Sylvia's POV:
Rufus looked a little surprised. He was speechless for a few seconds. "Do you really want that?"
Hell yeah! I had been wanting to do it for so long now!
But I didn't say that aloud. Instead, I seized the opportunity to tease him. "You're getting old, Rufus. As prince and heir to the throne, if you don't have a child soon, the public will complain." Rufus said softly, "I didn't think you'd want it to happen so soon."
I looked at him in confusion. "What made you think that? In fact, we've been moving too slow. Flora's already—"
I abruptly stopped mid-sentence. Only then did I realize that Rufus had no idea that Flora was pregnant.
"What is it?" Rufus looked at me questioningly.
Eyes wide, I covered my mouth and shook my head vigorously. "Oh, it's nothing."
Rufus chuckled and connected the dots quickly. "Were you about to say that Flora's pregnant?"
"What?! How did you know?" I looked at him in disbelief, wondering when I had spilled the beans.
Rufus knocked on my forehead impatiently. "You have terrible memory. Don't you recall? I followed you to the hospital that day and Omar heard about Flora's pregnancy from behind the screen."
"Oh, right. So much has happened lately. It slipped my mind." I pouted unhappily.
But it didn't matter. Recently, Flora didn't seem to be trying to hide it. She had been eating like a pig and sleeping like a koala. Anyone with eyes would've immediately noticed that she was acting strange. That was, anyone except Warren and Harry. They just thought Flora was acting normally.
