Chapter 718
Julian’s Stand-In Wife
As for the results of the check-up, she decided to see Vans and look through them with him.
After she made up her mind, she didnât want to stay in the seaside town for a minute longer.
She kept the check-up results and packed her bags, then hopped on a bus headed for Richburgh.
She didnât take so much as a break throughout the four-hour long journey.
She just wanted to see Julian as soon as she could, and tell him the good news of her pregnancy.
There werenât many people at the bus stop, and Diana managed to secure tickets very quickly.
She moved very cautiously throughout the journey. Each time the bus jolted, she would cover her stomach in fright.
Even she found her own behavior silly.
After all, if something really were to happen to the fetus, covering her stomach couldnât do anything to change it.
She was familiar with the helplessness of losing a baby.
After rushing through the entire journey, she didnât dare to be too anxious in returning to the villa. She caressed her stomach as she looked for a bench outside the exit to take a break. Just then, she received a call from Vans. He asked,â Diana, where are you right now?â
âIâm at the bus stop,â Diana replied. âI just reached Richburgh.â
âThatâs great,â Vans said. âDonât move, Iâll have Nina go over to fetch you. Come to the hospital right now.â
âWhatâs the matter?â Diana felt uneasy upon hearing him so anxious.
This time round, she wouldnât be able to bear with the pain of losing her babies once more.
âEverythingâs fine, donât worry.â Vans heard her trembling voice over the phone. âI just want to do a blood test and see your progesterone level.â
She had just miscarried not long ago, and she was now carrying twins.
Whatâs more, her pregnancy symptoms were rather severe. While she didnât feel nauseous, she frequently experienced headaches and sometimes even felt suffocated and short of breath.
Thus, Vans thought it was better to be careful. âItâs tough carrying twins, and you havenât fully recovered as well. If your progesterone levels arenât ideal, thereâs a risk of threatened miscarriage.â
âMiscarriage?!â
Dianaâs heart leapt to her throat. âVans, will I not be able to keep my babies again this time?â
âNo,â Vans promised. âI donât mean that. Conversely, I dare guarantee that this time, you and the babies will both be safe. But you must listen to me.â
âYes, yes!â Diana heaved a sigh of relief as her hands subconsciously rubbed her stomach. âAs long as I can keep these two babies, Iâm willing to do anything.â
âI know.â Vans saw for himself what happened to Diana and Julian after she miscarried.
He knew that the miscarriage affected them deeply.
It was also a direct cause of their divorce.
So this time, be it for Diana or his good friend Julian, he would do his best to ensure that her pregnancy went smoothly.
âWhat you need to do right now is to hurry to the hospital.â
He would only be able to offer his most professional advice after she was done with all the necessary tests.
âOkay.â Diana knew that she couldnât afford to delay any further, but she couldnât help but ask, âlsâ¦the impact of a CT scan very significant?â
âDonât worry. Based on international medical data, the radiation from one CT scan isnât enough to affect the fetus. Domestic doctors are just more careful with pregnancies within the country,â Vans explained to her. âIâll send you some information, and then youâll understand.â
Diana heaved a sigh of relief. âTH send my location to Nina so she can come and fetch me.â
With that, she gave Julian a call.
âJulian, Iâm back!â She didnât say much, and continued curtly, âLetâs meet at Central Hospital. I have good news for you.â
Julian was stunned for a long while.
He was clearly shocked by Dianaâs attitude.
He didnât expect her to contact him before time was up, and definitely didnât expect her to sound so positive. She even said she had good news for him.
Butâ¦
