Michelle asked Rosa, "What is this?"
Rosa held out a pregnancy test. "This is a pregnancy test."
Michelle froze. "A pregnancy test?"
Rosa said, "You've been so drowsy these days, and your appetite hasn't been good. Based on my experience, I think you're probably pregnant! You can use this to do a preliminary check."
Rosa had come with a mission. These days, Michelle and Nathan had been sleeping together regularly. Not only that, but Rosa had also added fertility-boosting herbs and supplements to their meals.
Both of them were young and healthy, with clean lifestyles. It was only natural that she might get pregnant.
Michelle had been waiting for these results herself. She just hadn't expected Rosa to be smart enough to bring it up first.
She reached out and took the pregnancy test. "Okay, Rosa. I'll go test it."
Michelle got out of bed and went into the bathroom to test.
The wait was only one minute, but it felt unbearably long to her. With hands clasped, she kept praying that she would hit the mark. She needed this baby so badly.
Soon, the time was up. Michelle picked up the pregnancy test, and it showed two red lines. She was actually pregnant!
Overwhelming joy swept over her as her mind went blank. Leaning against the sink, she slowly relaxed. All the pressure she'd been carrying about getting pregnant finally lifted. She had really done it.
Just then, there came a knock at the door. Rosa called from outside, "Michelle, are the results in?"
As Michelle opened the bathroom door, Rosa looked at her and asked, "How is it?"
Michelle handed the pregnancy test to Rosa, who almost jumped with joy. "You're pregnant! Congratulations, Michelle!"

Only now did everything feel real to Michelle. She placed her hand over her lower abdomen a baby was growing inside. This was her child, the continuation of her bloodline.
"This is wonderful! I have to tell Mr. Lynch Senior right away!"
Rosa took out her phone and dialed Martin's number. The Lynch family had been settled abroad for years, and Martin lived overseas as well.
The call connected quickly. Rosa smiled and said, "Mr. Lynch Senior,
congratulations-your wish has come true. Michelle is pregnant!"
Martin was overjoyed. "What? Is she actually pregnant? That's amazing! Our family will finally flourish!"
"Congratulations, Mr. Lynch Senior!"
"Where's Michelle?"
"She's right next to me."
"Let me speak with her."
Rosa handed the phone to Michelle. "Michelle, Mr. Lynch Senior wants to talk to you."
Michelle took the phone. "Hello, Grandpa."
Martin said, "Michelle, you haven't let me down at all. You're carrying the Lynch family's firstborn heir so our
family as you everything! I've
bought a villa at Thornwood Manor under your name, along with five percent of Lynch Group's shares.
"Once you give birth to my great-grandchild, there'll be an even bigger gift waiting!"
Michelle knew the Lynch family was
wealthy, but she hadn't expected Martin to be this generous. Villas at Thornwood Manor were nearly. impossible to get, even at sky-high prices. Each one costs hundreds of millions.
Five percent of Lynch Group's shares was an extraordinary gift too. That money would last her forever, even if she never worked a day.
In wealthy families, securing the family line really came with substantial benefits.
