Chapter 701
Seeing the excited look on Sophia’s face, Michael forced a smile and pretended to have a good time
ying video games with Sophia the entire night. In the end, they had also decided on a name for
Chrysanthemum’s kittens.
Around 11 PM, Sophia was tired so she went to bed and fell asleep right away.
It was a good night’s sleep for Sophia. She had a thin nket covering her fair skin and body; the
temperature and humidity in the room were perfect. As she was asleep, her cheeks were flushed and her
ck hair covered her face. Lying next to her, he could not take his eyes off her beautiful face—it was as
if she had a magical aura around her.
What a cutie pie…
As he lightly kissed her on the forehead, her eyes blinked gently, seemingly filling the air in the room
with love and happiness.
She’s the best gift to me in the whole world …
Sophia had a doctor’s appointment. Ever since she wanted to have a baby, she had been consistent in
having regr body check-ups, so that she could get rid of any hidden illnesses that would prevent her
from having a baby.
Since Michael was on leave today, he took her to the doctor’s appointment.
Afterpleting a general check-up, the doctor proceeded to do a scan for any gynecological diseases.
The report that came out suggested that her body was in a good state, so she could get pregnant at any
time if she wanted. As such, she had to take care of her body and not fall sick. Other than that, she had a
decayed tooth and an impacted wisdom tooth. This situation required immediate attention as it would be
inconvenient to take care of it after she got pregnant. If the condition of those teeth got worse, the pain
would be unbearable.
Hearing that, Michael immediately made an appointment with a doctor at a stomatological hospital. After
the current appointment, he took Sophia there right away.
Meanwhile, at the stomatological hospital…
“Extraction?” Holding the X-ray film, Sophia jumped when she saw a horizontal wisdom tooth through the
film.
The dentist stated, “Your wisdom tooth is inmed. Look at you—even your cheek is swollen. If you want
to have a baby soon, you need to take care of this right away. Trust me; you don’t want it to cause you
any problems during your pregnancy.”
Sophia could not help licking the wisdom tooth. No wonder that part of my mouth has been hurting and
smelling bad recently.
Michael nced at her face. I thought she put on weight. I didn’t know that her face got swollen because
of an inmed tooth.
Michael became aware of the seriousness of the matter and immediately asked to schedule an
operation. Fortunately, they managed to jump the line on that day for the dentist to fill the cavities. A
couple of dayster, Michael took Sophia over for the wisdom tooth extraction.
The dentist grimly exined the operation to Sophia, “Your impacted wisdom tooth is fairly new, which
makes it easier to extract. It has only started emerging above the gum recently. We’re going to cut open
your gum and halve the wisdom tooth before taking it out.”Upon hearing that, Sophia was dumbfounded.
She immediately got up and wanted to leave. “There’s no way I’m doing that. I don’t want to do it
anymore.”
Michael wrapped his arms around her. “Don’t worry. There will be anesthesia. You won’t feel a thing.”
Sophia frowned bitterly and pouted. “I don’t want that… It’s so scary. I don’t want to have an extraction
anymore. I insist!”
Holding her in his arms, Michael kissed her and consoled gently, “Don’t worry. I’m here. I’ll be here the
whole time during the operation.”
Sophia rubbed her head against his chest and acted coy as she whined, “Um. Hubby, I’m scared…”
Michael responded, “I’m here. I’m right here. You don’t need to be scared. Come and let me kiss you.”
The two started kissing, which eventually made Sophia’s fear go away. After they finished making out,
they turned around and realized that everyone there at the busy clinic was disgustedly staring at them.
That’s gross! Look at this disgusting couple!
Finally, Sophia underwent the operation. The operation was smooth, and that wisdom tooth was
extracted sessfully. Even though the wound was stitched up, Sophia was nheless required to be
hospitalized for two days for observation given the size of the wound.
In the ward, while receiving an intravenous drip, Sophia was spitting out the blood from her mouth. Next
to her, Michael was putting away the bloody tooth that was halved.
He decided to stay in the ward to take care of Sophia. He brought her water and checked on her now
and then. After she was done receiving the intravenous drip, he brought ice and ced it on her swollen
cheek.
Michael touched her somewhat pale face, and just as he was about to utter something, someone
knocked on the door.
“Eh. What a coincidence!”In a patient’s gown, Irene stood outside the door and grinned as she looked at
Michael and Sophia.
Irene came to the hospital for tooth extraction, but she did not expect to run into them here.
Even though both of them had their teeth extracted, they looked entirely different. Sophia’s face was
swollen and pale while her wound would not stop bleeding; meanwhile, Irene looked fine and her skin
was radiant.
“What a coincidence! Did you have a tooth extraction as well?” Michael nheless greeted her.
Making herself at home, Irene came into the ward and sat down. She said, “Uh-huh. I’ve had a toothache
on and off recently, so I decided toe here for a tooth extraction as well as a dental crown.”
Once she opened her mouth, two rows of beautiful teeth loomed before Sophia’s eyes. Well, at any rate,
she’s Michael’s ex. As much as I hate her, I still have to pretend to smile. Sophia responded, “What a
coincidence.”
Sophia tried not to say anything to prevent her wound from bleeding.
Michael jumped in, “You just had an operation. You should talk less. Come. Lie down and get some rest.”
Afterying down on the bed, Sophia felt relieved that she no longer had to entertain Irene. After seeing
Irene off, Michael returned and started attending to his work in the ward.

Since this was a private hospital and Sophia stayed at the most expensive ward, she did not have to
share the room with any other patients.
The next day, Stanley took Sean and Sarah to the hospital to visit Sophia. Sitting on the edge of the bed,
Stanley was enjoying a pork knuckle when he stated, “Aunt, you have to be careful with your diet for the
next couple of days. You can only take fluids. Forget about things like pork knuckles. I’ll eat them on
behalf of you.”
Since Sophia had a fresh wound in her mouth, she could not act rashly. Otherwise, she would definitely
have strangled Stanley. Knowing that she could not eat anything solid, Stanley deliberately brought a
bag of delicious food to the hospital and unboxed it in front of her. While the three of them dug in, she
could only have her nd porridge. Every time after she ate something, she had to rinse her mouth with
mouthwash that tasted bitter and horrible.
After finishing their food, everyone departed, and Maria was there to put away all the trash. Sophia
swiped her phone for a good while before deciding to take a nap. Meanwhile, Michael was nowhere to be
seen.
Thest time she saw him was when Stanley came over. Michael left the ward at that point and had not
returned since, leaving Nathan by himself in the ward. At this point, Nathan was doing his homework
while munching away at some fruit.
“Nichs, where’s Daddy?
Nichs’ voice sounded out next to the bed. “Daddy went out to take a phone call.”
Phone call? Why is it taking so long?
Recalling that Irene was around in the hospital, Sophia instantly had an ominous feeling. Perhaps he
went to find Irene!
Right away, she lifted her nket and jumped out of bed. She draped a coat over her shoulders and left
the room. After pacing the hallway back and forth to look for Michael and failing to trace him, she instead
saw Irene surreptitiously scurrying toward the stairs.
Something’s wrong!
Alerted, Sophia quietly followed her. The stairs were dark, so she had to be quiet and gentle every time
she took a step. It was dark and quiet as if she was catching someone having an affair. Just a few
secondster, she heard a series of thuds as if something had rolled down the stairs. Following that, she
heard a blood-curdling scream.
“Ah!”
