AND, when everyone met, she would have known that she was pregnant.

Be real!! The chick thought they would settle out of court and no one would even have to know about the baby because they would have "paid" by that time.

As this evolves, it seems the most probable reason for Jaki's exuberance over "the money that would be coming the family's way". I'm sure the boys' families have had this additional worry hanging over their heads for months (not because they believed any of their sons were the father, but because they knew what was hanging in the balance). I have been confident, due to our experience, that no one ever believed a decent, God-fearing family, would allow their name to be dragged through the mud and would settle out of court to make the humiliation and degradation go away.
