Zephyr chuckled dryly and quickly let go before he stared at Cordelia.
“Cordelia, do you have other reactions?”
“Well…” Cordelia recalled carefully and shook her head. “I don’t think so.”
“Phew!” Zephyr breathed in relief, and a hint of a smile finally appeared on his nervous face. “Good that there’s none!”
“What?”
“I mean…” Zephyr wiggled his brows. “No reaction means you’re not pregnant!”
“Not necessarily so.” Seth prodded his gold-rimmed glasses and explained like a teacher, “Each person’s different, so their reactions in pregnancy are different too! Some women have a good appetite, sleep a lot during pregnancy, and don’t have nausea at all!”
“Seth!” Zephyr glared at him. “You have too much to say!”
Seth was rendered speechless and froze on the spot.
Zephyr was actually feeling contradictory. He hoped for a child to stop the elders from nagging, but he did not want a child to disturb his and Cordelia’s alone time. When he thought of the aggressive little kid in his dream, especially, he felt more frustrated.
Fredric could not help laughing when he saw how Zephyr looked like he was going to meet an enemy.
“Zephyr, you know what?” Seth suggested, “Buy a test kit at a nearby pharmacy for Cordelia first, then come to my clinic tomorrow morning so I can get someone to give her a detailed checkup.”
“Yeah.” Fredric agreed. “There’s no point for us to make wild guesses here. It’s better to get it checked.”
“I think… I don’t think she’s pregnant.” Zephyr coughed and tried his best to look calm. He was inwardly panicking. He did not want someone additional to fight for his wife with him!
Fredric patted his shoulder with a smile and left Royal Manor with Seth.
