Chapter 82
The doctor on the side said without looking up, "She's fine. You can leave after getting the medicine."
Blair was startled. He stared at Mable's belly. "She's fine? What about... the baby?"
His question confused the doctor, who looked up at him in confusion. "Baby? What baby?"
Mable quickly tugged at his sleeve. "Blair, I'm not pregnant!"
Blair was stunned. 'Not pregnant?
'Then the blood just now...?'
Mable flushed red from embarrassment. "It was because... my period came."
Blair was speechless.
Mable had bad cramps whenever she had her period. When it was serious, she would have to stay in bed for two days.
"You're having period cramps from not having enough nourishing food, so you have to pay more attention to it. Also, I checked when you said your stomach feels uncomfortable. You have chronic gastroenteritis, so avoid fishy, spicy, and stimulating food for now. Eat nothing raw too."
Blair finally realized that he misunderstood.
He draped his jacket over Mable and carried her.
"Okay. Thank you, doctor."
Blair carried Mable and left the hospital. They went back to the Royal View Villa.
Mable changed into her pajamas and was about to wash her blood-stained dress when Blair walked in with a basin of water.
"Who let you touch cold water? Put it down!" Seeing that she was preparing to wash something, Blair's face turned cold.
Mable said, "...I'm using warm water."
Blair pulled her to the sofa and made her sit. He then squatted down to take off her shoes. "I looked up some things on the internet. They say that soaking your feet in hot water can rebalance your body and reduce the discomfort of menstrual cramps."
"...Thanks."
The CEO lowered himself to bring the basin for her to soak her feet. She would be ungrateful to refuse him.
As such, Mable sat on the sofa, soaking her feet while Blair went to the bathroom.
Not long after, she heard the sound of clothes being scrubbed.
She turned to find Blair scrubbing the dress she had just soaked into soapy water.
Mable could not believe her eyes.
Not only did Blair bring water for her to soak her feet, but he also helped her to scrub her dress stained with period blood! While feeling shocked, Mable felt slightly sad.
It must be hard for Blair to be so nice to someone he did not love.
Blair returned to the bedroom after washing the dress. He sat next to Mable.
He stretched his arm and pulled her into his embrace, closing the distance of their bodies.
Then, he gently rubbed her belly with his warm hand through her thin pajamas.
It was very warm, easing the discomfort in her tummy.
Mable gradually relaxed her body.
Blair rested his chin on her shoulder and rubbed against it. "Mabes, you almost scared me to death just now."
Mable turned to smile at him. "I didn't think you were so timid."
"It's because it was you."
Blair's heart almost broke when Mable cried out in pain.
He stared into her eyes. "I was worried something might have happened to you. Seeing you bleed also made me worry that something happened to the baby. "Anyway, you're not pregnant..."
In the quiet bedroom, Mable heard him clearly.
She could tell from his tone that he was slightly disappointed.
It was because she was not pregnant.
"Blair, do you want kids?" She asked him.
"That depends on who I'm having them with."This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
Blair kissed her on the cheek with anticipation. "I'd want our kids, of course."
Mable said, "But..."
"Hm?"
She felt a tinge of sourness in her heart and hesitated before she said, "I don't want kids-I dislike them very much."
Blair was somewhat surprised. He paused before saying, "If you don't like them, then we won't have any."
Mable lowered her head, not wanting him to look at her.
Meanwhile.
The Goodman Residence.
Kyle went home after the gathering was over.
Even though he did not drink much tonight, he felt dizzy after returning home.
After taking a quick shower, he knocked out on his bed.
In the night, a silhouette sneaked in.
