152 Are You Jealous? (2/2)
The one who answered was not her anymore.
”Dad? You said you would take me home. ” Jian was so excited of his latest video game console.
He sprang up to his feet as he recalled his promise to let him play with it after his class today.
”Okay,son. I'll be there.”
”We're on our way,dad. Just wait for me. ”
Few minutes after,Jia pulled to a stop in front of his gate. Jian immediately got out and ran inside.She waved a hand to bid goodbye but she stopped. She must have seen him coming forward.
”Jia,thanks for worrying about me. ” He smiled as he bent to look at her inside.
Jia smiled back. ”Why were you awake all night?
Suddenly,Anthon thought of something. She became silent when he carelessly told her that he was not able to sleep.
”Are you jealous? ” He asked,teasing her.
She snorted but did not say a word.
”Don't worry. It's not something like what we did inside the tent. Brian was here with us,as well. ”
Her ears turned red. Without answering,she pressed the acceleration keyand swiftly disappeared.

Days passed by so quickly and Jiawas already heavy with pregnancy. It was already uncomfortable for her to travel with Jim in visiting every branch of Catherine Fields Medical Center. Mr. Wayne had almost recovered fully,so he travelled with Jim,instead.With a nurse to ensure his timely intake of his medicine and Hailey's Pill,he was already in good condition to get back on the business.
Hailey's Pen andPill were scheduled to be finally launched into the public during the delivery of Dr. Grace. The birth of the Ybañez family's first grandchild was equated to the perfect time of launching the research.
One proof of the potency of Hailey's Pillwas the fast recovery of Mr. Wayne. A stroke related to a rupture of blood vessels was not easy to treat.A full rehabilitation especially with the elderlies like Mr Wayne was almost impossible.
His daily progress was properly documented. With him as the testimony,being the owner of Catherine Field's Group of Hospitals,the research would be surely be a breakthrough.
It was decided thatCatherine Fields Medical Center would host the launching. With such length and bittersweet memories prior to its launching, Dr. Grace insisted that the credit should be given to the Waynes. Most especially that Jim and Jia were now taking overthe business. Jia was her husband's bestfriend after all.
Sitting behind the counter of Gee's Cafe,Jia suddenly felt something coming out inside her. When she checked on it,it was a blood. She was already having her bloody show. Unfortunately,Jim and his dad had not returned yet from overseas due to a problem they encountered in one of the branches. Kuya Nap was also out of town. Ate Nita was already staying with Dr. Grace as she was also expecting her delivery anytime.
She ignored it.Her contractions were still light and the intervals were far apart. However,in the next thirty minutes,her contraction interval rapidly progressed to every three to four minutes. It was already uncomfortable for her to drive.
She hurriedly pressed a name on the contact list...
”Ton,please bring me to the hospital right now.”
