Chapter 777 Two Lines On The Stick (1/2)

”Oh, alright, I'll go see a doctor. But I want to go to the hospital where father is at so that I can pay him a visit as well,”

Carla told him. Now that she was back, she thought that she should pay Edmund a visit for Terence's sake even though she really didn't want to see him at all.

After all, he humbled himself and knelt down in front of her, last time.

If she kept on holding a grudge against him, it would make her seem petty.

”Okay. You go get changed first while I'll get everything ready,” Terence replied, nodding his head. Just in case something were to happen, he wanted the hospital to be informed in advance. That way, they would be able to get their department of gastroenterology, gynecology and obstetrics ready.

So that morning, Carla and Terence headed toward the hospital together.

”What do you say we drop by and say hi to Dad first before getting ourselves checked?”

Carla suggested the moment they arrived at the hospital. For some reason, she was suddenly feeling much better.

”No, he's gonna be just fine. Let's have a check-up first then we'll visit him when we're done.” Grabbing Carla's hand, the two of them headed upstairs. The doctors from different departments were already there awaiting their arrival.

As she glanced at Terence, Carla cleared her throat before reminding him, ”Terence, I don't want you to get your hopes up. I... I'm not very likely to get pregnant. I'm scared that you might end up disappointed.”

At that moment, she was worried that the higher his expectation was, the more disappointed he would be in the end.

She was thinking that it might have just been a simple gastroenteritis or something.

Hearing this, Terence couldn't help but laugh as he looked down at her. ”Carla, you don't have to worry about me. I can accept whatever the result is. All I want is to make sure that you're alright. That's really the only thing that matters to me. If anything else comes up, we'll just have to deal with it,”

Terence said, telling her exactly what was on his mind.

For as long as he could make sure that she was safe and sound and staying in his arms, there wasn't anything else he could ever ask for. An unexpected surprise was, by no means, more important than her well-being.

Without saying anything else, Carla simply nodded her head, feeling somewhat relieved. What scared her the most was the possibility of disappointing him after getting his hopes up.

”Mr. An and Mrs. An, this way, please.”

It was the doctor in charge of this floor himself who escorted them, waiting in front of the elevator.

”Mrs. An, please feel free to tell me every symptom that you have noticed so that I can give you a proper diagnosis. You don't need to feel embarrassed whatsoever,”

the doctor calmly told her.
