Celeste Linden informed Ethan Barnes that she and Danielle would be leaving the country and asked him not to look for them. Morgan Ashworth then appeared, warning Ethan not to interfere with Celeste and Danielle's departure, reminding Ethan of his past choices and how much he owed Celeste.

The next morning.

When Celeste Linden opened her eyes, she saw the morning light outside. The morning light pouring through the drapes filled the room with warmth. She turned her head and saw little Danielle sleeping softly by her side.

Today was exceptionally beautiful.

Everything that happened yesterday seemed to have vanished into thin air, and Celeste didn’t want to mention it again. Compared to a life full of noise and conflict, she longed for a peaceful and free life. To wake up on such a morning, with Danielle by her side, felt too wonderful.

"Danielle, wake up, we have to leave here."

Celeste Linden got out of bed with little Danielle, and the mother and daughter freshened up. When they stepped outside, they happened to see Morgan Ashworth, Willow Crawford, and little Joy as a family.

"Sis, Danielle, did you sleep well last night?"

"Yes, very well."

Seeing Celeste Linden’s clear and bright eyes, Morgan Ashworth and Willow Crawford felt at ease. It seemed Carlotta’s scene and Ethan Barnes hadn’t affected her mind.

"Sis, Danielle, let’s go have breakfast in the restaurant first. The private jet is ready, and I’ll take you to the airport when it’s time," Morgan Ashworth said.

"Alright."

Everyone went to the restaurant and started having breakfast.

Celeste Linden stood with Willow Crawford, and as Celeste picked up a plate, she asked, "Willow, what would you like to eat?"

Willow glanced over, not feeling like eating much. Lately, she hadn’t had much of an appetite.

At this moment, the aroma of steamed dumplings and buns wafted over. Usually, the flavors were very appetizing, but for Willow, it was a bit nauseating. She immediately placed a hand over her chest.

Celeste noticed her discomfort and immediately asked with concern, "Willow, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

At this point, Morgan Ashworth heard and walked over, asking softly, "What’s the matter?"

Willow’s long eyelashes fluttered as she thought of something. She looked up at Morgan Ashworth with watery eyes, hesitant, "I..."

Morgan Ashworth saw her looking strange and quickly reached out to feel her forehead, "Not hot."

This fool!

Willow took his large hand off her forehead.

At this moment, the aroma of the food wafted over again. Willow couldn’t help it and bent over to retch a few times.

Morgan Ashworth’s pupils shrank in fear, "Willow, what’s wrong with you? Where exactly do you feel unwell? Tell me, I’ll call a doctor right away!"

"Miles!" Celeste Linden reached out to stop Morgan Ashworth, covering her mouth with a smile, "Miles, you’re such a fool, a dork. Can’t you see what’s wrong with Willow?"

Celeste had seen it, but this silly brother didn’t notice.

Willow extended her small hand to hold his large hand, slowly placing it on her still-flat belly.

Morgan Ashworth was stunned. A few seconds later, waves appeared in his dark eyes as he looked at Willow in utter shock.

Willow blushed, her face full of shyness, "My period has been delayed for quite a few days this month, and I have no appetite, sleepy, and now I’m retching. If I’m not mistaken, I should be... pregnant."

Pregnant.

These two words exploded in Morgan Ashworth’s eardrums. Even though he had already guessed, he still felt shocked.

Seeing his somewhat silly expression, Willow couldn’t help but curl her lips into a smile. In the sunlight, her voice was gentle and lingering, "Miles, our second child is here."

Their second child arrived as promised, even earlier than expected.

Morgan Ashworth gathered his thoughts, reached out, and lifted Willow vertically, spinning her around several times on the spot, "Willow, I love you."
