Convenient Marriage: Mr. Nelson's Love Trap novel Chapter 737

She moved a bit, trying to sit up. Matthew strode over, helping her up.

Dolores sat up with his help and asked, “Is Armand gone?”

Matthew put a cushion behind her back and answered, “Yep. Didn’t you nap?”

Dolores looked spiritless, “I’ll have a checkup later, so I didn’t nap. I’m a bit thirsty.”

Matthew poured her a glass of warm water. She took it over and gulped down half glasses. Putting the glass on the nightstand, she asked, “What’s the time now?”

As soon as she finished asking, there were a few knocks on the door of the ward - a nurse came to inform them that it was time to do the checkup.

Matthew carried her in his arms and walked to the examination room.

Usually, the checkup was done during the daytime. However, there were too many patients during the day, so Dolores’s checkups had been arranged in the evenings. It would be quieter.

The doctor mainly checked the changes in her uterus. Through the four-dimensional B-ultrasound, everything could be seen clearly. During the checkup, they could see the baby’s face clearly.

Whenever Dolores wanted to take a look, Matthew didn’t allow it.

The baby that appeared under the B-ultrasound looked way too ugly. Matthew disgusted it a lot. He was afraid that Dolores would feel upset after seeing it.

He felt quite puzzled - Andrew and Amanda were both good-looking, but why was this baby so ugly?

Whenever the doctors were doing the checkup, he would frown deeply.

Dolores didn’t know what was going on, gazing at him.

The doctor said, “Look. Her uterus is quite thin now, only point four millimeters. In this case, some dangerous status could happen easily.”

Matthew’s face was tightened. He wanted Dolores to give birth to the baby ahead of time so that it could bring less harm to Dolores’s body. However, Dolores insisted on waiting until the eighth month. She wanted the baby to grow bigger and was afraid that it would be unhealthy.

If they could wait until the eighth month, it would be only one or two months before the delivery time.

“Call the nurse if something happens.” Doctors and nurses were on duty twenty-four hours in the hospital. Once something happened, they would be ready to help Dolores with a cesarean.

Matthew carried Dolores back to the ward. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she asked, “Why do you always look so weird when I’m under a checkup?”

Matthew asked, “Do I?”

Dolores nodded affirmatively, “Yes.”

Matthew answered, “I’m just worried about you.”

Dolores didn’t fully buy it.

He wouldn’t show that he was worried about her because he didn’t want to upset her. Also, she could tell that he looked weird after the doctor started the checkup.

She wondered what he had seen.

She decided to ask the doctor when there would be any chance.

The bed in the ward was bigger than the bed in a normal ward. Matthew could sleep with her while holding her at night. In case anything happened, he could find out right away.

In the morning, Jessica delivered breakfast to the ward. They didn’t like the dishes served in the hospital, which were not nutritious for a pregnant woman, so Jessica delivered three meals here to Dolores.

When Dolores was having breakfast, Matthew got a call from Abbott. He walked out of the ward to answer it.

“I failed to convince her,” Abbott uttered a few words simply.

Last night, when he went back home, he saw Emma sitting on the bay window in his shirt with a cigarette between her fingers.

Abbott didn’t know that she smoked. He walked over and pulled the cigarette from her hand. He asked, “Why didn’t you go to bed?”

Emma looked up at him, feeling quite puzzled. In the beginning, he was quite stubborn. No matter what she had done to threaten or seduce him, he wasn’t willing to help her. Later, he suddenly agreed without any reason. More or less, she suspected him.
