CEO's Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery novel Chapter 1230

Both Lydia and Quincy decided to keep the pregnancy a secret for now, especially from her parents.

Lydia was particularly anxious. She feared that if her mother found out, she might cause a scene at Quincy’s company.

But Lydia’s frequent absences from home, along with her early departure from the Ford family banquet, had made her mother increasingly worried.

One evening, her parents had a discussion and decided to call her back home.

In the Fay family living room, Mr. Fay sat on the sofa, glasses perched on his nose, pretending to read a newspaper. In reality, he was glancing toward the door, tapping his fingers as if waiting for someone.

“Now, Hubby, remember what we talked about. You can’t lose your temper this time! You promised to speak kindly to our daughter, no yelling. We don’t want another argument,” Mrs. Fay reminded him.

“I know, I know. Let’s wait until she’s back,” he responded, somewhat dismissively. After so many years together, Mrs. Fay was used to her husband’s stubborn pride and didn’t take it to heart.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up as she heard the front door click open.

“Lydia, you’re back! We’ve been waiting for you. What do you have there?” Mrs. Fay walked over to greet her.

Lydia, masking her surprise, paused for a moment before handing her mother the bag she was carrying. “Tea leaves, for Dad,” she said.

Mr. Fay wasn’t someone with many interests, but he did have a fondness for fine tea. Few people knew this about him. Outsiders would rack their brains trying to figure out the perfect gift, but as his daughter, Lydia knew exactly what to get. She had brought him his favorite tea.

When Mrs. Fay handed the tea to her husband, she noticed the slightest smile tugging at the corners of his lips, though he tried to hide it.

He still put on his usual stern act. “You’re always buying these impractical things,” he muttered, but as he spoke, he carefully placed the tea aside.
