Chapter 430
Chase feigned shyness and said, “Huh? Why me?! I’m still a virgin, man! I can’t believe I have to buy those things; it’s so embarrassing”
He was just trying to lighten the mood with a joke, but Ellinor and Ida looked at him with disgusted expressions and were not amused at all
Chase himself found it less funny, shrugged his shoulders, and said, “Alright, alright! I’ll go! Is that good enough for you? Oh man, I can’t believe that 1, the mighty Mr. Larios of Crescent Society, have to be bossed around by you two every day!”
Ida glanced at Chase, ignoring his rambling, and started the car, heading for a nearby drugstore
As she was driving, Ida kept glancing at Ellinor in the rear view mirror, her eyebrows furrowing in worry. Ever since Ellinor felt nauseous earlier, her complexion had worsened
Ellinor’s condition did seem off, she had been mentally and physically drained from designing the new office building for the Blanchet Corporation. Even though she had been staying at home and not doing much, she hadn’t gotten proper rest. Moreover, she seemed to tire easily lately and always felt an inexplicable fatigue
Chase pointed at a drugstore they were passing by and exclaimed. “Ida, we just passed a drugstore! You could have stopped!”
Ida, growing more and more concerned, said seriously, “I think we should just take Ellinor straight to the hospital for a check–up.”
Chase looked surprised, “Ida, have you forgotten that Ellinor hates hospitals?”
ปี
“We’re just going for a blood test, we won’t be there long Ida was firm on this; she glanced at Ellinor through the rear view mirror and suggested, “Let’s go to the hospital. You look a bit off, it won’t hurt to have a check–up, and if it turns out to be something like an ectopic pregnancy, we can catch it early”
Ellinor gave a wry smile.
Ida was already worried about ectopic pregnancy when she wasn’t even sure if she was pregnant yet?
But her period had not come for two months now, and she wasn’t sure whether her cycle was just messed up or if she had gotten pregnant that night.
In the end, she couldn’t resist Ida and Chase’s insistence and agreed to go to the hospital for a blood test.
In the obstetrics and gynecology clinic.
The doctor looked at the test results, nodded seriously, and said, “Congratulations! You are seven weeks pregnant, and the baby is developing well.”
The doctor’s words left Ellinor in a daze, she subconsciously touched her stomach. Was she really pregnant? And already for seven weeks….
Ida remained calm, while Chase, on the other hand, was on the verge of tears. He couldn’t control his emotions and exclaimed, “Oh my God! I’m gonna be…
The doctor immediately glared at Chase. “Could the father of the child please keep quiet. This is a hospital; don’t disturb other patients!”
Chase quickly explained with a smile, “Doc, you got it wrong, I’m not the father. I was just about to say that I’m gonna be an uncle!”
The doctor frowned, “If you’re not the father, why are you so excited? Where is the father?”
When the topic of the baby’s father came up, Ellinor blushed slightly, “He’s on a business trip and doesn’t know about this yet.”
The doctor sighed and said disapprovingly, “Well, this time is an exception, but from now on, your husband should accompany you for all prenatal checkups! It’s not just a woman’s job to have a baby. Men should take time to accompany their wives to the hospital, regardless of how busy they are!”
Ellinor nodded. “Yes, thank you for your advice, doctor”
