Chapter 1142
“Good, I’m glad. If Nathan ever bullies you, call me right away. From now on, I’ll back you up in everything. I won’t let my great- grandchild suffer even a little!”
“Okay, Grandpa.”
After the call ended, Wanda was beaming with joy. “Mrs. Lowe, I’ll arrange a few more staff members. One team will handle your meals, and another will take care of your prenatal checkups.”
“I prefer things quiet. We don’t need that many people.”
“Don’t worry,” Wanda replied. “I know what I’m doing. I’ll arrange for a doctor right away. Tomorrow, we’ll do a full prenatal exam.”
“Alright.”
Wanda left, and Ivy walked over to the window. She took out her phone and made another call. She was calling her grandfather, Roger.
The call connected quickly, and Roger’s voice came through. “Hey, Ivy. Keith already called me earlier to share the good news. Congratulations on your pregnancy.”
Hearing that Keith had already informed Roger, Ivy felt deeply moved. She knew Keith was backing her up in his own way.
No matter how much she said, it could never compare to a single word from Keith.
“Thank you. Now that I’m pregnant, I hope you’ll keep the promise you made to me before,” Ivy said.
Roger laughed. “Of course. I’m a man of my word.”
“I heard that Kate wants to enter Quinn Corporation and even get listed in the Quinn family genealogy…”
“I already called the company and had all her things thrown out. As long as I’m still around, that kid and her mother can forget about stepping inside our house and getting into our genealogy.”
The heavy weight in Ivy’s heart finally lifted. “Thank you, Grandpa.”
“No problem. Focus on taking care of yourself. This is the eldest legitimate grandchild of the Lowe family, the primary heir. Your good days are coming. I’m going to benefit from it, thanks to you,” Roger said cheerfully.
Ivy didn’t say much. “Alright. Bye, Grandpa.”
After ending the call, Ivy lay back on the bed. In that moment, all the noise and hand over her stomach. Inside her, a small life was growing.

She had endured a very unhappy childhood. In the future, she would give all her love to this child.
“Baby, I love you,” she whispered.
Just then, her phone rang. Madge was calling.
Ivy answered, and Madge’s voice immediately came through. “Are you not coming to the office today?”
Ivy glanced at the time. “I am. I’ll be there in 30.”
“Got it.”
After washing up, Ivy went downstairs. Wanda had already prepared a hearty breakfast. “Mrs. Lowe, come eat breakfast.”
Ivy sat down and took a sip of milk.
Wanda smiled. “Mr. Lowe will be so happy when he finds out you’re pregnant. He’s going to be a dad!”
Ivy paused mid–sip. She had completely forgotten about Nathan.

Everyone was celebrating the arrival of this new life, but how would Nathan react when he learned the news?
She knew better than anyone that all her recent efforts to please high had been for this child.
Nathan was smart. Once he found out she was pregnant, he would surely realize she had been using him all along, treating him as nothing more than a means to conceive.
And she had tested him before, asking whether he liked children. He had clearly said he didn’t want kids.
