Not only Francesca but even Caleb noticed that Serenity had been absent-minded at work these few days as if she had a lot on her mind.
When they met in the pantry, Caleb asked, “Do you have something on your mind?”
Serenity shook her head, though he could tell how pale her face was as she carried her cup of water back to her desk, dazed.
It had already been seven or eight days, but her period had yet to come. The last time she was at South Bay, Gabriel didn’t use a condom because he never brought a woman home. Serenity did not take any precautions either, even forgetting to take the morning-after pill.
Now that she thought about it, they did it when it was not during her ‘safe’ time.
Caleb passed her desk when he left the pantry and noticed the odd expression on Serenity’s face. Something didn’t feel right so Caleb leaned over and whispered, “If you don’t feel well, go to the hospital.”
After work, she bought a pregnancy test kit from the pharmacy. The moment she arrived home, she went into her bathroom. When she came out, her entire face was as white as a piece of paper. The pregnancy test kit in her hand displayed two red bars.
She turned on her computer and looked up the credibility of pregnancy tests on the Internet. There were many suggestions to go to the hospital for a checkup, which was more reliable than pregnancy tests.
Just as she was carefully checking everyone’s statements, there was a knock on her door. She flinched so hard that her wireless mouse fell to the ground. Mrs. Walter’s voice came from the other side of the door. “Miss Serenity, it’s time for dinner.”
Serenity hurriedly wrapped the pregnancy test kit in a few layers of tissue before throwing it into the trash can. Then, she bent down to pick up the mouse as she said, “1’11 come down after changing.”
When she heard Mrs. Walter’s footsteps fade, she let out a long sigh of relief. Her pounding heart gradually calmed down as she took out a set of home clothes from the wardrobe and changed into them. Then, she went downstairs to the living room.
Benjamin had not returned yet, so only she and Helena Turner were eating. Helena noticed Serenity looking a little troubled and asked, “Serene, are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?”
Serenity forced a smile and said, “No, it’s just work.”
“Don’t think about work when you get home. Pay more attention to your health,” said Helena gently.
Serenity nodded and decided to put away her worries for now. But she still found herself poking at the rice in her bowl, only eating two mouthfuls before returning to her room.
After work the next day, Serenity went to the hospital alone to go through a series of checkups. Soon, she stepped out of the gynecology department, hands trembling as she looked at the test results.
Many people were waiting in the department. Many of them were men accompanying their wives for a pregnancy checkup, all happy except for her who looked defeated.
She didn’t know what unforgivable thing she had done to deserve such a big joke.
If Gabriel were to find out, what would he think? He must think she had ulterior motives…
When the two were in their previous relationship, Gabriel had always been careful. Even if he wasn’t, Serenity would play her part and take the pill right after.
At that time, she did not have any romantic feelings for him, so she did not think of giving birth to his child.
She did not deny that she had developed some feelings for Gabriel now, but she had never thought of using her child to tie a man down. A relationship founded on that was too lowly.
Moreover, for a man like Gabriel, so what if she was pregnant with his child? If he didn’t want it, it would be equivalent to giving the child a death sentence.
At the corner of the corridor, a woman with exquisite makeup looked at Serenity’s back as the latter left. The woman then turned back to look at the sign of the department: Obstetrics and Gynecology. Her gorgeous red lips curled into a cold smile..
