Shi had been taken aback by Sophia's sudden question and intrusive action. She felt uncomfortable with the unexpected touch but tried to remain calm and composed despite the situation.
"I'm sorry, My Lady," Shi had answered with a slightly trembling voice. "I-I... and Reeve..."
Sophia's eyes had widened in surprise and joy as she heard the news. "Oh my God! Shi! Congratulations!"
As a healer, Sophia knew that by just touching a woman's stomach, she could know if there was a life growing inside her.
Sophia looked at Shi in disbelief and happiness. She had no idea that Shi and Reeve's relationship had progressed this far.
Sophia felt a sense of warmth and happiness as she thought about the new life growing inside Shi. She knew that this would bring great joy not only to Reeve and Shi but to their families as well.
This news was a blessing that would be celebrated throughout the kingdom.
