“If you have something to say, just say it. You cannot kneel forever," she coaxed as she led the girl to the bedside.

Chantel Lowered her head and shook it.

“Auntie Blair, although you and

Uncle Wesley are not my biological parents, you are better than them, and you have treated me better than they ever did. As I have wronged you and your family, it is only fair that I kneel and ask for forgiveness."

“Well, Wesley and I need some time to discuss this. In your condition, kneeling for extended periods is not advisable. Please, rest. And don't worry. I will speak with Gifford about taking responsibility for this child. So, don't worry too much. The most important thing for you now is to rest well and take good care of yourself." Blair had wanted a grandchild for so long that the news overjoyed her. Why would she blame

Chantel? Besides, the first time she saw this girl, she had mistaken her to be Gifford's girlfriend.

There was a moment of silence in the ward. Finally, Chantel added,

“Well, Uncle Wesley, Aunt Blair, don't be angry with Gifford. If he likes another girl, he can bring her home even if I have his child.

I'Ul be okay with that arrangement. Really!"

Chantel hoped to convey that it didn't matter if Gifford married her or not. She just wanted to have his child.

But Wesley and Blair didn't understand. They looked at each other in confusion, unsure of what she meant.

She took the initiative to make a baby with Gifford, but she wouldn't force him to marry her? Was she considerate or did she have hidden motives?

While Blair and Chantel chatted for a while in the ward, Wesley went out and lit a cigarette. He called his son.

“Come back when you are free in the next few days.”

“Why? Did something happen?" Gifford asked.

"Yes." Mixed emotions coursed through Wesley at the thought that he was going to be a grandfather.

In the next few days, Chantel was cared for and protected by the

Leonard family. Blair had always been nice to her, and now, she treated the young girl even better.

She made all kinds of food and drinks for Chantel to replenish her health. She also asked Wesley to inform Chantel's teacher in private that the girl was unwell and needed special care.

Erica was in the middle of a shooting activity when she learned that

Chantel had told Wesley and Blair everything.

She immediately called Wesley.

"Dad, you have to ask Gifford to be responsible for Chantel! None of the men in our family are irresponsible, right?"

Since she couldn't persuade Gifford, she decided to let her father do it!

“How do you know about this matter?" Wesley felt suspicious.
