As Mason leaned closer to smell her hair, he could detect an aromatic fragrance wafting toward his nose. Meanwhile, Janet felt her heart beating a thousand times faster upon noticing the man’s reaction. Thus, she quickly said, “It’s time for breakfast now! No wonder I’m so hungry!”
I’m hungry too, not for breakfast, but for you. Ugh! I might as well become a monk if I have to hold in my desire any longer! When is my girl ever going to grow up? But if she grows up, she’ll lose her purity and innocence… No, please don’t grow up in that case, Janet. Soon, Mason retracted his arm from her waist and held her hand before taking her to the dining area.
When they got there, they were greeted by the sight of a table full of pastries and beverages. However, when Janet’s eyes fell upon a bowl of liquid in a strange color, she immediately pushed it away from her.
Upon noticing her response, Mason gazed at her in bewilderment. “What’s wrong? Are you sure you don’t want to taste it?”
At the same time, the chef also saw Janet’s furrowed brows and unhappy expression. Thus, he came closer and explained to the lady. “Miss Jackson, this soy milk is a must to try in my hometown.”
Even with that explanation, Janet still remained silent. Upon seeing that, Mason chuckled and provoked her to drink the soy milk. “What’s wrong? Are you scared to try it out?”
“Who told you I’m scared?” Janet picked up the bowl and hesitated for a short while before guzzling the liquid down her throat.
Meanwhile, Mason only stared at Janet with a cunning smile until she suddenly vomited what she had just swallowed into the empty bowl in front of her.
At that moment, Sean happened to come in and witnessed Janet vomiting. When he saw that, his expression changed from a worried look to a happy one as he shifted his gaze from her face to her stomach.
Does this mean there is going to be a new member in the Lowry Family soon? Darn it! Miss Jackson is becoming a mother sooner than I expected! At the thought of that, he reached for his phone and texted Old Madam Lowry, who was in Markovia, about his discovery.
On the other hand, Janet wiped her mouth with a piece of tissue paper while cursing deep down within her. For god’s sake, what the hell did I just drink? Is this even meant for humans? What kind of nasty taste was that?! “You jerk!” Janet glared at Mason angrily. I can’t believe he actually let me drink some soy milk that was left overnight!
Unable to hold in his amusement, Mason chuckled and raised his eyebrows. “How was the taste?”
Really?! I’m surprised he still has the nerve to ask me that question! What is he up to?
Then, Mason gave her a piece of tissue paper and laughed. “I was just suggesting you to take a sip instead of guzzling the whole bowl of soy milk.” How was I supposed to know that she fell for that ego trip so easily? After all, I only just wanted her to taste a little bit of that soy milk.
Hastily, Janet grabbed a glass of water and drank it while complaining to Mason. “Ugh! I was too gullible! If this had happened to me when I was younger, I wouldn’t even have cast an eye on that funny-looking liquid at all.”
With a smiling face, Mason sympathetically patted Janet’s back and comforted her. “Okay. Okay, it was my bad, babe.”
On the other hand, Sean received a call from Old Madam Lowry right away as soon as his message was received. He then excitedly picked it up and heard the old lady’s agitated voice. “Are you saying that Janet is pregnant?”
“Indeed! I just saw her vomiting just now. It looked just like morning sickness that all other pregnant women commonly have!” Sean happily replied.
His answer instantly put a bright smile on Old Madam Lowry’s face. Oh, I must say that my boy Mason really did a great job! However, she quickly stiffened, and chills traveled down her spine when something crossed her mind. Wait a minute! How could Mason be so inconsiderate to make Janet pregnant so soon? She is just eighteen this year! Furthermore, she still has to go to college. Does he expect her to attend her lectures with a big tummy? The thought of that didn’t sit well with Old Madam Lowry, so she decided to make a trip to Sandfort City.
On the other end of the call, Sean didn’t notice the change in the old lady’s emotion since he reckoned she was just too happy. Not long after that, he curled his lips upward and smiled, thinking that he should spread the word to everyone in the Lowry Family.
A few moments later, a new message popped up in a mysterious group chat. ‘Miss Jackson is pregnant! To all members of the Lowry Family, please be sure to take good care of Young Master Mason’s future wife.’
In fact, the group chat consisted of the majority of the members in the Lowry Family, including the servants, the butler, and even the driver, but Mason was not in the loop. Needless to say, it was a platform for them to gossip about all affairs in the family; even the last message sent was on the day Janet moved into the Lowry Residence.
