Chapter 109 Maybe She Can't Keep the Baby
Ceres was arranged for the exclusive ward for the Winsor family. The doctor prescribed medication and she was put on a drip. Johny had a serious expression on his face while Ceres seemed to be much more relaxed.
He poured a glass of water for Ceres and sat at her bed. "Are you hungry? The food is on the way."
Ceres ate nothing this morning because she was afraid that she would have physical exams on an empty stomach.
Ceres shook her head. "I'm not hungry."
Johny sat on the bed and embraced Ceres. "I'm sorry, Ceres."
That day, he thought that he would have to work and was going to be busy soon, so he had sex with her for times. He didn't expect that Ceres had got pregnant. If he had known this, he would have taken Ceres to the hospital that day.
"It's okay. You don't know then." Ceres did not want to blame Johny. She grabbed Johny's hand and placed it on her belly. "I can't believe that we have a baby." Johny smiled bitterly. He couldn't believe it either.
He knew that Ceres did not want to have a baby now. After all, she was still young. He did not want either, but it just came...
"Ceres, if this baby..."
"I'll accept everything as it comes." Ceres wasn't flustered at all. Perhaps she had prepared herself. She said, "Swedum."
"What? It is the Lantern Festival today. Do you want to eat sweet dumplings? I can ask someone to buy it for you." Johny held Ceres in his arms, his heart aching.
"No, I mean today is the Lantern Festival. Why don't we call our baby Swedum? What do you think?"
Seeing her big smile, Johny suddenly felt relieved. It seemed that Ceres was stronger and more optimistic than he had thought.
"Alright."
"Then let's pray that it will recover soon."
Mary also came to the hospital with Sally. Mary had only done a few pregnancy tests at home. The examination at the hospital would be more reliable.
After they got the report and her pregnancy was confirmed, Sally and Mary finally sighed with relief.
Sally took out some money and handed it to the doctor. "Doctor, thank you. Please pretend that you have never seen us."
The doctor said with a smile, "No, thanks. Mr. Henry has instructed me."
The doctor was arranged by Henry.
"Take it." Sally held Mary's hand and walked out of the doctor's office.
Both of them wore masks in case that they met acquaintances.
As they were chatting, a nurse walked by. The nurse was talking on the phone while walking in a hurry. Then she accidentally bumped into them.
"Hey, be careful. If you hurt my daughter, you can't get away!" Sally hurriedly protected Mary.
"Sorry, sorry, I didn't do it on purpose!" The nurse quickly squatted and picked up the reports that fell on the ground.
"Really? I don't think so!"
Mary looked down and saw "Ceres Taylor" on a report.
Mary picked it up. She was right!
"Mom, look..." Mary immediately showed it to Sally.
After picking up all the reports and finding that Mary was holding one, the nurse hurriedly and politely said, "Thank you."
Mary returned it to the nurse. Sally changed her attitude and said, "Be careful next time."
"I will. I am new here, so I was a little anxious. And this patient is very special, so... I am really sorry."
The nurse apologized.
"Ceres Taylor? I have a friend called this name. I don't know if it is her. She is from the Winsor family..." Mary said.
"Yes! It's her! Mr. Johny sent her here and she's now staying in the exclusive ward for the Winsor family."
"Then what's wrong with her?" Sally and Mary exchanged glances.
"She comes to keep her baby. She has symptoms of threatened abortion. Oh, I have to work now." The nurse left in a hurry.
Sally's face turned pale.
Ceres was pregnant too.
"She's pregnant! Things are getting complicated!" Sally sighed.
"Mom, what do you mean?" Mary was not worried.
"Silly girl. Ceres and you are pregnant. If she gives birth earlier than you, then it will be the eldest son's kid and the eldest grandson. If you give birth earlier, it's only the eldest grandson. They are different." Sally sighed again. "My plan is ruined."
"Maybe she can't keep the baby!" Mary rolled her eyes.
It seemed that Mary was not worried about this at all.
"What did you say?" Sally immediately became serious. "Mary, she is your sister and my daughter. You can't hurt her."
"Mom, what did the nurse say? Ceres is here to keep the baby. Threatened abortion! If she can't keep it, she can't blame anyone else, right?"
"That's true. If she can't keep it, that will be great. But you can't hurt her!"
Sally repeated before they went home.
It was the Lantern Festival. After Mary confirmed that she was pregnant, Henry took her to the Winsor's.
Mary was from a wealthy family and knew how to please people from the rich family. She impressed Zara soon after she arrived.
Jack was happy that she looked dignified and elegant.
"Come with your father next time to talk about the wedding." Jack finally said.
Henry, Mary, and Zara were overjoyed.
"I won't intervene in your wedding. Arrange it by yourself." Jack continued.
"Alright," said Zara.
Johny was supposed to come back on the Lantern Festival, but he did not even show up when it was time for supper.
Jack asked, "Where is Johny?"
The company was on holiday today, so Johny didn't need to work.
Zara served Jack a bowl of soup. "Johny seemed to be very busy during the Spring Festival. He didn't even stay on the eve. That's weird." "Really?" Jack did not know about this.
"That's not weird. He went to the Evian Town."
"Why?" Jack was more confused.
"Of course he was staying with Ceres!" Henry quickly replied.000
