When the two of them returned home, Stacy had a smile on her face, but Jerry's face was very gloomy. He thought of his recent grievance.
At the thought of the anger he had suffered in front of David because of Stacy and the fact that he had been framed up and Stacy was going to make trouble, he was even angrier.
After Stacy fell asleep, Jerry couldn't help but go to the living room. He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. He hadn't smoked for a long time since Stacy was pregnant.
He also drank as less as possible. It was a rare thing for Jerry to do this for someone else.
But Stacy's performance made him very dissatisfied.
He felt that his temper had reached a critical point and was about to explode, but unfortunately, he had not achieved all his goals yet, so he had to endure it.
There were more and more cigarette butts in the ashtray, and Jerry was enveloped in smoke.
He had to speed up his pace and get the company of Alston as soon as possible. After he got the real power, he didn't have to be controlled by Stacy and didn't need to care about these trifles of engagement.
While Jerry was plotting in his mind, Stacy was sleeping in the bedroom. Thought of Jerry's attitude towards her and her child, his anxious explanation, and those sweet words, Stacy believed once again that Jerry still loved her and her child.
In the hospital, after leaving, Melinda and Jonas began to look for a doctor. The chief physician had been checking the condition of Melinda and the child all the time. Jonas had informed them in advance, so Melinda didn't need to waste time in the line.
Compared with the last examination, Melinda's belly was much bigger. The doctor couldn't help teasing her. The pregnant woman's belly was like a balloon.
The result of the examination came out very soon. Both of them were very healthy, and Melinda would not lack any elements as before. Hearing this, Melinda was finally relieved. She touched the baby in her belly, and the smile at the corners of her mouth became much gentler.
Seeing this, Jonas felt that there was a motherly glory in Melinda's temperament. As a mother, she was strong. Although Melinda was soft, she would become strong when it came to the child.
The baby was getting bigger and bigger, and it was close to the expected date of childbirth. The doctor told Melinda that it was best for her to recuperate at home recently, and she needed to exercise when she had time, so that she could feel relaxed during the childbirth.
Melinda was full of expectation for the baby in her belly. Although the Gu family had the ability to know the gender of the baby, no one mentioned it so far, which made her very happy.
She had thought that Queena would care about the gender of the baby, but she didn't expect that she said nothing from beginning to end, and she was very considerate to her and the baby.
"I'm more and more looking forward to the birth of the baby," Melinda said gently. Her eyes were full of tenderness, but she was a little nervous, because she knew that she would encounter all kinds of conditions during the delivery.
Many people said that giving birth to a child was a rebirth.
Looking at her belly, Jonas became more and more worried. In fact, he supported Melinda to choose a proper time to have a C-section instead of giving birth.
The process was really frightening.
However, after seeing a lot of people say that natural labor was better than C-section, Melinda didn't agree at all. She also said that other people could give birth to the baby, but why couldn't she?
In a word, her stubbornness also made Jonas feel headache.
Every time when Melinda had a check-up, Jonas would spare a day to accompany her. After that, he would take her out to play.
Since the previous few times when Melinda was in a bad mood and almost had a mental problem, Jonas paid special attention to taking her out for relaxation.
Melinda was in a good mood. When she returned home, she was in a good mood to share it with Queena. Seeing that Melinda's expected date of childbirth was approaching, Queena said basically the same words as the doctor.
Melinda knew her own physical condition, so she didn't dare to be willful at all. She promised them, "I will take good care of the fetus at home."
The expected date of childbirth was approaching, and everyone at home was in a tense atmosphere, especially Jonas. He heard that the baby could be born at any time after nine months, and he didn't stay in the company for more than six o'clock during this period of time.
If possible, he would go home early to accompany Melinda. He asked those questions tirelessly every day, and his father to be posture was also laughed at by Queena.
However, Jonas was not in the mood to care about it now. He had been suffering from fear all day long. He only hoped that the baby could be born and be unloaded as soon as possible, and he could rest assured.
But this child seemed to be trying to make everyone look forward to more days, and was unwilling to come out.
Melinda was taken good care of at home. She looked ruddy. Unlike the early stage of pregnancy, she now gained weight and became much fatter.
The one who had the most sense of achievement was Jonas, while Melinda began to worry about how to recover her figure after giving birth to the baby.
