Chapter 247
"Doctor, is there something wrong with my stomach?"
After Sharon nervously asked, she felt anxious in her heart.
The doctor smiled at her, then motioned for her to calm down. "Did you have diarrhea?"
"Uh, no, I don't."
"Did you experience any pain in the stomach?"
"I don't think so, either."
After the doctor had finished with his questions, he frowned and said, "Your symptom doesn't seem to match with a stomach problem."
"Ah?" Sharon stared blankly. "Then... What's wrong with me?"
The doctor looked at her for a while and asked hesitantly, "Would it be convenient for you to tell me about your period? How long has it been since you had your last period?"
Sharon's heart skipped a beat at the doctor's question. As she held her breath, her eyes widened. "Doctor, you mean..."
Although Sharon had opened her mouth, she could not voice out the last few words.
Smiling, the doctor said, "I can't be sure either, but you can go to the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department for a checkup. I think it's not a gastrointestinal problem."
When Sharon pushed open the door and walked out, her mind was still in a mess.
How long had it been since her last period came?
Even she had forgotten about it!
For the past few days, her mind was all on Stanley. She did not have the time to take good care of her own body...
"Mrs. Jones!" Anthony saw her coming out with a sullen face. Immediately, he stepped forward and asked, "What did the doctor say? Is it something serious?"
Sharon shook her head while replying, "No... Nothing serious. I'm fine. By the way, I need to go to the toilet. You can go back to the ward and check on Stanley. I'll be right back."
"Hey..."
Anthony still wanted to say something, but Sharon quickly left.
She went straight to the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department!
As for why she did not let Anthony follow her, she was clueless. Perhaps this matter was too private, and she did not want Anthony to know. Or maybe, if she was pregnant, she wanted to give Stanley a surprise. The first man to know about this should be Stanley, not Anthony.
Arriving at the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department, Sharon lined up for registration. Sitting on the chair, she began to wait.
Half an hour later, it was finally her turn.
The doctor asked a few questions and then wrote a list for her to do the different types of examinations.
An hour later, she came to the doctor's office with the test sheet and sat on the chair. Her hands were trembling with tension.
Looking down, the doctor said, "You're pregnant! Around five weeks or so. Do remember to take care of yourself in the future, as well as the baby. The baby is still a little unstable, so I would advise any sexual activities to be avoided until the baby is stable, which is after three months..."
The doctor kept talking, but Sharon could not listen to any of it. Only the word "pregnant" kept lingering in her mind.
With that, she began to breathe rapidly. Her mood was extremely unstable, and her body was trembling...
Finally, her abnormal actions caught the doctor's attention, and he was shocked. "Hey, what's wrong with you?"
As he said that, he reached out to pat her on the back to calm her down. "Well, take a deep breath. Yes, that's it. Take your time..."
Then Sharon raised her pair of eyes that were red. "I'm... I'm fine. I'm just too excited."
"Is this your first pregnancy?" The doctor smiled. "It's normal to react like that for the first child, but I did not expect that you would be so excited... I saw that you came in alone. Where's your husband? Why didn't he come with you?"
"He... he's not feeling well, and he's in the hospital. I... I thought I had a stomach problem, so... I did not expect that I would be pregnant!"
Sharon's words were inarticulate, and her voice was trembling.
The doctor was older, but seeing her reaction, a smile painted across his serious face, "Well, you do remember what I had just said, right? Take good care of the baby, and it will be all right. Maybe I'll even be there to help you give birth."
"Thank you, doctor. What... what did you just say? Could you please repeat it? I don't think I remember..."
Hearing that, the doctor was a little dumbfounded.
In the ward.
"Why hasn't she returned?" The man on the bed frowned and looked at the door. His face was full of impatience. "How could you let her go to the toilet alone?"
Besides, she had been there for such a long time. Who would take such a long time in the toilet?
"Mrs. Jones said that she wanted to go to the toilet. I thought that as a guy, it would be embarrassing to go with her. So I did not follow her," Anthony probed, "I can go now to find her?"
"Go now to see what's going on."
"Yes!" All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Just as Anthony was about to leave, the door of the ward was pushed open. Anthony thought that it was Sharon, but when he looked up, he saw Howard.
"Dr. Perkins is here!"
Raising his eyebrows, Howard asked, "Eh? Are you going out?"
"Um..." "Fine, you can go. Since this has nothing to do with you." Howard took out something from his hand.
Stanley looked at the item in Dr. Perkin's hand, and his expression darkened. "Anthony, go and guard the door. If Sharon returns, don't let her in for the time being!"
Upon his orders, Anthony nodded. "Yes."
As he closed the door, Stanley's Adam's apple bobbed. To his surprise, he was afraid to extend his hand. "The report is out?"
"Yes." Howard handed over the DNA report and said, "Take a look."
Stanley stared at the thin piece of paper as if he wanted to pierce through it with his gaze. After a long while, he extended his hand, took it, and lowered his eyes to look at it. He read it word by word, and he read it carefully.
After he finished reading, his face was completely cold and sullen.
On the other side.
Due to her excitement and joy, Sharon secretly cried when she was in the toilet.
After she washed her face, Sharon made sure that her complexion looked better before slowly walking back to the ward.
How should she break this news to Stanley later?
Should she tell him directly? Or show him the test sheet?
Would he understand what he saw?
Should she tell him now, or in a few days?
If she told him only after some time, this man would probably go crazy...
As her thoughts were running wild, the elevator rang, and the door opened. When she saw the person outside the door, she was stunned.
Rebecca.
However, Rebecca was not alone. Beside her, there was a boy. He was about five or six years old and looked very delicate.
Initially, Rebecca did not expect to see Sharon at the elevator door. Soon, she came to her senses and said with a chuckle, "What a coincidence."
As she said that, she took Nathan into the elevator.
Subconsciously, Sharon moved to the side and a little further away from her.
"Nathan, say hi." Rebecca showed her son towards Sharon.
Hearing that, Sharon lowered her head and looked into the boy's pure eyes. He was very obedient and called her, "Hello."
"Good boy." Sharon smiled at him and raised her eyes to look at Rebecca. "Why did Miss Lambert bring a child to the hospital? It looks like he has a good relationship with you. Is he your relative's child?"
As if she had heard a joke, Rebecca laughed, "Relative's child?"
"Isn't that the case?"
"Nathan, tell this lady, what's your relationship with me?"
"She's my mom." Then Nathan pulled Rebecca's clothes. "Mom, didn't you say that you wanted to bring me to see daddy? Where is he? I want to see him."
"Be good. Daddy's not feeling well, so he's in the hospital. Let's go to visit him later. Don't worry."
"Okay."
As Sharon listened to their conversation, her mind exploded and her body swayed...
