The winter was getting colder. When Minerva came out of the hospital after a checkup, she shivered in the cold wind.

Abigail took off the scarf from her neck and wrapped it around her.

Minerva quickly refused. "There's no need, Auntie. It's so cold. If you give me the scarf, you'll feel cold."

Abigail looked at her helplessly and couldn't help but blame her. "Since you knew that you would feel cold under this weather, why didn't you wear more clothes? You know that you are pregnant, but you still don't pay more attention."

After being reprimanded by her, Minerva didn't dare say a word of defiance and silently accepted it.

Abigail helped her to keep the scarf on her. As she spoke, waves of hot air came out of her mouth. She looked at the buildings around her and said, "It's almost the New Year. I guess that I will accompany you abroad for this New Year."

Upon hearing this, Minerva was stunned. She followed her gaze and looked over subconsciously.

"Has time passed so fast? Was it going to be the New Year soon?"

She gently stroked her stomach. By New Year, the baby in her stomach would be exactly three months old.

Minerva thought of her distant son, Beanie.

She hadn't seen him for a long time.

Furthermore, since she had moved in to stay with Maddox, she rarely had video calls with him. She wondered how he was doing. Did he miss her very much?

Abigail said, "Well, don't just stand here like a fool. Get ready to go back."

"Okay."

The two of them held each other's hands and walked forward. As soon as they walked to the side of the road, a car stopped in front of them. It didn't look like a taxi or a private car. Soon, the door opened, and several men gathered around.
