I really hope Nicole IS NOT pregnant...
I don't feel her head should be allowing her to have a child with the person she's having an affair with especially the way she still acts with John (like a loving partner who's still trying to keep their marriage together despite John's coldness).
She's only ever acted that way because of a couple of reasons, one being that she fears him, and has always been under his thumb. The second being, that she didn't want him to find out about her affair, but she's been acting colder and well, quite frankly creeped out by him lately. The reason being because she knew that he knew at that point, and no longer needed to feign affection. The only reason she showed any sign of affection during this update, was because of Chloe, their kid, it had nothing to do with still having any deep emotional connection with her husband, that's long gone.
I mean, did you see the flashback of the night he tried to have sex with her, her face when he came onto her, and then kissed her. Her mouth wasn't even open until he forced his way past it, lmao. Yeah, that doesn't scream loving partner if you ask me. The only reason she's kept putting up with him, is for Chloe, now though after learning about his affair, knowing that he already knows about hers, and also now having a new child coming into the world, this sets up the reason for her to finally free herself.
My concern going forward now that Nicole is pregnant (* yet to be officially confirmed) is there's going to be less sex scenes with Nicole...I am going to miss the dates and the sneaking around and foreplay, plus the sexy dresses she wears to seduce MC even though she knows it's wrong.
Now they do say you're much hornier when you're pregnant but it would be great for the game if she wasn't pregnant and then later continue the affair and then she becomes pregnant when they are both ready to accept it.
I'm not going to bother with this one besides saying, no... just no. At the end of the update, they ARE ready to accept it, just because you feel like they
shouldn't be, doesn't change that fact. Also yes, pregnancy can make a lot of women more horny, so there will still be lots of sex, if not more, I definitely don't see this as a negative.
As far as the Chloe stuff goes, the pregnancy is going to be the catalyst for Chloe to finally learn about their affair. Doing the whole, they are having sex and someone walks in on them trope, would have been a much more boring way to go about it. Also, with Chloe having a new sibling coming into the world, even though she will likely be very upset and confused in the beginning, it will ultimately make it easier for her to accept what happened in the end.
