Turning Of The Tide (Natalie and Trevon)

Chapter 491

Just like that, for liveliness, Sherri stayed with the Landor family for the next half a month while Rose

carried on her plan. On January 35, she would stay at the Roberts family’s place on Monday,

Wednesday, and Friday. Then, she would stay at the Landor family’s residence on Tuesday, Thursday,

and Saturday. On Sunday, she would stay at her small home with Edward. Unknowingly, a month had

passed. Edward picked Rose up and down from work on time every day before they both went

home.

Rose was working at Athana Hospital.

During lunch break, Rose was about to follow the receptionist to the canteen for lunch. Just as she

stood up from the seat, she felt dizzy, and her vision went black.

It was dark before her, and she could not see anything. Her vision was black for a few seconds, but

Rose did not panic. She placed her hands on the table to relieve herself for a while.

After a while, she could see again. She lifted her wrist and looked at the date on her watch. If her guess

was correct, it might be because of that.

Recently, she had been so happy and busy that she had forgotten about her period cycle. She could

only get an answer after going for a check-up.

If it weren’t and she had told Edward, Edward would be disappointed. She didn’t want him to be

disappointed.

After lunch, Rose signed up for an obstetrics and gynecology department appointment. Because she

often stayed in Sherri’s consultation room, many of the doctors around Sherri knew her. She asked the

doctor to help write a list of tests and asked the nurse to help take her blood.

She had to go to work in the afternoon, so she could only use her privilege as a colleague.

Rose was very popular in the hospital. She was low-key, amiable, and easy to get along with. The

people from the laboratory department were willing to help her do the test. After a while, the results

were out.

She had been nervously waiting for the results. Rose paced back and forth in front of the laboratory

door. There was a click, and the door opened.

The colleague from the laboratory department came out with the report, smiled, and handed it to Rose. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

“Congratulations, you’re pregnant.”

Before Rose saw the report, she already had some guesses. However, she was still secretly delighted

when she heard her colleague’s words. She suppressed the joy in her heart and took the list. She took

a look and subconsciously placed her hand on her belly and touched it.

Her colleagues laughed. “You must be overjoyed. Your husband must be even happier. Prepare for this

surprise.”

Amidst her joy, Rose did not forget to thank the staff politely. “Thank you. I’ll treat you to a milkshake

next time.” She could buy them drinks even if she could not drink them herself.

As expected, it was definitely abnormal for her period to go haywire. It was either a hormone

imbalance, or she was pregnant.

On the way back to the consultation room, Rose was thinking about how to tell Edward about this gift.

Giving him the report was not enough. It would not be romantic enough, nor was it surprising enough.

She lowered her head to look at the report in her hand and fell into deep thought. Just as she reached

the door of the outpatient clinic, an idea flashed through her mind.

She quickly pushed open the door and entered the consultation room. Then, she opened the delivery

app and prepared something.

It was time to get off work.

Rose was in a good mood. She greeted everyone she knew with a smile on her face. She was holding

a black bag in her hand. There was something unknown in it. It looked square, and the box was quite

big.

The nurse passing by was also quite curious. “Dr. Roberts, what did you buy?”

Rose only told her half the truth. “It’s a gift for my husband. I’m getting off work. Bye.”

“Bye.” The nurse even turned to look at the gift in Rose’s hand. It was black, and she did not know what

it was.

Edward came to pick her up on time. Ever since he dated Rose, he was already a man who got back

and forth from work on time.

As soon as the alarm rang, he got up and left the office. Kyle, the poor assistant, did the rest of the

work. Edward was meticulous. He was afraid that Rose would not be used to being married. With him

around, she would feel more at ease.

Moreover, Rose had a chauffeur to pick her up every day before she got married. She couldn’t ask the

Roberts family’s chauffeur to pick her up after she married him. It was unreasonable and irresponsible.

Edward helped her with the seatbelt in the car and skillfully buttoned it. “Do you want to eat at home or

in the restaurant?” Wasn’t she going back to the Landor family today? Logically speaking, her mother-

in-law had already prepared delicious food.

Edward started the car and said gently, “Mom said it’s up to you. If you want to go home for dinner, go

home. You don’t have to follow the plan every day.”

“What’s that in your hand? Did you buy anything?”

Rose had been distracted by the dinner topic just now. Now that he asked, she began to feel excited

again. She hid her surprise. “About this, I’ll show you when we get home. You can’t open it now.”

Looking at his wife’s mysterious expression, Edward’s curiosity was piqued. “It’s so mysterious. Is it a

pet in this big box?” Weren’t humans high-level animals? The embryo on this list should be considered

a germinating small animal. “Yes, it’s a little high-level. I’ll show it to you when I get home.”

“Let’s go home and eat. I’ll show Daddy and Mommy my gift.”

Edward asked, “Isn’t the gift for me?”

At the traffic light, Edward turned around and glanced at the black bag. Why did Rose say that it was a

small animal? It did not even move. It made him wonder if it was asleep.

Rose pretended not to notice Edward’s sneaky glance. “Is Sherri home?”

“Yes, she’s here. No one will miss out on her.” She was the happiest every day.

Half an hour later, the car stopped at the entrance of the Landor family’s villa. Rose pushed open the

door and got out of the car. Edward walked around the back of the car to help her get the bag.

Rose did not avoid giving the bag to him directly. It was originally for him. Edward took the bag and

opened it to take a look. Inside was a red square box that was sealed. “Rose, didn’t you say it was an

animal? If you seal it all like this, it won’t be able to breathe.”

Rose thought, “Indeed. I was almost suffocated keeping this secret.”

For a carefree person, preparing for a surprise was the most difficult. Why? Because she couldn’t hold

back the secret and had to try hard to keep it.

The drama queen quickly urged, “Ah, I didn’t know. Is it suffocating? Then, let’s hurry home and open

the box.” Edward was also afraid of suffocating the animal in the box. He held the bag carefully with

one hand and held Rose’s shoulder with the other. “What animal did you buy? Why is it so light? It

doesn’t feel heavy.”

“You can still feel the weight. The smaller ones can be said to have just been nurtured. They’ll grow

bigger if you nurture them more in the future.”

Edward was puzzled by Rose’s words because the box was really very light. He could not think of any

animal that could be so light. He quickly walked home and did not object to Rose keeping small

animals as pets.

“Rose is back. We can start eating soon. Sit on the sofa and rest for a while,” said Juana quickly when

she saw Rose and Edward enter.

Sherri sighed. “My dear sister-in-law, I realize I have no status in this family anymore.”

Rose smiled. She was in a good mood today. He pushed the fruit to Sherri. “Have some. Where are the

two children?” Sherri refused and did not move. “Forget it. I don’t want to eat anymore. My mother has

already complained that my weight has increased today. I’d better control my mouth. Otherwise, the

face recognition machine will not be able to recognize

me.”

She was about to return to his post. It would be awkward if she really couldn’t enter the hospital.

Then, she answered the question, “She’s sleeping upstairs. Ruby is accompanying her. This child

insisted that we come down to watch over her brother.”

Rose thought, “Ruby is the angel baby of the couple.”

“Brother, what’s that thing in your hand? Why is it so big? Did you buy it for me?”

Edward said, “You’re thinking too much.” As he spoke, he began to open the box. He took out the red

box and placed it on the coffee table. Rose cooperated and moved the fruit on the coffee table to the

side.

Everyone’s eyes were fixed on the red box above the coffee table, attracting Juana’s attention. As for

Hackett, who was coming down from upstairs, stood beside Edward.

Edward was depressed. He did not dare to open it. He looked up and met Rose’s eyes. He saw that

she was smiling happily.

Hackett’s curiosity was piqued. He urged, “Why don’t you open it? It’s not some bomb. What are you

stopping for?”

“That’s right. Edward, open it. We’re all waiting.”

Under everyone’s gaze, Edward opened the red box and found that it was not over. In it was still a red

box. After opening it, there was another red box. There were a total of five. A tiny red box lay within the

big box.

Edward took a deep breath. He really felt like he was dismantling a bomb. The people beside him were

focused, and the dismantler was nervous. Rose really wanted to see Edward’s expression when he

saw the report.

Clutching Sherri’s shoulder tightly, Sherri looked up and saw that the gift was from Rose. Her brother

would never buy this thing. “What did you prepare for my brother? Each box is smaller than the last. It’s

almost empty.”

Sherri thought, “Is this a magic trick? This couple is bizarre.”

Rose said, “Surprise.”

Edward opened the last box. There was nothing in it. There was only a medical report lying there. The

logo of Athana Hospital was on it. There was also some data from the laboratory. He could not

understand it but picked it up and looked at it. It was Rose’s medical report. There was an indicator that

exceeded the normal range.

At the side, Hackett and Juana tiptoed to look at the report. “Fuck, she is pregnant.”

Hackett said this. He had an obstetrician-gynecologist at home, so he had to learn professional

knowledge. Otherwise, he would be letting Sherri down.

Since he had nothing to do at night, Sherri was afraid that she would forget his professional knowledge.

Everyone said that pregnancy made one stupid for three years. Every day before bed, she would drag

Hackett to read books, memorize terms, and watch videos.

Hackett felt that if Sherri stayed home for another year, he would probably be able to enter the hospital

for an internship.

As soon as he said this…

The entire living room was extremely quiet. It was so quiet that they could hear each other’s breathing.

Sherri was the first to react. She stood up from the sofa and leaned over to take the medical report

from Edward’s hand. “Damn, Rose, you’re really pregnant.”

As soon as the professional Dr. Landor spoke, Juana quickly walked over and brought Rose to the

side, far away from Sherri Juana glared at her daughter. “Can’t you be more cultured? You’re so noisy

every day. Rose, let’s stay away from her. Are you feeling unwell? Do you feel tired?”

Edward quickly walked to Rose’s pasta and squatted without waiting for Rose to say anything.

“Rose…” He was so surprised that he could not find the words. He leaned closer to take a look. There

was redness in Edward’s eyes. It was excitement and restraint.

Juana patted her son. “Hurry up and carry Rose upstairs to rest. It’s not time for dinner yet. Rose is

tired from working for the day.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Rose was gently picked up by Edward and walked towards the

stairs. Juana even instructed, “Walk slower.”

“Tsk, tsk, tsk. Mom, don’t be so nervous. Rose just got pregnant, not going to give birth prematurely.

Don’t be so exaggerated about it.” Although Sherri was thrilled, his mother’s cautiousness would make

Rose nervous.

Juana was still in a pleasant surprise. She placed her hands on her hips and paced back and forth,

thinking about what to prepare for dinner. “Don’t eat so much. It’s almost time for dinner.”

With that, Juana went into the kitchen. Hackett and Sherri looked at each other tacitly and shook their

heads helplessly. The Landor family was going to get busy again.
