Now he was even willing to put in effort for a woman?
Tessa cast a resentful look at Lewis but said nothing.

Lewis: “…“<i>What </i><i>kind </i><i>of look </i><i>was that</i>?
She had Ss wrapped around her finger, and she still looked so aggrieved?

Evelyn didn’te back the entire day.
Abraham had just returned to Falvaria, so naturally, he had work to handle. Before leaving that evening, he gave the housekeeper detailed instructions-
All kinds of reminders about Ste. She was pregnant now, and there were a lot of things she couldn’t eat.
Ste was sitting on the nearby sofa, nibbling on a banana.
Abraham walked over holding the medical report and gently ruffled her hair. “You like

He nced at the trash can–it was already full of banana peels.
Ste replied, “Yeah, it’s tasty.”
She wasn’t a fan of overly sweet fruits, and the banana’s mild sweetness was just right.
Abraham sat beside her, eyes resting on the two ultrasound images printed on the report. The gentleness in his gaze was identical to the way he looked at Ste.
Ste nced over. “You’ve looked at that so many times already.”
Ever since he got the report, he hadn’t let go of it. Was it really that interesting?
Abraham chuckled softly. “What do you think Ste will look like?”
“Marie just said earlier that you can’t tell anything from it yet. Who would know?”
Besides, what a child looks like is all gics -either the mom or the dad.)
Abraham ninched her chook “Imon’t ha

Abraham pinched her cheek. “I won’t be home to eat with you tonight. Be good.”
“Mm, I know.”
He’d been away from Falvaria for so long- of course he’d be busy now that he was back. Ste obediently sat aside.
Seeing her behaving so sweetly, Abraham kissed her on the forehead before finally getting up to leave.
He also took the report with him.
Ste noticed him tuck the paper into his pocket.
Marie came downstairs.
Seeing Ste sitting alone on the couch, she asked curiously, “Where’s my brother?”
“He went out.”
Ste took another bite of the jujube in her hand as she answered.
Marie frowned. “He still has the energy to go out?”

They’d just confirmed Ste was pregnant. She thought her brother would drop everything and hover around her instead.
After all, in the eyes of the entire Dawson family, Ste had the worst self–discipline.
She had irregr sleep habits, and she ate whatever she wanted.
Her mouth alone hadnded her in the
hospital more than once.
Ste didn’t reply. Instead, she leaned over the back of the couch to look up at Marie upstairs. “What did your brother say to you just now?”
She had meant to wait outside the study, but the two of them had talked for so long, and Ste got hungry–so she gave up.
Marie’s face darkened when she brought it up. “He said Derrick’s a good guy.” Ste: “Huh?”
<i>A </i><i>good </i><i>guy</i>?
<i>Was </i><i>he serious </i><i>when </i><i>he </i><i>said </i><i>that</i>?

Marie looked at her and asked, “Do you think he’s a good guy?”
“No.”
Ste didn’t even hesitate to shake her head.
But Marie said, “He is.”
<i>What </i><i>the </i><i>hell </i><i>was </i><i>going </i><i>on</i><i>…</i>?
Derrick being able toe and go in the Dawson family like this was already suspicious.
And now both her brother and Marie were calling him a good guy?
“You too? Seriously, what is this…”
Marie said, “Ste, we misunderstood him three years ago. Back then, under those circumstances, we didn’t even give him a chance to exin.”
That night had spiraled into chaos out of nowhere. Everything was a mess.
Who could’ve calmly sat down and listened to exnations?

Ste asked, “Then what really happened?”
Marie replied, “Derrick saved Mom and me. That night he told you to leave the Dawson family, there were a lot of Monroe people who came. He even sent you a message from another phone. Didn’t you see it?”
<i>What</i>? <i>No</i><i>,</i><i>/</i><i>she </i><i>never </i><i>saw </i><i>any </i><i>message</i>.
<i>And </i><i>Monroe</i>…
That guy had always been an enemy of the Dawson family. Lancelot was his man.
Ste said, “I seriously never saw any message. Are you sure he’s not making that up? And what about Kelly?”
“Derrick told you about Kelly back then?”
Ste shook her head. “Nope.”
“Then?”
“Kelly called me. She said you two were in Derrick’s hands and told me to get the hell out of the Dawson family.”
Marie nodded. “Yeah, that lines up.”

Derrick had meant for her to leave the Dawson family right away, and Kelly threw herself into the mix.
Naturally, Ste assumed Derrick had kidnapped her mother and Marie to threaten her
“But that doesn’t make sense,” Ste said, looking at Marie. “He said if I didn’t want you two to die, I had to leave the Dawson
family right away.”
<i>Wasn’t </i><i>that </i><i>a threat</i>?
That was a tant threat.
When someone you trusted suddenly said something so vicious…
Marie said softly, “If you’de to us and something dangerous happened, Mom and I would’ve gone looking for you. And in that moment…”
