Georgie Clementine’s mother must have seen the news or the hot topic on Weibo.“Georgie, I’ve seen what happened on the news. Your boyfriend proposed, and you said yes!”Her mother sounded joyful at the news. She was aware that her daughter was dating and what he did for a living.She always hoped that the two of them would end up getting married. She simply didn't expect it to happen so soon.Admittedly, she had never met Henry Armstrong, but she had faith in her daughter’s judgment.The man Georgie fell in love with certainly had to be good enough for her.Georgie never made her family worry about her. Since she was a child, all her decisions were wise and correct.Most importantly, Henry’s family background was better than they could ever hope for.Georgie couldn’t afford to let this opportunity slip by.Georgie immediately chuckled upon hearing her mother's excited tone. “Yeah, I’ll bring him home next time. But Mom, aren’t you upset that I agreed to marry him without disc
“Could it be your gastritis acting up again?” Henry Armstrong asked.Right then, Xyla Quest and the others also entered the bathroom. As soon as she saw the state Georgie Clementine was in, the first thought that came to her mind was that she was pregnant.“Georgie, are you pregnant?” she asked with a joyful expression as she moved closer to her friend.Kneeling on one knee, Xyla reached for Georgie’s wrist to check on her pulse.Georgie was stunned when she heard the question, realizing that it was possible.She hadn’t had her period for at least a month and a half now since her last one. She hardly paid too much attention to it as she frequently missed her period due to work pressure, so it would likely be delayed or early.If Xyla hadn’t asked the question, Georgie would’ve forgotten about that. Henry had a sharp intake of breath. “Really? She is pregnant?” He sounded excited at the prospect, thinking there was a high chance since they had a very active sex life.“Stop talk
“Does it feel like it’s getting worse? Honey, I'm so sorry, it’s all my fault. I was spinning around too much,” Henry Armstrong said apologetically.At this point, he felt a little panicked.Turning to look at Xyla Quest, he said helplessly, “Xyla, please think of something, quick. She’s dry-heaving even harder now. Also, I was spinning her around too much. Would that affect her and our baby’s health?”Xyla could tell how much he cared about Georgie and the baby from his nervous reaction.She shook her head. “She’s fine, don’t worry. It’ll get better shortly.”“Really? Do I need to call the ambulance?” he asked anxiously.Xyla was speechless. So were the rest of their group.Georgie Clementine couldn’t resist rolling her eyes at him. “Ugh, Henry, can you not overreact?”Henry scratched his head. “Oh, I was just worried about you.”Georgie was out of breath, heaving again while she spoke. “I’m fine. Wait for me outside, all of you. I’ll be fine in a bit.”Henry shook his head,
Georgie Clementine couldn’t resist smiling. “Henry, thank you for being so good to me.”Henry Armstrong hugged her tightly in his arms. “I’ve worked so hard to make you mine. If I don't take care of you, then who should? Besides, you’ll soon be the mother of my child, and we’ll be together for the rest of our lives.”“Like what Stanley said, if a woman has bet her entire life on a man, he shouldn’t let her down,” he added.Georgie felt greatly touched by what she heard, but she remained silent and allowed him to continue holding her close.“Honestly, I wasn't planning on having a child so soon. I still need to focus on my career,” she said after a while.Alarmed, he shuddered and quickly pulled her away. “What do you mean? Don’t you want the baby?”The baby was his, too.His heart started to ache when he thought about how an innocent life could be taken away.He wasn’t willing to let that happen.Before Georgie could say more, he let out a long and helpless sigh. “Although I r
Georgie Clementine peered curiously at Henry Armstrong. “What?”“I’m going to make a call to inform my family. Naturally, I have to share the good news,” he said chirpily.Georgie nodded and then walked into the room to avoid disturbing Henry during his phone call with his parents.When she left, he walked over to the basin and called his mother on the phone.“What is it, Henry?” she asked as soon as she answered his call. He couldn’t hold back his joy any longer. “I’m going to be a father! I’m going to marry Georgie someday soon, and you have to agree with my decision whether you like it or not.”He needed to make his stance clear no matter what.Meanwhile, in the Armstrong family’s luxurious house, his mother was sitting on a European-style couch while she calmly listened to what he said.“What? Pregnant?” There was a look of utter shock in her eyes after hearing what her son said.She had agreed to the idea of the two of them dating, but she secretly hoped they wouldn’t en
“How else would they react? Of course, they couldn’t be happier for us. They agreed to us getting married and didn’t say much else,” Henry Armstrong declared.A look of surprise appeared in Georgie Clementine’s eyes. “Really?”They had to go through tremendous mental struggles to convince Henry’s parents to agree to the two of them dating, and suddenly, today, they agreed to the idea of them getting married without any qualms? She found that hard to believe as she knew that the Armstrong family wasn’t particularly fond of her.They only agreed at first because Henry insisted on being with her.It seemed like they might only have agreed to their marriage because of her pregnancy.Henry nodded. “It’s true. Why would I lie to you? My mother also gave me the green light to take charge of everything.“Most importantly, she doesn’t know what your preferences are or your family traditions. Anyway, I told her I’ll sort everything out. All they need to do is sign some cheques when the t
“That’s impressive! Georgie Clementine is so lucky.”“Why is she still working? She can afford to stay at home from now on.”“I’m very jealous. I'm also a woman, but why is she so successful?”Georgie Clementine saw various envious remarks, so she couldn’t be bothered to continue reading. Hence, she directly exited from the topic and checked out the other trending topics.As the CEO of X Entertainment, Georgie needed to check the list of hot topics many times each day. Mainly, she needed to pay attention to gossip within the entertainment industry, particularly about the company’s artistes.Any unexpected circumstances related to them would be picked up in time to prevent further negative impact.After browsing through and realizing nothing unusual, Georgie looked over the news briefly before closing Weibo, resting her eyes.***The next day, Henry brought her home to talk to his parents about their wedding.His parents didn’t say much but remained polite throughout the conver
“Where’s the mall? Let’s look for a mall so we’d stay warm inside. Also, we can buy something for your parents. What do you think?” Henry Armstrong asked.Georgie Clementine pointed at the intersection ahead. “Turn left and head straight after this. You’ll see the mall then.”Henry chuckled. “Yes, ma’am.”Following her directions, they soon arrived at the largest mall in Sunlight City, the Weston Mall.It was a common-looking building standing at only three-storey high, paling in comparison to the malls in Atlantis that had over ten storeys.Henry looked at the state of it, unimpressed. “It is small.”He was unfamiliar with the brands displayed on the billboards outside the mall.There weren’t any international brands he was used to seeing.“Of course, this is not Atlantis,” Georgie replied.“Well, since we’re already here, let’s go in and have a look," he suggested, parking his car in front of the mall’s entrance.His elegant, luxurious car instantly attracted a lot of atten
