Chapter 502:

Hearing the voice, Elyse slowly opened her eyes and asked in a soft voice, “Irving, why are you here?”

Now that Elyse was awake, Irving hurried over to her side and, with a concerned touch to her belly, he stammered, “Are—are you pregnant? Is it true? How far along are you? Could you actually have the baby next month?”

His barrage of questions brought a smile to Elyse’s face. She gently patted the back of Irving’s hand and responded, “Irving, pregnancy lasts about 40 weeks. How could I possibly give birth next month?”

Irving scratched his hair, embarrassed. “Oops, I’m just too excited.”

He then turned, pointing to Clive who stood behind him, and asked with a hint of annoyance, “Is this your husband? Did he get you pregnant?”

Clive, looking rather helpless, reiterated, “I’m really not her husband. You’ve got it all wrong.”

With a sullen turn, Irving asked, “He isn’t?”

Elyse shook her head. “No, he’s a friend of my husband.”

Irving shot Elyse a piercing look, slumped into the chair, and demanded, “Where’s your husband? Tell him to come here. I need to speak with him.”

“He’s in the next room over,” Elyse responded, her eyes wide with sincerity.
