Chapter 1059
Seeing the doctor arrive, Lysander swiftly stood up and cleared the space beside Thssa''s bed for
the doctor to check on Thssa. However, his face betrayed his irritation as he spoke with a clipped
tone, "Took you long enough."
The doctor, feeling the chill emanating from Lysander''s formidable presence, was sweating buckets. He
nervously stuttered his response, "Mr. Sinir, I assure you, I will be here in seconds next time."
Thssa, sensing the frosty danger surrounding Lysander that made the doctor almost cower, took a
deep breath and said, "The doctor got here as fast as he could. Your attitude isn''t exactly helping
anyone rx, you know."
Lysander shot Thssa a fleeting nce but held back any retort. He simply said to the doctor, "She''s
got a pain in her belly. Please check it out and make it quick."
Hearing the urgency in Lysander''s voice, Thssa felt a bitter twist at the corner of her mouth. There it
was, the truth she had anticipated – his concern was for the child she carried, not for her.
So, Thssa, don''t kid yourself into thinking he cares for you, and squash any foolish hopes right now.
The doctor, now aware of the abdominal pain, also grew anxious. He pulled out his stethoscope and
ced it against her belly to listen intently.
Seeing the doctor''s serious demeanor, Thssa held her breath and stayed silent so as not to disturb
his concentration.
Lysander remained quiet too. His aura was stillmanding and deep.
After a few moments, the doctor asked Thssa, "Did the paine on suddenly, or was there a
cause?"
"I choked on some water and coughed a few times. It pulled at my stomach so it hurts." Thssa
replied earnestly to the doctor''s inquiry.
The doctor nodded understandingly and advised, "Coughing can indeed shake the stomach, and since
you''re still recovering from a potential miscarriage, it''s expected to feel ufortable. Try to rest as
much as possible and minimize coughing."
"And the baby? How''s the baby doing?" Thssa''s eyes, clear and anxious, were fixed on the doctor.
The thought that a few coughs might jeopardize the life she was nurturing was unbearable.
Thssa adored children. Otherwise, she wouldn''t have chosen to keep the four children from an
unexpected pregnancy, despite not knowing the father''s identity and having to give up her studies.
Over the years, she had the children around her. Their endearing and cute antics had healed her,
making her affection for them boundless.
"From what I can tell, everything seems stable. Just rest and eat some nd, easily digestible food to
keep up your strength." the doctor instructed.
Thssa visibly rxed hearing that the baby was safe. Her swollen, dry lips slightly moved as she
whispered, "Thank you, doctor."
"You''re wee. Please take care and rest up." the doctor said with a smile and left the room after
giving Lysander a respectful nod.
Lysander returned to Thssa''s bedside. He gaze at her intently. He had seen her concern for the
unborn child, her genuine affection, and her wholehearted protection.
Her maternal love seemed to absolve her of any past mistakes.
Sitting down, Lysander took her hand in his, the dry, rough texture of his palm meeting hers. Thssa''s
heart skipped a beat at his touch. Her hand instinctively flinched, intended to withdraw but held back by
reason.
She was still connected to an IV drip, and any sudden movement might dislodge the needle, causing
unnecessary stress that could harm the baby.
Although Thssa didn''t move, Lysander felt her slight tremor the moment he held her hand. He gently

squeezed her hand andforted her with his deep, resonant voice, "You''re pregnant. Why didn''t you
tell me earlier?"
"Would you have stopped treating me so harshly if I had?" Thssa asked, her voice tinged with hurt
and anger.
At her words, she felt Lysander''s grip on her hand tighten ever so slightly.
