Chapter Twenty-Eight

Elsie's POV ✨

As Pamela came to pick up Little Gabrielle, I invited her into the parlor of my penthouse. I couldn't help but be surprised by her big baby bump already. Her laughter filled the room as she saw my wide-eyed reaction.

"You're two weeks already?" I asked in astonishment.

Pamela nodded with a mischievous smile. "Yes, I found out before our honeymoon trip. I wanted it to be a surprise for Michael."

I couldn't help but chuckle at her excitement. "Well, you certainly succeeded in surprising him."

Pamela laughed, her hands gently caressing her bump as she sat down. She looked a bit stressed, and I wondered if the pregnancy was taking a toll on her.

I called out to Little Gabrielle, letting her know that her mother was here. Then, I asked Pamela what she would like to drink.

"A glass of chilled apple juice, please," she replied with gratitude.
