In the yard, the charcoal in the barbecue grill was already burning, and the skewered food sizzled soon after being placed on it.
Ian Shelby introduced Vera Ford to Justin Kingston and Mia Lane, and they also greeted Uncle Dalton.
Before long, Jocelyn Morgan ca out, "Ladies and gentlen! The tea is ready!"
"The barbecue here is almost done!" Vera Ford glanced over at her.
The two won’s gazes briefly t.
Soon, Hailey Hale also ca out, "Is there grilled corn? Grilled corn takes longer to cook, so you can start it early. It’s very sweet, which is why I specially bought a few extra ears."
"I’m best at grilling corn, let do it." Mia Lane approached.
Vera Ford couldn’t help but gaze at her a few tis, noting how pretty she was, married well, and her figure hadn’t changed at all after having two kids — truly the kind of woman others envy.
Ian Shelby soon picked up a few skewers of grilled beef and began sprinkling cumin and chili powder.
The wind blew, and the aroma of the at spread everywhere.
"Wow! Slls amazing!!" Gigi set aside her tablet and quickly ran over, "Is it ready?"
"Yes, here you go!" Ian Shelby handed her two skewers, "Dolly, co over quickly!"
Just as Hailey Hale was about to reach for a skewer, the overwhelming scent of at hit her, causing her stomach to churn. She quickly covered her mouth with her hand!
"Hailey, what’s wrong?" Jocelyn Morgan, who was closest, supported her.
"Ugh!"
The wind continued to blow, and the scent of at was inescapable. Unable to bear it, Hailey Hale turned away, covering her mouth, and ran off.
"Hailey!"
Finn Morgan anxiously chased after her, holding her shoulders, "What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
She bent over the trash bin, dry heaving.
Mia Lane quickly brought tissues and bottled water over, "Hailey, what’s going on?"
Hailey Hale rinsed her mouth with water and collected herself, "I don’t know either. The sll of that at makes want to vomit."
Mia Lane handed the tissues to Finn Morgan.
She took Hailey Hale’s wrist and placed her other hand directly to check her pulse.
"Could she be pregnant?" Jocelyn Morgan’s eyes lit up with joy.
Hailey was montarily stunned!
Finn Morgan’s heart raced — pregnant?? About to be a dad?
Mia Lane remained calm and composed, while everyone’s eyes were on her face, waiting for her to announce the answer.
Traditional Chinese pulse diagnosis is quite accurate.
About a minute later, Mia Lane released her hand, glanced around at everyone filled with anticipation, then focused on Hailey Hale.
Hailey Hale held her breath, staring intently at her.
"Congratulations, Hailey, Finn, you’re moving up a level," Mia Lane said with a glowing smile, eyes shimring like soft starlight.
Finn Morgan and Hailey Hale were overjoyed, stunned for a few seconds.
"Yay!" Jocelyn Morgan was absolutely delighted, "That’s wonderful! Congratulations, congratulations! I’ll call to tell Uncle and Aunt!" Saying this, she excitedly pulled out her phone.
Then Justin Kingston led the applause, and everyone got over their surprise and happily clapped their hands.
In no ti, applause thundered!
"Congratulations!"
Everyone bead smiles of blessing at them.
Finn Morgan turned and hugged Hailey tightly, overwheld, "We’re having a baby, Hailey, we have a baby!" He was thrilled like a child.
Hailey Hale blushed slightly, reaching out to hug him, "Destiny." Excited and nervous, surrounded by so many people.
"We’re having a baby!" Finn Morgan excitedly spun around hugging Hailey!
The mountain breeze blew, spinning the leaves down like dancing partners.
Such joy, shared with friends, multiplies the happiness.
