Downstairs, Doctor Myers anxiously waited in the living room. Seeing John descend, he reported Diana's condition as usual.
"Mr. Matthews, rest assured. Through these past few days of checks and analyses, Ms. Thompson's body hasn't shown any abnormalities. Her physical condition is relatively good, and the fetus in her womb has also been examined. For now, everything seems stable."
At his words, John's expression remained neutral, but the tension in his eyes visibly relaxed.
"Let's change the frequency of these check-ups to once a week for now," John said calmly.
Doctor Myers immediately agreed, feeling a wave of relief. Every time he drew Diana's blood, he felt as though he was being stared at by death. A few more times, and he might be the one leaving before Diana.
After a moment of silence, John suddenly asked, "Will her condition, being pregnant, have any impact?"
Doctor Myers hesitated before replying, "For now, there doesn't seem
"Well, that makes us friends too." With that, Diana reached out and grabbed the hand Neo was holding, pulling Jenny out of the chair. With a tug, Jenny was lifted into Diana's embrace, who was half a head taller than Jenny, especially with her heightening insole. The two of them looked quite compatible. Diana reached out, wrapping her arm around Jenny's slender waist, casting a mischievous smile towards Neo. "Sorry, Neo, but Jenny and I have something to attend to. We'll be heading out now, hope you don't mind." Though phrased as a question, her actions exuded possessiveness. With Jenny in tow, Diana turned towards the exit. Jenny glanced back at Neo. "Um...Neo, I'm leaving with my friend! If there's anything, we can catch up later..." Diana held Jenny tighter against her side. "Stay put, sweetheart. Your time is mine now." Passing by the waitress, Diana casually handed her a card.
Jenny rushed over, excitement written all over her face. "Wow! That was incredible! You totally knocked that jerk out cold! You're amazing!" she exclaimed. "He was just weak," Diana replied nonchalantly. Meanwhile, the girl whom Diana had saved approached, gratitude written all over her face. "Thank you so much! I don't know what I would've done without you..." "It's nothing. But this kind of guy can be troublesome. You should file a police report, and if you need a lawyer, I can help you find one," Diana offered. The girl nodded fervently. "Yes, I will. Thank you..." Diana smiled at her before turning to Jenny, and together they gathered their belongings, preparing to head to the hospital to check on Frank. But just as they took a few steps, they were hailed by someone. Turning around, Diana saw the girl she had saved looking at her nervously. After a moment of hesitation, she stammered, "Um... is she your girl
His voice trembled slightly, carrying a comforting tone, "It's okay..." Diana's eyes widened in surprise. "John?" This call seemed to pull John out of his nightmare. His gaze flickered slightly, and the emotions in his eyes gradually stabilized. Turning his head, he glanced at Jackson in the passenger seat. "Inform Doctor Myers, have him bring someone to my place." Ethan drove back to John's residence at lightning speed. As soon as the car door opened, John picked up Diana and rushed into the villa. In the backyard hall, Doctor Myers and two other expert doctors were already waiting with instruments. Seeing John carrying Diana upstairs, they quickly followed. After gently laying her on the bed, John glanced back at Doctor Myers. "You said she was fine before, didn't you?" Doctor Myers stuttered, "I, I checked earlier, there didn't seem to be any issues, but..." "What's hap
"Still one-sided?" Hearing this, Mrs. Getty turned her head, glaring at Frank on the bed. Such a clueless boy! She comforted Jenny, "Jenny, it's alright. Initially, I pursued my husband too. Look at us now..." Mrs. Getty turned to Mr. Getty beside her. Mr. Getty also looked at her with a gentle gaze. They locked eyes for a moment. Mr. Getty spoke tenderly, "Meeting you was the luckiest moment of my life." "Hon, don't say that. Being with you is the greatest happiness of my life." "Silly, actually, when you were chasing me back then, I was already smitten." "In fact, the moment I first saw you, I thought you must have fallen for me too..." Their emotions intensified as they spoke. Their gazes met, full of tenderness. The air around them suddenly became thick with emotion. Frank tapped the edge of the bed. "Could you two calm down a bit? There are still people here!"
"Yeah, you're always restless," Mr. Getty remarked. Frank: "...damn, I got kicked, kicked!" After applying more medicine and bandaging, the doctor left. Seeing this, Mrs. Getty immediately spoke up. "Jenny, Mr. Getty and I have something to attend to, could you stay here and watch over Frank? He's restless even with a leg injury, so keep an eye on him." "But won't I be disturbing Frank by staying here?" Jenny hesitated. "No, you won't," Mrs. Getty turned to Frank with a smile, "Right, Frank? You'd like Jenny to stay, wouldn't you?" Frank felt his scalp tighten, instinctively nodded, "Um... Jenny, if you don't have anything urgent, could you stay?" "Sure!" Jenny instantly agreed enthusiastically. Frank was puzzled. Strange, she's not going to find that Neo guy now? Seeing her successful intervention, Mrs. Getty's face lit up with anticipation. "Honey, look at Jenny's innoce
Jenny was taken aback, instinctively trying to pull her hand away, but seeing Neo's pained expression. "What should I do? Jenny, today my dad called, saying they are coming over to see my new company. They said I'm their pride..." Neo held onto her hand tightly. "My mom's condition just stabilized this year. If she knew how miserable I am now... I can't even imagine. I'm ashamed. I really can't face them. I'm under so much pressure..." Jenny appeared somewhat hesitant. She was aware of Neo's background. Neo hailed from a small rural village and managed to get into a top university through his own abilities, making him a shining example of a self-made man from humble beginnings. Undoubtedly, his parents had high expectations for him. Now, with his company bankrupt and nothing to his name, the pressure on him must be immense. Jenny sighed. "Neo, you should head back. Entrepreneurship always carries risks, and it
Frank lay disheveled on the floor, and Winry, with revealing clothing, was gripping his pants. It was obvious what was about to happen. "You two..." Jenny's young face paled. "Jenny, I..." Frank's voice was feeble, pushed to the limit, trying to explain. But before he could finish, he was interrupted. "It's you, Jenny, what a coincidence." Winry grinned, her hands pressed against Frank's neck. Her actions seemed flirtatious, but she was quietly applying pressure, preventing him from making a sound. "You've seen it too. Frank and I have rekindled our old flame. Your timing isn't exactly ideal." "Rekindled?" "Yes." Winry tossed her long hair. "Frank's been passionate about me... So, why don't you leave? Do you want to enjoy the R18 performance here?" "I understand..." Jenny's voice was flat. Upon hearing this, Frank's heart sank. He widened his eyes, gripping Winry's
"Wow! This is developing too quickly, and it's way too smooth! The situation between Jenny and our son, it's so similar to us back then..." Mr. Getty put his hand on her shoulder. "Calm down." "I can't calm down!" Mrs. Getty reached out and gestured to Mr. Getty. "Cigarette." Mr. Getty reached into his pocket, pulled out a pack of cigarettes, and handed her one from inside. Mrs. Getty took it. After Mr. Getty lit it for her, she took a slight drag. In her beautiful eyes, the emotions finally subsided a bit. "I'm too excited... Do you think Frank and our daughter-in-law will end up like us, having a grandchild out of nowhere?" "Daughter-in-law?" "Jenny, of cause!" Excitement gleamed in Mrs. Getty's eyes. "I always thought our son was hopeless. He's already so old but still plays games all day and flirts with those improper women. I always wanted him to go on blind dates..." She too
