Chapter 904 Living off His Wife

"Has it been four months already?"

As expected.

The next night, during the celebration banquet, Emelie shocked everyone when she revealed that she was already pregnant while politely declining to join in the toast.

This was even more surprising than the news of William's successful surgery.

The truth was only Emelie, Mona, and Ashley were unaware of William's surgery. Elias was left out on purpose because everyone knew him too well.

If Elias knew, Ashley would definitely find out. And Elias never kept secrets from Ashley. Once Ashley knew, how could Emelie not know?

However, apart from her two close friends, no one else knew that Emelie was pregnant.

The most stunned was Elias.

"Honey, you kept a secret from me?"

Ashley pretended not to hear him.

For the rest of the meal, Elias remained sulky and was stuck in his own thoughts.

Ashley had kept a secret from him. His honey had actually kept a secret from him. How could she have had a secret that she didn't tell him?

No one bothered to comfort him.

Next in line were the two moms.

Yennifer thought that she had done a great job helping William keep the surgery a secret from Emelie. But then Emelie had gone ahead and kept her pregnancy a secret from all of them.

When they realized that she had been juggling her early pregnancy with her year-end work and two major cases, the moms felt nothing but heartache.
