Looking at her best friend, Celine felt there was no need to hide the truth. Plus, she needed someone to help En her make a decision. With a nod, she replied, "Yes, I'm pregnant." Robin and Hailey were left speechless, their jaws dropping in shock.
Hailey asked, "Celine, does Mr. Alvarez know you're pregnant?" Celine shook her head and said, "Not yet."
