"But ..." Cecelia hesitated, she had heard more or less about Joyce.
She was surprised to hear that Joyce was pregnant with the Henderson family's child. She was not blind, and she could see clearly
what going on between Joyce and Luther. If Luther wanted to marry Charlotte instead because Joyce was pregnant, it didn’t really
make sense. According to Luther's character, these were two different things, and he would not mix them up. So, she could never
figure it out.
However, Jacqueline had been so serious about the engagement this time, and the matter must be approved by Luther.
Could it be that there was something she did not know?
She had lost her daughter for more than twenty years and only hoped that her daughter would have a good marriage. It did not

Luther did not love Charlotte. An unhealthy marriage for the sake of the family and for profit brought only lifelong pain. This was
not what she wanted to see.
But there was nothing she could do to stop it, because Charlotte was so preoccupied with the engagement now.
"Mom, no buts. I'm all set to get engaged, so don't worry about it. Cand helpchoose a dress, | like this one more than the
others. What do you think, are you satisfied? Shall we ask them to change it again?" Charlotte pointed to a luxurious and
complicated white dress gown and asked.
"I think the design is a bit complicated, just pick a simple one. After all, it's just an engagement, and you don't have to care about
it too much. It's not too late to choose carefully when it's tfor the official wedding." Cecelia suggested.
"So." Charlotte was a little disappointed, but followed Cecelia's advice and chose a simple and elegant one.
She was reluctant, however. She had tried so hard to get engaged, and she wanted to announce to the world that she was going to
be Mrs. Warner!
"Charlotte, | have to go out. Your grandfather is always running outside lately, and | don't know where he goes all day, so I'm going
to look for him in case he has any accidents."
Cecelia said.
"What exactly is Grandpa doing?" Charlotte asked perfunctorily, her mind not at all on caring for her grandfather.
"It's the sthing that happened last tat Riveria Haze. He insisted that he saw Mia and insisted on going to look for her.

"Okay, | know. Mom, don't worry, when | have the baby, we will spend every day around grandpa, and he will not have the tto
think about it." Charlotte said sweetly.
"Hmm." Cecelia's furrowed brow finally lifted and she looked forward to the birth of the baby.
"I'm leaving then." With that, Cecelia turned around and left the Heath residence.
Charlotte's sweet face instantly turned gloomy.
This sinful seed would definitely not be born.
She had been calculating for a long tand must find a suitable tto abort this sinful seed. Of course, she could not suffer this
for nothing. She would have to find a scapegoat, and she would make the most of it.
