NovelEnglish"Mom, Wanda's expecting,” Nathan said joyfully.
Gary and Florence looked at Mila's stomach in surprise. Their surprise was quickly replaced by delight. "Expecting? Already?"
Mila nodded shyly. "I've been pregnant for over six months."
Florence was over the moon. She eagerly walked over to Mila, took her by the arm, and leaned down to look at her stomach.
"Oh dear, you've been pregnant for half a year. I've been worried sick about you and Nate for the last six months, and it turns out that the two of you had it all planned out. Why haven't you told me?"
“I'm sorry, Florence, I—" Mila started.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFlorence cut her off. "No, no. There's no need to be sorry. You'll stay here from now on and I'll take care of you. I'm worried about you staying with Nate. Whatever your appetite is, telland I'll make it for you."
"Mom, I can take care of her. You don't have to worry,” Nathan chimed in.
Florence frowned at him. "You're a man, and you've never had a child. How are you going to take care of her? Wanda will be staying here. You can just go on with your work as usual. I promise to keep your wife well-fed and healthy."
"Yes, Nate, listen to your mom," Gary added determinedly.
Nathan sighed softly. "No."
“I may be able to agree with you on other matters, but not on this one," Florence said earnestly. “I can't imagine her living alone in Sudvilla, and I certainly won't allow you to take her to the frontier.”
"Mom..." Nathan looked somber as he immediately regretted telling Gary and Florence the news that Mila was pregnant.
Mila didn't want to stay at the Morrison residence, especially not with Layla around.
Layla once loved Nathan, and a marriage of convenience was planned between the two. However, Nathan stubbornly refused to marry her, so Duke stepped in and married Layla instead.
Layla had never liked Mila, and now that she was pregnant, it was even more inconvenient for her to stay at the Morrison residence. Besides, she wanted to be with Nathan.
"Florence, I want to be with Nate. I'll follow him anywhere," Mila said softly.
Nathan was surprised. A flicker of excitement flashed through his eyes as he stared at Mila. Meanwhile, Florence and Gary changed their minds quickly. They both smiled and agreed.
"All right, we'll support your decision. If you want to be with Nate, then be with him. Letknow if he can't take care of you. I'll take care of you myself," Florence said.
Mila nodded with a smile.

Nathan nodded, feeling somewhat helpless.
After lunch at the Morrison residence, Nathan held Mila’s hand and led her to the maple forest.
"Are we going to visit Daniel?" Mila asked.
Nathan replied with a hum.
"How's he doing now?" Mila asked.
“You'll be seeing him soon. Have a look yourself.”
Mila looked at him and saw that his face had gone dark as if he were angry. She tried to remember if she had said something wrong at lunch while following him to Maple Abode. Whenever Mila came here, the beautiful surroundings enchanted her and lifted her spirits.
After ringing the doorbell, Sienna opened the door. At the sight of Mila, she was so overcwith emotion that she had tears in her eyes.
She rushed out and hugged Mila. "Wanda, it's been so long since we've seen one another. You're finally back.”
"Sienna, it's been a while." Mila gently patted Sienna's back.
