Eloise took care of Joyce and Michael's payment, then saw them off after getting the list and medication she needed.
Now, she walked with Damien to deliver the news to the others.
They stumbled upon Iris and Quinn, lost in deep conversation.
"Eloise! Are you well?" Iris asked, leaving Quinn's side. "I heard a doctor came to your chamber."
"Despite the size of the estate, it truly is difficult to keep a secret. A doctor did come to see me after I had been feeling unwell all morning. Then a midwife came to confirm whether I am with child now," Eloise shared, watching as excitement filled the pair's eyes.
Iris's eyes widened, and she took another step towards Eloise. "And? What answer did they give? You mustn't leave us wondering."
"It seems likely that it is so. I have to wait to see if I bleed, but if I don't, then we shall be having our first child," Eloise said with excitement.
