Chapter 532
Althea, who had been listening all this time, felt the tightness in her chest finally ease. The weight pressing down on their family was slowly lifting. In the middle of the conversation, she turned to Daven and whispered softly,
“What about our news p>
Daven immediately understood what she meant.
“Are you sure?” he asked quietly.
Althea nodded. “Everyone is here. And they’re our family p>
Daven studied her face for a few seconds before finally nodding. He stepped slightly toward the center of the
room.
“I have a small announcement,” he said.
The conversation stopped at once. All eyes turned to him, his expression clearly bright with relief and happiness.
“There’s something we’d like to share p>
Riana looked slightly tense. “Did something happen again p>
Daven shook his head. “No. This is good news p>
He glanced at Althea, then looked back at the family gathered around them.
“Today has been a difficult day,” he continued. “But in the middle of all that, we received something we never expected p>
Althea reached for Grace’s and Josh’s hands. Both children looked up at her, confusion written clearly in their
eyes.
“Mom?” Josh asked, puzzled. “What is it p>
“I’m pregnant p>
The room fell silent.
ALLT
No one spoke right away, as if everyone needed a moment to make sure, they hadn’t misheard.
“Really?” Riana’s voice came first, her eyes already shimmering with tears.
Nathan broke into a wide smile-something rarely seen on his face. “That’s wonderful news p>
Felicia covered her mouth with her hand. “Oh my God… at a time like this p>
“And you’ve been talking to me all this time and didn’t say a word?” Cale cut in, staring in disbelief. The warm silence lingered for a few seconds-until his voice shattered it. “Unbelievable. I’m actually hurt p>
Lydia smacked his shoulder. “That means this was something important for Althea. She wanted to share it with the whole family-not just you p>

Cale still looked mildly offended. “So when are we having a baby, Lydia p>
“You-!” Lydia shot him an exasperated look. Talking to Cale sometimes required full concentration, yet moments like this reminded her he wasn’t entirely the rigid man he appeared to be.
Shaking her head, she moved closer to Althea, her expression turning serious and gentle. “You really need to take good care of yourself now. Don’t let anything happen.
Grace lifted her head, confused. “Mom is having another baby p>
Althea laughed softly. “Yes p>
Grace’s eyes lit up instantly. “I want a baby sister p>
Josh, meanwhile, kept staring at Althea, disbelief written all over his face. “Is that… really true p>
This time, Althea gave him her full attention. She gently smoothed the side of his hair. Just like when she had told him about Grace years ago, Josh’s expression was the same-confusion mixed with a happiness he couldn’t quite hide.
“Yes,” Althea said with a warm smile. “You’re going to have another sibling. Do you… like that p>
Josh let out a slow breath, but a small smile tugged at his lips. “Looks like our house is going to get even louder p>
Riana was already standing beside the bed, holding Althea’s hand warmly. “This is truly a gift from God p>
Nathan added in a deeper voice, “After everything that’s happened, this family is actually growing p>
Daven looked around at each face in the room. For the first time in a long while, there was no tension between
them.
But beneath the warmth, he knew one thing.
The legal storm might finally be easing… but their lives were far from entering calm waters.
But with this new life growing among them, he now had a far greater reason to make sure no threat would ever come near his family again.
“Yes,” Daven said quietly, his voice steady with emotion. “This truly is a blessing from God for all of us p>
For the first time since the storm had swept through their lives, their family was no longer just trying to survive.
Now, they finally had something to look forward to.
