Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage novel Chapter 20

Jenny has to accept his offer for she worries Luke would suspect her if she finds more excuses. She braces herself to follow him to the outpatient hall.

It’s weekend and there are really many patients. They even have to line up in front of the automatic registration machine.

Luke points at the rest area and says, “Go and find a seat there. I’ll line up for a service number.” He walks to the machine as he says, looking extraordinarily tall among the crowd.

Jenny sits next to the woman who should be pregnant for almost 8 months. The belly under the dress looks like a round watermelon. Jenny can’t distract her attention from it and feels scared.

It’s rather scary...

“Hello, are you with your husband?” The woman, biting a crispy red apple and asks. It obviously because she saw Jenny come here with Luke.

Jenny looks embarrassed and explains, “No, I...”

“Premarital pregnancy, right?” The woman seems to know everything. She talks to Jenny emotionally, “Hey, you should have thought about yourself. He’s rather good looking. Don’t you worry he would treat on you?”

Jenny goes speechless.

Before Jenny says something, the woman says to her ears, “Let me tell you this. Men are very likely to have an affair when their wives are pregnant. In your case, you should pay attention to that!”

At this moment, Luke is back with a service number.

“It was a long queue.” Luke asks as he sees sweat welling up on Jenny’s forehead, “Well, are you sick?”

Her mouth’s corners twitch.

She is not sick at all. She is just scared by the woman next to her.

The woman is sociable. When she sees Luke come back, she asks with a smile, “Your wife doesn’t look obviously pregnant. I guess it’s been two months, isn’t it? She might kick off the quilt in this period. You should take care of her.”

Luke doesn’t know what to say.

Jenny indeed kicked off the quilt the whole night and he tucked her in several times.
