Chapter 255

Nash did not want to engage further, “Nina’s already taken care of delivering the items for you. If you need anything else, just give us a call.”
The implication was clear which was not to come over unless absolutely necessary. Nash’s dismissiveness was palpable. It seemed Sally would have to step up her efforts with Miranda! Sally did not want to argue with Nash there, “I am the lady of the York family, your father’s wife.”
But Nash could not be bothered to continue the conversation, walking away without another word.
Nina carried the health supplements to the hospital to see Miranda. When Miranda heard the door open, she thought it was Nash.
So, when she saw Nina, the joy that appeared on her face instantly froze. “Why is it you?”
Nina calmly responded, “My mother-in-law wasn’t feeling well, so I came to deliver this as a favor.”
Saying this, Nina walked to Miranda’s bedside and placed the health supplements on the nightstand. Nina left the room as soon as she put down the items.
Miranda called after her, “Nina, since you’re already here, won’t you sit for a while before leaving?”
Nina did not even turn her head, “Miranda, we are not that close.”
She was only there because she did not want to see Sally and Nash argue. Since she was already at the hospital, she decided to register for a check-up.
In the morning, there were not too many people. Three people were in line before her. When it was her turn, the doctor asked about her condition and issued a referral for an ultrasound.
She needed to hold her urine. She drank two bottles of mineral water and walked back and forth for five minutes before lying on the examination table.
The coupling gel spread on her belly felt cold. Nina looked at the ceiling, her heart in her throat. She did not understand why she was so nervous.
The ultrasound doctor conducting the examination noticed her silence and asked, “Is this your first pregnancy?”
“Um…yea” Nina’s voice was somewhat hoarse.
The ultrasound doctor did not speak for about a minute, then said, “There’s a fetal heartbeat, you’re over a month pregnant.” Nina had not expected that the tiny life inside her already had a heartbeat. It would take three months to show a pregnancy.
Nash had seven days to sort things out before taking her to Frangelia. Fortunately, it was not yet obvious to the naked eye.
Nina took the ultrasound report and went to see the doctor. The doctor looked at the report and asked her directly, “What are you thinking? Do you want to keep the baby or have an abortion?” Nina touched her abdomen, “I want to keep it.”
Even though it would be hard. This was her and Nash’s first child. Whether a boy or a girl, she would love them.
The doctor said, “Then I’ll prescribe you some folic acid and calcium tablets. Make sure to take them on schedule.” “Okay.” Nina nodded.
Soon, she paid and picked up her medicine. Just as she reached the main entrance, she bumped into Scott. “Nina, what a coincidence.” Scott greeted her as soon as he saw her.
Nina smiled.
Scott noticed the bag in her hand. He could not help but ask, “What’s wrong?”
Nina instinctively put the medicine into her bag, “Just a little stomach upset.”
Scott became slightly serious, “Stomach issues should be taken seriously, don’t be careless.”
Nina nodded. However, she also noticed Scott, “So, you’re at the hospital because…”
Scott smiled, “My aunt is ill, I came to see her.”
Nina realized, “I see, I won’t keep you from visiting the patient then, I’ll get going.”
Scott nodded, watching as Nina left.
After leaving the hospital, Nina bought two different types of calcium tablets at a pharmacy nearby. She emptied all the calcium tablets and filled the bottles with the prescribed folic acid and calcium tablets from the hospital. Then she tore up the ultrasound report and threw it in the trash.
But she had only walked a few steps when a soft call came from behind: “Nina?”
