"Yes! She's pregnant." the female doctor, who was on her forties, glared at him, "You should be a better husband. Don't you know she's pregnant?"
She'd seen tons of unreliable husband like this. They were rich and arrogant and cared little about their pregnant wives. As a woman, she couldn't help to protest for her women fellas.
Albie said nothing and stood still like a statue. How could she get pregnant? Whose child was it? Who was the guy? He couldn't tell what he was feeling. He felt sorry for her but he was shocked. He got desperate when he thought of the fact that Aurora was having a child with another man!
Cory came back after finishing the hospitalization procedure and found Albie standing at the door, in a daze.
"Mr. Doyle?" He had checked with the nurse that Aurora was fine, but why Albie looked so upset?
"Miss Robertson's room is over here. Would you like to see her now?"
Albie turned around slowly, stared at him for a while and came back to earth. He swallowed and tried hard to speak calmly, "Hmm. Wait for me in the parking lot."
"OK."
Albie turned back and stared towards the ward for another while, deep in thought. He managed to stay calm, went over and opened the door.
Aurora still looked very pale. She saw him coming in and forced a smile, looking embarrassed and guilty. "Albie..."
"You got something to tell me?" Albie looked bad. He wanted to comfort her and told her it was no big deal, but he still couldn't help it, "Why didn't you tell me?"
"You know..." Aurora smiled bitterly, closed her eyes, sighed and said in a very low voice, "I don't know it will end up like this..."
They didn't use condom when she had sex with Sion that night, and she was distracted when Nevaeh suddenly showed up. So, it had slipped her mind that she might get pregnant.
