Chapter 585 Finale

“All right. I’ll go wait for you at home then. Don’t work too late, okay?” Preoccupied with how he wanted to care for the daughter that was forthcoming, Michael was too distracted to listen to anything that I was saying.

“Okay. I’ll be home early tonight.” Michael smiled in assent. Looking at him now, he might have accompanied me home right away had he not been tied down by so much work on his hands.

Josephine was already waiting for me when I got back to the Shaw residence. She approached immediately the minute I stepped in and regarded me with jovial anticipation.

“What comes of the test results, Anna? Are you pregnant?” Josephine looked at me excitedly as though she already had the answer. “Your intuition was simply spot-on, Mom.” I smiled broadly.

 

“Oh my. This is simply wonderful. Now our little Amaury is going to have himself a little brother or sister.” She was all smiles, and the joy was also palpable in her eyes.

I shook my head in disapproval. Being the one who was pregnant, I thought that I ought to be the one who was happiest about it. Yet, it would seem that the members of the Shaw family were even more over the moon than I was.

“I’m tired, Mom. I think I would like to head upstairs to rest.”

After I cast a smile at Josephine, I went on to make my way upstairs as I was genuinely in some degree of discomfort.

“Go on ahead then. I’d have the housekeeper prepare something nutritious for you later.”

Owing to my status, Josephine did not mind my manners. On the contrary, she eagerly went on to get the housekeeper to make something nice for me.

I was not sure whether it was because of my pregnancy that Michael came home very early this day. He even walked in clutching a huge bouquet of roses in his hands. Thinking back, it had been a while since he had gotten any flowers for me.
