Miles’s POV
"Miles, I’m waiting for your explanation," Aunt says, her voice sharp with irritation.
I hesitate, feeling the weight of her gaze. "My marriage to Daphne... it's a contract marriage," I blurt out, unsure how to explain further. Aunt’s eyes widen in disbelief. "My grandfather insisted I marry, so I did," I add quickly, hoping it sounds more convincing than I feel.
She blinks, still processing. "I don’t understand," she says, her voice tinged with confusion. "You got married, and we knew nothing about it. And... you’re married to Reynold’s girlfriend?" Her words hang in the air, each one adding more confusion to the storm swirling in her mind.
I open my mouth to explain, but before I can say anything, the doctor suddenly appears in the doorway, interrupting us.
"Good news,"
