The Heartbreak Prescription (by Glazed Snow) novel Chapter 1168

Roger's call came through almost immediately.

Ivy ended the call with Edric and answered.

"Hey, Grandpa."

"Ivy, did I catch you at a bad time?" Roger asked.

"No. I just finished showering."

"You're pregnant now," he said warmly. "This child is extremely important to the Lowe and Quinn families. Should I send someone to help take care of you?"

"That won't be necessary, Grandpa. Keith already arranged for Wanda to stay with me."

"Good, good. That shows how seriously the Lowe family values this child." He paused before continuing. "My 70th birthday is in 2 days. Come home for dinner, and bring Nathan."

There it was again. Bring Nathan home.

Ivy wasn't even sure he would agree. "Nathan's been very busy lately."

"Too busy to attend my birthday?"

Ivy hesitated for a moment. "I'll talk to him."

"That's my girl," Roger said, clearly satisfied. "Your appearance together will officially announce your marriage and the pregnancy to everyone in our social circle. It will elevate our family's standing."

With the Quinn family, everything came back to advantage and calculation.

Now that Ivy was carrying Nathan's child, Roger couldn't wait to make it public. The higher the Lowe family stood, the higher the Quinn family would rise alongside them.

Ivy understood perfectly.

"I understand, Grandpa."

"Has Nathan come home yet?"

"He should be back soon."

"Good. Then we'll see you in two days."

The call ended.

Ivy sat on the edge of the bed, staring blankly ahead for a long moment.

She didn't know how to bring this up with Nathan.
