Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband Chapter 1798: Pregnant
Previously on Substitute Bride: Utterly Pampered by Her Billionaire Husband...
Ethan Barnes took Celeste Linden outside, curious to ask, “Celeste, what did you say to Crystal White? How come she suddenly decided not to bother me anymore?”
Celeste felt it was best not to tell him about this, “It’s better if you don’t pry into what we women talk about. As long as Crystal White isn’t bothering you, that’s all that matters.”
“But…”
“What do you mean but? Ethan, are you feeling a bit disappointed that Crystal isn’t pestering you anymore? You actually enjoy being surrounded by beautiful women, don’t you?” Celeste raised an eyebrow as she looked at him.
“…” Ethan wrapped an arm around her fragrant shoulder, “I can’t even handle just you. I think I’ll spend my whole life trying to figure you out alone.”
Smooth talker, Celeste quickly pushed him away.
Suddenly, she caught a strange smell, lifted her hand to her chest, and felt a bit nauseous and like she wanted to vomit.
“Celeste, what’s wrong?” Ethan asked, immediately concerned when he saw she wasn’t feeling well.
Celeste shook her head, “It’s nothing, just felt a bit queasy and like I wanted to throw up a moment ago.”
Ethan’s tall frame stiffened; could it be that she’s… pregnant?
Considering they hadn’t used any protection the last few times, he hadn’t thought of this then, and now he suddenly felt anxious.
He wanted to have another child with her, but getting pregnant now would be too soon. How should he explain this?
He knew her character too well. If she found out he was deceiving her and taking advantage of her while she slept, she definitely wouldn’t forgive him.
“Celeste, if you’re not feeling well, you should have a check-up. Since we’re already at the hospital, why not do a blood test?”
“I’m fine, just felt nauseous for a moment earlier.” Celeste thought he was making a fuss over nothing.
“No, we must get a check-up done.” Ethan took her small hand and led her into the doctor’s office.
Since this was a military hospital, with just a glance from Ethan, the doctor dared not say much and directly gave an order for Celeste to have a blood test.
After the blood was drawn, Ethan had her sit on the bench, “You wait here for a bit, I’ll go get the report when it’s ready.”
“Okay.”
At that moment, Celeste’s phone rang. It was the design department wanting to finalize the design drafts with her, so she got absorbed in her work.
After waiting for a while, Ethan got the report.
The report showed that Celeste was already pregnant.
The doctor confirmed it too, “Your wife is 42 days pregnant. All blood test indicators are normal, and currently, both mother and child seem very healthy. Now at the early stage of pregnancy, in the first trimester, it’s important to rest and nurture the pregnancy, and sexual activity should be avoided.”
The doctor outlined some precautions.
Ethan, overwhelmed with surprise and joy at becoming a father again, held onto the pregnancy report and nodded repeatedly at the doctor’s instructions, indicating he understood.
“Did you get the report?”
“Yes, I got it. Nothing major, it’s just some stomach discomfort and indigestion.”
Celeste already felt there was nothing wrong with her, so she stood up, “Since there’s nothing wrong, let’s hurry home. I need to confirm the design drafts at home.”
Celeste turned around and started to leave.
But suddenly Ethan reached out and hugged her, his strong arms encircling her soft waist, lifting her off the ground, and spinning her around several times in the air.
“What are you doing?”
Celeste was so frightened that she quickly grabbed onto the fabric on his shoulder.
