Chapter 35 - A Daddy for the Second Time Around (2/2)
Luna felt a shiver ran down her spine when she heard his cold words. While she wasn't planning on renouncing her part of the deal, this baby might change everything between them. She opened her mouth to say something when suddenly the door opened again, revealing her doctor.
The doctor smiled when she saw Hero talking to Luna and ȧssumed that he was the husband and Little Amber was their first child.
”Oh, so the daddy and the baby girl are here.” The doctor grinned before turning the pages of Luna's record to write scribble something on the paper.
Hero frowned, not understanding what the doctor meant. Did she mistake them as a small family? Didn't she see Luna's hand was missing a ring on her finger?
The doctor handed a prescription to Luna.
”You are good to go now, Miss Jiang, but make sure to schedule an appointment with your OB-Gyne so she could give you the prenatal supplements you needed. You're eight weeks along and should be able to request an ultrasound if you so choose to see the condition of your baby.”
Hero felt his brain short-circuit with what the doctor said to Luna. He was rendered speechless in his seat while Luna's cheeks were tinged with a slight blush as she gave thanks to her doctor.
'Congratulations on being a daddy for the second time around.” The doctor patted Hero's shoulder before leaving the room.
Hero stared at Luna with a blank expression on his face. Luna fidgeted and tried to fight the blush that was creeping to her face. Ah, she shouldn't be like this. Why was she blushing anyway?
They had slept together, and he deflowered her that night. They should have known the consequence of that night when neither of them used protection.
Hero broke the deafening silence between them. His face remained unreadable so Luna broke out in cold sweat. Needless to say, she turned into a bundle of nerves!
”You are pregnant,” Hero stated the obvious thing, but in Luna's ears, it sounded more like stating a fact than asking a question.
”Yes,” she breathed out.
