Stuck in you

Chapter 209 You're So Annoying

However, during their investigation, they found something.

Back then, Henry had thought that these only happened in soap operas, but unfortunately, he was wrong.

"My aunt had three miscarriages, that my grandmother just couldn't watch her suffer, you know? So she asked the doctor if the couple had any physical condition that could prevent them from having a baby,"

he explained.

"The result was shocking. The doctor discovered that the fetus couldn't grow naturally because of the abnormalities of the couple's DNA. There weren't any infections or abnormalities per se,

but it's just that they're too similar!

Turns out, my great grandfather and the man's grandfather were brothers."

Lea's jaw dropped as she gazed at him in disbelief. "Is that true?"

He nodded. "The man's father is actually related to us. In fact, he's one of our relatives. His parents divorced when he was a child, so he lives with his mother.

Although they weren't part of the immediate family, they're still related by blood."

Henry remembered the shock on his grandmother's face. She was so surprised that she actually locked herself up in a room.

After a period of time, she had absorbed the idea and started to arrange all the chaos that had erupted in the household.

She might have experienced plenty of disagreements and obstacles,

but this was the first time she had encountered such a thing.

The man knew about the results, but Henry's aunt still knew nothing about it.

The Qin family all made sure to keep it from her and the outsiders.

It would be such a disgrace if news were to break out.

As it could be seen,

the marriage between them wasn't a good thing.

In fact, it could disparage their reputation.

They chose not to tell Henry's aunt to not hurt her feelings, but three miscarriages were enough to arouse suspicion.

His aunt was not stupid. Back then, all her family members had agreed with the marriage, but after the results, they started voicing their thoughts against it.

Her brother was the prime example for the matter.

Finally, after her careful investigation, she found out the results.

Things were still a mess at home. If Henry told them that he got his girlfriend pregnant

and that he was also planning to marry her, it would just add salt to the injury.

Henry winced.

His aunt still hadn't solved her own issues yet, and he was already rubbing his own happiness against her face.

At that moment, it would hurt them more if he cut to the chase.

"It's not that I don't want to inform my family now, but..."

Before he could finish, Lea waved her hand dismissively.

"I understand what's going on. We can wait."

It seemed that she finally came to terms with his past.

She rubbed the back of her neck and avoided his intense gaze as she continued,

"I've already accepted you the moment I agreed to your proposal. Whatever happens may happen, but you're the only one who I value the most, okay?" She tried to hide her rosy cheeks, but it was impossible. In reality, Lea loved Henry with or without the baby.

Upon hearing her words, Henry felt his throat dry up. He stretched out his arm and held her against his chest.

He had always thought that she only agreed to him was because she didn't have a choice.

Being voluntary and being forced were two completely different things. Although Lea was first unwilling to marry him, he had hoped that she wouldn't agree to him because of the child. He wanted her to agree with him because she loved him.

When he heard her words, he was over the moon.

"Trust me when I tell you that I'm not hiding you from them. I want to go home and check what's going on. If it doesn't work out, then we can register first." He gazed at her guiltily. "It's just that I can't give

you a wedding at this time."

Lea didn't expect that him would plan something like this.

Henry couldn't have someone bearing his illegitimate child. As her husband, he was responsible in giving Lea a proper, legal marriage.

But reality was simply too cruel. At this point, Henry was getting restless. 'I came unprepared,' he scolded himself.

His family was in total chaos and a part of him was afraid that Lea would only get hurt if she married him.

Knowing his plan, Lea said, "I don't think it's a good idea. Your family might get angry if they knew about this."

Henry smiled. "I'll be careful. Besides, I'm sure Grandma will be ecstatic when she finds out the news." NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Her grandson, who had been living such a dissolute life, was going to get married. And soon enough, he was going to give her the great-grandchild she had always wanted.

However, with her daughter's problems, she would be placed under a dilemma as to who she needed to prioritize.

That wouldn't be good for them.

That was why Henry planned to tell his parents first.

He didn't have to worry about them too much. Even if his aunt was in a pitiful situation, their son and daughter-in-law should be at the top of their priority. They would surely make the appropriate arrangements.

The two decided that Lea would stay at home while Henry would go to his family.

People had always said that the first three months of pregnancy was one of the most dangerous periods. He was worried about her, so he decided to leave Lea in her home first.

Henry had tried to calm his furious father-in-law. At the same time, Lea tried her best to ease her father's frown.

Relieved, Henry left in a hurry before the old man could change his mind. In fact he had no idea, that right after he left, his father-in-law had already calmed down. He patted his daughter's shoulder. "It doesn't matter if the man doesn't come back,"

he stated, taking her by surprise. "I can always find another one for you."

Lea bit back a laugh, nodding obediently.

"I'll listen to you, Dad."

Upon hearing this, her father beamed. "That's my girl! We can always replace him anytime you want."

Lea answered with a smile. She knew that her father was only uncomfortable with Henry because he thought that the young man had stolen his daughter under his gaze.

A part of him was also afraid that his daughter would simply forget about him.

Her daughter's response calmed him down. After all, Lea knew the best way to deal with her father.

As soon as Henry's plane landed, he called his father.

He wanted to talk to him first before he called his mother.

"There's something important I need to discuss with you," he said cautiously.

His father frowned. "You can come to the company."

Lea called Rachel to inform her of what was going on with her family. Hearing her best friend in such a happy mood, Rachel felt happy for her.

However, there was another thing worrying her—her speculated pregnancy. She glanced at the test kit in her bag.

Although she still wasn't sure yet, she couldn't help but feel scared and excited for what was to come.

Back then, she swore to herself that if she ever found herself to be pregnant, she would give birth to the child no matter what.

Now, she still shared the same sentiments.

Rachel calculated the time since her period had been delayed.

When Jack wanted to have sex with her that night, she was unwilling. She pushed him and sat up. "I'm going to sleep in the guest room," she snapped. "You're so annoying!"
