Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 913

"Pregnant?"

Warren whipped his head to look at Celine's stomach upon hearing this, shocked but thrilled.

How could she be pregnant?

They had always been so careful with protection.

Celine placed her hands over her stomach, too stunned to speak.

"Are you sure?"

Warren asked cautiously. "Could it be a misdiagnosis?"

"A misdiagnosis?"

Juniper leaned back, her clear eyes flashing with a cold, sarcastic glint. "Are you saying that Dr. Nocturne can't even diagnose a simple pregnancy?"

Warren was rendered utterly speechless.

Right.

How dare he question the medical expertise of Dr. Nocturne?

"How far along?"

Warren didn't know how to describe his feelings right now. He was overjoyed that Celine was having a baby.

But—

Her body hadn't fully recovered. Could she handle the physical toll of a pregnancy?

"Shouldn't I be asking you two that?" Juniper scowled at him.

Warren thought hard. Their last intimate moment had been a month ago.

So.

The baby was likely conceived then.

Warren frowned, no longer caring about how the accident happened.

His only concern was his wife's health.

"Will the pregnancy affect her body right now?" Warren's expression was grim.

"We'll need to run some blood work." Juniper said, sitting on the sofa, looking just as displeased as her brother-in-law. "But she's been off her medication for a long time. Logically, she should be fine."

"However, since her body is still recovering, being pregnant right now is going to be incredibly tough on her."

Juniper then unleashed a harsh scolding on Warren.

"I'm sorry."

Warren didn't dare talk back, acting surprisingly meek. "Even though it was an accident, I take full responsibility."

"Obviously!"

"I won't let anyone touch him."

Celine continued backing up, staring tearfully at Juniper. Her voice was hoarse as she pleaded, "Juniper, I'm perfectly healthy. I can protect this baby."

Seeing her sister look so pitiful, Juniper felt a pang in her chest. She muttered, "I never said you couldn't keep the baby."

It was all Warren's idea.

"You mean..." Celine's eyes sparkled with hope as she asked cautiously. "I can keep the baby?"

"Let's get some blood work done first."

Juniper called for Liberty Island's resident doctor.

The results came out quickly.

Just as Juniper had diagnosed, it was indeed a pregnancy.

The ultrasound confirmed she was one month along.

Looking at the tiny seed-like shape on the report, Juniper felt a complex swirl of emotions.

The blood tests were excellent, and the fetal heartbeat was strong.

It looked like a very healthy baby.

So she was going to be an aunt.
