Chapter 52
Stop It, She’s Remarrying! By Stellar Strands Chapter 52
“You’ve been mistreating me lately, so that’s your fault.”
Conrad frowned and stopped as he looked down at her.
That was how she was supposed to act in the past three years, but something felt different.
Fia thought about a lot of things when she was sitting by the flowerbed. She couldn’t continue the fight with him and continue to
escalate their fights. It would only benefit Esme.
No matter how lowly she would become, it wouldn’t be better. She had to consider things for the child in her womb now, too.
She had to tell him about her pregnancy, so that he would accept the child’s existence.
Once they were back in the bedroom, Fia pulled him into the shower and helped him shave, just like she did in the past.
When he saw how gentle and obedient she was, he could feel the flames of desire slowly burning inside of him. He had been
abstaining for two weeks now.
He placed his hands by her waist and growled with a heavy hint. “Fia. We’re not divorced yet.”
Fia didn’t anger him as she did in the past. She put her hand on his and said with a frown, “I’m not feeling well.”
“What happened?”
“I’ve been feeling very uncomfortable here, in my belly. It’s affected me emotionally. That’s why I started fighting with you so
much lately.”
Conrad instantly became a thoughtful husband. He pulled her into his arms and sighed.
“I’m sorry. It’s my fault.”
“Honey...” She paused and looked at the two people holding each other in the mirror. “My menstruation hasn’t come for two
weeks now.”
Conrad placed his hands on her belly and gave her a light massage. “You’re frail, so you need to look after yourself more. I’ll take
you to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow.”
“Alright,” Fia said, with a glint of light in her eyes.
While he wanted it that night, he simply held her in his sleep because he was worried about her illness. He didn’t have her that
night.
The next day, he drove her to the hospital after breakfast. He registered her for the Gynecology Department.
When it was her turn, he took her into the doctor’s office.
When the doctor saw Fia’s name on the computer screen, he looked at the two of them and asked, “How can I help you?”
Conrad then said dutifully, “My wife is not feeling well, especially around her belly, and her menstruation
is late for half a month now.”
The doctor then asked the usual questions as per the procedure. He asked about the last menstruation and wrote a note to get a
routine blood test, ultrasonic scan, and urine test done.
“Get the tests done for now. First, get the blood test done, and then the ultrasonic scan before you
urinate. Do the urine test last. Once you have the results, bring them to me.”
“Alright. Thank you, doctor,” Fia said. She was nervous. She wondered what expression Conrad would have on his face once the
results were out. After the battery of tests was done, the two of them waited near the self–service machine where they could get
the test results. Conrad looked at Fia, who was playing with her fingers nervously.
“Don’t worry. It should be something minor.”
“Yeah.” Fia lowered her gaze. She wasn’t nervous. She was feeling guilty.
“Fia... I would like you to consider the lawsuit carefully. Our lawyers are the best of the best. I don’t want
us to...”
Fia frowned and cut him off. “Grandma doesn’t want to sell the project. I’m of the same opinion.”
“Let’s just worry about your health for now.” Conrad was feeling somewhat irritated.
The lawyers at Maxwell Corporation had never lost.
He didn’t want the both of them to end up in court.
Half an hour later, the results were finally out when Fia refreshed her phone’s browser, which was linked to her patient
registration card number.
She glanced at the man next to her and quietly took in a deep breath. She tried her best to calm herself down and said, “Let’s
see if we can print the results now.”
“Sure,” Conrad said, and took her patient registration card to the self–service machine. He inserted the card, and it began
printing the results.
As they were waiting, the blood test results were out first.
He took a glimpse, and there were one up and one down symbols.
The second one was the results of the urine test. The machine had only printed it halfway through when his phone rang.
“Hello?”
“Conrad! Come to my house now! The man that my grandmother wants me to marry is here! I don’t want to see him! Quick, you
have to come here and help me!”
