As Joan spoke, she hurriedly stood up and got Nancy to sit.
Hearing what Joan said, Caspian was not displeased at all. Instead, he nodded approvingly as though she was right.
Meanwhile, Larry also smiled in relief and wished Caspian the best inwardly.
Joan and Nancy hit it off right away and soon became good friends.
From then on, Nancy often visited Norton Residence with Caspian. As Joan had a companion, she no longer felt bored at home.
“Joan,” Nancy called her sweetly upon reaching Norton Residence that day.
Hearing Nancy's voice, Joan flashed her a smile. “You're here, Nancy. Come on in and have a seat.”
By then, Joan was already eight months into her pregnancy. Despite having a large bump, she still looked stunningly beautiful and exuded motherly vibes.
“Joan, it'll be the engagement day of me and Caspian tomorrow.”
Nancy looked a little excited and thrilled.
“I know. You've said it more than ten times,” Joan replied with a helpless smile as Nancy had repeated it multiple times.
“It's cause I'm nervous,” Nancy explained with an embarrassed smile.
Joan could relate to her as she was also no less nervous than Nancy back then when she got engaged.
She advised, “I understand how you feel, but you have to relax; otherwise, you'll be even more keyed up during the engagement ceremony.”
“Okay!”
Nancy gave her a firm nod.
“Joan, you're already eight months pregnant, right? Does your baby move?”
Looking at Joan's bump, Nancy was full of curiosity.
“Of course, he does. He often kicks me as well.
He is a naughty kid.”
