Savannah and Channing had been married for three years. They lived by themselves and returned to the Muir manor twice a mouth to visit Channing’s parents, Henry and Martha.
That morning. Martha came over without warning.
Martha had reasons to come over.
“Yesterday, I heard that Zendaya from the Yates family, who has been having trouble conceiving, went for in vitro fertilization and it was successful. She has been pregnant for three months. How can I sit still and do nothing?”
In fact, Martha looked down on Savannah from the beginning. She thought that a housekeeper’s daughter did not deserve a gifted person like her son, Channing, and she didn’t believe that Savannah could be able to take. care of the Muir family.
Nevertheless. Channing was finally willing to get married. Since Martha wished she could have an adorable grandchild soon, she just turned a blind eye to it.
No one would have thought that Savannah was useless.
After three years, she showed no signs of pregnancy at all.
Martha looked at Savannah angrily and gritted her teeth as she instructed. “You’ll go to the hospital with me today for a test. After that, stop handling your work. Since you married into our family after trying every means, you should stay home and go with the plan for a successful in vitro fertilization.”
“Martha…” Savannah’s face turned pale because she could not go to the hospital for in vitro fertilization at that
moment
She was already pregnant.
Fortunately, Channing said calmly, “Mom, Savannah is still young. She doesn’t need to hurry to do these.”
Martha stared at him. “She’s already 23 years old. You can keep spoiling her!”
Channing did not respond, and there was no expression on his face.
Seeing that, Martha could not help but ask tentatively, “Wait. It’s been three years, and yet you’re not in a hurry to have kids with Savannah. Are you still thinking about Winona?”
Channing finally reacted at that moment. He glanced at Martha and said, “Don’t get Winona involved in this.”
Savannah’s fingertips shook slightly.
Savannah recalled the way Channing called her and Winona’s names.

It was inevitable. After all, Winona was not someone else but the girl who had been with Channing ten years. ago and also the daughter of the family Savannah’s mother was serving.
Since Savannah could remember, Winona was the little princess everyone loved.
Even Savannah’s biological mother loved Winona more than Savannah.
Although Savannah was the same age as Winona, the former seemed to be an inconspicuous little girl. Except for her father, no one liked her. She could only hide in the housekeeper’s room of the Guthrie residence and watched Winona date Channing for many years. Savannah watched how the cold and indifferent Channing treated Winona differently with all care and affection.
Even at that moment, when they were in front of Martha, Channing defended Winona as he always did.
However, that was not the case for Savannah.
Martha did not know that Savannah had not been pregnant not only because of Savannah’s problem but Channing had used protection every time they got intimate
Thus, Savannah sat at the table and turned paler.
Although Martha was straightforward, she could still read the air.
Knowing she had brought up the wrong topic, Martha touched her nose and said helplessly, “Well, I think Savannah’s still young at 23 years old. She doesn’t have to do in vitro fertilization. But you’d better hurry up. I’ve been looking forward to having a grandchild for many years.”
“Okay. Sit down and have breakfast.” Channing obviously avoided the topic and asked the butler to serve breakfast for Martha.
Knowing that Martha liked side dishes, the butler served a plate of refreshing pickles and placed it next to Martha’s hand.
Somehow, Savannah fixed her eyes on the pickles and could not help gulping.
It was hard for Martha not to feel her stare. “Savannah, do you want to have some?”
Savannah blushed with embarrassment. “Well… Martha, can I have some? Just a little.”
“Of course.” Martha pushed the pickles forward generously. Of course, she wished Savannah could eat more and get stronger.
Just as Savannah was about to reach her fork to the pickles, Channing’s cold voice suddenly sounded. “Didn’t you dislike sour food the most before?”
Savannah’s fork suddenly paused midair. She had finally felt slightly relieved, but now she could feel the anxiousness surging again. “1–I just want to try.”
“You can try it. What’s the matter?” asked Martha.

Martha did not give it much thought. She glared at Channing and said, “Do you always stop your wife from having food like this? No wonder she’s so thin. How could she bear a child?”
Channing was rendered speechless.
Channing reluctantly looked away and stopped talking.
However, Savannah was still nervous. She did not touch the pickles until she finished the breakfast.
Maybe it was because she was too nervous, or the doom saying came true. When Savannah arrived downstairs of her office, she actually started to have a headache.
Channing noticed her extremely unwell expression. The man who would always leave immediately after getting out of the car unprecedentedly gave her a box of painkillers that time.
Channing said. “Take one. Don’t affect your work.”
“Okay.” Savannah took the medicine box as her fingertips trembled slightly. She could not help but let the mockery appear in her eyes, laughing at herself when she thought Channing was concerned about her when handing her the medicine.
However, there was nothing she could say,
“Thank you, Mr. Muir.” Savannah held the medicine box and thanked Channing in a professional tone.
Channing hummed indifferently and turned around to leave.
Savannah stood there and waited for Channing’s figure to disappear before throwing the medicine box into her bag. She did not even intend to unwrap the packaging.
After all, she was pregnant and should not take medicine as will, coz the medicine could be harmful to the baby.
Just when she assumed she had waited enough after Channing left and was about to go upstairs, a familiar female voice suddenly came into her ears. “Savannah.”
“Mom?” Savannah turned her head and was stunned.
It turned out to be Savannah’s mother. She was carrying various bags and walking over from a distance.
As an ordinary housekeeper, Delia Turner did not dress as exquisite and gorgeous as Martha. The traces of time on her face were also very obvious, but one could still vaguely notice her beauty from her younger self.
Savannah immediately went forward and took the things in her hand. “Mom, why are you here?”
“I’m here to send you medicine.” Delia looked at Savannah and said lightly. “This is your fertility medication this month. Don’t forget to drink it.”
Savannah was at a loss for words.
In an instant, Savannah regretted taking the things.

She was a little tired. “Mom, can you stop giving me any fertility medication every month? I don’t want to drink it anymore.”
Delia frowned and scolded, “What? You have to listen to me! You can’t skip drinking this medicine even once!” Then, her voice turned soft as she grabbed Savannah’s hand. “Savannah, don’t blame me for being fierce. I just want you to be pregnant faster, give birth to the son of the heir of the Muir family, and secure your position.”
Savannah was speechless.
It had only been a morning.
Everyone was urging her to have a baby. However, she was not the one who did not want children.
She could not stand it and her eyes reddened. Her voice sounded broken. “Mom, I really don’t care about bearing the son of the heir of the Muir family or being Channing’s wife. If I want to have a baby one day, the only reason will be that I want to be a mother! Besides, in the past three years, you’ve been emphasizing the Muir family’s status in front of me every time. Is it because you also think that I was the one who put drug in the glass of water that was given to Channing?”
