Night of Destiny
Chapter 2037
Ellen could feel her cheeks on fire, so she averted her gaze. âI didnât think it could happen, but it turns
out Iâm pregnant from that night.â
The moment she turned back to look at Jared, resignation and confusion replaced the emotions in her
eyes. This wasnât in the plan. What should I do?
He was overjoyed at her words. At that moment, he forgot about his injuries as he reached out his
hands to wrap around her body. âWhat did you just say? Are we expecting a child?â
âHey, your wounds! You might hurt yourself. You wonât want them to reopen.â She tried to push him
away. He only tightened his arms around her as surprise fully dawned on him. âDonât worry. It doesnât
hurt at all. Iâm just too happy.â
Ellen drew her hands back and leaned against him at ease, celebrating the good news with him.
However, a little confusion welled within. her. âWhat are we supposed to do?â
âIâll give you a wedding as soon as possible. Weâll build a happy family for our child,â Jared replied in a
low tone. Ellen couldnât help but worry. âB-But I havenât even met your family.â
âRest assured. Theyâll be back soon once I tell them.â Jared rested his forehead against hers. with a
smile. âThey are going to love you.â His words gave her reassurance, so she nodded. âAll right.â
At night, after Ellen went to bed, Jared headed into the study room with his phone and dialed a number.
âJared, hello? Are you staying up late for work again?â the callee asked on the other side of the phone,
apparently a little vexed.
âMom, I have good news to share.â âWhat is it about?â
âYou and Dad are going to be grandparents soon.â âWhat?â exclaimed Anastasia. The next moment,
Jared heard hurried footsteps from the other side. âElliot! Our son has something to tell you.â
Meanwhile, Anastasia was walking toward a manor garden in Dansbury with her phone. Elliot was
playing fetch with a Doberman on the lawn.
Turning around, he saw Anastasia rushing over to him. He immediately tossed the frisbee aside to
greet her. She wasnât watching her step
at all. Thus, when she tripped over something, she fell forward at Elliot. He reached out his hands to
help her stand on her feet before. affectionately expressing his concern, âYouâre quite clumsy for your
age.â
Jared couldnât help but curve his lips into a smile when he heard Elliotâs voice. As his parents were this
lovey-dovey since young, he wasnât surprised to hear Elliot express affection to Anastasia.
Anastasia put the phone on speaker and gestured for Elliot to pay attention. âYour son has good news
to share. Go ahead, Jared. Tell him.â âDad, Mom, you are going to be grandparents soon,â Jared
repeated.
Anastasia covered her mouth with a hand in joy. Noticing the shocked look on Elliotâs face, she burst
into laughter. âAll right, Jared. Weâll come home right away. I canât wait to see my grandson. Willow is
coming along too.â
âIâm looking forward to that! By the way, if you feel like learning more about her, you can search âEllen
Reissâ in domestic news online.â
âGeez, Jared, I donât even know you have a girlfriend. How dare you hide it from us?â Elliot feigned
anger but he couldnât hide the joy in his tone.
âDonât worry, Dad. I inherit my good taste from. you. You can believe in me.â Jaredâs words put
Anastasia in a good mood. She reminded him, âAll right. We believe in you. Weâll be back soon.â
âAll right. Iâll see you at home.â After that, Jared hung up the phone. A big dog pushed its body. against
Anastasia and asked for pets. After giving him a good pat, she pulled Elliot to the chairs on the side
and began to search for domestic news online.
Struggling to contain her excitement, Anastasia typed Ellenâs name in the search bar before proceeding
with her search. Countless search results that showed up on the screen left her dumbfounded. Is this
Ellen girl a celebrity? It seems like sheâs quite popular in the country.
However, she widened her eyes in disbelief when she saw Ellenâs title. A champion? She took a closer
look. More precisely, a chess champion.
She randomly clicked on one of the images. A high-definition picture popped out, showing a woman
with a gentle but determined face sitting opposite her opponent. The woman had delicate facial
features and a lean body. Sheâs a lovely girl!
