Cecilia called the nanny.
The nanny, filled with anxiety, feared Cecilia’s disappointment.
Cecilia reassured her, “Don’t worry. You don’t have to follow Mr. Evans’ orders anymore. You can return to work now.”
Thirty minutes later, two household servants arrived to handle the chores.
Cecilia got Edwin ready for the morning.
He noticed that his breakfast tasted different and asked, “Dad was here last night, wasn’t he?”
“Yes,”
“He also made us breakfast.”
Cecilia gently patted Edwin’s head.
She couldn’t bring herself to eat Mark’s breakfast. Just a bite would stir up painful emotions.
Her love for Mark, spanning many years, wouldn’t wane easily.
Cecilia settled for some instant noodles.
Her work was scheduled for ten in the morning. She had enough time to drop Edwin at school before heading to the gym.
After a few mouthfuls, she felt sick.
A familiar and unsettling sensation hit her.
Cecilia’s face grew pale.
Concerned, a servant approached and asked, “Miss Fowler, are you alright?”
Edwin looked anxious.
Cecilia held her chest and forced a smile.
“Maybe these instant noodles have gone bad. I need to use the bathroom.”
She hurriedly left.
The servant checked the instant noodles’ production date, muttering, “Strange. They aren’t expired.”
In the master bedroom’s bathroom, Cecilia retched but couldn’t vomit anything. A heavy weight pressed on her chest.
She splashed cold water on her face but couldn’t find relief.
The events from the other day replayed in her mind. She had told Mark about wanting a daughter.
They had sex without protection.
Cecilia placed her hand on her belly and gazed at her reflection in the mirror.
Water dripped from her face.
Her eyes mirrored her confusion.
She might be pregnant.
Edwin’s footsteps neared.
The little boy embraced her from behind and whispered, “Mommy, did you drink too much last night? Do you have a headache?”
Tears welled up in Cecilia’s eyes.
Though her thoughts were a mess, she turned to hug Edwin gently.
“I’m fine, sweetheart. Just a little discomfort.”
“Mom, you should rest more,” Edwin advised, wrapping his arms around her.
Cecilia mustered a smile, enduring her stomach’s discomfort.
She placed Edwin’s bag on his shoulder and drove him to school.
Edwin happily trotted off to school.
Cecilia returned to her car, lost in thought.
She had drunk wine last night. Could it affect her potential pregnancy?
Should she even keep this baby?
The more she pondered, the more unease filled her. Finally, she decided to visit the hospital for a check-up.
She went there discreetly for she didn’t want to disturb anyone.
An hour later, her test report came back positive.
She had been pregnant for almost five weeks, and the doctor assured her the fetus was healthy.
However, Cecilia couldn’t find happiness in this news.
She left the examination room slowly. The corridor was filled with couples, joy painted on their faces as they awaited their prenatal check-ups.
She felt like the only person who didn’t know where to go.
Despite her fragility, she couldn’t bring herself to call Mark, as she was determined to end their relationship.
If he knew she was pregnant, he wouldn’t let her go.
Cecilia bit her lips slightly and was about to leave the hospital.
As she reached the elevator, her phone rang.
It was a call from Mark.
She hesitated, then answered.
“What do you want?”
On the other end, Mark remained silent for a long time. Just when she thought of hanging up, he said softly, “I heard from the servant that you weren’t feeling well. Did you go to the hospital?”
Cecilia wanted to cry.
She lowered her head and gently covered her belly.
