Chapter 203
Klein took the six pregnancy test sticks from the delivery man, who was grumbling under his breath.
Who in their right mind orders delivery all the way up this mountain? If it weren’t for that generous tip. I wou bothered, the delivery man muttered to himself.
“Thanks. If there’s good news. I’ll send you a bonus,” Klein said.
The delivery man’s face lit up instantly. Thank you. Wishing you twins, one boy and one girl!”
Klein felt a warm sense of comfort at the blessing.
“Thanks, let’s hope so.” Klein replied.
Outside the ladies’ room. Klein felt like each second was dragging on for an eternity.
“Honey, are you done yet?” Klein called out.
“Stop rushing me. Klein! Now I can’t even pee because you’re stressing me out!” Whitney snapped back.
“Oh, honey, don’t worry. Take your time. Want me to whistle for you? Maybe it’ll help you pee!” Klein joked.
“Shut up!” Whitney shot back.
Anyone passing by who wanted to use the restroom found themselves in an awkward spot, thanks to Klein posted u door like a bouncer.
Klein, all smiles, even gave them a friendly wave, inviting them in.
‘Guess I’m doomed to be constipated today,’ one of the employees thought.
When Whitney saw all six pregnancy test sticks came up with double lines, her eyes filled with tears. She took a quick | and send it to Klein.
Klein stared at the results, dumbfounded. “Honey, what do two lines mean? Does that mean you’re pregnant or not
Whitney came out, straightening her clothes. “You dummy! Two lines means I’m pregnant!”
Klein pulled Whitney into his arms, so thrilled that he almost wanted to twirl her around. But then he remembered how precious her belly was. No way he’d risk it, not with his baby girl inside.
Klein had his arm around Whitney as they headed back to the campsite, and everyone was sturing, trying to gure out wh was going on.
Klein was grinning from ear to ear today “Sorry, you guys enjoy yourselves. Im heading back to the cuy
Someone finally got up the nerve to ask, “Mr. Harris, what’s the deal with you and Ms. Music

Valene, suddenly flustered. rushed to revise her wish, just in case God thought she was getting greedy.
Once they got in the car. Whitney couldn’t help but smile at how surreal everything felt.
She’d never expected that before they left, when Klein asked her when they should go public, her casual joke announcing it once she got pregnant would actually come true.
Whitney glanced over at Klein, who looked totally calm. “Klein, aren’t you excited about becoming a dad?”
“Of course I am.” Klein replied, turning to her with a flash of pure joy in his eyes. “Honey, my hands are actual Feel them.
Whitney giggled. “Look at you, all worked up.”
After they made their way down the mountain and got to the hospital, the blood test meant another long wait.
But in the end, Klein finally heard the doctor say, “Congratulations!”
“The baby is just five weeks old. No sex for the first three months, and none for the last three. If you really can’t h middle, just be extra careful,” the doctor said.
“Did you drink or take any meds in the past month or two before you got pregnant?” the doctor asked.
Whitney shook her head and said, “No, I’ve been trying to get pregnant, so I haven’t done any of that.”
“Also, make sure to keep your weight in check, eat a balanced diet, and skip any intense workouts. Just stick to walki Watch out for any bleeding or stomach pain, and remember to come in for your regular check-ups,” the doctor advi
Klein kept bonbarding the doctor with questions, until the poor man was clearly running out of patience
“Relax, it’s normal to be nervous when you’re first-time parents. Try to stay calmy because your mood matters a lot du pregnancy. And trust me, how you’re feeling can really rub off on your wife!” the doctor said.
After thanking the doctor politely, Klein wrapped his arm around Whitney’s waist and walked her out of the hospital.
“Honey, I’m really going to be a dad,” Klein murmured, still in a daze, barely believing it was real
“Yeah,” Whitney said softly, her hand resting on her belly, eyes full of gentle happiness You’re really going to be a dad’
They headed straight back to Harris Manor
Due to that old superstition about not spreading the news in the first three months. Klein was itching to spill the secret bu had to hold it in
Sull, he couldn’t help himself, and told James right away.
“Great! Whit, you and Klein should move back to Harris Manor There are more statt here, and my family doctor’s right here if you need anything If you ever feel off, you can get checked out mmediately But of course, only if you’re comfortable because your comfort comes first James said
Whitney and Klem had actually wanted to move back before but James wanted them to enjoy the newlywed privacy so he’d politely declined then offer
But now, this was the perfect chance

Dad Klein and I both want to come back. It Il be great to spend more time with you. Just hope you won’t Whitney said.
James was grinning from ear to ear. “No way! How could I ever get tired of having you two here?”
Klein was already scribbling away, filling up pages with baby names
Honey, here are a few I came up with for a girl. Lena. Stella, Ivy, Chloe, Violet. What do you think?” Klein a
Whitney raised her eyebrows. “Are you that convinced it’s a girl?”
“What if it’s a boy? Wouldn’t all these names go to waste?”
Klein just shrugged. If it’s a boy, we’ll just think of some boy names then.”
He was clearly just brushing it off
James couldn’t stand it anymore and had to step in. ‘Don’t listen to his nonsense.”
“There’s no rush with the name Let’s wait until we know the due date, and then pick something that suits the ti
Whitney nodded, agreeing there was no need to hurry.
Soon Whitney and Klein moved back into Harris Manor.
Lena went into labor ahead of schedule.
Lena was sweating from the pain, her voice ürgent. “Dustin, wake up! I think the baby’s coming!”
Dustin had the hospital bag ready days ago. He handed it off to the nanny, and then carefully helped Lena into the nerves on edge.
“Go slow, keep it steady,” Dustin told the driver, not taking any risks.
It was three in the morning, and Dustin was on high alert, making sure everything went smoothly.
“Don’t worry, Baby, I’m right here,” Dustin said, trying his best to sound calm even though he was freaking out inside.
As Lena was wheeled into the delivery room, Dustin was completely lost, pacing back and forth and not sure what to d himself.
