Catherine Jones and Shaun Hill novel Chapter 74

Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 74
Catherine was momentarily stunned. With a smile, she said, “Madam, I think you’re mistaken. My cat’s just a little too fat.”

“I don’t think so. I bumped into your husband earlier and even asked him about it. Your husband admitted that the cat is pregnant.”

“My husband?”

Was the lady referring to Shaun?

Indeed, Shaun would walk the cat occasionally. However, Fudge was not pregnant.

“Madam, I’m sure you’ve mistaken someone else for Shaun.”

“That’s unlikely. I might be a bit far-sighted, but your husband’s appearance is one of a kind. No one else in the neighborhood resembles him. Even those celebrities on TV aren’t as good-looking as him. What’s more, my cat is quite familiar with your cat as they’ve played together several times.”

As the lady was speaking, her cat came over. Fudge immediately meowed to greet the cat. They seemed close as if they were old acquaintances.

Catherine was completely disheartened. Was Fudge pregnant?

Hang on, Fudge was actually a female cat?

God, she had always assumed that Fudge was a male cat.

It was because Fudge always pestered Catherine, and moreover, her name sounded masculine.

“Apparently, you have poor vision, young lady. From her huge stomach, you can obviously tell that she’s pregnant. Didn’t your husband inform you about it?”

“I…” Damn.

“Thank you for reminding me. It’s my first time rearing a cat.”

After Catherine bid the lady goodbye embarrassedly, she swiftly took a taxi to a veterinary hospital.

After the vet performed an ultrasound on the cat, he held his glasses and said, “You’re so relaxed, young lady. Your cat is going to give birth very soon.”

“…”

A series of garbled characters flashed across Catherine’s mind.

Before she fully registered the news that Fudge was pregnant, she was told that Fudge was going to give birth soon.

“There are still ten more days until the due date,” the doctor added, “Keep a watchful eye on her these days. Anyway, her fur looks soft and shiny, so I’m guessing she usually has a nutritious diet and is quite fit. She should be able to give birth naturally.”
