Under the Veil I Rule (Amara) novel Chapter 630

Elysia smiled. “It’s not just how I feel—Keith told me himself.”

“It’s been a few months already,” Elysia continued. “He came to me and said he liked you. I was honestly happy to hear it. He’s a great guy, and the two of you have always been so close. I was hoping he’d pursue you and you’d end up together.”

“But after I found out about his parents, I stopped wishing for you to marry him. Still, I didn’t say anything because I didn’t want it to affect your friendship. Who would’ve thought you’d figure it out on your own?”

“…”

Amara was stunned.

So Keith really did like her—and he’d told Elysia about it long before.

Suddenly, she remembered something: when Keith first found out she was pregnant, he’d been extremely upset and even tried to pressure her into getting an abortion. At the time, she thought he was being unreasonable and got angry with him.

Thinking about it now, his reaction made perfect sense—he liked her!

If a man is in love with a woman, why would he want her to have another man’s child?

But later, Keith had come to accept it. Why? Was it because his feelings for her were so deep?

Amara opened her mouth, but a wave of panic and helplessness washed over her.

Elysia sighed and took her hand. “I really did hope you two would end up together. Remember when you said you needed someone for a fake marriage? I kept recommending Keith because I knew he truly liked you.”

“If he could marry you, he’d be thrilled—and you two might have actually had a chance together. But I never expected his parents to be so overbearing.”

Elysia frowned. “I’ve asked around these past few days. Edith and Nathan are incredibly old-fashioned. You absolutely must not marry Keith. If you do, you’ll just end up miserable.”

Amara gave a wry smile and glanced down at Elysia’s hand gripping hers—her friend’s fingers were almost white.

She asked, “What’s going on with you, though? Are you sick?”

She leaned over and touched Elysia’s forehead. Thankfully, it didn’t feel warm.

“…”

Amara was shocked. How could Elysia be pregnant?

Most women realize they’re pregnant after missing their period for over a month—they’d go get checked out right away.
