Whenever Lacey thought of the number of people trying to rob her of the project, it hurt her head.

She looked at the table full of delicious foods but couldn't seem to work up an appetite.

After eating two spoonfuls of rice, Lacey put her cutlery down. “You guys go ahead and eat first. I have some work

to do.”

“Seriously, what's wrong with you? Even Sharon eats more than you,” Hannah scolded. “Don't even think about

dieting. I saw someone on the internet saying dieting is bad if you want to get pregnant.”

Hannah's words only annoyed Lacey even further. “Mom, you can't just force me to have a child! I'm not thinking of

having one now. My career is more important. Plus, having Sharon is more than enough.”

“Who gave you the right to speak? Do you think I like doing this? I'm doing this for you and Zeke's sake! How long

has he been living with you? Half a year, yet nothing has happened yet! Is this how you take responsibility?”

Daniel quickly frowned and quickly signalled Zeke to calm things down as he had no say in the family. It would only

make things worse if Daniel spoke up.
