Kelvin suddenly hummed in puzzlement while Gilbert was deep in thought.Gilbert frowned and quickly asked, "What's wrong? Is something wrong?""No, no, no." Kelvin shook his head quickly. "Nothing is wrong. It's just that the test results from her blood are all good, so there shouldn't be any signs of preterm miscarriage. Could it be because she knocked her abdomen into something?"Gilbert was none the wiser and asked, "What do you mean?""Oh, nothing. Just be more careful in the future and try not to bump her belly into anything. She is in the early stages of pregnancy, which is critical."Gilbert nodded.Seeing that Gilbert still looked worried, Kelvin said with amusement, "Come on, don't worry about it. Her health data is really good. This proves that there is nothing wrong with the baby. It should be that she accidentally bumped her belly into something, which caused a minor bleeding occurrence. There should be no problem."Gilbert was still not convinced, even though Kelvin
"Slow down. Don't be so reckless."His yell stumped her again. Kisa wondered why he thought she was doing something dangerous when she was just casually getting out of bed. She frowned and could not help but become suspicious. She went to his side, looked at his serious face, and cautiously asked, "Gilbert, do I have some kind of terminal illness?"Gilbert frowned and angrily said, "Can you say something nicer? Why do you always have to curse yourself?""It's not that I want to curse myself. But, your behavior in the past two days was too strange. When Kelvin examined me just now, it also felt strange. It felt like you two had something to hide from me," Kisa said, taking a deep breath. "Just tell me what kind of incurable illness I have. If it's not a very serious illness, why do you suddenly take such good care of me? Is it because I'm dying, so you are suddenly being so nice to me?"The more Kisa said, the angrier Gilbert became. But, he held back his anger, put the meal on the
He was just upset that she was taking revenge on him for Jensen that morning. To avenge Jensen, Kisa had shown him no mercy. She really wanted to kill him. So, he was holding a grudge about this.Before Kisa could say anything else, Gilbert had already stridden outside. So, she choked back her words and grimaced. 'Didn't he say he wouldn't complain? Now what? He is filled with resentment,' she said in her mind."Hmph, I thought you wouldn't come down for dinner," Madalyn snorted in resentment as soon as Gilbert came down the stairs. "Is that woman crippled or what? She needs you to bring the meal up to her? She is so pretentious.""Grandma, she is really not feeling well," Gilbert came over and said earnestly. "She has to take a good rest during this period. I hope you will stop targeting her."Madalyn got even angrier and forced her cutlery down on the table. "What do you mean? You want me to put up with her attitude? She is alive and kicking. What illness could she have? She is j
"My poor great-grandchild is dead, yet you want me to do something for their sake? Are you trying to make me sad on purpose?!"Madalyn said while sadly wiping her tears.Gilbert chuckled, "Who said it's dead?"Madalyn froze and looked at him in shock. "What do you mean? The baby...""The baby is still in her stomach. The miscarriage incident a few days ago was to tackle Sharon. Kisa didn't actually have a miscarriage."Gilbert did not tell Madalyn about Kisa's fake pregnancy to prevent her from hating Kisa even more.'Telling grandma that the baby's still there is enough. That way, grandma will stop putting Kisa in a tight spot. Besides, she'll be happy,' he thought.As expected, a smile instantly appeared on Madalyn's face. She grabbed Gilbert's hand excitedly and said, "Really? Is the baby really still alive?"Gilbert nodded with a smile. "But, you need to keep this a secret and not tell anyone, including Kisa.""Why? Doesn't she know that she's pregnant?" Madalyn asked perp
Kisa's mood, which just got relaxed, was tense once again. Her whole body also turned stiff.The man practically embraced her entire body in his arms. His warm hands covered her belly and gently caressed it.Kisa thought he wanted to do it again, so she could not help but remind him, "Gilbert, I... I'm on my period.""Mhm, I know."Gilbert answered indifferently. It made her sound as if she had imagined things.Kisa's face burned up slightly.She felt even warmer with the burning-hot chest pressed against her back.Kisa moved to the side again. However, the man pulled her back with his strong arms."If you scoot any further, you'll fall to the ground."Then, he moved backward while hugging her, ensuring that she had sufficient space on her side and would not fall off the bed."Go to sleep. Don't worry. I won't touch you," Gilbert said.Suddenly he released her and pulled a few inches away.Kisa was perplexed at his inconsistent attitude.At first, she really wanted to slee
"You don't have to come downstairs in the future. When you're hungry, press the call button above your bed. The call button that was previously installed hasn't been removed yet, right? Just call for a servant if you need anything."'Mrs. Kooper Sr. changed her attitude again today. It's rare to see her not treating me with disdain. She's even speaking to me with a hint of politeness and concern,' Kisa thought.She looked at the two in front of her in horror.'What happened this time? They're being so nice to me, and I'm starting to wonder if I'm pregnant again. But, that's impossible. I always take contraceptive pills after I do it with Gilbert. Besides, after Shaun and Sharon had set me up and I fell to the ground, the baby would've been long gone even if I was actually pregnant,' she thought again.Kisa shook her head quietly and turned to Madalyn. "Don't you hate me? Why are you suddenly being so nice to me? Are you scheming something?"She was purposefully provoking Madalyn t
Madalyn immediately snorted coldly, "Either you drink it, or you don't. Don't make it look like we're forcing you. My grandson's being nice to you wholeheartedly, yet you're making him swear such an oath. What's your motive?"Kisa pursed her lips.'I didn't expect Gilbert to make such an oath. It would be inappropriate for me to continue being stubborn,' she thought."There's no need to make an oath. I'll drink it."She grunted at the man and downed the entire bowl of decoction in one go.Madalyn nodded in satisfaction.Gilbert gently wiped the stain at the corner of her lips."Kelvin prescribed half a month's worth of the medicine of you. After taking the decoction for half a month, you should be fine. If you find it bitter, I'll buy you some gummies or something."'All of a sudden, he's being sweet again,' Kisa thought.She stared at him, as she was startled. For a while, she was in a daze.Gilbert gently patted the back of her head."Go upstairs and get some rest. I shoul
"Wherever I go is none of your business. In the future, I'll go out whenever I want to, and I won't be asking you. It's not like you'd agree to it anyway."Gilbert could sense the woman's evident anger, so he lowered his gaze and compromised, "Alright. I won't force you to rest at home. Are you happy now?""Really?"As soon as Kisa revealed a smile, Gilbert quickly added, "However, you need to tell me where you're going. You can't just go missing without a word.""I'm fine with that," Kisa nodded.'After all, I'm only going to the set. It's not like I'm doing something bad,' she thought."Also, you must be by my side the entire time today.""Why?"Hearing Gilbert's request, Kisa could not help but frown.However, Gilbert did not answer. He merely answered, "If you don't agree, then you're better off staying home lying down."'If I constantly don't let her go out, she'll surely be unhappy and resent me. However, it's raining today. I don't feel safe letting her go out alone. T
