Flora's POV:
As soon as Warren finished speaking, the entire crowd gasped in astonishment.
I was so enraged that I aggressively grabbed Warren's arm and scolded, "What nonsense are you talking about? Who is your mate?"
Silence reigned. Warren's announcement seemed to have sent everyone into shock.
I cast a fearful glance in Owen's direction. I was scared that he wouldn't be able to accept the news and that the stress would make him faint. After all, I was just a mere Omega. Warren was way out of my league.
Contrary to my expectations, Owen was overjoyed and looked at me with ecstasy.
"You... You are pregnant?"
It was rare for such a calm serious man to display such a rapturous expression.
I was a little embarrassed and at a loss on how to answer him. I reflexively nodded.
To my surprise, Owen laughed loudly and happily exclaimed, "Oh my God! I'm going to be a grandfather!"
Amused by his reaction, Leonard patted his back and commented, "Calm down. You don't want to get a stitch later."
Somehow, I didn't know how to act. They seemed genuinely happy on receiving the news.
They didn't drive me away after they had heard what had happened as I had expected.
Warren caressed my hair affectionately and said in a doting voice, "See? The thing you are worried about is non-existent."
I peered up at him in surprise. Everything I wanted to say was stuck in my throat. This man seemed to have already seen through all my thoughts and insecurities.
"My daughter-in-law! Come here!"
Owen waved his hand and called me to him in high spirits.
I was left stunned for a moment when I heard him. As the realization of what he'd called me sunk in, I felt even more awkward.
"I... I am not..." I muttered, but my voice was drowned out.
Owen hastily approached me with the others, wanting to take me to the hospital for a check-up.
