Chapter 206

By the time Nyx and the others rushed over, the Cook family was squatting on the ground, all intently watching Chubby. Dressed in a tiny yellow net vest, Chubby hadn’t hatched yet but was happily rolling around on the floor, exploring every corner of the unfamiliar house.

“Chubby,” shouted Nyx.

Hearing Nyx’s voice, it froze for a second before speeding up and rolling straight toward her.

Nyx ran forward and scooped it up. She was scared to death. She thought, “Thank goodness it is okay.

“Its name is Chubby? What a fitting name–it’s so fat!” Archie burst into laughter. “What kind of egg is this? Is it your pet or

As he spoke, he looked up at Nyx, his gaze landing on her flat stomach. His voice instantly changed. “Wait… Sis, what’s going

on?”

His face turned pale, and he nearly jumped up in shock.

Nyx looked down. She had been in such a rush that she forgot to disguise herself.

Normally, whenever she met Archie, she would stuff Chubby under her clothes, making herself look pregnant. But now, her stomach was perfectly flat.

Archie broke out in a cold sweat. He opened his mouth to ask but didn’t dare to.

He thought, ‘Did she have a miscarriage? Is it because Erik wasn’t careful enough?‘

He cautiously studied Nyx and noticed that she did look unwell–her complexion was pale, and she seemed exhausted. He cursed inwardly, ‘Damn. Erik is simply inhuman.’

Archie took a deep breath and glared angrily at Erik.

Layla had guessed part of the truth. She grabbed Nyx’s hand and asked softly, “Have you been raising this egg as your child?”

The egg was dressed up delicately and adorably, clearly well cared for. The fact that Nyx and the others had found it so quickly proved how much they valued it.

Layla figured that Nyx must have lost her child, and unable to bear the grief, she had taken in this pet as emotional support.

Layla gently squeezed Nyx’s hand, feeling sorry for her. “When did this happen? Why didn’t you tell me? You need to take

of yourself after childbirth too. Your child will come back to you.”

care

While comforting Nyx, Layla started thinking about finding some supplements for her recovery.

Nyx felt a little awkward. She cleared her throat and decided to tell the truth. “I didn’t have a miscarriage. Chubby is my biological child.”

The moment she spoke, silence filled the air.

Layla thought she had to be joking, or maybe she was just delusional from the shock.

Archie, on the other hand, jumped to a different conclusion. “Huh? What do you mean, sis? Are you a fairy?”

In a daze, he recalled Nyx’s incredible strength. ‘It’s definitely not human,‘ he thought.
