Sally just wanted to tell Gabe the good news that Cora would be a mother and Gabe would be an uncle as soon as possible.
Unexpectedly, her words made Cora and Gabe freeze at the same time.
But Gabe quickly recovered and asked Sally, "What's the child's father? What do you mean?"
"Cora is pregnant, and Mr. Hansen is going to be a father."
Sally felt she had made it obvious enough, so she didn't understand why Gabe still had an unbelievable and even hideous look.
"Cora is unmarried. How could she be pregnant? And even if she is pregnant, what does it have to do with Mr. Hansen?"
"Well..." Sally pondered for a while, seeming to have known what troubled Gabe.
"Cora and Mr. Hansen have already gotten their marriage certificates. Gabe, don't you know about it? Now that Cora is pregnant, of course, Mr. Hansen is the father."
Gabe suddenly opened his eyes wide, looking surprised and unacceptable.
"No, it's not true. Cora, where are you now?"
Cora had always been her father's good daughter and Gabe's good sister.
Gabe really couldn't accept that Cora would be so confused that she had married the man who caused her father's death and was even pregnant with his child.
Cora's face was frighteningly pale, but she knew she couldn't hide this from Gabe. So she told him her location.
Gabe quickly hung up the video call and rushed over to meet Cora.
It was only when Sally saw Cora's pale face that she realized that she had done something wrong.
"You didn't tell Gabe you and Mr. Hansen got the marriage certificates? Why?"
Sally knew Cora was close to Gabe and would tell him everything.
"Sally, it's a long story. You go back to the emergency room, and I'll talk to you some other time."
"Gabe looked strange just now. Will he hit you?"
"No," Cora answered without hesitation.
Gabe spoiled Cora since she was a child and never beat her. Besides, if someone touched her hair, Gabe would hit the person all around the street.
But the more he cared about her, the more she blamed herself.
Gabe was so kind to her, yet she had done the most unbearable thing for him.
Gabe arrived half an hour later.
When he arrived, his eyes were scarlet, and his hair was wet with sweat.
