Chapter 928 I’m Pregnant

Charlene was overjoyed. She called Brendan post-haste, her voice taking a coquettish tone, "Can you come home

earlier today, Bren? I've got some really important announcements to make."

There was a brief beat of silence from the other side. 'Til be home as soon as the meeting’s over." "Terrific!"

She straightened her back and began ordering Mrs. Engel to buy a list of cooking ingredients before personally

preparing dinner. Relieved from kitchen duty, Mrs. Engel mused in the living room. "What's with that Charlene?

She's as happy as a chimp with a banana. Is it her birthday today?"

Deirdre shook her head. "It’s not this month." "What else could possibly make her this happy, then?" "Good news

upon her, I bet."

Before Mrs. Engel could understand what it meant, Brendan strode in from outside before hanging his suit on the

rack.

Charlene practically sprung out of the kitchen excitedly to greet him." You're home already, Bren?" "You called me

about some important announcement, didn't you? As such, I came home early,” he replied, eyeing the kitchen

before remarking, "Why are you cooking today?"

Charlene feigned timidity. "To celebrate."

Brendan studied her expression. "Celebrate what?”

Charlene dragged her bashful pretense a little longer. She finished preparing the meal in the kitchen and waited for

Brendan to take a seat. Then, she presented the medical report and declared, "I'm pregnant, Bren."

There was a loud clank as Deirdre's fork slipped out of her finger and hit the plate. Mrs. Engel's gasp of disbelief

came soon after. "How’s that possible? You haven’t been doing the deed with Mr. Brighthall these days! How could

you possibly be pregnant?!"

Charlene laughed. "It’s obvious, right? The night Bren drank too much, he slept with me. I didn’t expect myself to

be so luckily fertile. Honestly, it was just one night, but I guess Bren is destined to be the father of this child."

Charlene looked at her stomach with a soft, loving gaze.

Brendan followed her eyes and studied it. "Pregnant after one night sounds so rare that I guess I'm destined, after

all."

Deirdre set her utensils down. "I'm done eating."

With a glare, she rose and started toward the stairs.

Charlene cried after her, "Hey, c’mon, don’t be like that! It was an accident on our part, Miss McKinnon! If you hate

what happened, I’m happy never to speak of it!" "And why should we do that?" Brendan interjected with a frown.

'You’re the one who wants to leave as soon as the child's born, remember? Charlene, though, is my fiancee. What’s

her pregnancy got to piss your off?" "I'm not pissed. I'm just disgusted."

She climbed the stairs and disappeared.

A glare overcame Brendan's visage while a smile shadowed Charlene's lips. All of the trials and tribulation she had

weathered was suddenly rewarded. Finally!

"Bren, Miss McKinnon probably still wants to be with you. It's why she’s upset by the news, but that's expected,

right? So don’t be mad at her." "Who is she to override what I want? Is her opinion the only thing that matters?"

Brendan gruntled.

Mrs. Engel had already escaped into the kitchen as Brendan vented a little of his rage. Finally, his attention fell back

to Charlene’s stomach. "Are you sure about this? That you're pregnant?" 'Yes! It can't be a false alarm because our

baby is already half a month old," Charlene explained. "If you don’t believe me, come with me to the hospital

tomorrow. You can verify it personally."

Brendan fell silent for a moment. "I'm one half of the reason you’re pregnant, so of course, I’ll do what's within my

responsibilities. Still, I need to confirm it before we move on, so I'll accompany you to the hospital tomorrow."

Charlene nodded. She had already arranged everything according to her script. She would not be exposed-she was

sure of it.

The next morning, Brendan did as he said he would and went to the hospital with Charlene. The doctor announced

after the examination, "The child is more than half a month old. They are very healthy, too. Congratulations!"
