at Albert, who was sprawled on the ground, and said, "It's not for him. The Queen and General Bleu have helped me. I can't just leave this mess behind."
Eugene sighed wearily. Yes, things had already reached this point, and they couldn't just leave whenever they wanted.
"Promise me that you won't overwork yourself and get angry. I'm here for you," he said reassuringly.
She naturally caressed her belly and teased, "Don't worry. Our little miracle is not that delicate!"
However, Albert happened to witness this scene. It felt like something had hit his brain, and he suddenly shut down.
What does she mean?
Could she be pregnant?
He struggled to get up, his eyes filled with panic and confusion as he looked at Olivia. "Are you pregnant?"
Olivia didn't bother to respond.
She appeared unusually calm in contrast to Eugene's visible disappointment and rage.
It wasn't that she wasn't disappointed; it was just that she found it even harder to accept than Eugene.
The man standing in front of her was not only her friend but also possibly her brother.
Even if she wasn't his biological sister, she was still a sister who fought against her father to help him. His actions today were nothing short of unforgivable.
Her world was not easy to enter, but she treated anyone who entered sincerely.
Someone like him had made his way in. Yet, he didn't know how to cherish such an opportunity.
So, his ungrateful behavior naturally triggered her protective mechanism as she pushed him out of her world to prevent herself from further harm.
Meanwhile, Eugene's anger spiked further as he spat, "What do you think?"
Albert staggered. He really didn't know about that! He truly wasn't aware of her pregnancy!
He had wondered about her odd behavior. Olivia used to drink alcohol, but she only drank juice when they were in the palace. He had asked her about it, but she only said she had an upset stomach. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
So… She is pregnant?
No wonder Eugene was so upset.
He actually left a pregnant woman, who had come all the way here because of him, to be mocked and insulted in the palace. Yet, here he was, still trying to defend himself.
How could he treat a friend who sincerely cared for him like this?
Where on Earth happened to your conscience, Albert?
Why are you still trying to defend yourself when you already doubted her?
You doubted her back then when she needed your help!
Sure, he wouldn't have doubted her even for a second if there had only been the "Tears of the Ocean" necklace in her bag.
However, Eurosia did lose the necklace five years ago. It didn't help that the woman in the video looked so much like Olivia in appearance and voice. He could even confirm that George and Jewel were the other two people wearing hats. Then, Olivia happened to have a sapphire necklace in her hand. Besides, Eugene was so afraid of people finding out that he hastily picked it up, which looked like an attempt to cover up his guilt.
In the end, he had no reason to convince himself that Olivia didn't steal the necklace when he saw how evidence after evidence piled up against them.
He was even more afraid that they had misled him, causing Alice to be caught in a difficult situation.
But now...
He abruptly covered his eyes in his shame.
Why?
Why did his eyes see something different from the truth?
Although Doreen couldn't speak, her hearing was fine. She understood their conversation but was firmly on Olivia's side in this matter. Although she favored Albert, she believed that he should be punished if he did something wrong.
Nonetheless, when she heard the news of Olivia's pregnancy, excitement appeared on her face. She tried to call out, "A-Avril!"
Olivia hurried over upon hearing this. "General Bleu."
Doreen immediately answered, "Call... me... Godmother!"
Olivia smiled, squatted in front of the wheelchair, and tenderly repeated that form of address, "Godmother!"
Doreen's smile deepened as she gazed at Olivia's flat belly with gentle eyes. "How many... months?"
Olivia promptly replied, "Over two months."
