All Chapters of Pregnant for A Stranger: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

"Ah Good, everything is fine. Your pregnancy is also fine. This might be because you're too emotional. So, control your emotions!" Jacob pressed the ultrasound machine on Hayle's lower abdomen, which still felt a bit crampy but not as severe as before. After he lay her down on the examination table, her condition improved significantly.Hayle took a deep breath and looked at what was on the monitor. She watched closely because she didn't fully trust this man anymore. Luckily, what Jacob said was true."But you need to do a lot of bed rest. I think your pregnancy is a bit weak." Jacob looked at her again. Although it wasn't a problem now, but the cramps in the lower abdomen during early pregnancy are a sign that something is not right. "So, what?" Jacob asked, putting down the ultrasound machine and looking at his friend's face, which was actually quite attractive. Hayle should be able to get another man instead of being stuck with Lucas."I don't know." Hayle exhaled and quickly turne

"Are you not eating?" Jaxter immediately entered Hayle's room, where Hayle was lying on the bed.Hayle, seeing the man's arrival, tried to calm down. It wasn't because he was afraid; he was just exhausted from vomiting repeatedly."I think you don't want to eat because it's bothering you. I also want to eat But my body won't let me!" Hayle said firmly, with a hint of annoyance. It was easy for this man to say that. He didn't feel it."You must eat!" Jaxter insisted. For him, it didn't matter what happened. What was important was that Hayle had to eat because he needed energy to keep his baby healthy."I don't want to My stomach is not feeling well!" Hayle remained in his position, wrapping his entire body with a lavender-scented white blanket, which was enough to calm him down.Jaxter took a deep breath, trying to calm down his anger. "Eat when you can eat. Don't risk your baby!" Jaxter certainly didn't know what else to do. If he didn't remember that there was a baby inside this woma

Hayle squinted muscles around her eyes, staring at the man seated on one of the sofas. He seemed absorbed in his own affairs, completely unknowable to Hayle. He had arrived moments ago without saying a word, and as far as Hayle knew, they were waiting for the nurse to take her for an examination."Can I ask you something?" Hayle finally spoke, unable to contain it any longer.The man didn't respond immediately. He paused from whatever he was doing and glanced towards Hayle with an indifferent look, uttering only a noncommittal "Hmm?" which irritated Hayle slightly."Why are you so sure this child is yours? I'm the one carrying it and I'm not even sure who the father is," Hayle asked, clutching her slightly tense lower abdomen. Not much had changed, but Hayle could feel it.How could she be carrying the seed of a man like him?Jaxter didn't immediately open his mouth, as if starting to move his lips was a difficult task. "I did a DNA test when you did one with your ex," he finally sai

Hayle glanced around the central hall of the house, feeling it fitting to be likened to a palace. The location seemed remote, not close to urban areas; during their drive back from the hospital, she noticed it was quite secluded. The main gate was far from the house itself, requiring them to pass through pine trees that kept the surroundings cool and green."Mr. Jaxter instructed that you may leave your room and roam anywhere around the house, except..." Roberto emphasized the exception. "Mr. Jaxter's main chambers and the building in the backyard. Apart from those, feel free to explore."Hayle smirked before nodding slowly. "And I cannot leave this place.""That's correct unless Mr. Jaxter approves.""What about the garden?" Hayle asked to confirm. "I just can't step past that gate, right? Wherever I go within these grounds, I'm allowed, except Mr. Jaxter's main chambers and that building." Hayle glanced towards the building visible through the glass wall, seeming smaller than the m

Jaxter slowly released Hayle's soft grip. He laid her down on the bed as comfortably as possible, even consciously pulling the blanket over the peacefully sleeping woman. She looked so innocent; no one would suspect the reckless actions she had taken to pursue another man. Thinking about it, Jaxter felt irritated again by Hayle's foolishness. After completing everything, he left Hayle's room."Sir." Roberto was surprised to see Jaxter still wandering outside her room at this late hour. He even saw Jaxter coming from Hayle's direction. There was a hint of joy and good presumption about this. Were they alone together?"I was just putting her to bed," Jaxter felt the need to explain. A moment later, he realized he didn't have to, so he continued back to his room. Roberto nodded silently. "One more thing," Jaxter stopped briefly, making Roberto face him directly. "Investigate the murder under the name Black Phoenix. I saw it on the news, the discovery of a body under the name BlackPhoenix
