Serena was very nervous and afraid. Their society has never been kind to women. If people were to find out that she's pregnant out of wedlock, and even worse, that the baby was not her fiance's then…
She shook her head. Despite her being afraid, she was also happy inside.
She smiled as she rubbed her stomach. If she was indeed pregnant, then the baby inside her was the embodiment of her and Charlton's love. How could she not be happy about it? Even without confirming if it was really there, she already loved and cherished it.
Anyway, should she cancel on attending the ball tomorrow evening? Just to be sure. But then, she missed Charlton so much. She hasn't seen his face for almost a month now. She needs to see him so that she could stare at his face to ensure their baby would look like him.
Gods, what does she tell him? Should she tell him? Never mind. She knew she must wait She hasn't even missed her period yet!
