Chapter 348
On the other side, by the Blackwell family’s graves, Joy was packing up. Sherri also squatted down to help.
Joy didn’t like this. “Sherri, you should use your hands for surgery. How can you do this? Hurry and get up. Hackett, you do
it.”
Hackett was speechless.
Sherri had a sweet mouth and didn’t feel embarrassed. At home, Joy did not let her do anything for fear of Sherri getting tired. Joy doted on her even more than her mother. “Mom, it’s not tiring to clean this up.” Sherri said. “I also want to perform well before Grandpa so he’ll like me too.”
Joy accepted this explanation. She couldn’t stop smiling. “Alright, Hackett will do it with you. Let Grandpa bless you with smooth sailing, security, and good health. I don’t need you to be the richest man. Just be safe and healthy. You don’t have to be so ambitious,”
Then Joy asked curiously. “By the way, why did Trevon come to pay respects to your grandfather?”
Hackett did not expose him. “He happened to be here, so he came over.”
Joy squatted in front of the tombstone and rambled on. “Look at Trevon. He’s so polite. He ran into us on Memorial Day and came to see your grandfather. He even lit a candle. What a good child.”
“Mom, you’re not very good at interpreting words, are you?” Hackett asked. “He just happened to be here. It wasn’t on purpose.
Hackett emphasized the words. He was afraid that his mother wouldn’t be able to understand what he meant.
Joy glared at her son. “Even if that’s the case, t’s polite of Trevon to come. Why don’t you do the same thing? Right, Nathan?” Nathan quickly replied. “Your mother is right. Stop being a smartmouth and let your actions speak louder.”
“Im not crazy enough to do that. Hackett thought inside. “Trevon is crazy, but I’m not.”
Sherri listened to all of this wordlessly.
In the afternoon. Natalie, Trevon, and Jasper went to the grave of Natalie’s mom and grandpa.
As soon as they stepped through the door of the Wilson’s residence, Rachel looked at the dirty Jasper and her heart ached. “Did Jasper help out at the cemetery?”
“He used his shirt as a rag.” Trevon explained.
Rachel didn’t understand, but she still carried the child to take a shower.
The next day. Natalie went to work. She rode her bike to work. Rachel only instructed her not to drive too fast because safety was first. She did not say anything else. Caleb could not help but praise his daughter-in-law for riding her bike to work. No wonder she could control that brat.
Although Rachel thought that her daughter-in-law’s bike was really cool, she didn’t show it on the outside.
The next day, they went to the Wilson family’s cemetery to pay their respect. All of the Wilson family’s ancestors were buried here. The entire cemetery was decorated extravagantly, especially Grandma’s grave, which had a crown design. When Trevon returned home, he told her that because Grandma was a princess or queen in Grandpa’s heart.
Only the Wilson family was in the entire cemetery. There were no outsiders. It was like a courtyard house with a gate, guards, bodyguards, and specially planted greenery. The cobblestones paved all the way from the gate to the cemetery. The luxurious and domineering cemetery might be the only one in Athana. Natalie was quite stunned.
After paying respects to the Wilson family. Natalie received a message from Ava as she returned home. [Natalie, I’m on leave for three days for Memorial Day, but I won’t be coming. We visited the grave yesterday. If I come today, I’ll have to go back tomorrow. I can only stay for one night. All my time would be wasted on the plane. I’ll wait for your wedding.]
Natalie replied. [Sure, I’ve also told Uncle Daniel. We’ll visit again after we get married.]
Ava’s reply said. [Alright, then come back with me to Sapphire City after you get married.]
[Sure, I have marriage leave.]
[Yay!]
Natalie replied with a smiling emoji.
April 18th was getting closer and closer. On April 16th, Natalie’s stomach hurt a little. She thought that her period was coming. It was supposed to come on April 12th, but she thought that she had been too busy recently and delayed her period.
She walked to the toilet and checked. There was still no sign of her period coming, which made her think of another result.
Trevon went to check out the wedding venue today. He said that he would only get married once in his life and would not allow any mistakes. From the design to the layout, to the supervisor, he had to do it himself and supervise it personally.
Natalie squatted on the toilet bowl and took out her phone to send Sherri a message. [Sherri, are you off work?]
Sherri replied very quickly. As it was noon, she was having lunch with Rose. [It’s time to get off work. Dear bride, how may I help you? You can apply for marriage leave two days in advance, but I can’t ask for leave more than four months in advance. My wedding is in July, understand? I have reason to suspect that you’re showing off your leave.]
Natalie held her phone to her forehead. [Aren’t you tired from typing so much? You have so much time on your hands.]
[It’s a hule boring now that you’re not here. You must miss me too.]
[No, I’m actually missing my period,] Natalie replied.
After sending this message, there was no inmediate reply. After a few minutes, Sherri sent a terrified emoji. [Girl, I seem to miss my period too. Do you think… No way, that’s impossible.]
Natalie sent a question mark and [You’re not going to tell me that you’re not on your period either, are you?]
[If I say yes, you won’t say that I’m copying you, right?]
Natalie’s legs were a little numb from squatting on the toilet bowl. She put on her pants with one hand and pressed the audio message button with the other. “I think we should buy a test first. Don’t make a mistake.”
Sherri was an obstetrician-gynecologist. Her menstrual period had always been very accurate. She wasn’t the only one who was accurate. Even Natalie was very accurate. If they didn’t take a test, there was a 30% chance that they weren’t pregnant. There was a 70% chance that they were.
When the door was opened, a man in a suit was standing at the door. He leaned sideways with his hands in his pockets and squinted at Natalie. His expression was a little uneasy, and his voice was a little broken. “What did you say to Sherri just now? Are you pregnant?”
There was so much surprise in Trevon’s tone that it overllowed. It was hard not to hear his joy.
However, the matter had not been confirmed yet. Natalie did not want to make a mistake and make him happy for nothing. “Well, I haven’t tested it yet. My period is just delayed”
However, if she counted the time, it might really be four weeks. The last time was the middle of the year when Trevon went to Sapphire City. Coupled with the fact that they hadn’t used protection, it was possible. It should be. However, it was more reassuring to test it.
Trevon could not calm down for a second. He said in a panic. “Then let’s go to the hospital now. Isn’t Sherri at work? Let her do it. Slow down. Why don’t I carry you down?”
Natalie was speechless. She was pregnant, not terminally ill.
In the end, Natalie did not even have the chance to suggest buying a pregnancy test. She was carried into the passenger seat by Trevon and the man even carefully fastened her seatbelt.
Natalie was once again at a loss. Why did Trevon have to overhear when she sent an audio message?
Sherri’s reply came. [Do you want me to buy it and send it over? But it might be later in the afternoon.]
Natalic massaged her temples. [‘You should just give me a blood test |
[You’re so direct. Alright, I’ll do mine with you. I didn’t expect my profession to serve the two of us. I might even be able to help Rose in the future. I’m too awesome.)
Natalie sent her a thumbs up emoji.
Trevon slowly started the car. Natalie realized that he was stepping on the accelerator very gently, especially when he stepped on the brakes. It was like he was afraid that he would damage the brakes.
The car arrived at Athana Hospital. It was the lunch break. The curtains of the laboratory department were pulled down. Trevon made a call and the technician rushed over. He was in a good mood today. Whether it was true or not, he would participate in everything about Natalie.
Trevon expressed his gratitude to the people from the laboratory department. Before coming. Sherri had already helped Natalie and himself start the necessary paperwork.
At this moment, the two of them were drawing blood from the window one after another. When the needle pierced into Natalie’s fair arm, Trevon, who was standing at the side and pressing his shoulder, frowned slightly. He watched as a transparent tube sucked in his wife’s blood.
After the blood was drawn, Trevon bent down to press the cotton stick down for her. He even blew on it. “How about I send you to the car to sit while I’ll wait here?”
“No need. The results aren’t out yet. Don’t be nervous. I think you’re really a little nervous. Actually, it’s fine if I’m pregnant. Besides, I’m not that delicate. There’s no need to be so careful.”
Natalie glanced at Trevon. His brows never relaxed, and his entire body was tense.
If she was really pregnant, she might not have depression during pregnancy, but Trevon might.
