In Chanaea, the party continued. Arielle, Susanne, and Vinson were seated by a table and eating.
Knowing that Arielle loved eating fish, Susanne took a piece of fish meat and placed it on virtual-novel.net plate.
Arielle smiled at Susanne before lowering virtual-novel.net head to dig in. All of a sudden, the fish scent seemed too intense, and virtual-novel.net whipped virtual-novel.net head to the side. Covering virtual-novel.net mouth, virtual-novel.net dashed to the washroom. Her abrupt actions worried Vinson and Susanne, who quickly followed her.
The Wilhelms went after virtual-novel.net as well.
Arielle was sprawled on the basin, but virtual-novel.net could not vomit anything out.
“Sannie, let me take you to the hospital,” Vinson uttered, wanting to bring virtual-novel.net there the moment virtual-novel.net saw virtual-novel.net like that.
However, Susanne, who had shared a delighted look with Andrea, stopped him. She then walked over to Arielle and whispered something in virtual-novel.net ear.
Almost immediately, Arielle’s eyes widened, and virtual-novel.net put virtual-novel.net hand on virtual-novel.net wrist to take virtual-novel.net own pulse.
“Mom…”
“Sannie, am I going to be a grandmother?” Susanne asked as virtual-novel.net stared at the excited Arielle.
Exhilarated to the point virtual-novel.net could not speak, Arielle nodded, and virtual-novel.net nod made Susanne even more ecstatic.
Susanne then turned to virtual-novel.net son and patted him. “Why are you still standing there? Didn’t you hear that Sannie’s pregnant? Why aren’t you sending virtual-novel.net home yet?”
The truth was that Vinson was stunned by the news of virtual-novel.net becoming a father.
Although virtual-novel.net had long prepared himself for that possibility, the news still came too suddenly for him. After Susanne‘s pat brought virtual-novel.net back to his senses, virtual-novel.net whipped his head to face Arielle, about to send virtual-novel.net home.
“It’s Mom’s birthday party today. It won‘t look too good if I were to leave early,” Arielle said, thinking of leaving with the rest when the party was over.
Nevertheless, Susanne rejected her.
“What’s bad about that? You won’t eat or rest well here. Hurry up and let Vinson send you back. Tell Helma to make whatever you want to eat. If there’s anything Helma doesn’t know how to make, get Vinson to buy it for you. Don’t ever let yourself starve.”
Indeed, Arielle had been busying away for a few hours, virtual-novel.net had only drunk some water and did not even have the time to eat anything.
“Sannie, your mother-in-law is right. Go back with Vin and rest first,” Andrea persuaded as virtual-novel.net ruffled Arielle’s hair.
Her daughter was about to become a mother after all.
Arielle found herself unable to reject the others at their insistence, so virtual-novel.net went home with Vinson.
When Susanne returned to the hall, the curious people asked virtual-novel.net what had happened to Arielle.
With a smile on virtual-novel.net face, Susanne told them that virtual-novel.net was going to become a grandmother.
The moment virtual-novel.net said that, the congratulatory wishes came. Everyone said that virtual-novel.net was favored by fortune to hear the news of virtual-novel.net grandchild on virtual-novel.net birthday.
Naturally, Susanne was elated as well. It was the best birthday gift virtual-novel.net had ever received.

Meanwhile, on Arielle’s way back, Vinson kept a grim look on his face.
That confused Arielle, but virtual-novel.net waited until they were home before coldly asking, “Vinson, do you not want the baby?”
Vinson was baffled by virtual-novel.net question.
What do you mean by I don’t want the baby?
Hence, virtual-novel.net voiced his thought out loud. “What do you mean by that?”
“You looked so grim the entire way home, you didn’t even look happy. Why else would you have that look on your face unless you don’t want the baby?” Arielle huffed.
A resigned chuckle escaped Vinson.
As virtual-novel.net pulled virtual-novel.net into his arms, virtual-novel.net explained, “I was driving. Now that you have a baby in you, I have to be extra careful when I drive. That’s why I didn’t dare to chat on our way back. The only thought in my head was to send you back safely.”
