“Mom, don’t worry. I’ll make sure we have two kids within three years so the Gordon Family line won’t end with me.”

Stella Gordon, Eric’s mother, beamed with joy when she heard these words. “Good,
good! That’s all I’ve been hoping for. I’m looking forward to having this house bustling with
life.”
Then she added, “Poor Wanda. She is a good person but it’s a pity she hurt her body. while giving birth to Ben. Fortunately, we still have you. As long as you give birth to this child, you’ll be the Gordon Family’s hero.”
The gift bag in Wanda’s hands suddenly fell scorching. Inside the bags were farewell gifts she had carefully selected.
Stella loved playing cards, but her age often left her feeling fatigued. Wanda had sought out a renowned doctor and personally made health supplements for her.
Wesley Gordon, Ben’s father, after his retirement, loved to go fishing. Wanda had pulled countless strings to acquire a rare, limited–edition fishing rod for him.
However, now, it seemed it was unnecessary to give those thoughtful gifts personally. So, Wanda handed the health supplements and the fishing rod to a housekeeper standing nearby while trying to hold back her tears.
She still remembered the day after their wedding when Stella had clasped her hands, saying, “If Eric ever misbehaves and fools around in the future, feel free to come to me. I’ll sort him out for you.”
Wesley had also solemnly promised to only ever recognize her as his daughter–in–law. Yet today, she had seen and heard them warmly hosting another woman and calling
her “daughter–in–law” with affection.
However, Eric was their biological son. While, at best, she was an adopted daughter and a daughter–in–law with no blood ties. She was, after all, an outsider.
Wanda stumbled back to her room in a daze. Late at night, when no one could hear her, she curled up in her closet to muffle her sobs.
This time, Eric wouldn’t be there to pull her out of the darkness and reassure her that
she still had him.
She didn’t even know when she had fallen asleep but when she woke, she found herself lying on the soft bed.
To her surprise, Eric, whom she hadn’t seen in days, was sitting beside her. He was holding her phone with an unreadable expression.
“Wanda, someone just sent you a message saying, ‘Everything is going according to plan.‘ What are you planning to do?” he asked.
Wanda’s groggy mind instantly cleared. She scrambled to snatch her phone back and
