Alaric Faulkner being absent from Aethelgard didn’t stop the matter from causing a huge uproar.
Top headlines in all the major news outlets reported on this event, speculating whether Faye Sterling could successfully marry into the Faulkner Family after giving birth.
All magazines and social dia platforms forwarded the reports, with high-society romances being as captivating as those in the entertainnt industry.
In the room, Faye Sterling picked up her phone.
In no ti, the news of her pregnancy had spread throughout the entirety of Aethelgard.
The most striking detail was an explosive headline.
[Unwed with one child, now pregnant with a second; can Faye Sterling beco the biggest winner and marry into high society?]
There were many comnts below, saying all sorts of things, but most people were mocking her.
"Faye Sterling hasn’t been able to marry into the Faulkner Family all these years, I think this second baby won’t change that either."
"The rich are just looking to have fun with her."
"I actually feel sorry for her; she’s had two children and still can’t marry into wealth."
"You may feel pity, but maybe she’s living happily. The joy of the rich is beyond your imagination."
"The person above is right; it’s just a piece of paper. As long as there’s money, it doesn’t matter."
"Faye Sterling’s son could inherit the Faulkner’s estate in the future, so marriage might not matter to her."
Looking at the various comnts below the news, Faye Sterling stroked her belly with a face full of smugness.
These ignorant people.
How dare they mock her inability to marry Alaric Faulkner?
She had stayed by Alaric’s side for seven years and finally married him as she wished.
She never imagined she would have to use a child to achieve her goal, had she known it would be this easy, she would have used this strategy earlier.
Everyone was waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
But now, she’s slated to be the future Mrs. Faulkner, who would dare say anything?
Those other won must be green with envy!
...
After learning of the situation, the blood pressure of Mrs. Faulkner and Old Master Faulkner soared, nearly getting them infuriated to death.
Without consulting them, Mrs. Faulkner went ahead and handled the matter alone.
With this situation now publicized, if Alaric Faulkner doesn’t marry Faye Sterling, he’ll surely be gossiped about, damaging his reputation!
"Susan Langley, what do you an by this? Alaric hasn’t returned, and yet you’ve exposed Faye Sterling’s situation without permission!"
Mrs. Faulkner glared angrily at Mrs. Faulkner.
"Regardless, Alaric and Faye already have one child, and now with a second one on the way, having the wedding out of convenience is quite normal.
Do you want the unborn child to beco an illegitimate child without proper status?"
Mrs. Faulkner choked at this, unable to respond.
Although Caleb Faulkner had been accepted back into the Faulkner Family, because Faye Sterling and Alaric Faulkner had not registered their marriage, people secretly referred to him as an illegitimate child.
Taking a deep breath, Mrs. Faulkner could only leave it with: "We’ll decide on this matter once Alaric returns!"
Mrs. Faulkner remained indifferent, convinced that even Alaric must marry Faye Sterling upon his return.
"Even when Alaric returns, nothing will change; does he intend to abandon his wife and child like his father did?"
ntioning Gordon Faulkner imdiately brought tears to Mrs. Faulkner’s eyes, all because of Old Master Faulkner. If only he hadn’t sent the children away.
How could Gordon have ended up marrying Susan Langley? Marrying the wrong woman brings misfortune for three generations; now having Susan Langley as a daughter-in-law is a disgrace to the Faulkner Family.
If Faye Sterling enters the family, it would an the end for the Faulkners!
