Trapped in Love

After settling at the dining table, Lily served Caroline a bowl of freshly cooked mushroom soup.

Upon seeing the yellow and greasy layer on the soup, Caroline felt a wave of nausea wash over her.

Overwhelmed by the intense feeling, she hurriedly made her way to the restroom.

Lily was left speechless, witnessing the scene unfold before her. However, soon, a joyful expression appeared on her face.

When Caroline returned, her complexion pale, Lily smiled and asked, “Ms. Shenton, is your period late?”

Caroline weakly lifted the teacup from the table. “My period is never on time.”

Lily spoke up, “If my guess is correct, Ms. Shenton, you might be pregnant.”

Lily tried to persuade her. “Mr. Jordan cares deeply for you.”

However, Caroline let out a chuckle. “I know. But he’s incredibly busy. I don’t want him to be distracted because of me…”
