“Grandpa, don’t get the wrong idea, okay?” said Evangeline, almost begging, as she set the bowl down. Evangeline faced Cole with all seriousness. “Walter and I have been dreaming of this baby since we tied the knot. We’ve been planning for so long, and now that we’re finally expecting, we’re over the moon. I wanted to tell you the good news first, and I just… I just forgot about Mr. Gordon!” 

Evangeline dropped her gaze, doing her best to look like she was genuinely apologetic. She kept her fingers crossed behind her back, hoping for a break, when Cole’s warm voice finally floated over. “Well, in that case, you better go tell him yourself. 

“We’re the Fosters, a big deal around here. We can’t have people thinking our princess doesn’t know her 

manners, can we?” 

Evangeline met Cole’s eyes, knowing she could not dodge the bullet. She had to face the Gordons. 

“Okay, okay, I’m on it! I’ve got to deliver such awesome news to Mr. Gordon myself.” She grabbed the bowl and spoon again, gently blowing on a spoonful of pear and vanilla bean soup to cool it down before offering it to Cole. “Let me feed you this, and then I’ll go over to the Gordons‘ place to fix things up, deal?” 

Cole smiled when she agreed, and he could not resist a playful jab, “Fix things up? What good have you done, huh?” 

Evangeline gave her tummy a proud pat and declared, “Hey, I’m carrying the Gordons‘ next big thing. Isn’t that worth something?” 

While peace reigned in the old Foster home, the Gordon mansion was another story. From the second Thomas walked in, it was like a cold front had rolled through. 

“Aria, scared stiff of saying the wrong thing to Trey, stayed put in her room, not coming out no matter who called. 

Trey was shaking with fury as he scanned the documents Thomas had brought. “Thomas, tell me this isn’t 

true.” 

Thomas, the grandson of Trey’s lifelong buddy and known for his level–headedness, had Trey’s full trust. However, the bombshell he had just dropped was about Trey’s own grandson, the one who seemed to make a career out of trouble. 

Thomas had done his homework on the Gordons before showing up, so he got why Trey was seeing red.” Mr. Gordon, maybe my team goofed and handed me the wrong file. Hang tight, l–double–check and get back to you, okay?”
