"Don't worry. He never loved me. He won't keep looking for me. Give it some time, and he'll give up," Yvette replied. She felt Xavier was simply pursuing her because of his unwillingness to accept the situation. She had left him a large sum of money, though.

Kiki stared at the ceiling for a moment before asking, "So, do you plan to find Zac and Noah a father figure?"

Yvette was taken aback by the question.

Over these years, she had been alone, and her focus had been solely on raising her two children. She had never considered remarriage.

Kiki's eyes went wide. "Did you really get pregnant?"

Yvette nodded slightly. "Yes. I went to the hospital for a check-up as soon as I arrived here. I'm already one month pregnant."

Kiki, somewhat curious, placed her hand on Yvette's abdomen. "That's great. Noah can have his surgery in another nine months."

"Actually, it's eight months," Yvette corrected her, explaining the misconception about pregnancy lasting ten months.

"I see." Kiki retracted her hand and then updated Yvette on the news from back home.
