As Lillian hung up the phone after her conversation with Karina, a chilling laugh escaped her lips, one that echoed her earlier predictions. “Just as I anticipated,” she mused, her voice laced with a mix of sarcasm and bitterness. “With Morgan’s notoriously stubborn personality, there’s absolutely no way he would relinquish twenty percent of the Sinclair Group’s shares without a fight.”

She leaned back in her chair, her mind racing through the implications. “And let’s not forget, he’s undoubtedly still second-guessing the evidence that Skyreach Group possesses. We need to stay vigilant and keep a close watch on Sinclair Group’s activities. I have a strong feeling that they’re not going to remain idle for long.”

“I understand,” Karina replied, her voice steady but tinged with concern.

With that, the call ended, leaving Lillian alone with her thoughts.

Upon returning to her dorm, Lillian swung open the door, only to be greeted by a chaotic scene. Shopping bags lay strewn across the floor like fallen leaves, and Laney was eagerly rummaging through them, pulling out items one by one with an enthusiasm that was almost infectious. Isabelle and Elsie sat nearby, their expressions blank, as if the energy had drained from the room.

“What on earth is happening here?” Lillian inquired, raising an eyebrow at the disarray.

Laney, her eyes sparkling with excitement, held up a tiny outfit, its fabric soft and delicate. “Isn’t it adorable? Look at these clothes I bought for the baby!”

Lillian smiled, her heart warming at the sight. “They are indeed cute, but don’t you think this is a bit premature? Have you truly made the decision to keep the baby?”

“Absolutely,” Laney replied, her voice firm and resolute. “I have to. This child is my lifeline.” The weight of that statement hung in the air, heavy with unspoken implications. Whether she could secure her future as Mrs. Whitmore hinged entirely on the life growing within her.

Lillian nodded, sensing the gravity of Laney’s words, and chose to remain silent.

Isabelle, ever the cautious one, broke the silence. “Does the father know? Is he going to marry you?”

For a brief moment, Laney’s expression faltered, a flicker of uncertainty crossing her features. “Of course he knows. He’ll marry me—he has to.” The conviction in her voice was palpable, fueled by the belief that the man in question would not abandon her, despite the swirling doubts in her mind.

The following day, a storm erupted across Kingston, shaking its very foundations.

**Whitmore Family Estate**

Early that morning, the atmosphere was tense. Foster burst into the room, his expression frantic. “Grandpa, something terrible has happened!”

Evan, seated with an air of authority, snapped back, “Nonsense! What could possibly happen to Sebastian? Don’t shout such foolishness around here.”

Foster, undeterred, thrust a tablet toward the elderly man, urgency etched across his face. “See for yourself.”

Evan’s brow furrowed as he scrutinized the screen, his expression morphing into one of fury. “Which media outlet dared to publish this garbage? Utter nonsense! There’s no way Sebastian would ever stoop to such a level. Find out who’s behind this! And investigate this girl, Laney—leave no stone unturned.”

Foster observed his grandfather’s reaction, a mixture of concern and disbelief swirling within him. “But how can you be so sure it’s nonsense? The article is detailed, and the woman even posted a pregnancy report. Everything aligns with her claims.”

The tension in the air thickened, the reality of the situation dawning on them both.
