When her phone rang again, she declined the call and blocked the number. Instantly, there was peace.
After a moment, she opened the car door to get out, but perhaps due to the emotional turbulence earlier, her legs gave way, and she stumbled toward the ground.
A hand reached out, steadying her, as a man's gentle voice with a hint of laughter reached her ears.
"Careful there." In a private room at a Baycrest restaurant, a young couple sat together.
Hugo had called several times without a response, growing increasingly frustrated. "My sister blockedagain." The woman beside him, beautiful and with a striking presence, was visibly annoyed. "I thought you said your sister was always good to you? What's this about?" "Charlotte, don't get upset." Hugo quickly tried to calm his girlfriend. "My sister's probably still angry. I'll talk to her over the next few days, and I'm sure she'll caround. Once she does, we can sort everything out." Charlotte Brown was not convinced. "What are you talking about? Your sister blocked you!" Her eyes narrowed as an idea struck her. "You know where she lives, right? Just go to Kingsford and talk to her in person. I'll go with you." Hugo hesitated.
To be honest, he had visited Mila at the Montgomery family's place before, but it hadn't gone well. Since then, he had been wary and a bit scared of his brother-in-law, Lysander, and didn't really want to go back.
Seeing his reluctance, Charlotte pointed her finger at him, scolding him fiercely. Afterward, she rubbed her still flat stomach and began to cry.

If you can't get the money, I'll terminate the pregnancy and won't marry you! I'll make sure your family line ends with you!" "Hey, hey, calm down, don't upset the baby..." Hugo, panicked and sweating, comforted and reassured her until he finally conceded. "Okay, okay, I'll go. My sister has always been good to me, I just need to persuade her. Then we can have a big, joyous wedding!" Only then did Charlotte brighten up, starting to dream about the future.
