Chapter 537:
A beautifully decorated carriage appeared, and nurses carefully assisted Gracie, seated in a wheelchair, as she
alighted.
Billie took it upon herself to escort Gracie as the nurses guided her wheelchair to the center of the stage. Carrie
had recently learned that, thanks to Billie and Kristopher, Gracie had been seeing a specialist, which had
significantly improved her health.
When Gracie cinto view, Carrie's eyes welled up with tears. She whispered, “Grandma,” her voice breaking
with emotion.
Stretching out her hand, Carrie clasped Gracie’s, which felt frail and skeletal, like a dry twig. With a playful scowl,
Gracie scolded her, “There should be no tears today. Don’t mess up your makeup and look like a panda.”
Gracie’s gaze then shifted to Kristopher.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtKristopher responded by kneeling down and gently taking her other hand. Placing Carrie’s hand in Kristopher’s,
Gracie said softly, “Kristopher, take good care of my granddaughter. Remember, even the best relationships face
challenges. Embrace them, trust each other, and never give up.”
Standing, Kristopher gripped Carrie's hand firmly and replied, “I will heed your advice forever, Gracie.”
After their heartfelt moment, a nurse stepped forward and said gently, “Gracie isn’t fully healed and shouldn't be
outdoors for long. She can’t stay for the whole wedding. | need to take her inside now.”

comes first. The rest will follow.”

Carrie steadied herself, holding back tears, then turned to the crowd and announced excitedly, “I have wonderful
news to share—I’'m pregnant.”
The atmosphere froze for a brief moment. A quiet sound echoed, but it felt like a bomb hitting water, sending
shockwaves through the crowd. Disbelief widened everyone's eyes as they questioned whether they had heard
correctly.
Billie was the first to find his voice. “Carrie, are you serious? This isn’t a joke, right?” His words shattered the
silence, and soon the room filled with murmurs and exclamations.
Carrie, her smile warm, glanced down at her stomach. “Just a few days ago, | had a pregnancy test at the
hospital. It confirmed I'm four weeks along. | have the report at home—I’ll show it to you later.”
Kristopher was swept up in a whirlwind of emotions. Today, he wasn’t just a groom—he was also an expectant
father.
Shawn, usually reserved, stood up and wrapped his arms around Melany, exclaiming, “We're going to be great-
grandparents!”
Melany tightened her grip on Gracie’s hand. “Gracie, did you hear? Carrie's expecting, and you're about to

Gracie, her eyes misty, nodded softly and whispered, “Okay, okay.”
The officiant led the crowd in an eruption of applause, celebrating the dual joy of the newlyweds. Carrie soaked
in the moment, feeling overwhelmed by what could only be described as the pinnacle of happiness. Surrounded
by dear friends, beloved family, and under the watchful eye of her mother from beyond, she felt profoundly
content.
As the festivities continued, Gracie excused herself from the event, and the ceremony moved forward.
