370 Doubt Around Every Corner (Winona)

It's a gorgeous day. If I let myself forget last night's revelation, it feels like I'm adjusting to life abroad, kids in lessons, baby asleep, husband at work.

I lean into the warmth of that thought for a moment. Despite the uprooting, the shift to Brussels has been more promising than I expected.

I know she'll be digging her claws into whatever she can to maintain some level of control. It wouldn't be hard for her to insert someone among Gus's staff to watch, to listen, to report. Even Nexus Global employees.

And now, after last night... well, everything's shifted. I keep replaying the woman's words in my head, her touch on my stomach, her knowing look. But for all I know, they are in alliance with Judy. This might all be a ploy to unnerve me. It's working and I have to put a stop to that.

I know I'm not, but, if there's any chance I'm pregnant... if Judy catches wind of that, it'll be enough to tip Jayden over the edge, especially after hall pass week. The last thing we need is a wedge between us, not If I can prevent it. I can't keep this uncertainty hanging over me. If I am pregnant, I need to be honest with Jayden. If I'm not
