Chapter 756
Chapter 756 The Stewart's Only Hope
Willow was too embarrassed by the situation to think about how to answer their
questions.
The truth was, she was not pregnant.
But she knew that telling the truth would only disappoint everyone at the table.
Melinda asked, “Don’t feel embarrassed about this, Willow. Pregnancy is a big
deal for every woman. So, how many months pregnant are you?”
Willow tried to shift the attention away. “You should ask Caspian. He knows it
better than I do.”
Willow also wanted to have a baby with Caspian, but he had been busy.
They had also been using protection, which meant that there wasn't a chance for
her to be pregnant.
Caspian was stunned as he wondered what he was supposed to know better.
He noticed that everyone was looking straight at him.
“Caspian, Willow's too embarrassed to talk about it, so you spill the beans.
already!”
“Yeah! When did the two of you finally get it?"
“What are you hesitating about? Tell us!”
Caspian shook his head and replied, “You guys shouldn't be acting so nosy about
our private matters.”
“We're worried about Willow. We'll have to take good care of her, and we need to
know how long she’s been pregnant!”
“You should be more careful in treating your pregnant wife from now on.”
Everyone at the table gave their comments.
Logan and Sherry were also extremely anxious.
Caspian realized that this wasn't something he could fool everyone over.
He had no other choice. “We've also just learned about it. So please calm down,
you all.”
Willow was stunned as she never expected Caspian to reply like that.

Considering that she wasn't actually pregnant, the lie would be exposed if her
belly didn’t grow bigger in the next few months.
Everyone was convinced by Caspian’s reply since they had already seen Willow
acting strangely earlier.
“We just wanted to be sure. We're all glad to know that Willow's finally pregnant!
“That's right! And to learn of such good news on Marilyn's birthday of all times is
such a blessing!”
“Hahaha! The Masseys will welcome a new family member!”
Everyone at the table was overjoyed.
Alicia exclaimed, “How about a toast to congratulate Willow?”
Kate explained, “Willow, you can substitute alcohol with juice for the toast since
you're pregnant.”
Everyone at the table raised their glasses and put all their hard feelings with each
other behind them.
Logan kept looking for opportunities to strike up a conversation with Sherry
throughout the dinner, but the latter kept ignoring him.
He felt helpless even though he still cared about her.
Sherry was both embarrassed and anxious.
Caspian wasn't able to do anything other than suppress his anger so as not to
cause trouble for everyone at the table.
However, Willow had different ideas from Caspian.
She believed it would be best for Sherry and Logan to reconcile since she could
tell Logan still loved the other.
But Willow had no idea what to say or how to mend a relationship that was
broken for 20 years.
The Stewarts also wished for Logan and Sherry to reconcile.
If it happened, the Stewarts and the Massey's relationship would be official, and
everyone would be overjoyed.
The Stewarts began to persuade Logan and Sherry to reconcile with each other.
“Mrs. Massey, your husband had been looking for you for 20 years. Why don't
you return to his side?”
“That's right! Someone like Mr. Massey could have easily looked for another
woman if he never loved you. But he waited for you for 20 years!”
“It's been 20 years already, and Caspian’s safe and sound as well. Why don't you
finally reconcile with your husband?”
Sherry was about to open her mouth when Caspian replied in her stead, “Please
stop it. This is my family’s private matter.”
Marilyn was furious. “How could you say that, Caspian? Think about how much
your mother had suffered alone for 20 years! Do you want her to keep on living
like this?"
Kate chimed in, “That's right! You've also just lost your job. Do you still want to
involve your mother in your unstable life?”
Caspian was speechless as they had made some good arguments.
But then again, Caspian believed that he could provide a life without worries for
Sherry.
Caspian didn't fully blame Logan for their tragic past. He was mostly furious that
the Masseys shunned Sherry.
Caspian calmly replied, “We can wait until I've finished investigating what really
happened 20 years ago.”
Logan smiled and replied, “I don’t mind. I've already waited for 20 years. I'm not
in a hurry for you to change your mind. But for today, let's just enjoy a meal as we
celebrate Mrs. Stewart Senior's birthday.”
Logan knew better than anyone that reconciling with Caspian and Sherry would
take time.
As long as he kept in contact with his family, they would surely return with him to
the Masseys.
Logan left Stewart Residence after the dinner.
Caspian, Willow, and Sherry had also returned to Riverside Villa.
After all the guests had left, the Stewarts started unboxing the gifts from Logan.
to find priceless antiques.
Kate was beaming with joy. “As expected of Mr. Massey!”
Melinda chimed in, “That's right! We will soon rise to fame and power if we play
our cards right with the Masseys!”

Donald exclaimed, “Being connected to the Masseys of Dhord City would change
our lives! Once it’s official, I'm sure many other powerful families would try to
befriend us!”
Marilyn explained, “Everything depends on whether Sherry will nod her head and
agree to return to the family or not.”
Kate replied, “Sherry’s such a stupid woman. So many folks had wanted to break
through into the aristocracy in Dhord City. And now Mr. Massey himself had
come looking to bring her back to the family, yet she’s still hesitating about it!”
Melinda added,
her. I would* That's right! It's been 20 years, and Mr. Massey still remembers
her. I would've accepted his offer in a heartbeat if I were in her shoes!”
Marilyn explained, “We'll have to help convince Sherry to return to the Masseys.”
Carl replied, “But, Mom, I don't think it's a good idea for us to meddle in the
Massey family’s affairs.”
“Don't you understand? Sherry might drag on the matter forever if we don’t make
a move.”
Kate explained, “I think only Willow will be able to convince Sherry to change her
mind now.”
Marilyn asked, “Why do you say that?”
“I've noticed that Sherry treats Willow better than anyone else. I'm sure she
would listen to Willow.”
Kate could tell that Sherry truly favored Willow as her daughter—in—law.
