Even Jewel’s friends were shocked by the revelation.
“So, that lady just now is the designer of cutebaby!
“If I’d known earlier, I would’ve watched my mouth and asked for her number.”
“We’ve missed such a great opportunity. Oh, man…..”
“Is she your cousin-in-law, Jewel? That’s amazing! You should quickly build a good rapport with her so that we won’t have to worry about getting our hands on new collections in the future.”
Jewel felt as if she was struck by lightning and wondered why Nathaniel had invested in Christina without telling her.
She was well aware that Nathaniel wasn’t the kind of person who would go to such great lengths for a
Woman.
The only explanation for everything Nathaniel did for Christina was that he had truly fallen for her.
Jewel was jealous of the special treatment Christina got from Nathaniel.
She could not understand why a distinguished man like Nathaniel would fall for a woman like Christina. At that instant, Jewel wanted nothing more than to have Christina disappear from the earth’s surface. Since things fell through, Christina had no choice but to ask the real estate agent to bring the contract to her studio another day.
She made a trip to the hospital and was told that Sharon’s condition had improved and that she could be discharged the following week.
As for Evelyn, she still had to remain in the hospital for her condition to be monitored.
It was only after visitation hours ended that Christina left the ward. Unexpectedly, she felt light-headed after only taking a few steps.
Her appetite had been poor lately, and she didn’t feel like eating. She wondered if it was because she was too busy and exhausted due to overworking.
Noticing that she seemed unwell, a nurse walked up and asked with concern, “Miss, you look pale. Should I bring you to see the doctor?”
At first, Christina wanted to refuse her suggestion. However, a wave of nausea hit her after the dizziness subsided, causing her immense discomfort.
The nurse helped her to the Department of Gynecology. After a brief inquiry, the doctor made her undergo a series of check-ups.
Half an hour later, Christina brought the test reports to the doctor.
“You’re pregnant. You should probably discuss with your family if you want to keep the baby” The doctor looked at the young lady before her, surmising that she must only be in her early twenties and didn’t have much experience in life.
Christina’s eyes widened in surprise when she heard that. She wondered if her ears had deceived her. “Doctor, there must be a mistake. H1-How can I be pregnant?”
There must be a mistake. Maybe the medical staff who examined me earlier did something wrong or gave me the wrong test report.
After adjusting his glasses, the doctor said solemnly. “Every test report here indicates you are pregnant, so there’s no way it can be wrong. Think about it carefully. Have you been experiencing morning sickness lately? A poor appetite and a bloated stomach? Also, do you often feel exhausted?”
I do have all these symptoms!
Unexpectedly, Christina found herself rejoicing inwardly when she realized she was indeed pregnant.
However, the next second, she grew worried She quickly took a bottle of pills out of her bag and showed it to the doctor. “But I’ve been taking birth control pills all this time. Will the baby be fine?”
Tears welled up in Christina’s eyes. She suddenly regretted taking contraceptive pills and felt like crying when she thought of the possibility of losing her child.
The doctor opened the bottle, poured out some white pills, and chuckled after a careful examination. “These are only vitamins, not contraceptive pills, you silly girl.”
“What? Vitamins? But I’m sure I bought…” Christina picked up one of the pills and examined it closely. The imprint on the pill clearly showed that it was a vitamin tablet, but it was so faint and unnoticeable that one would easily overlook it.
Could Nathaniel have changed my pills?
On second thought, she doubted it since Nathaniel had promised to respect her decision.
The doctor sent Christina to do an ultrasound scan, and fortunately, the fetus was fine. They even found out she was pregnant with twins.
