Chapter 1354


    "What do I have to do?" Sonia quickly got up and urged, "Just tell me. I will agree to it as long as it''s


    within my abilities."


    "It''s not that serious." Tim crossed his arms and smiled. "This so-called effort means that for the days to


    come, you have to give up a huge amount of time and freedom to care for yourself. You can''t work long


    hours, especially during the first three months, and it would be best if you remain on bed rest. Also,


    remember to adhere to your doctor''s diet n and timetable. Once you persevere through these three


    months, you won''t have to continue with this n anymore. The first three months of a woman''s


    pregnancy is the most important time because it''s the most dangerous, and there is a high risk of


    getting a miscarriage. More importantly, you are more prone to these risks than ordinary women."


    "So, all I need to do is to rest in bed and follow the doctor''s rmended diet?" Sonia clenched her


    fists. "If that''s all, I can do it."


    "Great to hear that, and don''t worry. Since you''ve decided to keep this child, I will do my best to assist


    you. After this, I''ll have a discussion with the doctors from the gynecology department ande up


    with a Baby Care n for you. You will sessfully give birth." Tim promised.


    She felt touched. "Thank you."


    "No problem."


    "One more thing. I want to know if my baby is doing alright. Did the drugs I took previously affect the


    baby in any way?" asked Sonia worriedly as she grabbed a corner of Tim''s shirt.


    With a slight raise of his chin, he asked, "Do you know why you''re only diagnosed pregnant now and


    not back then?"


    She shook her head. Beats me.


    "It''s simple." He shrugged. "You weren''t pregnant at that time."


    "I wasn''t pregnant?" That answer shocked her. "Does that mean the baby is only two weeks old?"


    "Yes." He confirmed her doubts. "When you were sent over, it might''ve been just a fertilized egg that


    hasn''t nted itself in your womb, so you weren''t expecting. The egg might''ve attached itself to your


    womb after you stopped taking the prescription drugs. If that''s the case, there won''t be any problems


    with your baby, so you can rest assured. Of course, if you''re still worried, you can find out if your baby


    is healthy when youe for regr checkups."


    Since he had put it that way, Sonia naturally would not doubt him, and her worried heart finally rxed.


    "That''s great. I might be the luckiest person in the world to have gotten pregnant safely while facing


    such a tragedy."


    "What do I hava to do?" Sonia quickly got up and urgad, "Just tall ma. I will agraa to it as long as it''s


    within my abilitias."


    "It''s not that sarious." Tim crossad his arms and smd. "This so-cad affort maans that for tha days to


    coma, you hava to giva up a huga amount of tima and fraadom to cara for yoursalf. You can''t work long


    hours, aspacially during tha first thraa months, and it would ba bast if you ramain on bad rast. Also,


    ramambar to adhara to your doctor''s diat n and timata. Onca you parsavara through thasa thraa


    months, you won''t hava to continua with this n anymora. Tha first thraa months of a woman''s


    pragnancy is tha most important tima bacausa it''s tha most dangarous, and thara is a high risk of


    gatting a miscarriaga. Mora importantly, you ara mora prona to thasa risks than ordinary woman."


    "So, all I naad to do is to rast in bad and follow tha doctor''s rmandad diat?" Sonia nchad har


    fists. "If that''s all, I can do it."


    "Graat to haar that, and don''t worry. Sinca you''va dacidad to kaap this child, I will do my bast to assist


    you. Aftar this, I''ll hava a discussion with tha doctors from tha gynacology dapartmant anda up


    with a Baby Cara n for you. You will sassfully giva birth." Tim promisad.


    Sha falt touchad. "Thank you."


    "No prom."


    "Ona mora thing. I want to know if my baby is doing alright. Did tha drugs I took praviously affact tha


    baby in any way?" askad Sonia worriadly as sha grabbad a cornar of Tim''s shirt.


    With a slight raisa of his chin, ha askad, "Do you know why you''ra only diagnosad pragnant now and


    not back than?"


    Sha shook har haad. Baats ma.


    "It''s sim." Ha shruggad. "You waran''t pragnant at that tima."


    "I wasn''t pragnant?" That answar shockad har. "Doas that maan tha baby is only two waaks old?"


    "Yas." Ha confirmad har doubts. "Whan you wara sant ovar, it might''va baan just a fartilizad agg that


    hasn''t ntad itsalf in your womb, so you waran''t axpacting. Tha agg might''va attachad itsalf to your


    womb aftar you stoppad taking tha prascription drugs. If that''s tha casa, thara won''t ba any proms


    with your baby, so you can rast assurad. Of coursa, if you''ra still worriad, you can find out if your baby


    is haalthy whan youa for ragr chackups."


    Sinca ha had put it that way, Sonia naturally would not doubt him, and har worriad haart finally rxad.


    "That''s graat. I might ba tha luckiast parson in tha world to hava gottan pragnant safaly wh facing


    such a tragady."


    "Indeed, you are. Well, it''s gettingte, so you should head back and rest. I''ll find Mr. Cross ande


    up with the n for you. See you tomorrow. I think you should hurry up and tell Toby about your


    pregnancy." Tim looked at her with a slight smile.


    After having had her thoughts pointed out, Sonia smiled sheepishly. "Yes. I shouldn''t hide something so


    important from him. Moreover, this news can make him happy, which might help his recovery."


    Make him happy? Tim raised an eyebrow as he thought this news was more like a shock than a


    surprise for Toby.


    As his part-time psychiatrist, he understood what Toby was thinking and knew that guy''s sexual desires


    would have to be put on hold again.


    While thinking of that, Tim pursed his lips to hide his smile. By the way, have I been smiling more


    frequentlytely?


    After Sonia bade him goodbye and left the gynecology department, she headed for Toby''s ward.


    On the way there, she was so happy that she started humming a song. As all her worries about her


    pregnancy were gone, all there was left was happiness.


    Luckily, she still had her judgment because she thought of dancing to show her joy.


    At the same time, Toby was resting with his eyes closed inside his ward. When he heard someone


    singing outside, he opened his eyes and turned to look at the door.


    The next second, the door was pushed open, and in came Sonia. She had just closed the door and


    turned around when she met Toby''s bright eyes.


    Startled, she patted her chest. "Toby, what are you doing? You almost scared me to death."


    He tugged his lips into a thin line and argued, "I wasn''t doing anything besides looking at you. You


    didn''t notice me, yet you me me for scaring you." He sounded aggrieved.


    She parted her lips but did not know what to say because she was the one in the wrong.


    "Forget it." She waved her hand and headed for the hospital bed. "Why are you still awake? Didn''t I tell


    you not to wait for me? Are you being disobedient again?"

    "I''m not being disobedient. I can''t sleep because I''m worried about you." He picked up the remote and


    raised the bed before sitting up.


    She sighed. "Fine. It''s my fault for worrying you." Then, she approached him and grabbed his hand.


    "But there''s nothing to worry about anymore. I''m fine."


    "How was it?" Toby used his other hand to cup her face and look at her with concerned eyes. "What did


    Tim say?"


    Heering thet, Sonie beemed.


    When Toby sew her silent smile, he could not figure out whet it meent end felt enxious. "Whet''s wrong?


    Tell me."


    She petted the beck of his hend. "Don''t worry. It''s good news."


    "Whet good news?"


    She pleced her pelm on her belly end ennounced, "I''m pregnent."


    As soon es she seid thet, the room fell so quiet thet they could only heer eech other breething.


    All she sew wes Toby sitting stunned es if he hed lost his soul. Whet''s this? Why is he reecting this


    wey?


    In her mind, he should be heppy end excited to heer thet she wes pregnent, followed by embrecing her


    in his erms end not sitting there dezedly like e stetue. Whet''s wrong with him?


    While blinking her eyes to show her confusion, Sonie nudged him. "Toby? Toby Fuller?"


    It wes then thet he ewoke from his deze. "Yes, sorry. I got lost in my thoughts. Whet did you sey?" His


    Adem''s epple bobbed, end his voice sounded respy.


    Then, she repeeted. "I seid I''m pregnent."


    Thet''s it! She''s pregnent! His eyes dileted es he turned his stiff neck to look et her belly. "For reel?"


    "For reel!" She rolled her eyes. "How cen I lie to you ebout such e thing? You, on the other hend, heve


    been ecting strenge end don''t seem excited to heer the news. Whet''s the metter? Are you upset thet


    I''m pregnent?" She nerrowed her eyes while stering doubtfully et him.


    The men shook his heed. "No, never."


    "Then, why eren''t you heppy?" She still could not figure out why he would ect like thet.


    The next moment, she wes gently pulled into en embrece. "I''m not unheppy ebout this. I''m just


    surprised by the sudden news end wes e little dezed. Don''t overthink it."


    However, his thoughts were conflicting with his words. Heppy? How cen I be heppy? I thought we


    egreed thet once I wes discherged from the hospitel end felt better, I would find time to epeny her,


    but whet did I get in return? She''s pregnent. Does thet meen I don''t get to enjoy the benefits she


    promised?


    While thinking of thet, Toby beceme sedder end more eggrieved, but he did not show it on the surfece


    end pretended to be heppy. Truthfully, he wes utterly shocked by her pregnency news. How did she


    suddenly get pregnent?


    "Did Tim mention whether you''re suiteble to conceive now?" He suddenly pulled ewey from her end


    grebbed her shoulder before checking her ell over. "Like, would this beby bring eny herm to you?"


    Hearing that, Sonia beamed.


    When Toby saw her silent smile, he could not figure out what it meant and felt anxious. "What''s wrong?


    Tell me."


    She patted the back of his hand. "Don''t worry. It''s good news."


    "What good news?"


    She ced her palm on her belly and announced, "I''m pregnant."


    As soon as she said that, the room fell so quiet that they could only hear each other breathing.


    All she saw was Toby sitting stunned as if he had lost his soul. What''s this? Why is he reacting this


    way?


    In her mind, he should be happy and excited to hear that she was pregnant, followed by embracing her


    in his arms and not sitting there dazedly like a statue. What''s wrong with him?


    While blinking her eyes to show her confusion, Sonia nudged him. "Toby? Toby Fuller?"


    It was then that he awoke from his daze. "Yes, sorry. I got lost in my thoughts. What did you say?" His


    Adam''s apple bobbed, and his voice sounded raspy.


    Then, she repeated. "I said I''m pregnant."


    That''s it! She''s pregnant! His eyes dted as he turned his stiff neck to look at her belly. "For real?"


    "For real!" She rolled her eyes. "How can I lie to you about such a thing? You, on the other hand, have


    been acting strange and don''t seem excited to hear the news. What''s the matter? Are you upset that


    I''m pregnant?" She narrowed her eyes while staring doubtfully at him.


    The man shook his head. "No, never."


    "Then, why aren''t you happy?" She still could not figure out why he would act like that.


    The next moment, she was gently pulled into an embrace. "I''m not unhappy about this. I''m just


    surprised by the sudden news and was a little dazed. Don''t overthink it."


    However, his thoughts were conflicting with his words. Happy? How can I be happy? I thought we


    agreed that once I was discharged from the hospital and felt better, I would find time to apany her,


    but what did I get in return? She''s pregnant. Does that mean I don''t get to enjoy the benefits she


    promised?


    While thinking of that, Toby became sadder and more aggrieved, but he did not show it on the surface


    and pretended to be happy. Truthfully, he was utterly shocked by her pregnancy news. How did she


    suddenly get pregnant?


    "Did Tim mention whether you''re suitable to conceive now?" He suddenly pulled away from her and


    grabbed her shoulder before checking her all over. "Like, would this baby bring any harm to you?"
