Chapter 624

Carlos defended himself for a bit while also giving Jonathan a way out.

Jonathan rubbed his temples and sighed. He had, in fact, been too busy the day before, so he didn’t have time to

check his email. He thought it wouldn’t matter whether he looked at the diagnosis report since he was going there

the next day for a detailed examination anyway. However, he never expected Rosalie to be pregnant with triplets.

Jonathan’s eyes widened in shock as he looked at Rosalie’s abdomen. He wondered, “Her abdomen looks so flat.

How could she be pregnant with three babies? We will have three kids instead of one?”

Meanwhile, Rosalie was equally shocked as she stared at her own abdomen. An overwhelming sense of disbelief

consumed her entire being.

She thought, “Triplets?”

Having just one child already felt like a precious gift from heaven to her.

However, at this time, it seemed that heaven was bestowing upon her not just one precious gift but three!

The sudden reality overwhelmed her, and tears welled up in her eyes uncontrollably.

“Why are you crying?” Jonathan frowned as he saw the tears in Rosalie’s eyes.

Tears streamed down her face as she replied, “I… I’m just so happy… I really have three children, right?” “We are

having three children,” said Jonathan as he corrected her, taking the tissue offered by Carlos and gently wiping

away the tears from Rosalie’s face. He continued, “All right, stop crying. Crying too much is not good for the

children.”

Jonathan’s tone was somewhat stiff and blunt as he spoke. He couldn’t help but feel lost whenever he saw Rosalie’s

tears. Even as he wiped away her tears, his hand movements seemed somewhat awkward and unnatural.

Upon hearing his words, Rosalie desperately tried to hold back her tears. At this moment, she was determined to be

the best mother she could be for the children growing inside her belly.

The doctor proceeded with various examinations for Rosalie, but his brows remained furrowed throughout.

However, during the B-scan, his expression grew even more solemn than before. “What’s wrong, doctor? Are the

babies doing okay?” Rosalie asked, her utmost concern now lying with the three children in her womb.

The three children seemed to have brought new hope to her otherwise bleak life.

“The babies’ conditions are fine, but your situation is not looking good. Your uterus has been injured, and carrying

three babies is putting too large a strain on your body. Therefore, I would suggest considering a fetal reduction,”

the doctor replied.

“A fetal reduction?” Rosalie’s pupils contracted abruptly.

Just then, the doctor had completed the B-scan. As he put away the ultrasound equipment, he explained, “Yes, a

fetal reduction. For ordinary pregnant women carrying triplets, we would also recommend a reduction, let alone

considering your current condition.”

Rosalie was well aware of what a fetal reduction meant. It meant ending the life of one of the little beings growing

inside her belly, halting his development, freezing him in time, and ultimately, letting him go. “However, you are

already 13 weeks pregnant and have missed the optimal window for fetal reduction. If we proceed with the fetal

reduction procedure now, the risks will be significantly higher,” the doctor explained.

“What kind of risks are we talking about?” Jonathan, who had remained silent all along, suddenly spoke

1.

“The worst-case scenario is that it could lead to a miscarriage for the mother. However, if the procedure is

performed by us, the chances of such an outcome are minimal,” answered the doctor.

“Will it pose a risk to the mother’s life?” Jonathan’s voice carried a rare hint of nervousness.

“The risk to the mother’s life is improbable. However, complications such as bleeding, intrauterine infection, organ

damage, and other injuries are possible during the fetal reduction procedure. Considering Mrs. Youngblood’s

current physical condition, if a miscarriage were to occur, the chances of future pregnancies may be greatly

reduced,” the doctor explained, outlining the various potential

scenarios.

Jonathan’s expression turned grave. Carrying triplets already meant a high-risk pregnancy, and at this time, he

realized that this was a dilemma with no easy choices.

However, for Jonathan, if it came down to making a choice, it wasn’t difficult at all. Above all else, he cared more

about Rosalie’s well-being than anything else, even more than the children.

From the very beginning, when he fell in love with her, he had known that Rosalie was going to have difficult

pregnancies, and it was highly likely that they would never have children together. Back then, Jonathan did not

mind. At this time, even though there was a hint of regret, he knew exactly what mattered most to him.

“Then let’s proceed with the fetal reduction,” Jonathan replied.

Rosalie quickly vetoed this and said, “No! I don’t want to proceed with the fetal reduction!”

Jonathan furrowed his brows, staring at Rosalie intensely. “Do you realize what it would mean if we don’t proceed

with the fetal reduction?”

“I’m aware.” She took a deep breath and continued, “However, since getting fetal reduction now would increase

the risks and potentially result in losing all three babies, why shouldn’t I at least try to keep all three of them?”

If Rosalie chose to proceed with the reduction, she would have a higher chance of ensuring her own safety, but the

children were going to be at grave risk. On the other hand, if she decided not to proceed with the reduction, both

she and the babies were going to be equally at risk.

Even though Rosalie was a lawyer who was expected to uphold calmness and rationality and understand what

would be the most advantageous decision, she found herself willing to gamble with her own life, hoping that both

she and the babies could be saved.

Perhaps it was because Rosalie yearned so deeply to become a mother and have a family.

If Rosalie ended up losing all the children due to the fetal reduction, she would undoubtedly live a lifetime of regret.

Inside the B-scan room of the hospital, Rosalie and Jonathan locked eyes, each holding steadfast to their own

convictions. The doctor standing by their side fell silent, fully aware of the weight of the decision they were about to

make.

After a prolonged silence, Jonathan turned to the doctor beside him and said, “Please provide me with a

comprehensive risk assessment report when you get back. I need to understand the precise extent of the risks

involved.”

“Okay, Mr. Youngblood,” the doctor answered immediately.

Meanwhile, in Calvin’s mansion, Alan glanced at Calvin who was sitting on the couch with a troubled expression.

Alan couldn’t help but tease Calvin, “You’ve been having a run of bad luck lately. Just as your hand injury was

beginning to heal, you ended up in a car accident. I heard you did that to rescue a woman. Is it Rosalie?”

Alan shared the gossip he had heard. Indeed, Rosalie was the first person who came to his mind when he heard

that a woman was rescued.

It seemed that apart from Fiona, the woman Calvin had been searching for since childhood, Rosalie was the only

person Calvin truly cared about.

However, after Calvin found Fiona, Calvin treated Fiona well, but it wasn’t the same kind of affection Calvin had for

Rosalie.

At best, Calvin provided Fiona with material possessions. However, even when Calvin attended social

events with Fiona, there was always a subtle sense of distance and indifference between them, which was

completely different from how things were between Calvin and Rosalie.

Indeed, only Rosalie could make Calvin go to such lengths and risk his life to rescue a person. Calvin rolled his eyes

at Alan and said, “You are well-informed.”
