Chapter 714
“Jonathan.” Werner chimed in. “The whole family knows that you’re going to be a dad. This is great news! This is the Lynn family’s first grandson
“heard Donald and Cheryl faked the report to keep you from finding out. Don’t worry, I’ll give them a piece of my mind. I will stand up for you
Jonathan rubbed his temples. “I’m out of town right now. I can’t make it back.”
Hayden snorted, “You’re always so busy, running around every day. I swear, you can’t even tell what’s important anymore. But I don’t care. I want to see my adorable great–grandson right this instant.”
“Grandpa, it’s really not possible today. I’ll bring Mike back when I get the ance, but there’s no way I’m letting him go alone. He’s just a kid. Without me and Teresa there, he’ll be scared. Please don’t frighten him,” Jonathan said.
Hayden went quiet for a couple of seconds, and then suddenly sounded a lot more pleased with Jonathan. He chuckled on the phone. “I knew it. Teresa’s the one who had your kid, right?
“Your mom tried to hide it from me, saying she didn’t know who the mother was. Come on, who else would put up with you enough to have your child except for Teresa?”
Jonathan looked at Teresa, still unconscious in bed. He had to admit to himself, ‘Yeah, who else but her?‘
“Tomorrow, you bring Teresa and Mike back home together. Teresa gave our family its first grandson, and you’re still not remarried to her? What, you want them out there suffering all alone?” Hayden demanded.
“How could I ever let them suffer?” Jonathan pinched the bridge of his nose. He knew exactly what he needed to do, so he didn’t say anything more and hung up the phone.
Then he called Gary, kept it brief, and told him the family already knew about Michael.
“How did they find out so fast? Was it you, bro?” Gary asked, surprised. He thought Jonathan would wait a few days before telling the family.
“Wasn’t me. Anyway, the whole family is in the loop now. It’s a good thing. I get nothing to hide,” Jonathan replied.
Jonathan asked Gary to look after Michael for now and not bring him back to the Lynn residence yet. There were too many people there, and Michael was
still so young.
“Don’t worry, bro. I know what you mean. Mike’s still little. Without you by his side, he’d definitely be scared,” Gary said.
“Yeah,” Jonathan replied. “I’m busy here. I’ll hang up now.”
Gary agreed, “Alright.”
Jonathan sat by the bed, still gazing at Teresa.
He already had a son, and honestly, that was enough for him. At least, he wouldn’t be left without a child.
But now, realizing she was pregnant with his child again, he flashed a small smile. ‘Who would’ve thought I’d end up with two kids by the time I hit thirty- one?‘ he mused to himself.
Teresa’s eyelashes fluttered as she slowly opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was Jonathan’s gentle smile. For a split second, she thou must be dreaming.
She realized Jonathan was holding her hand, his touch making her palm feel hot, and she quickly pulled her hand back from his grasp.
“You’re awake. How are you feeling? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?” Jonathan asked, reaching out to touch her face, but Teresa turned away, avoiding his hand.

Jonathan withdrew his hand, forcing himself to be patient. “I bought you some food. Try to have some for now,
Teresa snapped back to reality, her voice flat. “I don’t need you fussing over me.” She remembered every word Irene had said before she passed o right now, she wanted nothing to do with him.
“I’m not hungry,” she said, turning over and giving him her back, her posture cold and distant.
Jonathan raised an eyebrow. “How can you not be hungry after not eating all day? The baby in your belly must be starving by now?
Teresa’s whole body went rigid. ‘He knows,‘ she thought.
