Chapter 932

Celine looked at Hailey with a smile, thinking back to when Justin had called Jonah a “love-struck fool”. But Hailey wasn’t any different, either.
Two hopeless romantics in love-wasn’t that what everyone said made for the happiest kind of life together? They needed each other, plain and simple.
With a playful grin, Celine teased, “Hailey, now that you and Mr. Pilsner are back on track, maybe it’s time you tell him about the pregnancy.”
Tell him?
The thought had crossed Hailey’s mind more than once.
“I genuinely think Mr. Pilsner would be great with kids,” Celine continued. “Plus, he’s mature and reliable. I really believe he’d make an amazing father. Telling him would be the right move.”
Hailey knew Celine was right. Jonah had mentioned wanting children before, and she agreed-he’d be a fantastic dad.
Hailey nodded thoughtfully. “Alright, I’ll find the right moment.”
Just then, a nurse called out from behind them, “Dr. Tate!”
“Sorry, Hailey. Duty calls,” Celine said.
Hailey nodded. “It’s okay, Celine. Go ahead, don’t let me keep you.”
With that, Celine turned and walked away.
Hailey stood motionless, her eyes fixed on the ultrasound in her hand as a faint smile tugged at her lips.
Out of nowhere, a voice she knew all too well shattered the stillness. “Hailey? What are you doing here?”
She looked up and froze. It was Ewan the one person she had no desire to see again.
Her expression stiffened. “Ewan. Of all people… There’s no need for small talk. With everything that’s happened between us, it’s better if we just pretend we’ve never crossed paths.”
Hailey had no intention of wasting any more time with him. Without another word, she turned to leave.
But Ewan stepped into her path, blocking her way. The more something felt out of reach, the more it seemed to ignite desire, and he was a perfect example of that.
A smirk played on his lips as his gaze lingered on Hailey’s delicate features. “Hailey, are you really going to be this cold toward me?”
“Ewan, you’ve targeted my loved ones time and time again. Our families are no longer allies-we’re enemies. Don’t come near me again.”
“Damn it, Hailey! This is about Jonah, isn’t it? Are you back with him?”
“What happens between me and Jonah is none of your business!” Hailey shot back, attempting to move past him.
But Ewan reached out and grabbed her slender wrist. “Hailey, you—”
Just then, the ultrasound report slipped from Hailey’s grasp and fell to the floor. Ewan’s eyes flickered to it. “What’s this?”
Hailey bent down to pick it up, but Ewan snatched the report from the
ground before she could react

“Hailey, are you at the hospital for a checkup? Is something wrong with your health-?”
His words trailed off as his eyes landed on the bold letters “Ultrasound Report”.
The truth was unmistakable-Hailey was pregnant.
Ewan felt as though he’d been

Jonah’s child.

He stood there, unable to wrap his mind around how things had reached this
point.
How could Hailey be pregnant with Jonah’s child?
“Ewan, do you even understand the concept of privacy? What happens at the hospital is none of your business. Give me the report!” Hailey demanded, reaching for the
ultrasound in his hand.
But Ewan lifted it higher, keeping it just out of her reach, his eyes still fixed on her
in disbelief. “You’re pregnant?”
Hailey nodded. “Can’t you read? Yes, I am!”
Ewan’s expression grew darker. “Are you seriously carrying Jonah’s child?”
