But now, Gavin was actually on that big screen.
Suppressing her shock, Ann immediately took out her phone, opened a browser, and searched for Gavin's name.
Information about him popped up instantly.
Gavin Templeton. Founder of the rising tech company, Pallas Group. Net worth: hundreds of millions.
Hundreds. Of. Millions.
Ann swallowed hard, finding it hard to believe. What was even more incredible was that Gavin's company was only five years old. That meant he had become a successful entrepreneur right after divorcing Amanda.
Ann's disbelief quickly turned into ecstatic joy.
It was like a light at the end of a dark tunnel. Although Keira refused to acknowledge her, she still had her biological father! And he was now a man of considerable status. She was Gavin's only, precious daughter. If Gavin saw her coming to find him, he would surely be overjoyed.
What father would turn away his own daughter?
With this thought, Ann immediately booked a flight to Granchester.
At the Sylvester residence.
Today was the fifteenth of the month, the day Gordon and Caitlin went to have dinner with Beatrice.
This evening, Justice, Alaina, and their family of four were also present. It was a family of four because Skyler had married Magda last October, and Magda was now six months pregnant.
The pregnant Magda had become the Cumming family's most protected treasure. Wherever she went, Alaina was sure to follow.
Beatrice sat at the head of the table, smiling warmly. "In the blink of an eye, I'm about to become a great-grandmother. Gordon, you and Freya are about to become a great-uncle and great-aunt. When are you two going to give me a chubby little grandson?"
Who would have thought that someone about to be a great-grandmother hadn't even had the chance to be a grandmother yet?
Gordon peeled a shrimp for Caitlin. "Catie and I aren't in a hurry."
After getting married, they had always used contraception. Although they had started trying for a baby in the last six months, they knew these things couldn't be rushed. Besides, Gordon didn't have a strong desire for children. If Caitlin wanted them, he was happy. If she didn't, that was fine too.
After peeling the shrimp, Gordon dipped it in a special sweet and sour sauce before placing it in Caitlin's bowl.
Caitlin ate the shrimp in one bite. She ate quickly, and Gordon peeled just as fast.
But as she was eating, Caitlin
suddenly felt her stomach churnet
el?
Feeling the urge to vomit, she quokly covered her mouth and
towards the bathroom.
ran
"Are you okay?" Gordon immediately stood up and followed her to the bathroom.
Beatrice and Alaina were also startled and followed them to the bathroom door.
Alaina knocked on the door. "Catie, are you alright?"
"I'm... I'm fine... urp!"
Before she could finish, Caitlin was leaning over the toilet, vomiting profusely.
Gordon stood outside, frantic. "Honey, open the door!"
Beatrice looked at Gordon and asked anxiously, "What's wrong with Catie? Did she eat something bad? Has she been acting strangely lately?"
Gordon thought carefully. "Catie has been perfectly normal lately in every way, except her tastes have gotten a bit strange."
"Strange tastes? How so?" Magda, who had followed them, asked immediately.
Gordon replied, "Your aunt has been craving bitter melon lately. She can finish a whole plate by herself. She never used to eat bitter melon before."
Caitlin liked her milk tea with extra sugar; she naturally disliked bitter things. She liked eating bitter melon?
Hearing this, everyone was puzzled.
Beatrice and Alaina had initially
suspected that Caitlin might be pregnant. But now, they dismissed the thought Pregnant women often craved spicy or sour foods, but they had never heard of a pregnant
woman craving bitter melon.
Just then, Caitlin opened the door and walked out of the bathroom. Her face was a
little pale from having just thrown up.
Gordon immediately rushed to support her. "Boss, let's go. We're going to the hospital right now."
Even though Caitlin was a doctor herself, Gordon felt that a trip to the hospital would give him peace of mind.
"It's really not a big deal, we don't need to go to the hospital." Caitlin looked up at Gordon and smiled "The signs were there for a little while but I wasn't sure, so didn't tell you of Mom. Im pregnant."
