Chapter 55 Gambling With The Child In Her Womb

An hour had already passed since breakfast.

Lenora guessed that Gerald had already awakened, so she went back to the ward with Zachary.

At that time, two more people had joined the hospital ward. One was Zachary's second aunt, Griselda, and the other was a slightly more distant cousin of his mother, Tamara.

There were additional boxed gifts in the corner, clearly left by visitors who had come to visit..

"Oh, look, Zack and Nora are here."

"Aunt Griselda, Aunt Tamara," Lenora and Zachary greeted them.

Judging by the situation, Gerald was still not awake.

"Go and sit by Grandma," Zachary said to Lenora.

A coffee table and two stools were situated in the middle of the room. Fearing that Lenora might not see clearly, he purposely guided her across the room, settling her down on the couch next to Allison. "The affection between young couples is truly wonderful." Griselda chuckled as she observed the scene.

Griselda also saw the news about Zachary and Susanna.

However, she didn't take it to heart. Isn't this just how men are? No matter how much they flirt outside, they always end up returning home.

"That's right. Zack and Nora are the most well-matched couple I've ever seen," Tamara said, her face full of smiles and a hint of flattery.

Her connection with the Fuller family was somewhat distant, yet her entire family depended on the scraps of business that fell through the cracks of the Fuller family's fingers for their livelihood. As soon as they heard that Gerald was ill and hospitalized, they immediately rushed over to express their concern, hoping to make a good impression in front of Gerald, Allison, and Zachary.

Zachary gave a faint smile, exchanging pleasantries with Tamara. "How is Uncle Oscar been doing lately? I heard he recently acquired a small factory..."

Seeing that Zachary showed no displeasure, Tamara took the initiative to join in the conversation, her face glowing red, and quickly responded, "Yes, yes. He is considering expanding his business into the luggage industry..." Zachary exchanged a few words, and it was visibly clear that Tamara was extremely pleased.

Unsure of where the conversation had veered off to, the topic had once again diverged.

Tamara's gaze shifted between Lenora and Zachary, and then she said, "Zack is almost thirty this year, isn't he? And Nora isn't young anymore, either. When do you two plan on having a child?"

After Tamara said that, both Griselda and Allison turned their gazes toward Lenora and Zachary,

Griselda echoed, "Indeed, it's about time you two have a child. Nora is at the perfect age. She would recover quickly after giving birth."

Lenora and Zachary exchanged a glance.

Unconsciously, Lenora's hand rested on her lower abdomen.

She already had a child, but she dared not let the child's father know.

Zachary gave a light smile calmly. "We don't have plans to have children yet."
