Chapter 1347
The moment Baillie heard the car engine, he jumped up “Granny, Paige’s back. We’ll continue our game later”
“Hey, you little scamp!”
Before Hilaria could finish her sentence. Baillie had already bolted out the door
“You’re totally head over heels! Hilaria muttered under her breath, turning her attention to Liam Hey, boy, do you
know how to play chess?”
Liam considered for a moment. Tm not too good at it”
In reality, among his peers, his chess skills were more than decent.
“So, you do know how to play?” Hilaria knew this kid was sharp as a tack and a quick learner.
But what really impressed her was his knack for teaching Ivy, and his ability to play chess. That made her like him
even more.

Liam wasn’t scared. Even though he knew he would lose, he was still up for the challenge.
He agreed and immediately took a seat.
“Good boy!” Hilaria nodded in approval.
Ever since Ivy was born, Hilaria would occasionally think about her growing up and getting married, which made her
a bit sentimental.
No matter how good the family or the man, they could never match up to her own kin.
After meeting Liam this time; a seed of thought began to grow in Hilaria’s mind.
She could raise this young boy, and then have him marry Ivy! After all, this kid was an orphan with no other family.
They could keep him here, groom him and nurture his career, and then have him become Ivy’s husband. Wouldn’t
that be perfect?
And the cherry on top was that the kid was quite a looker!
The more Hilaria thought about it, the more she warmed up to Liam.
Baillie rushed out of the house and saw a servant unloading stuff from the car.
Among the usual luxury brands, there were a few he didn’t recognize.
“Mr. Scott, you’re such a clingy one.” Rosalynn quipped as she saw Baillie come out..
1 like it when he’s clingy!” Paige chimed in, trotting towards Baillie, then seemingly remembering something and
slowing her pace.
With a bemused look, Baillie asked, “What’s up?”
“Come to my room. I’ve got something to show you!” Paige whispered.
Baillie broke into a grin. “What is it?”
“Let’s go!” Paige took Baillie’s hand and led him towards her suite.
Their suite had a floor–to–ceiling window facing a small forest, offering a gorgeous view, with a comfy couch by the
window.

“A Christmas present!” Paige handed Baillie a pink gift box.
“But didn’t you already give me one on Christmas Eve?” Baillie asked, puzzled.
“That one doesn’t count. This is the real deal!” Paige gave the box another push. “Go on, open it!
Baillie, with a smile, accepted the box.
After undoing the carefully tied bow, Baillie opened the box.
Inside was a medical report.
He looked at it perplexedly, and then, after reading the contents, he gaped at Paige.
It was the first time Paige had seen such an expression on Baillie’s face.
“Congratulations, Mr. Scott. You’re going to be a dad!” Paige announced with joy.
Baillie was taken aback
He had never thought he’d become a father.
“Is that true?” He took another look at the report.
