Chapter 5 Doubt


    The thought of pregnancy terrified me. But as soon as the thought came up, I subjectively denied it.


    When I was pregnant before and had a miscarriage, the doctor clearly stated that it would be difficult


    for me to get pregnant again. Because of this, I did not take any protective measures when something


    happened between me and Gavin.


    Although I had irregr periods two months ago, I never paid attention to it because the doctor said it


    was the result of my miscarriage. But now the physical state is too much like pregnancy. I need to be


    even more careful.


    If I was really pregnant, it went without saying whose child it was. Roger had not touched me since my


    miscarriage. The only man I''d ever had sex with was Gavin. Just the thought of having a baby by Gavin


    made me cringe.


    This thought upied my mind all night long. I was sleepless whole night and when I woke up in the


    morning I had big eyebags. Before work, I put on makeup to cover my dark circles in case anyone


    might ask about it. Whether it was out of concern or just questioning, I could not deal with that right


    now.


    During my work, I was still troubled by the thought of being pregnant. I didn''t rest wellst night either,


    so I received a lot of stares. In order to clear up my suspicion, I rushed into the pharmacy and bought


    pregnancy strips.


    Back at home, my hands shook as I looked at how to interpret the results of the test. Afterwards, I went


    to the bathroom to try it out, only to find out something I could hardly believe. I looked at the two bars


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    showed positive. The first thing I thought was that maybe the test sheet had been affected by the


    moisture, so the result could be wrong. Well, disregarding the other test sheets, I went downstairs and


    went to the pharmacy nearby and bought a box of pregnancy test sticks.


    When I went to pay for the pregnancy test sticks, I was a little embarrassed. I came out in a hurry and


    took nothing with me but my keys. I did not have any money on me. As I was about to tell the cashier I


    would buy itter, someone came up to me, tapped me on the shoulder and said, "What a coincidence!


    We meet again."


    I immediately turned my head. It turned out to be the Gavin! Only then did I remember that this guy also


    lived nearby. But does not he live in a high-end residential area? What''s he doing here?


    "Yeah. What a coincidence!" I said with a stiff smile.


    "What''s wrong with you? Are you buying meds? Are you not feeling well?"


    "Ah? No... no, I''m here to buy vitamins... Why don''t you pay first? I''ll see around."


    The cashier looked at us with a puzzled look. Secretly, in my heart, I thanked her for not exposing my


    lies. But Gavin insisted. He said, "No, pay together. I want to see what kind of vitamins you buy. If it''s


    good, I''ll buy some too."


    The cashier looked at me. I did not know what to say, so I just turned my head away. Gavin took the


    bag, opened it, and said to himself, "Last night my ''home service'' stood me up, and I was so mad that I


    had a stomachache all night. I have not recovered all day. It seems my body needs more nourishment."


    Suddenly I had an idea. I grabbed the bag and said, "Mr. Stone! Your stomachache is not a mild illness.


    Taking medicine will not solve it. You need to get some rest. Why don''t I write you some diet recipes?


    You can take them to take care of yourself slowly."


    Gavinughed and said, "I don''t think you have that kind of skill. But I still need to take the stomach


    medicine. It works fast, and can save me a lot of trouble."


    He reached out and grabbed the stic bag, and we stood still. I kept smiling embarrassedly at him,


    and he slowly realized something was wrong and said, "Darcey, you didn''t buy some shameful health


    care products, like contraceptives or condoms?"
