Merrick turned her around at once and held her face with both hands. “My dear Gillian, are you really carrying my child?”

They stood very close. Gillian could see her own reflection clearly in his pupils.

“Yes. The fetus could not form solidly so soon at first. I was trapped in the white griffin arena last time. which made the child take shape ahead of schedule.”

Gillian watched his expression closely. Joy swept over him first, then wild excitement, followed by cautious restraint, and finally calmness.

She could not tell what thoughts ran through his mind. Yet she knew he was truly delighted by the news of the child.

“Gillian, you have suffered a lot. Thank you for telling me this.”

Merrick felt a surge of fear. If he had not cleared up all misunderstandings, would she leave quietly with his child?

She could easily head for Capital Planet, leaving him no way to trace her.

He understood why Elara was so hostile to him and could not help laughing.

He planned to tell Mabel about Gillian’s pregnancy. Then Elara would have no reason to drive him away.

This was his best safeguard. Mabel would never let a child grow up without a father.

When they walked downstairs, Merrick wore a happy look. He could not take his eyes off Gillian.

Gillian felt uneasy under his gaze. She wondered if she should have kept the news secret.

They found two unexpected guests in the living room besides Elara and Mabel.

A fluffy little fox curled up in Elara’s arms. It looked upset the moment it spotted Gillian.

Elara tapped its head gently. She let out a cold snort when she saw Merrick walking down while shielding Gillian.

After Sylas came and explained things to her, she knew Merrick would not be driven away.

She never expected Merrick to give such precious life-saving medicine to Sylas, who was an incomplete, failed serpent creature.

She thought the act was foolish.

Still, she no longer opposed Gillian being with Merrick. He cherished his companions so deeply, and he would surely protect Gillian with his life.

“Gillian, Tristan and Sylas came while you two went upstairs to change clothes. They said they need to see,

Commander Cole.”

Merrick squeezed Gillian’s palm, hinting for her to ask Sylas about the used antidote.

Gillian shook her head. “I trust you. There is no need to ask.”

True feelings could not be hidden. Lies and pretence existed outside, yet his sincerity in this moment was

real.

Sylas knew well why he came here. He smiled when Gillian chose not to inquire further. He knew Gillian had chosen to trust Merrick.

Elara pinched Tristan’s soft ears. “Tris, Gillian is my younger sister. You have treated her badly these days How will you make up for it?”

Tristan felt utterly stunned the second he learned of their relation.

He could not believe the sharp-witted female he had opposed all along was Elara’s sister. All his actions had been aimed at his own kin.

“Gillian, I apologize. I never knew you were Elara’s sister. I admit all my wrongdoings.”

Tristan spoke in a sincere tone.

“I was arrogant and biased. I looked down on females and thought the S-class wrist terminal was wasted in your hands. I hope you can forgive me.”

Tristan was domineering by nature, but he never harmed his own people.

He had broken his own principle this time. Staying beside Gillian also made him mature a lot.

He realized she was far from ordinary. She was an outstanding cleric bound to surpass Elara in time.

“It is fine. I also apologize for inflicting the taint on you. Let us call it even.”

Gillian smiled happily. She had never suffered any loss in their conflicts.

She gained billions of coins in her account, all thanks to Tristan. She would never turn down such benefits.

“Elara, Tristan and I became close through conflicts. It has been quite an experience, Major Lawson.”

Gillian smoothed things over and signaled Tristan to speak properly. She hoped both sides could keep a decent stance before Elara.

Tristan let out a low huff. He only came here out of respect for Elara.

The Lawson family in Firefox City ranked among the wealthiest clans across all Elemental Cities. Their immense wealth and powerful influence drew countless followers.
