The Villainess Needs a Hug (Ivy Windsor) novel Chapter 870

"Is Dr. Ludwig grinning from ear to ear? And his parents must be even more thrilled. They finally get another grandchild," Katrina teased, equally happy for her friend.

Thinking of Adela's reaction that night, Ivy couldn't help but smile. "You're right. Her greatest wish was to hold a grandchild before she passes away. Now, it looks like that wish will most likely come true."

"What do you mean, 'most likely'? Of course it will!" Katrina corrected with a laugh.

Ivy was about to say that it was still early in the pregnancy and she shouldn't get ahead of herself, but then she thought better of it. She didn't want to jinx it or put any negative thoughts out there. So, she nodded firmly. "You're right. Of course it will! I'm going for an ultrasound tomorrow to see how the little one is developing."

"I'm taking my mom for a check-up tomorrow at the same hospital. I have to come see your little sprout," Katrina said, excited to be part of the experience.

"Sure, come by if you have time."

They ordered their food. While they ate, Ivy asked, "How are things with you and Naylor? He hasn't been to the hospital to see Jamison these past few days. I haven't had a chance to see him. Maybe he's feeling too guilty to show his face."

At the mention of Naylor, the smile vanished from Katrina's face. "He's on a business trip. He left the day before yesterday. I don't know when he'll be back."

Ivy looked at her friend, studying her expression. "Did he tell you he was leaving? Does that mean you two made up?"

"I don't know. He sent me a message on WhatsApp to let me know, but I didn't reply," Katrina said quietly. It was clear she cared deeply for him.
