My Beloved Has Risen from Death’s Embrace

Chapter 492

Just a few days before heading to Brightwood, a little incident unfolded.

Xanthea was representing Fred and his team at a business event whèn, halfway through, her stomach started acting up, making her feel

nauseous.

Eloise, seeing her distress, gasped, “Xan, you’re not pregnant, are you?”

“What?”

“OMG, am I going to be a godmother at such a young age?”

“How could I?”

Before she could finish her sentence, Eloise had dragged her off to the hospital.

“Eloise, let go of me, it’s impossible.”

Orion had always been meticulous with protection, almost obsessively so, as if he were terrified of her getting pregnant.

“But it’s better to check, just in case, right?”

Adopting a better–safe–than–sorry approach, the doctor confirmed it was just food poisoning.

Xanthea: “Told you it wasn’t possible. Must’ve been the not–so–fresh fruit.”

“B–but,” Eloise stuttered guiltily, “I thought you were pregnant and kind of spread the word.”

“What? You blabbermouth, do you have any idea the trouble you’ve caused.”

She was cut off by Orion, who arrived in a panic, gripping her arm with concern, scanning her up and down with a worried frown.
