Caught

'How should I introduce Daphne to my parents?' Fredrinn started formulating a plan in his mind. 

It would be suspicious if he suddenly brought her to his parents. Those two were smart people, especially his mother. Margaret was responsible for running most of the family's businesses. Fredrinn wouldn't be able to fool her without a definite alibi. 

While he was immersed in his thoughts, he suddenly heard a series of knocks on his door. "Who would come to my room at this time of the day? It's still early in the morning…" He furrowed his eyebrows in displeasure. He never had any decent rest since the banquet last month. 

"Wait for a moment." He said as he hastily put on a robe to cover himself with. He then opened the door.

When he saw who was outside, Fredrinn was surprised. "Mom? What are you doing here by yourself?" 

It was his mother, Margaret Cloudsky. She was already pregnant for a few months and her belly had a slight bulge.
