Capture Her Heart After Marriage

“No,” Nathaniel smiled again. “The nurse only got some of the data wrong. That is all.”

“Really?” Alexia frowned, an odd feeling creeping up.

“Of course. If there was a problem, how could I, as a doctor, not tell you?”

With that, Alexia finally stopped asking questions and was able to relax. She was relieved to hear there wasn’t a problem.

“Sister, now it’s time to check your heart,” Nathaniel said, naturally changing the subject.

Alexia followed him towards the CT room.

Walking for a while, Nathaniel casually asked, “By the way, sister, you mentioned that your mother preferred boys over girls, right?”

Alexia nodded. “Yes, why do you ask?”

“Nothing.” Nathaniel turned back, looking back at Alexia’s piercing and profound eyes. “Just curious.”

Alexia pursed her lips. “They just think only sons can pass on the lineage…”

“Although this has been the case since ancient times, there are always some exceptions…” Nathaniel responded, hinting at a secret meaning.

“What do you mean?” Alexia asked, cocking her head in confusion.

“Nothing.” Nathaniel smiled as he took out a magnetic card. “Here’s the CT room. Please, come in.”

“Okay.”

Alexia sat on the chair in the hall as she gratefully took the cup of water Nathaniel offered.

“Thanks.”
