Chapter 725

“Jennifer will be focusing on her pregnancy and taking care of herself,” Donald said, deliberately looking at Jonathan. “She’ll be taking a break from the hospital for now.”

Jonathan looked at Donald, a flicker of surprise in his eyes. This wasn’t what they’d agreed on when they negotiated

terms.

“Jonathan, I’m really sorry about some things. Let’s eat first. I’ll toast to you,” Donald said, trying to break the ice. But Jonathan didn’t take the drink, his expression still cold.

Hayden spoke up, “Alright, let’s all eat. This is good news. Our family is getting a double blessing.”

“Grandpa, would you mind if we had a triple blessing in the family?” Cheryl asked, her tone extra careful.

“What’s up?” Hayden asked, curiosity piqued. “Did you fall in love or something?”

“It’s even bigger than-” Cheryl began, but before she could finish, Donald nudged her arm, making her swallow her

words.

“You little troublemaker,” Hayden said, catching on that Cheryl was hiding something. “What are you trying to say?”

“It’s nothing. I was just curious. That’s all,” Cheryl replied, trying to play it off.

“Girls your age should be thinking about marriage. If you meet someone nice, don’t wait too long to start dating,” Hayden said in a half–scolding and half–teasing tone.

“Grandpa, I’m just going to the restroom.” Teresa suddenly stood up.

“Donald, I’ll go to the restroom, too,” Jennifer said, rising from her seat as well.

Donald nodded, watching Jennifer as she walked away.

In the restroom, Teresa just couldn’t wrap her head around Jennifer. ‘Didn’t she just have an abortion? And now she’s pregnant again? How is that even possible? It’s only been a few days, Teresa thought in disbelief.

“There will be another baby,” Jennifer said quietly.

Jennifer’s words made everything click for Teresa. “So you lied to Donald again, didn’t you? You never even told him about the abortion, did you?”

“What was I supposed to do?” Jennifer’s eyes shimmered with tears. “If I told him, he’d leave me. The baby is my only bargaining chip. I can’t lose him.”

“But that’s still lying to him! He’s going to find out sooner or later. Didn’t you learn anything from what happened with Mike?” Teresa said, her frustration showing.

“If I can get pregnant with a second baby soon, he’ll never know I had an abortion. This is the only way I can keep our marriage together,” Jennifer said.

She took a deep breath and added, “Instead of lecturing me, maybe you should worry about your own situation. That old

witch Irene is out to snatch Mike from you.
