It was true. Sheltered only daughters like Rose White and Sylvia Vaughn naturally matured much later than others.
"I didn't expect it either." Aurora Sterling was mature and level-headed, but even she had never imagined becoming a mother so soon.
"Well, since you're pregnant, has Master Damien said anything about marrying you? You can't just carry his child without being properly married, can you? And have you told Mr. Sterling yet?"
Rose White's two questions immediately stumped Aurora Sterling.
'Marry Damien?'
It was a topic she honestly hadn't even considered until Rose White brought it up. Besides, she had never wanted to use a child to lock herself into a marriage.
As far as Aurora was concerned, whether Damien chose to marry was his business, and whether she chose to marry was hers. The arrival of a child wouldn't change any of that.
Besides, she was currently using her sister's name and identity. If she really married Damien, who would he be marrying—her, or her sister?
