Chapter 0248 

Hannah 

“Oh, how sweet…” 

“Look at how he’s holding her…” 

“They must really love each other…” 

I woke up with a start to the sound of hushed whispers and giggles over my head. Blinking slowly, I became acutely aware of two nurses standing at the foot of the bed, their eyes wide as saucers and their hands clasped as they looked down at me.. 

“Oh!” one of them gasped, taking a surprised step back when she saw that I was waking up. “We’re so sorry, we didn’t mean to disturb you.” With that, they both scurried out of the room, and I watched them go with a furrowed brow. 

realized then that I was still curled up against Noah’s side with his arm wrapped protectively around me. face instantly flushed as I realized why the nurses had been fawning over me, and I quickly moved to up and go back to my own bed. 

ut as I sat up, no matter how I tried to be gentle, Noah began to stir. His eyes fluttered open, focusing on me for a moment before drifting down to my chest. I followed his gaze and felt my cheeks heat up even more as I realized that my hospital gown had fallen open in the front in my sleep, exposing my bare breasts. 

“Oh,” I muttered, quickly pulling the gown closed with a nervous look on my face. 

The tips of Noah’s ears turned red and he cleared his throat, looking away respectfully. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to…” 

“It’s fine,” I said, my face still burning. I quickly stood and stretched, walking back over to my hospital bed. Noah sat up, his neck cracking as he also stretched. 

“How did you sleep?” he asked. When I glanced over at him, I could see that he had a sheepish expression on his face–likely because he didn’t remember pulling me into bed with him. 

Not wanting to embarrass him further, I said, “I slept fine. Sorry I fell asleep with you. I think I nodded off while we were watching TV.” 

Noah simply nodded, rubbing his eyes. 

It was then that a thought struck me. I figured he was asleep when I confessed to being pregnant last night, but I couldn’t help but worry. 

“Noah, what’s the last thing you remember from last night?” I asked, abruptly turning to face him. 

He furrowed his brow as he thought deeply for a moment. “Uh… I think we were watching some terrible show on TV, and I must have dozed off. Why?” 

I felt a small sigh of relief escape my lips. Telling him about the pregnancy last night had been a snap decision in the wake of everything that had happened, but now that the sun was up and I had gotten a good night’s sleep to clear my head, I was glad that he hadn’t heard it.

Perhaps soon I would tell him, but not now. “No reason I said quickly. “Just curious.” Noah looked skeptical but didn’t push it 

An awkward silence fell between us, broken only by the sound of a nurse entering with our discharge 

papers. 

A few hours later, we were released from the hospital. As we walked out into the bright sunlight, I squinted, feeling oddly vulnerable in the clothes Viona had brought for me–a simple t–shirt and jeans that felt too tight after the loose hospital gown.
