Chapter 35

ARIANNA

"Come on, give me that, Arianna. Stop over working yourself," Mother scolded me, firmly grasping the tray from my hand.

I let out a silent groan, accompanied by a timid smile on my face. It has been over three weeks now since we discovered I was pregnant, and to put it mildly, I am being treated like a toddler taking her first wobbly steps.

The shift in the atmosphere is palpable in everyone's behavior. Lucas now dotes on me incessantly. He showers me with gifts and has practically become my personal doctor. If I happen to miss even an hour of a doctor's appointment, Lucas scolds me without fail.

Even Father, who once despised my very presence in the mansion, now genuinely loves me and treats me as his own daughter.
