"Avery Jane, where’s Mr. Hughes? Quickly inform him, Evelyn is pregnant, it can’t be delayed any longer; she won’t be able to fit into the wedding dress in two months."
The greedy voice on the other end of the phone was filled with unparalleled excitent, even across the radio waves you could feel Arthur Yates’ heart full of exhilaration and excitent, his voice even trembled as he spoke.
"Are you listening? Quickly give the phone to Mr. Hughes, there are many things that need to be properly arranged now."
Arthur Yates was eager to tell Joshua Hughes the good news, his risky move had indeed paid off. So many years, so many won, yet his daughter was the first one to bear a child. How could this not make him excited?
"But he’s not with ."
Avery Jane’s mind went blank. Evelyn was pregnant with Joshua Hughes’ child. When did this happen?
Suddenly, her heart ached violently, she didn’t know how to speak, only chanically responding.
"You must go find him imdiately, Avery Jane. Don’t play any tricks, otherwise even if Mr. Hughes protects you, it won’t be of any use. The Hughes Family places great importance on the next generation, this is the first, do you understand?" The voice on the other end was eerily cold, sending chills down her ears.
The most professional gynecological hospital, the most accurate and flawless examination; his daughter really was pregnant with Joshua Hughes’ child.
Ambition swelled rapidly like a balloon.
Arthur Yates now felt he should, as a parent, insist that Joshua Hughes marry his daughter right away.
And the matter was already underway, it couldn’t be delayed any longer lest dreams beco too fanciful; now, it was most important for his daughter to secure the position of Young Madam of the Hughes family.
"Avery Jane, you need to contact Mr. Hughes imdiately, tell him the good news, and relay that Evelyn and the child are both thinking of him."
Arthur Yates was very satisfied with Avery Jane’s handling of this matter this ti.
Finally, Avery didn’t disappoint the Yates family after all the years they cared for her.
anwhile, Harper Johnson was already making introductions.
"Madam Hughes, it’s Harper, it seems it’s really ti to call you mother-in-law."
Madam Hughes sat in another house of the Hughes family, answering the phone, her brows slightly furrowed.
"What, you don’t know yet? Well, you probably don’t actually know, Joshua might not know either, but our Evelyn is pregnant, we’re all about to beco grandmothers."
Harper Johnson’s words hit Madam Hughes’ heart like a mighty atomic bomb.
How could this be?
Joshua considered heirs more important than anyone, she didn’t believe her son would be fond of a girl like Evelyn Yates.
But now there was a child; having a child ant he would have to enter into marriage. The hereditary elders in the Hughes family wouldn’t allow him to continue like this. Although their shares were few, their words still carried so weight.
"How long has it been? Are you sure?" Grace Roe’s gaze darkened.
The eldest son held a grudge against her for life, but she always wanted him to live better, just a bit better.
But the Yates family was truly not a good match; did she make a wrong decision half a year ago? Is this karma?
"Of course, we’ve already checked at St. Mary’s Hospital, it’s definitely confird."
Harper Johnson was overjoyed to the extre, recently the old master said he wanted to formally marry her, then for so unknown reason it was delayed.
Now none of that mattered, the dignity and awe of being Joshua Hughes’ mother-in-law surpassed even the title of the Yates family’s first lady.
"I will go ask Joshua."
Outside, the sun was slowly being shielded by clouds; Grace Roe hung up the phone with so concern, not knowing what sort of stir this would cause.
But before she could ask Joshua Hughes, the Yates family had already spread the news through others...
Arthur Yates was well aware of the stakes in such matters, only through external pressure could he ensure Joshua Hughes would hold the wedding as quickly as possible, because he could even see that Joshua Hughes was not deeply enamored with his daughter.
