An Impossible Marriage novel Chapter 101

Chapter 101 

Margaret was dumbfounded. Noah, why did you bring me to see a gynecologist? I have an upset stomach, so bring me to the gastroenterology department first for a gastroscopy or something.It was too awkward to have a guy accompany her to see a gynecologist for her irregular menstruation

Noah replied seriously, I did what was told by Mr. Lewis.” 

Christopher asked him to do that? Is he trying to check if Im pregnant

She did not say anything else and followed Noah to the gynecology department obediently

Since it was a private hospital, and it was nighttime, there were not many patients around. She entered the consulting room and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the doctor was a middleaged woman. Initially, she was worried that it would be a male doctor.

Tell me your symptoms,the doctor said professionally

Um... My period is late for a month,Margaret answered

Do you experience any symptoms such as swollen breasts, nausea, or drowsiness?. the doctor asked again

Margeret panicked when she heard that, as she had all these symptoms mentioned by the doctor. Yes. What does it mean if I have all these symptoms?” 

Well, there is a high chance that youre pregnant. But I cant confirm after diagnosis. Are you married? How old are you?the doctor adjusted her glasses and asked

Hearing those questions, Margaret felt a strong urge to leave right away. Nonetheless, she glanced at Noah, who was standing by the door and answered, Yes, Im married. Im twentyone years old.” 

Okay, lets run some tests first. Come back to see me again after the results are out.The doctor then prescribed some tests for her

However, as soon as Margaret walked out of the consultation room, she felt anxious. Out of fear of knowing the results, she said, I think Im fine, Noah. I dont want to do the tests. Lets go back.” 

Noah thought she was afraid of needles, so he tried to comfort her, Dont worry. Youll be fine. Its just a blood test. You‘ll get pricked by a needle, thats all.” 

Margaret was rendered speechless. Left with no choice, she went to the phlebotomy department in the end. She stared at the nurse, who injected the needle into her blood vessel, drawing two test tubes of bright red blood

Seeing how calm Margaret was, Noah was confused. She doesnt look like shes afraid at all. Why is she freaking out just now

The test results came out in a short while. Nonetheless, Margaret could not understand the data that was written on it. On the way back to the gynecology department, Noahs phone rang. Mrs. Lewis, please excuse me. I need to take a call,he said before leaving

Margaret returned to the consultation room and handed her report to the doctor, who took a look and said, You‘re pregnant.

Are you sure?Margaret felt her hands and feet turn cold at that instant

The doctor noticed the look on her face and asked indifferently, If youre not ready to have a child, you should have taken preventive measures.” 

Margaret remained silent for a while before saying, No, its not that Im not ready. Im happy as long as the baby is healthy.”
