Chapter 213
Celeste leaned weakly on Liam and whispered, “I’m okay, Grandma. Just feeling nauseous, my vision’s going dark, and I want to puke… As she spoke, she turned her head and covered her mouth, pretending to throw up.
Sienna was frantic, “Alright, alright, stop talking. Quickly, call the doctor!”
Krista reassured Sienna, “Already on it, don’t worry” and calmly instructed Mason, “Mason, take them to the lounge first. The doctor will check on her when they arrive.”
Mason responded and turned to Liam, “Follow me.”
Sienna couldn’t help but worry, “I’ll go too.”
Krista whispered, “Don’t go for now. She’s vomiting so much so she can’t even speak. The lounge is small and crowded, and you might get even more worked up if the air isn’t good. Everyone won’t be able to catch a break.”
Sienna calmed down, “You’re right,” and then ordered Skyler, “Call Robinson and have the hospital send a car over just in case something happens and we need to take her there”
As soon as Liam left, Shawn rushed over, full of worry and concern, “Grandma, what happened to Celeste? Why did she suddenly start vomiting?”
Sienna was equally concerned, but she offered comforting words nonetheless, ‘Don’t fret, we’ve called for a doctor. We’ll soon understand what’s going
on
Some people in the crowd whispered, “Looking at the way she’s throwing up, it reminds me of when I was pregnant. Could she be pregnant?”
“Yeah, it does look like it. Celeste’s been married for over three years, it’s about time she got pregnant.”
“If she really is pregnant, Sienna must be over the moon,”
“Didn’t you hear what Sienna just said? She told her to pick whatever she wants. She’s never spoiled her other daughters-in-law like this. If Celeste really is pregnant and has a grandson for the Reed family. Sienna might spoil her even more. Maybe she’ll become the next head of the Reed family…” Skyler clenched her fists, looking sad.
Mrs. Garber listened to the gossip and suddenly had an idea. She smiled and stepped forward, “Sienna, it seems everyone should congratulate you today”
Sienna frowned and thought about the possibility of Celeste being pregnant, but it was too sudden and she was not ready to be sure.
So she said cautiously, “Let the doctor see what’s going on first. No need to jump to conclusions.”
“It’s all the same whether we look or not. We’ve all had children and know what pregnant women’s reactions are like. Besides, she’s throwing up so much it’s probably a boy. You can rest assured.”
Sienna frowned and said, “The Reed family doesn’t have a preference for boys over girls. If Celeste is pregnant, we’ll treat the child the same, boy or girl.” Treat them the same? Which of these big families really do treat boys and girls the same?
Mrs. Garber interpreted Sienna’s guarded demeanor as merely an act of discretion in public. So, she merely laughed and agreed, “Indeed, indeed, they’re all members of the Reed family. All of this is good news for the Reed family…”
