Chapter 133

Mia shot a disbelieving look at him. “What prenatal test?”

She wondered if he had grown suspicious.

“Have you forgotten that you’re pregnant? Grandma scheduled a prenatal test for you. Just put up a

show for

her.”

It was only then that she managed to calm herself down. “No need for the hassle. I’ll tell her that I’ve

done it yesterday.”

“No can do. I’m sure she’ll ask for the prenatal test result and the ultrasound. So, you must take the

prenatal.

test here.”

Her breath hitched at that. “Your family owns this hospital. You can ask someone to forge one.”

Timothy suddenly approached her and grasped her shoulders, lowering his voice. “You see Martha

there?”

She raised her head and saw Martha. Mia seemed confused. “What’s wrong?”

“You didn’t return from school for a few days, and she told Grandma about it. Grandma must’ve thought

that something bad happened between us.

“That’s why she wants to meet you on the excuse of taking a prenatal test.”

She lowered her head. “So, it’s just a show? And I only have to follow the procedures?”

“Yes, what else?”

She finally nodded. “Okay.”

Martha wouldn’t be able to enter the examination room with Mia anyway.

Whatever the results were, Timothy would be the person relaying the message.

Mia followed the doctor downstairs to the examination room.

As she expected, it was just a show because a lady was already in the examination room. That lady

was pregnant, not Mia.

In the end, Mia could gain the result thanks to that woman.

Everything was in order under Timothy’s preparation.

An hour later, Mia left the examination room and headed upstairs to visit Laura.

Laura held Mia’s hand. “Look at you, Mia. You’re all skin and bones! You don’t have to push yourself at

work when you’re pregnant. You can ask your husband to do it instead!

“You’re carrying a baby in your belly. You don’t have to hold yourself back. It’s not that hard for men to

become fathers!”

“Okay, Grandma. I will.” Mia’s response made Laura smile.

Then, Mia advised, “You have to take your meals and listen to the doctor too.”

“I know. I’m still waiting to welcome that baby in your belly to the world! The idea of meeting my

husband that

soon weighs on my chest heavily.”

Mia noticed Laura’s lack of energy and decided not to take up more of her time.

When Mia and Timothy left the room, Mia inquired, “When’s the surgery?”

“End of the month.”

She nodded before lifting her gaze and looked at Timothy. “Congratulations on your engagement. But–

just a piece of advice–keep a low life, will you?

“Don’t let the word get out, or Grandma might catch wind of it.”

“I know that well enough for you to save that.”

“Right. You’re the best at keeping a secret. I’m off.” She spun around and left.

Staring at the ceiling while walking down the corridor, she fought back the tears in her eyes.

He didn’t move an inch from where he stood. The hands resting by his side balled into fists.

He gulped before saying, “Wait.”

Mia stopped in her tracks, her eyelashes fluttering like a butterfly. She masked her emotions and

looked back.” What’s the matter?”

Her heart picked up its pace as he stared silently.

What did Timothy want to say?

He pursed his lips.

Right when he was going to bring up the fake engagement with Maya, a poshly dressed middle–aged

woman exited the elevator.

The smile on Sharon’s face vanished the moment she saw Mia. “What are you doing here? I’m warning

you, don’t you dare spout nonsense in front of Mom!”

Mia gave an indifferent reply. “Don’t worry because I won’t. I wish for her surgery to be successful more

than anyone does.”
