“I’ll take you to the hospital!”Fia looked at his face. He was running so fast that his bangs bounced in the air, revealing the scars on his forehead from the accident that was originally covered.She raised her hand and asked, “When you talked to her just now… Did you get anything from her?”“We’ll talk about it once we get back. Now, we should get you to the hospital,” Conrad said as he gently put her in the passenger seat and helped her put on the seat belt.Fia was silent for a moment. But when she saw him in the driver’s seat, she could see the layer of sweat on his nose from his nervousness.She said with a smile, “Why are you so nervous? I’m fine.”“Your chest is hurting, isn’t it? I’m worried that it might be from your previous sickness,” Conrad said sternly as he put on his seat belt and started the car.Fia then said, “But aren’t I emotionally unstable? My words are full of consistencies and I can’t be trusted?”Conrad was stunned as he stepped on the brakes and look
Once they were inside the doctor’s office, Fia pulled Conrad over. Once he was close enough, she whispered, “Can you please not tell so many people to come out next time? It’s very embarrassing.”Conrad disagreed and said, “This is a matter of life and death. We need all the specialists, and it has to be fast!”Fia was speechless. However, this was not something that they could come to an agreement now, so she decided to speak to him later at home.Conrad accompanied Fia all the way. Fia held one of his hands while his other hand was curled into a fist.While he looked calm, he was extremely nervous inside.He knew that having children was the ghost that haunted Fia’s heart.To him, the child meant more to him than just simple joy. The child was also the key to erasing their dark past.However, he didn’t dare to show any of it. He was worried that he would pressure her.Conrad asked all the specialists to run their battery of tests on her.Fia was quite healthy. She wasn’t sic
“When you’re pregnant, the hormones in your body will spike and that will stimulate the growth of your breast, which will cause nodules to become worse. However since Mrs. Maxwell’s is benign, it’ll be fine.” The doctor repeatedly told Fia it was a small matter, that it would not be a tumor, that it's not malignant, and all that.“Fia.” Conrad looked at Fia immediately and held her hand tight.Fia exchanged a gaze with him and suddenly guessed his thoughts.She shook her head. “I’m fine. Everything is fine.”Conrad swallowed. “Alright, let’s go home first.”“Alright!”The doctor looked at Conrad holding Fia’s hand as they left and could not help but say, “Remember to stay happy. Don’t stay up late. You need to watch your diet! Also, now is the early trimester of your pregnancy, so you must take good care of the fetal growth.”Fia suppressed her terrible mood and turned her head back to say thanks with a smile.The hospital director and the specialist looked at each other, both
“It won’t happen!” Sally shook her head in objection. “You’ve been fine all this while!”Peter said, “Just this year alone, I’ve lost two colleagues. You should also take notice.”Sally immediately said, “That was because the safety precautions in the research labs overseas weren’t sufficient! We are home now. It’ll be safe!”Peter smiled at Sally. “Better safe than sorry. In case any accidents happen, I’m afraid that I didn’t have the chance to let you know. When the time comes, how miserable would I be in hell?”He rubbed his sister’s head. “Why are you crying? How old are you already?”Sally wiped away her falling tears. “I’m not crying. My eyes are uncomfortable lately.”“Alright, you didn’t cry.” Peter smiled. “What did you want to tell your brother?”Sally looked at her gentle and considerate elder brother and felt upset that she was able to suspect her own closest brother!She immediately shook her head. “Nothing. It’s fine. It’s just something really small. I suddenly t
Sally’s emotions were a little out of control. “Pete, you’re not the kind of man who would play with other people’s feelings, right?”She could not understand. Her brother clearly said that he did not have that kind of thoughts toward Britney.So, why did he bring Britney back in the middle of the night to sleep over? They left very early the second day, clearly afraid that people at home would notice.Also previously, Britney came to look for Peter and went to Peter’s room.A guy and a girl alone in the same room.She mentioned it to him before. Her brother said that they were colleagues and were discussing matters regarding research.If they were already together then, why was there a need to hide? If it was a proper romantic relationship, why was there a need to act so surreptitiously as if they could not be seen by others?“I’m not.” Peter’s lips curved into a somewhat helpless smile.“You don’t have to be suspicious. I have never been the kind of guy who would play with a
“Sally.” He used great strength to smile at Sally gently and warmly and rubbed her head gently.“No matter if it's me, or you, or anyone else, we have all grown up and have our own lives. We all have the people we like respectively, we have our own secrets and now, there is no one who can be our role models anymore.“We need to be our own role models. Don’t look to anyone else, also don’t hold too many hopes toward others. That way, we are able to keep true to our initial selves and be ourselves.”Sally’s eyes opened wide, staring at Peter.The tears in her eyes were like pearls falling off a broken string, rolling down from the corner of her eyes like a river flowing, unable to stop no matter what.Peter could not face his little sister who had grown from a little girl into a gentle and kind girl. He pushed aside her hand that was grabbing his sleeve, found an excuse about work, and left hurriedly.Sally leaned against the wall and fell to the ground, her heart suddenly feeling
His mind was echoing the words the doctor said. [When you’re pregnant, the hormones in your body will spike and that will stimulate the growth of your breast, which will cause nodules to become worse.]After drinking the third cup of icy water, the heat in his heart lowered. He took out his phone to search for news regarding nodules at the breast.He saw that some doctors said that most nodules were benign and would not turn malignant. His suspended heart felt a little at ease as he continued to search. He found that pregnancy would cause the pregnant wife to have a bad temper and even some examples of benign nodules becoming malignant, and instantly his heart fell to the pits of the valley.He slammed his phone on the counter hard and his good-looking amber eyes turned gloomy.His heart kept swaying with uncertainty, whether to choose the child or Fia’s health.The pills earlier and other medicine that could help with the nodule could not be eaten! And pregnancy would worsen the
“Conrad, are you treating me like a goddess? Compared to you, I’m not even worth a finger of yours!” Fia acted angry as she spoke.However, she had just finished speaking when she could not help but kiss his face.Conrad’s brows wiggled and he revealed a gentle smile.“Fia, are you taking advantage of me?”Fia tilted her head and leaned back, smiling at him as she asked, “Then, are you tofu?”Conrad was speechless. He made a mistake. How could he be a piece of tofu?“If you are tofu, then you must be the best looking, best tasting tofu!” Fia’s brows curved as she pinched Conrad’s cheeks.Conrad laughed helplessly. “Is there any difference in the looks of tofu? All of them are squares with four corners. What difference would there be?”“I don’t care about that!” She hooked her arms around his neck, looking into his charming amber eyes.“In my eyes, you are the best looking. No matter what you are, you are the best looking!”Conrad lightly squeezed her slender waist. “You too.”
