Chapter 244 Mother’s Instinct
Meanwhile, at Brookhaven Estates, the doorbell rang insistently.
Summer, assuming it was Fraser’s relentless persecutor, yanked open the door without checking the peephole.
“Can’t you take a hint?”
Yvette blinked from the doorstep and looked around. “Who can’t take a hint?”
Summer exhaled “Wrong person.”

Yvette sauntered in, kicking off her heels before collapsing on the sofa. “So. Where did you two disappear to this afternoon?”
Summer handed her a glass of water from the kitchen. The riverfront.”
A mischievous grin crept across Yvette’s face. Everyone knew that Havenbrook’s riverfront was the lovers lane, notorious for paparazzi shots of enthusiastic encounters.
“Wow, so romantic
Summer rolled her eyes.
Romantic Hardly. We hadn’t even gotten out of the car
“Well?” Yvette prodded. “Did that elegant Mr. Graham promise to make an honest woman out of you?”
Summer remembered their tense conversation
Fraser had clearly wanted the child, but marriage?
The hesitation spoke volumes.
Of course. With his fiancée waiting in the wings, how could he….
Her fingers tightened around her glass. T’ve made up my mind, Yvette. I’m keeping this child alone.”
“Ah!” Yvette was shocked.
Then she was like she understood something, turning into a knowing “Oh.
Typical Summer, stubborn as a rock.
“But Fraser won’t just walk away,” Yvette pointed out. “That’s in his DNA, too.”
Summer’s palm drifted to her stomach, protective. “Let him try. Nobody’s taking this baby away from me.”
The Grahams, with their bottomless resources and ruthless legacy, wouldn’t tolerate an “illegitimate” heir floating around. But voicing that fear would make it real
Yvette, noticing Summer’s pallor, softened. “Hey, if that’s your decision, I’ve got your back. I’m spoiling this kid rotten, daddy or no daddy.
Gratitude swelled in Summer’s chest. She leaned against Yvette’s shoulder. “Marry me. Right now. We’ll fake your gender on the paperwork.”
Yvette choked. “Excuse me?”
‘Or you could get that sex–change operation in Ostary. Boom, instant husband,”
Yvette gaped. “Absolutely not. I haven’t even slept with half the male population of Havenbrook!”
