Matthewâs expression did not change. âSorry, what?â
âPregnant, you know, have a baby,â Sophia said.
âBabyâ Matthewâs expression froze. He did not expect his grandmother to say this. âWhy did you say that?â
âOf course, I can tell. Sophia was very confident and even a little smug. âDonât pretend to be stupid. Iâve been there before. Although Valerieâs stomach is flat, sheâs pregnant Her appearance and aura are different. Sheâs probably pregnant.â
Surprise flashed across Matthewâs eyes again.
When Matthew did not speak for a long time, Sophia was puzzled. She sighed. âDid I make a mistake! It canât beâ¦
Mathew did not want to complicate things and immediately interrupted Sophia. âGrandma, you should rest more. Tomorrow, Valerie will report to Noria Group. She will probably be busy for a while. If sheâs not busy this weekend, Ell arrange a family partyâ
Sophiaâs
is attention was successfully diverted. She smiled styly. âAlright. Itâs a good thing that Valerie is going to Noria Group. The two of you can take care of each other if youâre close. In warning you, assign some easy work to my granddaughterâinâlaw. Donât tire her out.â
Matthew didnât agree. After all, Valene was not the kind of person who liked to slack off.
âBy the way, the two of you might meet frequently in Noria Group. Will she know who you are!â Sophia asked.
âThe future experience store is quite a distance away from the headquarters. Her work has nothing to do with the headquarters, so she doesnât have the chance to come over Matthew said.
Sophia remarked, âOh, Matthew. How long do you plan to hide it from Valerie
Matthew interrupted, âYou donât have to worry about this.â
Sophia knew her grandsonâs personality and could only sigh helplessly. âAlright. I wonât worry. Iâll tell your grandfather the good news now and get the kitchen to prepare some ingredients in advance.â
Matthew argued, âGrandma, this weekend isnât confirmed. It doesnât mean that weâll go back this weekend.
It was too late. Sophia had already hung up the phone in high spirits. She even wondered if she should ask the Grant familyâs chef to teach her a few simple dishes in advance while there was still a week left. When the time came, she would show off a little,
Matthew was long used to Sophiaâs wild ideas so he left her be
However, after hanging up the phone, Matthew remembered what Sophia had just said. He could not help but look in the direction of Valerieâs room. For a moment, he had mixed feelings.
Matthew remembered that Valerie was holding the babyâs clothes gift box in the corridor just now. Although Katherine said it belonged to her and Valerie was only helping her carry it, he still felt it was strange.
Speaking of which, Matthew had neglected something for a long time. He did not know why Valerie married him in the first place. He wondered if it was because her mother urged her to get married that she was forced into a corner. Perhaps there was another reason, such as pregnancy-
They had sex that night. It was not impossible for Valerie to be pregnant, but Matthew had never thought of it this way until his grandmotherâs words today, which stunned him.
However, Sophia was only guessing. It might not be accurate.
Matthew had always been straightforward and did not like to beat around the bush. He immediately walked toward Valerieâs room. He was about to knock on the door when a retching sound suddenly came from inside the room.
Matthew was stunned. It sounded like morning sickness. Even he, who had experienced many storms, froze. Valerie was really pregunt. Matthew thought, Does that mean Iâm going to be a father? Iâll have a child? Matthewâs eyes widened in disbelief. It was the first time such a huge emotion appeared on his usually cold face.
