Chapter 286
Both Liam and Cynthia considered each other’s feelings when it came to the baby.
Cynthia breathed a sigh of relief. She took a pregnancy test stick and asked, “What should I do with
with this thing?
The two looked at each other. Liam took the bag and said, “Since I’ve already bought it, just leave it there. We may need it later anyway!
When Liam and Cynthia entered the living room, Winnie brought the hot food to the table.
Liam casually put the bag on the coffee table and then took Cynthia to the dining room for dinner. Cynthia had been exhausted these days, so she ate a lot. She finished two plates of pasta before putting down her fork
After dinner, Cynthia returned to the bedroom to catch up on sleep, and Liam went to the study as usual.
Downstairs, Winnie exclaimed as she cleaned up the table, “Mrs. Sullivan is eating a lot more now and seems to have gained some weight!”
Suddenly, she caught sight of the pharmacy bag on the coffee table. The name of the medicine inside was revealed. She looked closely and saw pregnancy test kits. She was so shocked that she almost dropped the tableware in her hands to the floor.
She had seen Liam come in with this bag carlier. ‘Could Mrs. Sullivan be pregnant? If so, it would explain her recent lethargy and good appetite. she thought.
Thinking of this possibility, Winnie was more excited about it than having a grandson of her own. She had watched Liam grow up. And now, he had his own child. She was really happy for him. She couldn’t wait to call the Sullivan residence and spread the good news.
At this time, David and Jasmine were ready to sleep. After hearing the news on the phone, Jasmine wanted to rush over. David hurriedly grabbed her. “It’s late now. Don’t disturb them. Let’s go over together tomorrow morning”
You’re right Cynthia is pregnant and needs more rest. Til contact the hospital now and take her for a checkup tomorrow Jasmine was in high spirits at the moment.
Thinking that it was Winnie who informed them of such important news, she couldn’t help but mutter and curse Liam, This brat! How could he not tell us about such a big thing? Just wait and see how I’m going to lecture him tomorrow.”
Then, Jasmine nudged David, “Let’s go to their place early tomorrow and ask that brat to go to the hospital with us. He must accompany Cynthia for every prenatal checkup from now on”
David’s leg hadn’t fully recovered yet. Although he could walk, it was not comparable to before. Besides, he had become lazy due to his leg injury.
Jasmine was a little worried. “Can you get up tomorrow like this?” David patted his chest and promised, “Don’t worry. I’m going to meet my great- grandson”
Cynthia, who was asleep at the time, didn’t know that a big misunderstanding had been formed.
The next day, Cynthia woke up early because she had gone to bed early the night before. She didn’t feel like staying in bed and followed Liam downstairs for breakfast
Suddenly, there was a noise outside, and then Jasmine appeared at the door. She walked straight to Cynthia and grabbed her hand, smiling blissfully. “Cynthia, you’re the lucky star of our family
Cynthia didn’t understand and looked at Liam in confusion. Liam shook his head. “Grandma Jasmine, what happened?” Cynthia asked
“Do
you
still want to hide it from me? Come with me to the hospital later. Jasmine had a knowing expression.
At the mention of the hospital, Cynthia thought something was wrong with Jasmine’s health and hurriedly asked, “Grandma Jasmine, are you feeling unwell”
“I’m in good health. I can take care of your children for two years. Jasmine patted her chest
“Then, what is it?” Cynthia asked.
Jasmine thought Cynthia was deliberately hiding it from her, so she didn’t expose Cynthia. Anyway, once they got the result of the checkup in the hospital later, they couldn’t deny it anymore.
“You will find out when you come with me to the hospital later. Then, she looked at Liam and ordered, “You come with us.”
Liam finished his meal and wiped his mouth with a tissue before saying, “Let Cynthia accompany you. I have something to do in the company?
Jasmine was unhappy when she heard that. She shouted with a grim face, “I never knew you were such a scumbag! Now your true colors are

revealed. Why have I raised a grandson like you?”
Cynthia and Liam were stunned. What’s going on! they wondered.
At this time, David finally came in on crunches. “Help me, Jasmine”
Cynthia hurriedly got up and wanted to help David. Jasmine swiftly held Cynthia down and pointed her chin toward Liam. “Let that brat do it” Then, Liam got up and helped David sit on the chair.
David and Jasmine had come in one after another early in the morning, and Jasmine had even said so many confusing things. Liam reckoned something had to have happened. “Tell us. What do you mean?” He didn’t want to fool around with them.
Now that Liam had come straight to the point, Jasmine didn’t hide it and frankly told them what she knew, “Is Cynthia pregnant? How long do you want to hide it from us?”
“Pili!” A mouthful of soup came out of Cynthia’s mouth. Liam hurriedly handed over a tissue and patted her back gently. He asked, “Grandma, who told you that? Cynthia is not pregnant.”
Jasmine didn’t believe it at all. “You still want to lie to me? I know pregnancy shouldn’t be announced in the first three months, but how can you even hide it from us?”
“It’s true,” Liam said in a deep voice. “Who exactly told you that?” He wondered why it had reached Jasmine’s ears today after they had just had this suspicion yesterday.
Jasmine’s eyes flickered. She naturally couldn’t expose Winnie. Besides, she firmly believed they were lying to her.
Finally, Cynthia spoke seriously “Grandma Jasmine, I’ve checked my pulse. I’m not pregnant.”

Jasmine’s smile froze on her face. After a moment, she asked with a glimmer of hope. “Cynthia, are you telling the truth?”
Jasmine trusted Cynthia more than Liam. When Cynthia nodded in her expectant gaze, her heart, which had been excited all night, sank to the bottom
David was also disappointed, but as the former CEO of Sullivan Group, he had experienced all kinds of ups and downs, so he quickly regained his composure. He comforted Cynthia, “It’s okay. You’re still young. There will be plenty of opportunities in the future.”
Jasmine wasn’t someone petry. After a moment of disappointment, she quickly adjusted herself and echoed David’s words. “That’s right, Cynthia, don’t feel pressured.”
