Gregory replied with a smile, “Don’t worry, I’ll watch over her diet and daily routine every day. Tomorrow, I’ll hire a professional maternity team and nutritionist to take good care of Lottie until she gives birth.”
“Lottie just needs to focus on her pregnancy. I’ll take care of everything I else.”
Kathy was very pleased to hear this and nodded repeatedly.
This was the son–in–law she was truly satisfied with.
“Alright, alright, let’s eat first. The food is getting cold.”
“Okay.”
Everyone moved to the dining room.
The dining table was already filled with a carefully prepared lunch.
A dazzling array, the table was packed with dishes.
During the meal, Gregory thoughtfully picked out food for Charlotte, even carefully removing fish bones. Every gesture showed his concern.
After the meal.
“Greg, come to the study and play a game of chess with me.”
“Alright.”
In the study.

The chessboard was set up, and the two began to play, the pieces making crisp sounds as they landed.
While playing, Gordon said, “Greg, marriage is not a game. I hope you’ll keep your word. I only have this one precious daughter, and I can’t let her suffer even a little.”
Gregory’s hand paused as he held a chess piece, and he said earnestly, “Mr. Lindsey, my feelings for Lottie are genuine. My parents divorced when I was young, and I’ve seen too many unhappy marriages. But after meeting Lottie, I finally understood what it means to want to spend a lifetime with someone.”
Gordon looked up at him, and after a long moment, nodded gently. “Alright, I hope you won’t let me down.”
On the chessboard.
Black and white pieces intermingled, as if heralding the beginning of a new chapter in life.

Three thirty in the afternoon.
Gregory checked the time; it was about time to head home.
“I should get going. The day after tomorrow, I hope you both can come to the Bradford family home as guests, so we can discuss the wedding details and the guest list together.”
“Alright, sounds good.”
“Then I’ll take my leave.”
“Take care.” Gordon and Kathy saw him to the door.

Just before leaving, Gregory gave Charlotte a meaningful look, signaling for her to come with him.
Charlotte made a face at him, quickly hid behind her mother, and waved goodbye.
She definitely didn’t dare go back with him.
These past two days.
She had nearly been worn out by him.
Every time, he promised to be gentle and tender.
But in reality…
Faced with his ‘natural advantages, even though he was already very gentle, it was still overwhelming.
So greedy and insatiable, never letting up.
Luckily, the baby in her belly was tough enough, otherwise, she really might not have made it.
Gregory, annoyed, gave her another meaningful look.
Charlotte shook her head resolutely, she needed to stay home and get
some proper rest.
Seeing this, Gregory rolled his eyes at her in exasperation and resignation, and could only leave by himself.
Forget it.
He also had to go back to the company to deal with a pile of work, and discuss the wedding with his father. So, he decided to let the little girl

off the hook for now.
After Gregory left.
Kathy instantly switched from doting mother to strict one, angrily tugging Charlotte’s ear. “You little rascal, how could you be so irresponsible?”
“You slipped away from the hospital without a word, not even saying goodbye. Do you know how worried I was? I thought you’d been kidnapped by some bad guy!”
Charlotte cried out in pain, “Ouch, ouch, ouch, Mom, let go, that hurts!”
“I have to teach you a lesson today. You always make me worry!”
“Mom, I won’t dare do it again. Besides, it’s not my fault–Gregory came to the hospital and took me away, I didn’t even have time to tell you!”
