Chapter 622


    “Please stop joking around, Mister Jeremy. Why do I need to go for a check-up when I’m not sick?”


    Corinne mustered all her strength to pull her hand away from his grip but failed to do so. She was on


    the brink of exhaustion.


    ‘Where’s that Edmund? Why isn’t he back here yet?’ she thought.


    “Just what are you afraid of, Corinne?”


    Jeremy stood up and pulled her to him. He looked straight into her eyes condescendingly as though he


    was trying to read her mind.


    Feeling guilty, Corinne subconsciously shifted her gaze away from his.


    “You’re reading too much into this, Mister Jeremy. I’m just worried that I might bump into someone!


    know. Imagine what my husband would think then? Me; A married woman, going to see an OB-GYN


    specialist with someone else other than my husband! Why, that would ruin both of our reputations!”


    Jeremy scoffed. “Why should we worry about what our husbands or others think of us when we have


    done nothing wrong? Let’s go, Miss Corinne.”


    “Let go of me! I’m not going!” Corinne dragged her feet across the floor and put up a fierce struggle.


    However, her resistance only served to fuel Jeremy’s suspicion. He was almost a hundred percent sure


    that his guess was right.


    Unable to drag Corinne, he simply scooped her up and strode confidently toward the OB-GYN


    department with her in his arms. There was no room for Corinne to fight back or escape throughout the


    whole journey. and just like that, she was carried to the OB-GYN department for a blood test.


    ‘Sh*t! He’s too smart for me to fool! What should I do now? Would he ask me to get rid of the child once


    he found out I’m pregnant? But this pregnancy was an ident though I can see why, given our non-


    existent rtionship, he would ask me to get rid of the baby.


    However, in the two months she was pregnant, she caught feelings for the baby. She saw the baby as


    hers alone and not hers and Jeremy’s. She wanted to give birth to the baby so that she would have a


    family of her own but now it seemed like there was a chance she might lose the baby.


    She wanted to run away from the OB-GYN specialist’s room but Jeremy was keeping a close watch


    over her as if he knew what she was nning to do. He was also sitting in a way that would prevent her


    from .running anywhere.

    The seconds ticked by and each of them felt like years to Corinne. After a while, the result of the blood


    test came out. The OB-GYN specialist looked at the result and smiled happily. “Congrattions, Miss


    Carew. You’re going to be a mom!”


    Corinne inhaled sharply when she heard that.


    Jeremy narrowed his eyes and looked at her with great interest. “Miss Corinne, how do you exin


    this?”


    Corinne looked down at her hands in guilt. “I-”


    ‘Why is he asking that when he already knows what’s going on? What else does he want me to say?


    That I’m going to have a virgin birth?’


    At that moment, the OB-GYN specialist looked at the energetic couple with the blood test result in her


    hand and said, “The two of you should refrain from having Intercourse at the moment since the


    pregnancy is only twenty days into the first trimester. It’s best to wait until the pregnancy has stabilized


    before having any intercourse.”


    Jeremy was stunned and the fire in his eyes immediately went out. He snapped his head around and


    asked the OB-GYN specialist, “I’m sorry but how long did you say she has been pregnant?”


    The way he was staring at her caused a chill to run up her spine. “Twe- twenty days. The baby isn’t


    stabilized yet so it’s better to wait until then.”


    Jeremy instantly lost hisposure. He grabbed the blood test result to confirm what the OB-GYN


    specialist said was true.


    There, staring back at him were indeed the words – 20 days into the 1st trimester.
