Chapter 682

Edwin was stunned to hear this, and his sunken heart had floated back up.

He felt an odd sense of happiness.

"What abortion? Did you forget what I said? Bear it and give birth to the baby when the time comes!" Edwin felt

thoroughly entertained by the naive girl in front of him.

His baby was safe!

He looked at Joanne's belly and felt relieved that he could bring her home to see Grandma.

Edwin thus brought Joanne to the obstetrician for a regular check up, seeing as she never had it checked and had no

idea what the baby's condition was.

Joanne looked at her hand that was held and dragged by Edwin, she wanted to pull her hand out but had no energy

to do so.

If she truly was pregnant, and he was willing to marry her and give her and the baby a home, that would not be too

bad. Most importantly, she did not have to get an abortion.

She would never admit to him that she was just afraid of getting an abortion.

Before she came to the hospital, she had read numerous articles online about countless women who did not have

proper care after abortion and ended up with so many gynecological complications.

Her life had just begun, and those were the last thing she would ever want!

Joanne was deep in her thoughts and almost walked into the wall in front of her. Edwin had enough of this and

dragged her all the way to the doctor's office.

The head doctor was in charge of her and prepared tools to draw blood.

Joanne was afraid of needles and blood, so she shut her eyes closed and bit her lip upon seeing the tools.

Edwin's lips twitched ever so slightly. People who saw her in such a state would think that she was preparing for

war!

When the warm blood flowed into the syringe, the doctor replaced the needle with cotton. Edwin applied pressure

to it to stop the blood and took her to a couch to rest.

Her skin was snowy-white, contrasting the bright red of the blood on her arm.

Edwin thought back to that night and felt his throat constrict.

Edwin had ordered his men to buy some food as they waited for the lab's result. Joanne felt like she had been

revived as she chugged a whole carton of milk down without caring about her image.

Edwin could not bear the sight of it and looked away, feeling the hesitation rise to his throat.

If he was to bring Joanne home to see his family, would he be ridiculed and shamed?

How could he, Young Master Atherton, bring home a woman who was not only a celebrity but also a seemingly

simple-minded one at that?

The results were finally out.

The doctor had the file at hand, but his expression was odd.

"Doctor, is there something wrong with my baby?" Joanne felt her heart sink as she asked.

The doctor said nothing as he looked at Edwin.

Edwin had a sense that something was wrong and said, "Just spit it out."

"According to the reports, Miss winters' chorionic gonadotropin numbers were normal, which meant that she's not

pregnant," said the doctor as he handed the report to the couple.

Edwin looked at it and confirmed that her numbers were normal.

Joanne's face flushed crimson; she felt embarrassed and was in total disbelief. "How is that possible? My period was

late, and I've been feeling nauseous and throwing up. Most importantly, I got two lines on the pregnancy test! I can

show you if you don't believe me..."

"There are many reasons why your period could be late: not getting enough sleep, not having a balanced diet, et

cetera. Nausea can be related to your guts and stomach. As for the pregnancy test kit, it's either you used it

wrongly, or that the test kit you got was expired or faulty. A blood test is more accurate and shouldn't have any

errors. I've personally run it twice, and the results came back the same."

Joanne fell into complete silence.

Edwin felt his head throb as he asked in frustration, "where did you get the test kit?"

"Just...a neighborhood clinic, three for five bucks." Joanne wanted nothing more than to dig a hole and bury herself.
