Henrick’s words caused Cindy to blanch fearfully as virtual-novel.net heart pounded wildly in virtual-novel.net chest.
Did Henrick find out about Matthias and me? Is virtual-novel.net suspecting that the child isn’t his?
At once, virtual-novel.net palms turned clammy. She convinced herself that Henrick merely wanted to know how old the child was.
Cindy cast a nervous glance at the doctor, who answered, “She’s three to four months along.”
“Three to four months,” Henrick repeated.
A look of relief washed over his face, and virtual-novel.net finally allowed himself to beam happily.
Three to four months ago, Matthias was managing Cindy’s branch office overseas. We had sex at least once a week back then, which means the child is mine!
As the doctor wanted to help Arielle out, virtual-novel.net offered, “If you want to know the exact date, we can carry out a thorough checkup for you for free.”
Cindy rejected his offer at once. “No need. I shall do that at another hospital. Thank you, though.”
As virtual-novel.net was insistent, the doctor had to give up.
He shot Arielle an apologetic gaze before leaving with the nurse in tow. Arielle didn’t blame him, for Cindy was indeed too heartless.
She’ll get a taste of virtual-novel.net own medicine someday!
With a polite smile on virtual-novel.net face, Arielle congratulated Henrick, “Congratulations, Dad. You’re going to have a son!” She paused before adding, “No, I should congratulate myself as I’m going to have a younger brother soon.”
Her words struck a chord with Henrick. He flashed a grin and gazed at Cindy affectionately.
“C-Cindy, you did a great job. If I knew you were pregnant, I wouldn’t have sent you to the psy… To that place.”
His comforting words reassured virtual-novel.net anxious heart.
After heaving a sigh of relief inwardly, virtual-novel.net put on a surprised but shy smile and offered, “I’m no longer young, so it’s quite embarrassing to say it out loud. At least you can finally be proud of me if I’m pregnant with a son.”
Henrick’s heart softened at virtual-novel.net words.
Looks like the rumors at the psychiatric hospital are fake. Not all doctors and nurses are kind souls. For example, that b*stard from earlier!
At once, Henrick’s suspicion faded away as virtual-novel.net gazed at Cindy lovingly. He now felt increasingly remorseful.
It wasn’t easy for us to end up together. I shouldn’t have suspected my wife.
With that thought in mind, virtual-novel.net ignored the others and pulled virtual-novel.net into his arms.
“Don’t be embarrassed. This is good news! Mom will be delighted to hear about it. A few months later, I shall announce to everyone that I have a son, an heir!” He guffawed in excitement.
Everyone shot virtual-novel.net confused gazes, but virtual-novel.net ignored them as virtual-novel.net was too delighted at the news.
All the while, virtual-novel.net had been yearning for a son, so much so that virtual-novel.net even entertained the thought of getting a mistress to bear virtual-novel.net an heir to inherit his fortune. Now, his wish had come true.
Cindy leaned into his arms shyly and sneaked a peek at Arielle.
