Chapter 19 Yvette Is Pregnant?
I looked up at Madam Young, not understanding what she wanted me to do. She stood up with Mr. Zac
hary’s assistance, watched a fish swim around in the pavilion’s pond for a moment, and then said, “Tom
orrow morning, have Mr. Zachary take you to the hospital.”
“Hospital? What for?” I was puzzled and looked at her as I spoke.
She had a calm and gentle expression as she said softly, “You’ll know when you get there. Alright now,
you’ve been standing for so long. You must be tired. Go back and rest.”
Madam Young had Mr. Zachary escort me out of the old house. As we were leaving, I saw Idris‘ car
parked outside. He was getting out of the car and opening the passenger door for someone.
Seeing Moore get out of the car made my heart sink. What was Idris doing, bringing her to the old man
or? Was it because of her pregnancy?
Both of them noticed me as they were about to enter the house. Idris frowned slightly
and then walked over to me. He stood in front of me and asked, “Why are you here?”
I shifted my gaze away from Moore and looked at him sarcastically. “Despite being the daughter–
in- law of the Youngs, am I not entitled to visit the family home?”
Sensing the displeasure in my voice, Idris frowned slightly. His voice was low and restrained as he said
, “Grandma asked me to bring her here.”
I said nothing and looked at Moore, who was full of arrogance. She looked at me with
threats in her eyes, as if she was the real daughter–in–law of the Youngs.
“Iddy, let’s go in. We shouldn’t keep Grandma waiting,” she said, no longer bothering to maintain a dista
nce from Idris like she used to in front of me. She moved closer to him and coaxed him to forget
about me.
He did not respond to her. He just looked at me and said, “Go back to Clearwater Residence and wait
for me.”
I did not respond. I gave them both an indifferent look and calmly left the old manor.
In the car, Mr. Zachary was driving while I stared out of the window. He glanced at me several times, se
eming like he wanted to say something but was hesitating.
I turned my attention back to him and said, “Mr. Zachary, if you have something to say, just say it.”
Caught off guard, Mr. Zachary flashed me an awkward smile before turning serious, “Mrs. Young,
I heard Ms. Moore is pregnant with Mr. Idris‘ child. Madam Young probably invited her to the old house t
o inquire about this matter. You…”
my
“I know,” I interrupted, looking at his concerned face. “Mr. Zachary, thank you for telling me.”
He nodded and sighed. “You should be careful. Your sister is no simple woman.”
I was
not stupid. Mr. Zachary would not bring this up for no reason. Only Moore could be responsible for the
events from five years ago being suddenly brought to light. She must have taken this information to Ma
dam Young, sure that the Youngs would no longer accept me. Moreover, she was pregnant. Once I
was out of the picture, she could naturally be with Idris.
Idris had asked me to wait for him at Clearwater Residence, but he
never came back. That night, he did not return, and there was no word from him.
I did not call to ask. I just sat by the bed all night. All outcomes were already decided, so why struggle u
nnecessarily? It was better to accept it gracefully.
The next day.
Mr. Zachary came early, following Madam Young’s orders to take me to the hospital for a check–up.
At the hospital, I was led by a middle–
aged woman into the gynecology department. I had an ultrasound and some blood tests, and she aske
d me some questions about my menstrual cycle.
After leaving the examination room, I was a bit
confused. Had Madam Young not already instructed me to divorce Idris? Why did she have Mr. Zachar
y bring me to these tests?
Half an hour later, the middle–aged female doctor came over with some reports. “The results are
out.”
Mr. Zachary took the reports and nodded at her, and she left.
I looked at Mr. Zachary, still puzzled, “Mr. Zachary, these tests…” novelbin
He did not answer. He simply looked at me and said, “Mrs. Young, we need to go see Madam Young
now.”
He did not say anything else, so naturally, I could not
probe further. I could only follow him downstairs, still puzzled.
In the
hospital lobby, upon seeing Idris and Moore walking toward me, I almost blurted out, “What a ridiculousl
y small world!”
It seemed like we were bound to run into each other anywhere and everywhere.
Seeing Mr. Zachary and I, Idris also appeared slightly surprised but quickly approached and asked, ” Ar
e you sick?”
He looked at Mr. Zachary as he asked, clearly aware that I did not want to talk to him.
Mr. Zachary hesitated for a moment, looked at Moore who had followed, and then said to Idris, “I acco
mpanied Mrs. Young here for a physical examination.”
Saying this, he handed the report to Idris. Idris took it, glanced at me, and then looked down at the repo
rt. Moments later,
his expression changed to one of surprise and disbelief. I could not help but glance at the report a few
more times.
Before I could see what was on it, Idris looked at me, his eyebrows tightly furrowed. “When did you
find out?”
I was confused as I did not know what was on the report. After hesitating
for a few seconds, I took the report from his hand and looked at it. My eyes landed on the ultrasound re
sult, and my mind turned to static, freezing me in place.
[Intrauterine pregnancy: 8+ weeks.]
Pregnancy? 8 weeks?!
Had I been pregnant? For over two months?
