There was a feeling of satisfaction whenever she thought about becoming a mother.
The thought of a new life in her belly, belonging to her and Sebastian Brenand, made her heart melt.
“I will work harder in the future. Whatever other people have, I must make sure my wife and child have it, too,” Sebastian declared.
“Also, let’s try our best to keep your pregnancy a secret. Be more careful every day, as well. I’m worried my terrible parents might do something to you,” he added.

“I will ask Stephen Harris to keep it a secret. I trust him. He’s never been the kind to spill secrets,” he went on.
Rachel nodded in agreement.

“Let’s also keep this a secret from Stanley Batton and the others. We may be close friends, but there’s less risk of the news spreading if we don’t tell them,” he added.
