Summary
"I went into your room to look for you because I needed to tell you the truth!" Penelope shouted, pointing a trembling finger directly at Marina. "I went there to tell you that Marina is cheating on you. She is pregnant, Colin and you are not the father!"
The room fell into a dead, horrified silence.
Marina’s smirk vanished instantly, replaced by a look of profound, fabricated shock. She let out a sharp gasp, covering her mouth as tears immediately flooded her eyes.
"Colin, no!" Marina cried, turning to him and grabbing his hands. "Yes, I'm pregnant—I was going to surprise you tonight, I swear it! But it's yours. How could you say something so horrible, Penelope? Just because you got caught stealing!"
"She is lying!" Penelope screamed, taking a step forward. "Colin, please, you have to believe me, she's using you!"
"Shut up!" Colin roared, stepping in front of Marina to shield her from Penelope. His face was flushed with pure rage. "Just shut up, Penelope! Don't you dare defile her name to cover up what you've done!"

Summary
Truthfully, Colin would have loved to give Agatha a little sister but there was one tiny, minuscule complication.
A very, very small one really.
(It was not, in fact, small.)
He and Penelope weren’t married. They weren’t even a couple. They had never been in that type of relationship.
Or the one where Agatha Bridgerton won't stop asking her unmarried parents for a baby sister.
