Chapter 912

Thinking of this.

Yolanda immediately dialed Juniper's number.

After two rings, she answered.

"You did this, didn't you?" Yolanda clutched her phone, on the verge of a breakdown. "You released the truth online so Jerrold would break off our engagement!"

"?"

Juniper had just woken up and was still groggy. She casually scrolled through the

news.

Sure enough.

Yolanda's fake news had been exposed, and the Lonsdale family, attempting to save face, had announced the cancellation of the engagement.

"Although I hadn't even had the chance to lift a finger yet..."

Juniper yawned and replied lazily, "I'm still very happy to hear the sound of your despair."

"You"

Yolanda ground her teeth, screaming at the top of her lungs, "Juniper Payne, if you dare ruin me, Grandpa won't let you off the hook!"

At a time like this.

She still thought she could use their grandfather as a get-out-of-jail-free card?

"Sure." Juniper replied, her tone remaining flat and undisturbed. "Then tell Grandpa

to come right up here and find me. As it happens, I miss the old man."

"Oh, wait."

She paused intentionally before adding, "I suppose Grandpa can't hear your complaints. Why don't you head down there and tell him yourself?"

"Juniper Payne "

Yolanda screamed frantically, completely losing her mind. "Just you wait! I won't let you get away with this!"

"Oh."

Juniper pulled the phone slightly away from her ear, yawning. "Please don't let me get away with it. I'm so scared."

"You"

Yolanda choked on her anger. She was so stifled by Juniper's retorts that she couldn't breathe. Her mouth opened, but no sound came out.

She gasped for air as her face turned a sickly shade of pale.

Then.

Unable to catch her breath, she collapsed backward.

She fainted.

"Yolanda! Yolanda..." Frigga's panicked cries for help echoed through the phone.

Finding it noisy, Juniper simply hung up.

Over the next two months.

Yolanda announced her withdrawal from the filming of Hey, Sis! citing health

reasons.

The online storm gradually died down.

Juniper calmly attended her classes, finishing her first semester.

Winter break officially began.

Juniper finally had the time to travel

to Liberty Island to give Celine no

medical checkup

"How is she?"

Warren Sherwin sat beside Celine,

staring nervously atun

ret

as she

checked Celine's pulse

Celine's complexion seemed slightly off, and the examination was taking longer than usual.

Could there be something wrong with her health?

"Give me your right hand."

Juniper instructed, her brows furrowing slightly as she checked Celine's other wrist.

"What exactly is going on?"

Warren's face grew more strained; he was dying to know the results.

"Quiet."

Juniper snapped, shooting him an icy glare.

"Hiss-"

The surrounding maids gasped, their eyes darting toward Warren.

Other than his wife.

They had never seen anyone dare speak to the island's master like that.

More importantly.

The master actually shut up.

A few minutes later.

Juniper withdrew her hand and downed several gulps of cold water from a nearby glass.

This finally calmed her down.

"Juniper..."

Warren didn't dare ask, so Celine took the initiative. "Is there a problem?"

"It's okay, tell me. I can handle it."

"There's definitely a huge problem."

Juniper's tone softened slightly

when addressing her sister. "Butxet

It's

has nothing to do with you! entirely Warren Sherwin's fault."

Warren: "???"

Celine: "???"

The couple stared at her, their minds full of questions.

"She's pregnant." Juniper said, putting down the glass, the words barely leaving her

lips.
