Chapter 1560
“I’m pregnant?” Renee shook her head and said firmly,” That’s impossible.”
“Why not? Just do the test and we’ll see.” Leia thought about it for a while, then said cheerfully, “Well, I’ll go get the pregnancy test kit. Wait for me!” Immediately, she went to a nearby pharmacy to buy one. When she returned, she found Tess, the part-timer, making coffee. “What are you adding to it?” Leia glanced at it and asked Tess.
“Oh, nothing.” Feeling guilty, Tess upset the cup of coffee and said in a panic, “It’s sugar. Ms. Everheart hates bitter coffee, so she asked me to add some sugar to it.”
“Really?” Leia frowned, wondering when Renee’s taste had changed since she always had sugar-free coffee. However, she didn’t think about it much and just headed upstairs to give Renee the pregnancy test kit. At first, Renee was reluctant to take the test because she was certain that she wasn’t pregnant, but after Leia persuaded her, she braced herself and did the test.
After a while, Leia squealed excitedly. “Ren, you’re pregnant! I was right-there’s no way you’d suddenly become so lazy and lethargic. Turns out you’re pregnant!” Leia was happy for her friend, but also worried about her. “I didn’t get to take care of you when you were pregnant with Abby and Adie, so I’ll take good care of you now and try my best to be a good godmother.” Leia held Renee’s arm, dreaming about the kind
of life they would have as if she was the one who was pregnant. Finally, she said, “I don’t know if Stefan is serious or not this time. If he’s serious, we can give him a chance to fulfill his responsibilities as a father and make him realize how difficult it is to raise a kid. However, if he wrongs you again, I’ll hack him to death!”
“Lei, don’t be mean. I can’t believe it.
.. I’m pregnant!” Renee’s initial bewilderment and denial slowly turned into acceptance. When she was pregnant with Adie and Abby, she had to lie low like a fugitive, and naturally assumed that her children were unwanted, but it was different now. She was surrounded by people who loved her, especially the child’s father. He was with her, looking forward to the child’s arrival, and that kind of deep love made her look forward to it too.
“Okay, maybe that was too extreme. If he wrongs you again, I… I’ll give him laxatives!” Leia declared after a while.
“You’re such a kid.” Renee chuckled in amusement.
“Haha! Don’t worry though, I think he’s serious this time. He dotes on you all the time, completely at your mercy. I’m sure he won’t wrong you again.” At first, Leia didn’t trust Stefan, but after spending some time with him, she could tell how much he loved Renee.
In the end, Renee had gotten a happy ending with a new member of the family. It seemed like good things did come in pairs.
