Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 1931

Hearing Channing's name, the smile on Coralie's face froze.

"Sorry." Juniper was quick-lipped, casually bringing it up. "Can't forget him, right?"

"I will," Coralie managed a difficult smile, shifting the topic. "By the way, Juniper, with your medical expertise, can you tell the gender yet?"

"Want to know what the little thing is?"

Little thing?

Coralie pursed her lips, her mood suddenly brightening. "Juniper, this is my baby! Not just a 'thing'!"

"You're quite protective!" Juniper smiled faintly, leaned in, and whispered in her ear.

Coralie looked at her in surprise, her expression dazed.

A baby boy?

If that was the case, would he grow up looking like Channing?

——

New Year's Eve.

The sound of fireworks echoed relentlessly outside the window, while the house was filled with the lively warmth of a family reunion.

Dinner was winding down.

Gathering her courage, Coralie stood up. "I have something to tell everyone."

In an instant, the chatter ceased, and all eyes turned to her in unison.

"I..."

Just as she opened her mouth, her stomach suddenly churned, and a wave of intense nausea hit her.

"Ugh—"

Unable to hold it back, Coralie bolted straight for the bathroom.

When she finally emerged, everyone was sitting on the sofa, staring blankly at her.

Feeling guilty, Coralie bit her lip and murmured, "I'm having a baby."

"???"

Except for Juniper, she watched as everyone else's jaws slowly dropped.

"Who's the father?" Melvin asked tentatively, gulping hard.
