The wrong Woman novel by Ginny Not Genie novel Chapter 973

Mervyn nodded. "Yeah, it doesn't matter anymore."

"What are you talking about?" Candice asked, confused. "Why don't I understand?"

Elio smiled gently and whispered, "You don't need to understand. Come on, let's have a drink with Mom and Dad."

"Okay." Candice picked up her glass of juice, waved goodbye to Mervyn, and walked toward Michaela and Tristan.

Mervyn watched as they walked away, unable to resist taking another big gulp of his drink.

Michaela was sitting gracefully in her wheelchair, maintaining her usual elegance.

Elio and Candice approached and greeted politely, "Mom, Dad, let's toast."

Michaela forced a smile, her gaze on Candice was affectionate yet lacking genuine approval and admiration. Deep down, she believed Candice wasn't capable enough for Elio.

Nonetheless, it didn't affect their relationship, as no one cared about Michaela's opinion.

On the other hand, Tristan was delighted. He raised his glass enthusiastically, showering them with blessings and well-wishes, especially emphasizing, "May you soon be blessed with children!"

Candice blushed and smiled shyly, nodding as she sipped her juice.

Elio, barely able to contain his laughter, looked at Candice lovingly.

Keeping the secret was tough, but Candice insisted they tell no one until after the first trimester when the pregnancy was stable.

Remarkably, Candice's body showed no signs of pregnancy. She could eat, sleep, and work with no fatigue or morning sickness.

Nearby stood Nathan, Mila, and Jasper. At first glance, they seemed like peers, not because Jasper looked mature, but because his parents appeared youthful and well-maintained.
