It was Amara, who asked first when she regained her consciousness.

Another bomb had been dropped on her head. It was the undying fact that she wasn’t willing to accept either lady as her daughter-in-law. Moreover, since Grandfather Smith had already agreed to let this lady in this household, it was another headache to come across.

‘Was Jennifer’s return not enough for me? Now, this other actress is pregnant and will reside with me?’ She won’t deny that Lucas was her child. His child will be her grandchild. But her resistance was still out.

Whereas, Lucas had hardly recovered from the downfall decision that his grandfather took. In his eyes, it was almost next to impossible, but he was still able to stand on his toes.

Out of this, grandfather Smith’s eyes stayed intact at the pregnant lady, whose face was filled with beads of sweat too. She was scared, but that didn’t put any hindrance in her confidence. “Please apprise me from them, Mr. Smith.”

“Despite carrying the heir of the house, you will never be anyone else but a lady who will give birth to the child and would ultimately leave him or her under our care. Your sights should not be visible anywhere near.”

.....

“....take yourself as the surrogate mother. You are staying here for the next months until you give birth and after that, you should simply go away to anywhere else. But yes, since you will be giving birth, you will be receiving enough money to live your life in a lavish lifestyle for the next few decades. However, you will never be the wife of my grandchild. It will always be Jennifer Taylor.”

Grandfather Smith was very direct in his words. He had laid out the conditions in the easiest way possible. Even Jennifer’s, as well as Jack’s ears, got up when they heard this. They both passed each other a glance, before averting their eyes again at the terrified Lucas who almost trembled in his legs.

A smirk had pulled down Jennifer’s lips on seeing his conscious, ‘Tsk tsk..too shocked? You should have thought about this before you made a lady pregnant..’ how unfortunate he was, Jennifer thought.

But her heart didn’t warm up either for a bastard like him. He had made her lose her child..he will have to pay a hefty price for sure...

At the same time, Seren was already overwhelmed with the different mixed eyes. She was trying her best to not let the tears fall from the edge of her eyes but her trembling hand had betrayed her countless times.

Not only did she appear to be a weak person, but also, she will be thrown out once she gives birth..was this all a game played in front of her eyes? But in the back of her mind, she can’t accept anything good out of the Smiths either..they are ruthless.

Taking a deep breath to let herself calm down, Seren finally lifted her eyes, which were already moist. But her determination didn’t shake even a bit before she spoke confidently. “I agree with this all the time, Mr. Smith.”

“Perfect. I will ask my lawyer to make the agreement today itself so that we sign it as soon as possible.” saying this, Grandfather Smith’s eyes swept across to see his daughter-in-law, who had the ugliest expressions.

But to her dismay, he didn’t bother about the same. “Amara, take care of her. She has the heir of the family.”

“HUGH!” Amara’s annoyance was very vibrant to everyone. She was not only angry but her heart was ripped apart at the thought that she will have to bear another lady..and that too an actress..

But more than her, it was Olivia, who was left dumbfounded. She carried blank expressions, where everything had now fallen into the pieces. While her gaze danced between Lucas, Grandfather Smith, and Seren, she was a little uncertain about the countless things.

But one thing she was sure was about was the heartbreak that she felt. It was not only humiliating on her face, but another obstacle that was painted on her way..no..everything was already much to bear for now.

Without thinking twice, Olivia immediately walked towards the door of the house. She can’t stay here any longer for sure...

But before leaving entirely, Olivia came across to see Lucas was in a daze. She gazed at him, from top to bottom, before a scoff left her lips. “Don’t be shocked Lucas..you deserve this..because this is your doing..”

“And congratulations...you are going to be a father.....” saying this on his face, Olivia didn’t wait for him to spare her any glance either. She walked down the stairs and went to her car to drive out of the Smith mansion.

Inside the mansion, while everyone was still unable to overcome the different feelings, in the end, it was Jenifer who had pulled Hannah out of the house. While Hannah was still in the daze, she had rotted her head outlook at Jennifer who was in hurry. “Jen, where are we going?”

“We are going to grab something for our tummy for now!” Jennifer wasn’t harsh, but neither neutral.

With her expressions, it was hard for Hannah to guess what could be the reason for Jennifer’s distant behavior. But for now, she had kept mum, until they reached a restaurant to have something for lunch.

Throughout the journey, neither of them talked or discussed whatsoever that happened at the mansion. They were all silent until they ordered the food for their tables and it was time to wait...

Jennifer was drinking her water, before Hannah rolled her sleeves and came close to Jennifer, on the table. “Jennifer..tell me..are you impacted?”

“By what?” Jennifer asked in her usual tone, to which Hannah explained, “About Lucas going to become a father..how are you going to handle this mess now?”

“I won’t care.” came a simple reply from her side.

But Hannah simply knew that things weren’t as easy as they were appeared to be right now either. “That man had actually snatched your and Javier’s child. Are you going to let his child be born into this world.... or are you planning something?”
