Chapter 138: Going to the Hospital for a Full Medical Checkup
Frank Taylor had taught her a lesson when she was at a very young age.
In this world, karma, like a shadow, followed.
If you got something that wasn’t originally yours,
Like fame and fortune, you have to work harder than anyone else.
Otherwise, you would suffer backlash.
Yvonne had been feeling sick for some time and it was getting worse.
But due to her busy schedule and her own reluctance to accept this fact, she never went for a more comprehensive medical check-up.
In her previous life, she had almost reached the end of her life by this time. So did God actually have it all figured out?
And now that she’s done everything she wanted to do, she should go where she was supposed to be?
*
Transia Hospital.
Struggled for a few days, Yvonne still decided to go to the hospital alone for a checkup.
She didn’t want to upset Zachary, so she lied to him about it, telling him that she was just going to work at the hotel.
But in fact, she was prepared to face it all alone, for good or bad results.
If, indeed, her life was coming to the end, she would spend her last joyful moments alone with Zachary.
*
On the other hand, the Leinster Group.
The large and imposing office of the president.
Zachary sat at the table, pondering the news brought back by the man he had just sent to follow Yvonne. His handsome face was as gloomy as water.
He knew Yvonne well.
From the first day he met her, he had known the little girl very well.
After all, he was so many years older than her, and there were always some thoughts that Yvonne could not hide from him.
And this morning when she said she was going to the hotel, he sensed she was lying.
So, on second thought, he sent someone after her in secret.
Even though he knew that Yvonne would be angry, he was worried about her.
Even if she was angry, he couldn’t care less about that.
But he was a bit taken aback when the man told him she went to the hospital. <Why did she go to the hospital and hide it from him? Why she did not tell him to go with her?
Was there a secret about her?>
"Follow her and get me an identical copy of her physical exam report." On the phone, he commanded.
The other side agreed in an easy voice.
"Watch out. Don’t let her notice that you are following."
"Yes, Sir."
He then went on to follow Yvonne.
In the hospital, after registering, Yvonne took her health insurance card and her ID card as if nothing had happened.
The man who had followed her was cautious, but thought to himself that it was just a young girl of eighteen.
And the hospital was not that big, so it wouldn’t be so hard to finish the task.
Yet just around the corner of a stairwell, in the blink of an eye, the men noticed that Yvonne was suddenly gone!
She disappeared.....
The man opened his mouth wide, as if he couldn’t believe what had just happened. He’s a professional, and how could he lose someone on such a simple task?
On the other side, Yvonne, who had already changed his outfit cloaked in a black jacket with a black duck-tongue hat, stashed herself behind a door frame. Her red lips smiling coldly.
It was quite different from how she had looked a moment ago.
She’d been kidnapped as a child and had learned a few anti-tracking tricks since then.
Ordinary anti-tracking was not a problem for her.
She can basically get rid of two or three of them like this.
The hospital was small, but there were so many people. And it only took a little bit of trickery.
After being reborn she was even more sensitive than normal - sensitive to the danger all around her.
Just now, as she was registering for the procedure, she saw a very suspicious person through the glass window who seemed to be constantly glancing towards her.
However, that person was just following her and didn’t seem to have any accomplices, so Yvonne could make sure that he was just someone sent by Zachary.
So too, she just shrugged him off instead of just calling security or the police.
In short, that person could find her nowhere now.
After making sure it was safe, Yvonne idly stepped out, then took the registration slip and headed towards the right room.
...
Medical Examination Section.
She was the only one in the room.
Once the door was closed, the world was much quieter, leaving only the doctor and Yvonne.
The doctor took her health insurance card and looked at some of her most basic conditions.
"Yvonne Taylor, 18 years old. What’s wrong?"
Yvonne told them about her recent situation.
"Dizzy and nauseous?"
The doctor was puzzled, "Are you sure you’re not pregnant?"
"Pregnant?"
Yvonne froze for a moment.
"I don’t think so..., I haven’t... for a month..."
It was more than a month indeed.
Both of them had been busy time with work.
"What about your period?"
"Well..." said Yvonne, after thinking it over, "It wasn’t on time, but it was never on time."
The doctor wrote a list.
"Here’s the deal, you can’t rule out the possibility of you being pregnant, I’ll give you a full workup, including a pregnancy test as well, just go through each of the items on there one by one and then just wait for the results to come back and we will see."
"Okay."
Yvonne was a little apprehensive.
Then he went out with the doctor’s order.
The duck-tongue hat and mask hid her trepidation.
<Pregnant?
While that’s also possible, yet unlikely.
First of all, she and Zachary did take measures too. And secondly, she didn’t have intercourse with him for the past month.
How could she be pregnant?>
With that thought in mind, she still did all the checkup.
It was late afternoon after all the tests were done.
The report results were ready to be picked up, but she suddenly felt apprehensive and suddenly didn’t want to go get the report.
Even if she didn’t have a few days left to live, she should be enjoying her last moments with Mr. Leinster, instead of standing here in distress!
Thinking of this, Yvonne gritted her teeth and left the hospital directly, without even glancing at the report. And she directly threw the report into the trash bin!
*
After Yvonne left, a man dressed in black came out of the corner.
The person Zachary sent did lose Yvonne at first.
But after he realized he’d lost the girl, he went floor by floor to check.
Eventually, even though Yvonne had changed her attire, he recognized her at a glance by her demeanor and gait.
After Yvonne left, the man found the voucher out of the trash can.
Then he typed up all the lab reports from the machine.
...
Lord Villa.
It was seven o’clock in the evening when Yvonne got home.
Usually, Zachary would have arrived home from work by this time.
Yvonne arrived after him. When he started to worry about her, she returned carrying two bags from the supermarket shopping.
Two big bags were full with all kinds of milk, and fruits, ingredients, vegetables, meat and eggs, etc.
Zachary was a little surprised, and once he saw her carrying so many things, the first thing he did was to walk up and take the heavy things from her hands.
"Just tell the maid what you want to buy. You don’t have to do this?"
Yvonne shook her head, "I just want to cook for you by myself."
She went to the physical today, but she chickened out again.
She came back without seeing the report.
<If it’s a real sickness, and now that mom and dad were on track.
The only thing I regret is that I was not able to treat Zachary better and better.
So, I’m going to love him very, very hard on the days I have.
Just like what he did to her in a previous life...>
Zachary looked at her like this and wanted to say something, but eventually he sighed.
"Do you know that you can’t do all this hard work anymore?"
...
Yvonne didn’t figure out what he really mean, and she asked.
"Why?"
Zachary looked at her, a little helpless in his deep black eyes.
Oh stupid wife.... Why so stupid?
They wouldn’t have known the truth until now if the man hadn’t dug up the voucher she’d thrown in the trash and read the report card.
"You really didn’t feel anything at all?"
"What?"
Yvonne was stunned.
<Zachary wouldn’t know that something was wrong with my body, would he? No, I must never show any difference.> "Haven’t you been feeling sick lately?"
Yvonne purses her lips and didn’t say anything, "..."
"... I’m just fine, I guess I’ve been too tired to manage the hotel lately." Zachary took out those hospital reports directly.
"Why didn’t you even bring back the list when you went to the hospital today?" Yvonne was silent.
"... You know all about it?"
"Yes, I did send someone to follow you, but I didn’t know you were going to the hospital today.
"I knew you were hiding something when your eyes darted downward subconsciously when you spoke to me this morning."
Yvonne wasn’t angry, after all, Zachary was also worried about her.
Or maybe she was used to it. This man was just so overbearing and authoritarian and liked to be in charge of her.
But that didn’t mean no respect for her, let alone any malice.
He was already a bit older than her, so it was natural for him to like to control her. "I’m worried that... it’s something bad and we would be unhappy to see it." Yvonne said with some aggravation.
Zachary pinched her nose.
"How can it be a bad disease."
Especially when he knew that she was afraid of him worrying about her and sneaked off to the hospital alone without him. And she was afraid to face the bad outcome alone. He couldn’t help but sigh that she was so stupid and foolish that it hurt his heart.
"Silly Yvonne, you’re just pregnant."
"What?"
Yvonne was dumbfounded all of a sudden.
Pregnant?
She couldn’t help but put her hand on her belly.
She thought she had heard it wrong.
"You’re pregnant."
Zachary repeated.
"Really?"
"Is there a fake pregnancy?"
Zachary didn’t know what to say.
"Report card. Take a look yourself."
Yvonne looked at the pregnancy result, and her entire mind went blank for a moment.
<So.
Inside her body.
Now there’s a little thing?>
Yvonne touched her belly, which was still flat and did not look like it was bulging at all.
But ever since she learned the fact that she was pregnant, it was vaguely as if she could feel life there!
She was still a bit in disbelief, "Zachary Leinster... I’m really pregnant?
"Our child?"
It was easy to tell that Zachary had been full of joy since she had come home.
But the man’s face instantly darkened upon hearing her words.
"Whose else the child would be?"
Yvonne, "Ahem... no!
"No, I didn’t mean that!"
She was instantly happy, and all the shadows that had been hanging over her heart all these days had vanished!
She’s pregnant!
All that hard nausea and poor appetite, all because of pregnancy!
She couldn’t help but jump into Zachary’s arms at once, and then actually couldn’t help but cry out.
"What do I do... I’m pregnant... oooooooh."
That’s a surprising reaction... was this tears of joy?
Zachary wrapped his arms around her, but he didn’t know whether the little girl was happy or not.
"Yvonne doesn’t want to be pregnant, huh?"
"I don’t know... but what do I do now. I’m pregnant woooooooooooooooooo."
"So what if we’re pregnant. We’re married."
"But, but... I still feel like a kid myself."
