Chapter 125 Nevaeh Was Pregnant

Sion frowned and subconsciously glanced at Aurora in the bed who has let her gaze and mind wander.

"Okay, I'll be there in a minute."

Aurora breathed a quiet sigh of relief at hearing this, and said before he opened his mouth, "Go and attend to your own affairs. I'm all right. Dad had Ariana to take care of him. She'll call you if something's wrong."

Sion bit back the words which sprang to his lips and ended up saying, "Sure, I'll be right back."

"Cool."

Seeing him left, she got up hurriedly and went to get her reports without washing, lest something else should happen again.

Sion reached Nevaeh's home. And as soon as he rang the bell, the door swung open from within. Nevaeh threw herself around him.

"Thank God, you're here. I'm scared!" she said in a muffled, choked voice with her arms clasped round his waist and face hidden in his chest.

His hands suspended in midair but still gave her a few pats on the back at last.

"What's wrong?"

"I...have something to tell you." With that she raised her head from his chest and sniffed. "Come in."

"Yeah."

His eyes moved slightly looking at his hand dragged by Nevaeh.

In her living room, Nevaeh served him a glass of water, though she was still not in a good mood.

"Have you eaten? I can make you something to eat."

"No, thanks. I've just had it. What happened to you? Is it your stomach again?"

Her low mood inevitably made him feel that there is something wrong with her stomach, for she had a history of cancer in the stomach, and it is not out of the question to have another lesion. "No, not that."

She sat down beside him, folding her hands uneasily. It took her a while to say something.

"Sion, I, um... I'm pregnant."

"What?!"

He was so shocked that he stood up with his dark eyes filled with disbelief in place of calm. His low voice trembled a little, "You're pregnant?" "Right."

Nevaeh looked up at him at a loss and hung her head aggrieved. "I just found out. I thought it was my stomach, so I went for a check-up."

Her eyes reddened as she spoke. She stood up and handed the prepared pregnancy test to him from a nearby cabinet.

"I didn't see that coming. Sion, I... what am I supposed to do now?"

Everything on the pregnancy test is clearly marked, and so are the results: Intrauterine Pregnancy, Single Live Fetus.

Seeing him in a trance, Nevaeh took him by the arm worriedly. Sion turned to look at her with his eyes unreadable, however the sheet was distorted by his pinch.

"Sion, are you unhappy?" She lowered her eyes and said with a low and hoarse voice, "If you don't want it, just tell me, I... I..." She burst into tears in the middle of her sentence and leaned toward his arms.

Sion was stunned with mixed feelings on his face, just standing there letting her lean on his shoulder. He reached out his hand hesitantly patting her back.

"No." He struggled to utter every word, as if they stuck in his throat and were killing him as he spoke them out. "No, I didn't say I don' want it. I just need some time to think. You're overthinking." "Really?"

"Yeah."

Sniffing, she looked up from his shoulder. "You're saying that I can have this baby, aren't you?" The anticipation in those eyes was about to overflow.

"Of course."

It's his child; he should be responsible for it. Besides, wasn't he going to be with her anyway? He agreed to marry her after the divorce was finalized, and now she's pregnant, which makes it all more logical. And again, why it was Aurora's face that popped into his head? How would she react when she knew it later?

"Great!" Nevaeh hugged him joyfully. There was an irresistible excitement in her voice. "I've always wondered what our children would be like, more like you or more like me... Now it's all coming true! It won't be long before the answer is revealed. I'm so glad, Sion!"

"Good." He waved away the unrealistic thought in his mind and hugged her gently. "I'm... glad too."

He had to stop thinking about Aurora. It's Nevaeh before him right now.

"I thought you wouldn't want the baby." Nevaeh relaxed her hold and wiped her tears. "I should've told you yesterday if I had known you wouldn't be upset about it."

"I wouldn't."

He took a tissue from the coffee table for her and put down the sheet. "Don't be silly. Early pregnancy is the most important period. You need to rest and relax."

"I will." She laughed heartily. "I'm sure I can take care of myself and the baby."

"Shall I get you a babysitter?" He worried that no one would look after her since she lived alone.

"No, don't bother." She shook her head. "I can totally care for myself. I'm not a child; I'm on holiday; and a doctor too. Remember?

Sion nodded. "All right, take good care of your health." He looked at the time. "My dad was still in the hospital. I've got to go. I'll come to see you whenever free.

"Yeah, certainly. His illness is the priority now."

"Well then." He took a glance at her, turned and walked out the door.

As soon as the door closed, the smile on Nevaeh's face disappeared at one. It seemed that all the sweetness in her were only an illusion. She leaned over to pick up the checklist on the table and looked at the perfect forgeries with a sneer on her lips. She said to herself, "Aurora, now that I'm the one who's pregnant, you are no match for me! You should know the good news too!"
