Erica smiled warmly, "You sure have the same charisma as your dad! No wonder you managed to steal Sally's heart."
"Stop teasing me." Jeffery said.
"Alright, alright, I won't tease you guys anymore. Come over and have dinner. This is the result of a whole day's work with Camela. You better appreciate it." Erica said.
"Thank you," Jeffrey and Joy said in unison.
After a while, Joy suddenly felt nauseous and rushed to the bathroom. Everyone was shocked. Ines was the first to react, nudging Jeffrey, "Hey, go check on her. Your wife might be pregnant."
"What?" Jeffrey was taken aback.
"You're gonna be a dad." Ines couldn't help but laugh. She found it amusing how men could be so smart yet so clueless at times. Jeffrey was like this now, and Ethan was the same previously.
Hearing Ines' words, Jeffrey was utterly shocked, stammering, "That's impossible. We just got married."
"There's nothing impossible about it. Lots of people get pregnant on their wedding night. Honeymoon babies are pretty common." Camela laughed from the side.
"Exactly. Listen to Camela. She's practically an expert in this." Erica chimed in.
"I'll go check on her." Just as Jeffrey was about to stand up, Joy came back. Seeing everyone looking at her strangely, she couldn't help but explain, "I'm sorry for interrupting dinner. I've been having some stomach troubles recently and often feel nauseous."
"Joy, how long have you been feeling like this?" Ines asked with a smile.
"A few days." Joy answered.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Jeffrey frowned at Joy.
"It's not a big deal. There's no need to worry you." Joy comforted him.
Ines turned to Jeffrey, "Jaffery, you should take this seriously. Take your wife to the hospital for a check-up tomorrow. She might be pregnant."
"Izzy, are you saying I'm pregnant?" Joy was shocked, pointing to herself in disbelief.
"That's up to you to answer. Besides feeling nauseous, have you been feeling unwell anywhere else?" Ines asked.
