Chapter 463: Chapter 463 An Encounter

Eudora felt refreshed as soon as she opened her eyes the next morning.

She moved her body and realized that the dizziness from the night before was no longer there. It was just one night, but she was already feeling much peppier.

With joy in her heart, she got up in a hurry, trying to tell Amos everything.

However, she couldn’t find him in bed. When she was about to get up, she saw Amos coming into the room with Doctor Leon.

Doctor Leon gave Eudora a quick checkup and said, “She looks much better now. Everything is getting better, it’s just that her body temperature is still a little high. But I think that there should be no big problem. I’ll stay here for the next two days and observe her. It might be because a pregnant woman’s body temperature is generally a little higher…”

Doctor Leon was a very experienced doctor, and with Helen’s judgment, Amos felt as though a great weight had lifted off his heart.

“Dad, I thought that you still have a medical seminar to attend, right? How could you stay here then?”

Doctor Leon frowned and replied, “Well, I’ll get my assistant to deal with it…”

Eudora had always felt that it was not good for Amos to call so many people over in the middle of the night. When she heard this, she piped up immediately, “Doctor Leon, why don’t you attend your seminar? I’m feeling fine right now. You could just get Helen to stay here instead.”

Helen nodded. “That’s right, Dad. I can handle it!”

Doctor Leon saw that they seemed to have no problem with the idea, and since Eudora’s condition was much better, he didn’t object any further.

“Helen, you must pay attention to Mrs. Granger. You must take readings of her body temperature in the morning, afternoon, and night. If anything seems off, do let me know immediately.”

“Alright!” Helen nodded.

After they all went out, Eudora got up and took two steps.

“I said that I’m fine now. Can you rest assured?”

After saying that, as if to prove herself, she even hopped a little.

Amos pressed her down immediately and rebuked, “Don’t jump. Your baby bump is so big, yet you’re still so naughty!”

“I think that it’s possible that your child is naughtier!” she immediately retorted.

They looked at each other and smiled.

After breakfast, Eudora went to the hospital for her pregnancy checkup. Although she had an obstetrics doctor at home, Helen did not have any instruments here, thus she had to go to the hospital.

Amos had made it a point to always attend Eudora’s pregnancy checkups. Therefore, after having breakfast, he asked Clint to make the necessary arrangements.

Throughout the checkup, Amos was like a searchlight, trying his best to keep a close eye on each piece of data.

The doctor responsible for performing the ultrasound for Eudora was so intimidated that his hands were shaking slightly.

Eudora sighed and reached out to hold Amos’ hand. “Don’t be so nervous. You’re scaring the doctor!”

it was only then that Amos calmed down a little, allowing the doctor to resume his work peacefully.

After that and by the time the result came out, Eudora was still muttering to herself.

“You’re not allowed to follow me next time. I’m the one who is pregnant, but why are you more nervous than I am?”

Amos felt helpless and he argued, “Both of you are my whole world. How could I not be nervous?”

Eudora felt a surge of warmth in her heart, suddenly unable to say anything.

Leaning her head on Amos’ body, she asked with a smile, “Do you like this baby very much?”

Amos nodded. “Of course.”

She thought that he only liked it because it was his child!

However, before she could say that, she sat up again.

“Isn’t that Thea?” Eudora asked.

She got up in a hurry. Amos held her quickly so that she wouldn’t trip.

Thea came out of the inpatient department, dressed in a hospital gown and looking haggard.

Eudora knew that Thea was pregnant, so she was shocked to see her like this.

Thea had also noticed her and she made her way over to Eudora.

“Eudora, why are you here?” Thea asked.

“I have a pregnancy checkup. I should be the one asking you that question! Weren’t you still fine when I called you a few days ago? Why did you suddenly become like this? Are you okay? Is the baby alright?”

As soon as they met, Eudora asked her a series of questions non-stop, stunning Thea.

“I… I’m fine.”

“How is this fine? You look so pale. If you are not going to tell me, I’m going to ask the doctor myself!” Eudora said.

Thea answered, “I just fell down by accident. The baby is fine. How about you?”

“I’m fine! But you…” Eudora paused for a moment. She wanted to ask why there was no one to take care of her, but when she was about to say it, she remembered Thea’s identity.

The Stewart family would definitely not appear in such instances.

She refused to let Harley know about the pregnancy, so she had to be here alone.

“Do you want to eat something? I’ll get Cindy to cook some highly nutritious food for you,” Eudora offered.

“It’s okay…” Thea shook her head.

At this moment, Amos stood up and said, “Excuse me, I’ll go and take a look at the report.”

After Amos went out, he picked up his mobile phone and called Harley directly. Harley’s site was so noisy, and Amos couldn’t help but frown at the noise when the call went through.

“Where are you?” Amos asked.

“I’m at a bar! I wanted to call you too, but you had been accompanying your wife recently, so I wouldn’t want to disturb you!”

“Thea is in the hospital. Why didn’t you come and see her?” Amos asked.

Harley fell silent in an instant. After a long while, he let out a sneer.

“She already has a fiancé. Why should I visit her then?” He actually wanted to, but he didn’t have the right to!

“Who said that?” Amos asked.

“She said it herself! She said that she was getting married! She already has a baby with him!”

The corners of Amos’s mouth pulled up into a sneer. “Where did the playboy, who’s been pampered by countless girls, go? Doesn’t he know that women don’t mean what they say?”

Harley gritted his teeth. “Stop talking about the past, otherwise we’re no longer friends.”

After a pause, he drank another glass of beer irritably.

“Do you think that I don’t know that? I don’t want to believe it either! But she told me several times! I am a man, and I have my dignity too!” Harley retorted.

“What’s your occupation?” Amos asked all of a sudden, confusing Harley with the sudden change in topic.

“I… I’m a policeman!”

“If you’re still a policeman, then why are you taking what she says at face value? Can’t you investigate it? I’m telling you this now since you are my best friend: I know that even though you don’t say it, you still have feelings for Thea in your heart. This is the best opportunity you have – If you miss it again, I don’t think you’ll have any chances anymore!”

After that, Amos hung up.

Looking back at his warm-hearted little woman, he sighed.  She was still not feeling well, but she was still busy worrying about others.

If he didn’t find a way to find someone to take care of Thea, his little woman might worry for her so much that she wouldn’t be able to sleep at night.

When the report was released, Amos took a look at it. The results were normal, so he relaxed and made his way back to them.

Indeed, just as he’d expected, the little woman jumped up as soon as she saw him approaching, the words coming out of her mouth completely predictable.

“Amos, why don’t you head over to the office first? I want to stay here and keep Thea company.”
