"I don't need to sleep in," Giselle said.
Since Dorothea came to visit her, Giselle didn't want to seem impolite and quickly got out of bed. "Mrs. Kane, are you staying for dinner? I'll go downstairs and ask the housekeepers to prepare some extra dishes."
"Dinner this early? Wait, that's not important." Dorothea smiled kindly. "Since you're awake, let's go downstairs and chat."
"Sure," Giselle replied.
After changing her clothes and heading to the first floor, she realized that Dorothea wasn't the only visitor. Even Grace was there, lounging on the couch and eating fruits like she owned the place.
"Giselle, how have you been these past few days?" Grace asked, unusually warm, even smiling a little.
"I've been fine," Giselle responded.
"You haven't had another episode, right?" Dorothea asked again.
Giselle froze for a moment. "Mrs. Kane, you all know about my condition?"
"Of course, we know!" Grace said bluntly. "When you and Don came home that day, you had an episode in the living room. We all saw it and know you have… issues now."
Giselle's heart sank. It suddenly hit her that Donovan had lied to her that day. She had actually had a seizure in front of his family, and they all knew about it.
Giselle had intended to hide it from Dorothea, but now she only felt ashamed.
But then, Dorothea finally brought up what she had clearly been holding in.
"Giselle, are you and Don using birth control?"
Although the question felt intrusive, Giselle answered politely, "No, we're just letting things happen naturally. Besides, I can't easily conceive."
Dorothea nodded thoughtfully.
Grace saw Dorothea's hesitation and spoke for her. "Giselle, Dorothea and I didn't just come here today to check on your condition. We mainly wanted to talk about you two having a baby."
"A baby?" Giselle asked.
