“Sounds wonderful,” Elliana responded with genuine enthusiasm. For original chapters go to findnovel.net

But her words had barely escaped when dizziness abruptly overwhelmed her, sending her body tilting sideways.

Cole, positioned beside her, caught her with lightning reflexes. “Lilah? Lilah, respond to me!”

Elliana remained unconscious; she had completely fainted.

“What’s happened to her?” Ruben exclaimed in surprise. “Someone carry her upstairs immediately and summon our physician!”

Cole, equally alarmed, swept Elliana into his arms and sprinted toward the staircase, gently placing her on his own bed.

The physician arrived within minutes. After a thorough examination, he delivered unexpected news: “Miss Briggs shows no signs of illness. She’s carrying a three-month pregnancy, and exhaustion has strained her delicate condition. Extended bed rest is essential.”

Pregnant? The announcement stunned everyone present into silence. Fortunately, Ruben had previously dismissed the household staff, leaving only himself, Cole, Lance, and Jeff as witnesses.

After the initial shock subsided, pure joy transformed Ruben’s weathered features into a radiant smile. Elliana had conceived Cole’s child during their stay on the island. This unborn baby represented a miraculous bridge between the Evans and Campbell dynasties.

Potentially ending generations of bitter conflict, this child embodied a divine blessing for the Evans legacy.

Lance delivered his teasing observation with obvious delight. “Grandfather, you’ve yearned for a great-grandchild for decades, and now fate finally grants your deepest wish.”

Jeff’s grin stretched impossibly wide. “This makes me an uncle, doesn’t it?”

Witnessing the pure happiness radiating from Ruben, Lance, and Jeff’s faces, Cole finally grasped that they all possessed intimate knowledge of his romantic history with Lilah—while he, the primary participant, had forgotten everything.

He was at a loss. His beloved now carried his child, yet he had no memory of their intimate moments together. The gap in his recollection drained the joy from impending fatherhood, replacing it with an unsettling emptiness. He had believed their relationship had just begun, that marriage was still a distant consideration, yet fatherhood now loomed immediately ahead. Usually commanding and sharp-witted, Cole appeared dazed in this moment.

Ruben suddenly recalled something crucial and turned toward Cole. “Cole, regarding the child Lilah carries…”

“The babies are mine—I understand that much,” Cole interrupted with quiet certainty.

Lance and Jeff exchanged startled glances.

Ruben asked, surprised, “Have your memories returned?”

Cole met Ruben’s expectant gaze, frustration flickering across his features. “My memories remain lost, but Lilah assured me the children growing inside her belong to me. I trust her completely.”
