Mnie found Cedric’s vignce and warinessughable. What did her pregnancy have to do with


    them anyway?


    Evelyn smiled at Mnie meaningfully and then turned to Cedric, Seeing the obvious displeasure on


    the man’s face, she smiled and said, “Mnie, we’re quite fated, no? How about I be your child’s


    godmother in the future?”

    Evelyn’s voice was mocking and sarcastic. Mnie was well aware that she was intentionally trying to


    provoke her. Naturally, she had no interest in getting involved with Evelyn.


    Before Mnie could respond, Ste’s sharp voice cut in, “Evie, what nonsense are you spouting? She


    can only dream of being at your level, but you’re trying to pull her ranking up by force.”


    Ste’s words were sharp and direct. She did not bother mincing her words. “Why talk about being a


    godmother? In the future, you and Eugene should give me some real grandchildren. Who knows what’s


    in her belly-”


    While Mnie could brush off the insults directed at her, hearing Ste talk about her child in such a


    tone made her frown. “Madam Hel, I hope you mind your words.”


    Evelyn nced at her, raising an eyebrow in apparent surprise. Ste sneered. “Mind my words? Are


    you afraid I’ll say something you don’t want to hear? Don’t tell me you resorted to despicable means to


    get pregnant with Eugene’s child with hopes of marrying into our family for a better life?


    “Mnie, I advise you to give up on that idea. Do you think your child is so important? The likes of you


    giving birth to a child is of no interest to us!” Ste retorted, her words dripping with sarcasm


    and disdain.


    Mnie tried to suppress the anger boiling inside her but failed. She looked coldly at Ste. “Madam


    Hel, if you suffer from delusions, then please seek treatment. My child has nothing to do with Eugene


    or your family.”


    Her expression and tone were icy, the coldness in her eyes piercing Ste like a sword. “My child


    doesn’t need your family’s approval. In fact, if my child were to have a grandmother like you, that would


    be the beginning of its misfortune.”


    “You!” Ste never expected Mnie to retaliate with such harsh words. Her face turned pale with


    anger,


    but Mnie had no interest in sparing Ste’s feelings. She turned around and left.


    Just a few steps away, she saw Eugene approaching from the other side. He had his phone in his hand


    and had probably just gotten off a call.


    Her eyes were scathing às she looked at him, her steps pausing slightly as she coolly reminded him, ‘


    Mr. Scott, I think your mother may have a serious case of delusions. Perhaps you should take her for a


    check–up.


    Eugene’s brows furrowed, his dark eyes meeting hers. However, Mnie acted as if she had not


    noticed this and continued on her way.

    She was infuriated. Perhaps due to the changes to her mindset ever since bing pregnant, Mnie


    always instinctively defended her cald. Her expression remained grim on the way back to the hotel.


    Reny coughed lightly and tried tofort her. “Don’t be angry. It’s not good for your body now that


    you’re pregnant.”


    Mnie gazed at the scenery outside. “I’m not angry,”


    At first, Mnie was genuinely angry because of Ste’s words. No mother would willingly tolerate


    someone speaking ill of her child. However, after calming down, she felt more regretful about her own


    lack of strength.


    If she had more power, Ste would not have the audacity to insult her child like that.


    Reny could not tell what Mnie was thinking but continued tofort her. “Those people have always


    been like that, acting superior and thinking highly of themselves. It’s not worth it topete


    with them.”


    Mnie nodded lightly. She knew Reny was trying tofort her, and there was really no need to let


    the Scott family affect their vacation ns. After calming herselfpletely, she thanked Reny.


    Reny just waved her hand and cheerfully said, “It’s nothing. Just let me be your child’s godmother in


    the future. Oh, by the way, have you chosen a name for the baby?”


    Suddenly bringing up the topic of names, Mnie paused. Although the baby was already four months


    old, she had been so busy before that she had not thought about the name yet.


    She shook her head. “Not yet.”


    “Well, how about you think of one now? Even if you haven’t decided on a formal name, you should at


    least give our little one a nickname, right?”
