“Ugh…” Joanna couldn’t hold back the urge to retch.

Even though it was a faint sound, Jaydon still heard it on the other end of the phone.

“Joann, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

“Nah, I’m fine!” Joanna swallowed hard, fighting back the nausea in her stomach.

She didn’t want Jaydon to know she was pregnant again, nor did she want him to worry any further!

Jaydon pondered for a moment and asked with a touch of concern, “Are you really okay?

“Joann, no matter what happens, don’t hide it from me!”

“Alright, I got it!”

“Okay, I’ll head back to Greyport tomorrow. Should be there around eight in the evening!” said Jaydon.

“Sure, want me to pick you up?”

Jaydon asked worriedly, “Is that convenient for you?”

“No worries! It’s totally fine.” Joanna feigned composure.

“Alright then! See you tomorrow!”

“Okay, see you!”

Joanna quietly ended the call.

“It breaks my heart!” she added, handing the milk to Joanna.

Davian and Irvin were sent away. Lilia was also away. Miranda, Kelly, and Tracy fell into a hushed silence.

Joanna was already feeling queasy, and even the slightest taste triggered her sickness. The smell of milk made her vomit. uncontrollably.

“Ugh… Joanna retched and hurriedly rushed to the bathroom!

Witnessing this, Miranda was even more shocked. “Joann, what’s going on?”

Joanna retched in the bathroom for a while before finally managing to stop herself from vomiting.

Having experienced it before, Miranda guessed she was pregnant. “Joann… Don’t tell me you’re pregnant again?”

Joanna didn’t respond, but her expression grew even more despondent.
