As soon as Rita asked about the pregnancy, Samuel and Scarlett's expressions turned sour. Scarlett, rubbing her belly, forced a smile and said, "Not yet. He's been busy lately, so we haven't had the chance to tell him."
Ah, as expected, they were fretting over Rick.
Scarlett looked at Rita hopefully, "Darling, do you have any friends abroad? I was thinking about going overseas to take care of the pregnancy. What do you think?"
*Oh, how modern—planning to run away while pregnant?*
Rita shook her head. "You can't leave the country. Direct relatives with *Divine Gifts* at B-level or higher aren't allowed to go abroad right now."
