NOVEL NEXT WORLD Chapter 736 - 739: Congratulations, You Are Pregnant
Chapter 736: Chapter 739: Congratulations, You Are Pregnant
Time went back to one month ago.
When she left A City, Lily Gray didn’t know she was pregnant.
Unable to stay in Eastonia and unwilling to go to M Country, Lily went to a European country, finding a conveniently located, comfortable, and safe apartment.
The apartment was close to a world-renowned university. She couldn’t return to Eastonia, but leaving didn’t mean giving up.
Lily planned to study child education and psychology abroad.
She knew that she probably couldn’t return to Ethan Wilson in this lifetime.
But Ben Lucas, even though she couldn’t accompany him as he grew up, she thought of him every moment.
Unable to participate in Ben’s growth, she decided to further her studies, hoping that, at the very least, when they had the chance to meet again, she could make him feel as safe and cared for as possible.
However, accidents often happen faster than plans.
Just after she rented the apartment and completed the enrollment process.
One morning while preparing breakfast, when she opened a can of canned tuna, the usually appetizing meal suddenly became nauseating.
She immediately ran to the bathroom, hugged the toilet bowl, and almost vomited up gastric acid.
When the nausea and vomiting finally subsided, Lily, who had given birth once before, instantly realized what her current reactions meant.
Pregnant?
She was actually pregnant!
Her mind went blank for a moment, but she quickly snapped back to reality.
When she was a mother, she was at her strongest. Moreover, this child was simply a gift from heaven to her.
Despite her optimistic demeanor during the day.
At night, when she was all alone.
All her pretenses would fade with the loneliness.
She didn’t know how many nights she had not slept through to dawn.
Always thinking of Ben, thinking of Ethan Wilson, and only when she had cried herself exhausted, her pillow completely soaked, could she close her eyes in a daze and slowly go to sleep.
Longing is so tormenting.
That pain isn’t one of a white knife going in and a red knife coming out.
It’s a dull ache, slowly, bit by bit, tormenting your nerves.
Endless longing and regret almost drove her insane.
But it was at this hopeless moment that God opened a window for her.
“Baby…” Lily gently stroked her belly, feeling nothing under her hand, but she seemed to feel a heartbeat.
Right away, she decided to go to a hospital for a check-up.
Fortunately, she wasn’t penniless when she left the country. Although she didn’t take a single penny of Ethan Wilson’s property before leaving.
The Gray family was in her hands.
Lily’s assets, though not comparable to those of top billionaires, were sufficient to live comfortably.
Because she cherished this child so much, Lily searched online and decided to go to a well-known private hospital not far from her community for a prenatal check-up.
After filling in the information online and making an appointment with a doctor, she continued with her daily routine.
The second pregnancy wasn’t as delicate as the first one.
Aside from getting nauseous easily when smelling food, she seemed emotionally calmer in all other respects than during her first pregnancy.
She continued attending university as usual, as an unspoken promise to Ben in her heart.
Her studies would not be interrupted just because she was pregnant with a second child.
Two days later, on a day without classes, Lily took the subway to her scheduled hospital appointment.
She chose a blonde, blue-eyed, and very experienced female doctor.
After completing the check-up and the B-ultrasound examination.
The blonde, blue-eyed female doctor sat across from her and smiled warmly, “Congratulations, you have a healthy in-utero pregnancy, the fetus is already 45 days old…”
