Chapter 132


    "Wee to the team, Director Hudson," Grant said before he told someone toplete my onboarding process.


    I was officially part of the team in less than half an hour. At that moment, I remembered I hadn''t received approval from Conrad yet. But I figured worstes to worst, I''d have a chat with Herschel. He''d see things my way.


    My phone was buzzing in my pocket, but I ignored it while I was chatting with Grant.


    It was a call from Fanny. "Where are you? I''ve got the day off. Fancy a catch-up?"


    A day off was a rare treat for her! Lately, it seemed she always got caught in the whirlwind of the baby boom season.


    "Taking a breather before the next baby wave hits?" I teased.N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    "Exactly. It''s either everyone decides to have babies at once or not at all," Fannyined, not for the first time.


    People had be too clever, timing their pregnancies with almost religious fervor, aiming for the perfect season or even the best hour for childbirth, hoping to give their children the best start. But they didn''t realize that in their quest to give birth to God-favored ones, the real treasure became the so-called ordinary kids.


    "Are you at home? I''lle over," I knew a break was precious for Fanny and didn''t want her to overexert herself.


    Fanny agreed, "Yeah,e on over!"


    "How about we dive into a couple of drinks for lunch?" I suggested with augh.


    "Sounds good. I''ll whip up something to eat. You bring the wine," Fanny agreed readily.


    After the call, I nced at other missed calls from unknown numbers, assuming they were from other potential employers, but I didn''t bother returning them. If they were serious, they''d call again.


    I didn''t just buy wine. I also picked up some fruit and a teapot to brew some tea for us to enjoy.


    Fanny weed me, taking the


    things from my hands. Seeing the teapot, she nted a quick kiss on my cheek. "You''re the best! I''ve wanted one of these but haven''t had the time."


    "I was worried you might not find the time to use it," I teased.


    Fanny paused. "Time is like a woman''s cleavage. If you squeeze it, you''ll always find some."


    Herment made meugh when I nced at her modest chest. "Can you squeeze out any, though?"


    It wasn''t to poke fun at her. Fanny did prefer convenience over size, often opting for nipple covers in the summer.


    "Don''t underestimate these boobs.


    They''ll be precious to a baby someday. Your bigger ones might not be as handy," Fanny retorted, always the expert in her field, not justin birthing babies but in


    nurturing them too. Content belongs

    "Then we''ll have babies at the same time. You can breastfeed them both," I joked without reservations.


    Fanny kicked me yfully. "Only you coulde up with something like that."


    Weughed it off. My phone rang again. It was another unknown number. Thinking it might be a?ob call, Danswered politely, "Hello, this is Felicia Hudson."


    "Ms. Hudson, your wedding dress has arrived. We want to schedule a fitting," the voice on the other end said.


    "What?" I was shocked. "You must have the wrong number."


    "I don''t think so," the caller confirmed my number.


    It was my number, but I hadn''t ordered any wedding dress. Was this some prank?
