Chapter 889

Evadne was at a loss for words, staring blankly as the realization hit her. Jason, that rascal, what was he thinking acting so recklessly on purpose?

"Nydia, how did you find out?" Evadne finally managed to ask.

"After that night, I just haven't been feeling right, constantly tired and sluggish. I thought I was just run-down from not resting enough, so I didn't think much of it.

But recently, I started feeling nauseous in the mornings, and that's when I knew something was off. Two nights ago, I sneaked out to buy a pregnancy test, and I took it yesterday morning."

Nydia sniffled, her nose turning
