I'm Sorry My Love Novel

Chapter 506

Before Leanna left for work, she told Aidan that he did not need to follow her since she would call him when

everything was wrapped up at work and if nothing happened.

Aidan walked her to the elevator, kissing her on the cheek when she let her guard down. "Do be careful on your

way there. Send a message when you arrive."

"Yes, yes. You can go back now."

Closing the door of the elevator, Leanna also waved to him.

After she left, Aidan turned around and knocked on his neighbor's door.

A short while passed before the door was opened.

Naomi asked, "Did Leanna leave?"

He nodded. "She went to work."

Walking to the crib, he saw the baby inside playing with a toy while making gurgling sounds.

Aidan looked at him for a while and suddenly asked, "Did he grow fatter?"

This little rascal has only been born for a while, yet he's much bigger now. I think his face has doubled in size.

Tidying up the room, she said, "Babies grow the fastest. It's just that this particular one was born premature and

has been sick for this period, so his growth was a bit slower. Now that he's cured, it's normal to be fatter. Look at

how soft and fair he is. His eyebrows look like Leanna's."

Frowning, he commented, "He's much uglier than she is."

This made Naomi retort, "Who talks about their own son like that? Although babies can't understand you, they are

quite petty and vengeful."

"I don't think he'll be as petty as Leanna."

Ignoring him, Naomi left the room.

Standing by the crib, he reached out and poked the baby's face.

Grunting, the little tyke seemed to be unhappy, as he waved his little hands around, wanting to chase Aidan away.

Indeed, he's quite petty.

A snort came from Aidan. "Hmph."

After a while, Naomi walked up to him. "The baby's condition is stabilized now. Are you still not planning on telling

Leanna?"

Aidan responded, "It's not that I don't want to."

Rather, he had been deceiving Leanna for so long that he did not know how to break it to her. He was also well

aware if she came to know the truth, she would be beyond livid.

If worse came to worst, she might not forgive him for the rest of her life.

…

After arriving at the office, Leanna saw that her employees were elated to see her come back, as they bombarded

her with questions.

Chatting for a while, Leanna took a look around and asked, "Where's Zoe?"

"Zoe said that she was feeling unwell this morning, so she's resting in your office right now."

"I'll go take a look."

"I'll go take a look."

Leanna opened the office door only to see Zoe curled up on the couch with a pale face, looking like she was in

great discomfort.

Walking over, Leanna asked, "What's wrong, Zoe?"

Zoe replied weakly, "I'm not sure either. I have been wanting to puke since a few days ago. I don't have any

appetite either, as the mere smell of fried foods would make me want to throw up."

At this, Leanna froze for a second.

Sitting down beside Zoe, she touched her forehead before touching her own. "You don't have a fever."

Zoe nodded slowly. "I think I might have caught the flu. I took medicine last night. I'll have some again later."

After a brief silence, Leanna asked, "When was your last menstrual period?"

Zoe thought about it, but she could not remember. "I think it was last month. The flu might have pushed back my

period for this month."

Tugging on her, Leanna stated, "Let's go to the hospital and have a diagnosis."

"There's no need for that. I normally become like this when I catch the flu. I'll be better in a few days."

"It might not be the flu." Although Leanna was just guessing this and could not be sure either. "Let the doctor have

a look. If you do have the flu, then you recover faster on the doctor's medication."

By this point, Zoe had had it with the nonstop suffering, and she had not been eating for two days, so she followed

Leanna.

As soon as they arrived at the hospital, Leanna had Zoe sit down and wait for her while she went to get Zoe

registered.

After the registration, Leanna came back to help Zoe up. "Let's go."

Yet, Zoe realized the entrance to the doctor's office read 'gynecologist', making her wide-eyed. "Did you bring me

to the wrong room?"

Leanna replied, "Just in case. Just go in and check."

Laughing dryly, Zoe said, "Isn't this going too far for a joke? I haven't even had sex…."

She stopped in the middle of the sentence. Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t! When I did it with Daniel last time, we didn't take any

safety precautions, but I did take the birth control pill after. I don't think I'm that 'lucky', right?

Leanna consoled her. "No matter what, I think you should check it out. If the result is negative, then it'll be a relief.

If it is…"

After a pause, she breathed in and said, "We'll see."

Zoe walked in, feeling as if she was not in control of her body, for she had no idea what the doctor asked her, even

though she answered all of them.

"I'll go taka a look."

Laanna opanad tha offica door only to saa Zoa curlad up on tha couch with a pala faca, looking lika sha was in

graat discomfort.

Walking ovar, Laanna askad, "What's wrong, Zoa?"

Zoa rapliad waakly, "I'm not sura aithar. I hava baan wanting to puka sinca a faw days ago. I don't hava any

appatita aithar, as tha mara small of friad foods would maka ma want to throw up."

At this, Laanna froza for a sacond.

Sitting down basida Zoa, sha touchad har forahaad bafora touching har own. "You don't hava a favar."

Zoa noddad slowly. "I think I might hava caught tha flu. I took madicina last night. I'll hava soma again latar."

Aftar a briaf silanca, Laanna askad, "Whan was your last manstrual pariod?"

Zoa thought about it, but sha could not ramambar. "I think it was last month. Tha flu might hava pushad back my

pariod for this month."

Tugging on har, Laanna statad, "Lat's go to tha hospital and hava a diagnosis."

"Thara's no naad for that. I normally bacoma lika this whan I catch tha flu. I'll ba battar in a faw days."

"It might not ba tha flu." Although Laanna was just guassing this and could not ba sura aithar. "Lat tha doctor hava

a look. If you do hava tha flu, than you racovar fastar on tha doctor's madication."

By this point, Zoa had had it with tha nonstop suffaring, and sha had not baan aating for two days, so sha followad

Laanna.

As soon as thay arrivad at tha hospital, Laanna had Zoa sit down and wait for har whila sha want to gat Zoa

ragistarad.

Aftar tha ragistration, Laanna cama back to halp Zoa up. "Lat's go."

Yat, Zoa raalizad tha antranca to tha doctor's offica raad 'gynacologist', making har wida-ayad. "Did you bring ma

to tha wrong room?"

Laanna rapliad, "Just in casa. Just go in and chack."

Laughing dryly, Zoa said, "Isn't this going too far for a joka? I havan't avan had sax…."

Sha stoppad in tha middla of tha santanca. Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t! Whan I did it with Danial last tima, wa didn't taka any

safaty pracautions, but I did taka tha birth control pill aftar. I don't think I'm that 'lucky', right?

Laanna consolad har. "No mattar what, I think you should chack it out. If tha rasult is nagativa, than it'll ba a raliaf.

If it is…"

Aftar a pausa, sha braathad in and said, "Wa'll saa."

Zoa walkad in, faaling as if sha was not in control of har body, for sha had no idaa what tha doctor askad har, avan

though sha answarad all of tham.

Leanna accompanied her throughout the whole checkup while Zoe's thoughts drifted away.

In the end, when the result came out, it showed that she had been pregnant for thirty days then, causing her to

nearly faint on the spot. Even lottery ticket buyers aren't that lucky! Besides, it was only that one time! I had taken a

birth control pill after too!

Returning to the doctor's office, Zoe almost stated without hesitation, "I don't want the child."

The doctor looked at her before checking the results. "Just think about it for now. It's best if the operation takes

place between the forty-fifth and sixtieth day of pregnancy. You can come half a month later."

Feeling as if her world was crumbling, Zoe asked, "Can't it be… now?"

This prompted the doctor to say, "If you do it at the opportune time, your womb won't go through any

complications or suffer from uterine perforations. Since you're still so young, you'll want to have offspring in the

future, so I would advise that the health of your body comes first."

"But—"

Leanna put her hand on Zoe's shoulder, stating gently, "Zoe, just listen to the doctor."

Hanging her head low, Zoe stopped talking.

Just as they exited the hospital, she felt as if she was going to puke again.

Leanna bought water for her and asked, "Will you tell this to Daniel?"

"I think I won't." Zoe's face had somehow become even paler. "It was an accident, after all. We did it under mutual

consent. Who would've thought anything would come of it? Besides, he's not one to settle down. So what if I told

him about my pregnancy? Will I force him to marry me? He might think that I planned everything."

Leanna comforted her. "Just be more open-minded. After all, not everybody is like Aidan."

Zoe stayed silent. Sigh.

On the way back to the office, Leanna suggested, "I think I'll just send you back home. Rest up for now."

In no mood whatsoever to work, Zoe nodded before looking out the car window.

After sending Zoe back home, Leanna went to the supermarket to buy supplements for pregnant women, fruits,

and vegetables. Passing by the pharmacy, she hesitated for a while, yet she still bought a bottle of folic acid in the

end.

She returned to Zoe's home and put everything in the fridge. "I think I'll be quite busy in this period, so I don't think

I'll be able to come to visit you often. If you've finished eating all the food, just tell me. Don't order delivery food

either. I'll tell Alice to come later to cook dinner for you."

Leanna accompanied her throughout the whole checkup while Zoe's thoughts drifted away.
