No Strings Attached novel (Clara and Ian) novel Chapter 343

Edwin figured it out immediately. He quickly grabbed the blanket from behind him and draped it around Clara. His voice was gentle and soothing. “Don’t worry. The baby will be just fine. Don’t think about anything right now. I’m here for you, okay?”

Even though Ian wasn’t by her side, Edwin’s words seemed to have some effect. Clara’s anxious heart began to settle down.

A few minutes later, Chase arrived with an obstetrician. After a few checks, the doctor said, “The baby’s fine for now. It’s just a bit of bleeding due to emotional stress. Rest in bed and I’ll prescribe some medication to stabilize the pregnancy. You’re okay with herbal remedies, right?”

Hearing this, Clara nodded vigorously. “No problem, write the prescription now, please.”

The doctor patted her arm reassuringly. “Don’t be nervous. Bleeding is normal and it doesn’t mean you’re going to miscarry because you did before. Try to relax. It’s better for the baby.”

“Alright, I got it. Thank you.”

Clara was arranged to stay in the opposite room, and for the baby’s safety, she didn’t dare to leave the bed. Edwin and a few others took turns taking care of Casey.

Two days later, Chase and Edwin were in the room when suddenly, the heart monitor for Casey started beeping erratically. Both men stood up in alarm.

When he saw the unstable EKG lines on the monitor, a look of concern washed over Chase’s face.

Edwin immediately asked, “What’s wrong? Is there a problem?”

As Chase checked Casey, he instructed, “Call the specialist team. We need to perform a resuscitation, but don’t tell Clara.”

“Okay.”

Minutes later, the specialist team rushed in. Casey was quickly wheeled into the emergency room.
