Chapter 911 I’ll Do All I Can So You Can Leave

Charlene was feeling a little smug, though. She was the one in the passenger seat! That meant something about her status in Brendan’s heart.

Being the city’s elite family, they were allowed to skip the queue and go straight to the check-ups. As Deirdre lay on the examination bed, Charlene suddenly asked, “Do we know the sex of the baby yet, doctor?”

The doctor was personally against answering questions like sex and gender before the baby was born, but his client was the Brighthalls. He would not dare to defy them. “It’s a girl. You’ll be seeing a sweet little princess soon,” she answered as skillfully as she could.

She curled the corner of her lips and feigned shock. “A girl? That can’t be right. Are you sure?” “As sure as ever be.”

Charlene gave an implicative “Oh!” while Madame Brighthall seethed. What was the point of a question like that?

“I happen to like a granddaughter rather than a grandson. These old bones can’t deal with little boys and their antics,” Madame Brighthall comforted as she held Deirdre’s hand. ‘Thank you, Dee. Us Brighthalls could not ask for a better new member.”

Deirdre nodded. Brendan suddenly rose. “I’m going out for a smoke.”

Just like that, he left. He did not even stay until the check-up was over.
