Chapter 69

When we got home, Miss Woods came out to greet us with a huge smile on her face “Madam, you gave us all a fright! Go lie down quickly, I’ve made you soup!”

“What are you doing here, Miss Woods?” I was genuinely happy to see Miss Woods. She was one of the few people that had sincerely cared about me back in the old mansion, other than Grandma.

“Young Master requested that I come. Look at you! Why didn’t you announce your pregnancy? It’s such big news! What would we have done if something really bad had happened to you? Thank the heavens! Old Madam would be elated if she was here.” Miss Woods wiped some tears from her eyes. It was obvious that she was genuinely happy for me.
