    Chapter 19 Tabatha Is Pregnant?


    I looked up at Carley, wondering what she wanted me to do. She got up with the help of Dale, looked at


    the fish in theke, and then said, “Dale will take you to the hospital tomorrow morning.”


    “The hospital? What for?” I didn’t understand. I asked and looked at her, puzzled.

    She looked calm andposed. She said softly, “You’ll know when you get there. Alright then. You’ve


    been standing for so long, and I believe that you’re tired now. Go back and get some rest.”


    Carley asked Dale to walk me out of the house. When I left, I saw Walter’s car parked outside. He just


    got out of the car, and he was heading to the passenger side to open the door for the person in the car.


    It was Ashley. At the sight of her, I stopped. Why did Walter bring her here? Because of her pregnancy?


    Walter and Ashley were about to enter, and of course, they saw me. Walter frowned slightly and then


    strode toward me, standing in front of me while asking, “Why are you here?”


    I looked away from Ashley and looked at him mockingly. “I’m the granddaughter-inw of the Hinton


    family. Can’t I be here?”


    Recognizing the displeasure in my tone, Walter frowned slightly, and his voice was low and reserved as


    he said, “Grandma asked me to bring her here.”


    I said nothing. I just looked at Ashley, who was with a smug face. The way she looked at me right now


    wasn’t reserved at all. Instead, her eyes were filled with provocation and arrogance. It seemed that she


    was the granddaughter-inw of the Hinton family.


    “Let’s get inside before Grandma waits too long, Walter.” Before today, she put on an act and distanced


    herself from Walter while I was around. Yet now, she directly leaned closer to Walter and reminded him


    affectionately.


    Walter ignored her and looked at me. He said, “Wait for me at Water Vi.”


    I did not say anything. I nced at them neither coldly nor warmly and then left calmly.


    Dale was driving while I looked out the window in a daze. Dale looked at me and hesitated to speak


    several times.


    I looked back and said, “Dale, what’s on your mind? Just tell me.”


    Being exposed, Dale smiled awkwardly. Then he turned serious and said, “Mrs. Hinton, I heard that Ms.


    Conner is pregnant with Mr. Hinton’s baby, which is probably the reason why Ms. Conner is wanted at


    the old home. You…”


    Looking at his worried appearance, I said, “I know. Dale, thank you for telling me this.”


    He nodded and sighed, “Your sister is not easy to deal with. You’d better be wary of her.”


    I wasn’t stupid. Dale wouldn’t bring this up for no reason. I knew that Ashley had something to do with


    the exposure of what had happened five years ago. Ashley figured that after Carley knew about it, I


    would no longer have a ce in the Hinton family. What was more, Ashley was pregnant. As long as I


    was out of the picture, of course, she got to be with Walter.


    Walter asked me to wait for him at Water Vi, yet he was nowhere to be seen. He didn’te back or


    reach out the entire night.


    I didn’t call to ask him. Instead, I simply sat by the bed all night. The ending had been set, so why


    should I bother struggling? I might as well just ept it.


    The next day arrived.


    Dale came early and took me to the hospital for a check-up, as Carley had ordered.


    In the hospital, I was taken into the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department by a middle-aged woman,


    and then I had an ultrasound and my blood drawn. She also asked me something about my period.


    I was confused after getting out of the check-up room. Carley already asked me to divorce Walter. Why


    would she have Dale bring me in for a check-up like this?


    Half an hourter, the middle-aged female doctor came over with several reports and looked at Dale.


    “The report results came out.”


    Dale took the papers and nodded at her, and she left.


    I looked at Dale, puzzled. “Dale, these tests…”


    He didn’t answer. Instead, he looked at me and said, “We need to go see Mrs. Hinton now.”


    Now that he wouldn’t talk to me, of course, I wouldn’t know more. I could only follow him downstairs in


    confusion.


    In the hospital lobby, I saw Walter and Ashleying in. I almost wanted to exim how small the


    world was for enemies.


    Howe I bumped into them everywhere?


    Walter was obviously surprised to see me and Dale. Yet his surprise onlysted for a few seconds.


    Then he came forward and looked at me. “You’re sick?”


    When he asked this, he looked at Dale, obviously knowing that I didn’t want to talk to him.


    Dale hesitated for a moment, then looked at Ashley, who followed Walter. He paused and said to


    Walter, “I apany Mrs. Hinton here for a checkup.”


    With that, he handed the reports to Walter. Walter took the papers, nced at me, and then looked


    down at the papers. After a while, he suddenly looked surprised, so I couldn’t help looking at the


    papers as well.


    Before I saw the results clearly, Walter looked at me, his eyes obscure. “Since when did you know?”


    I was confused, not knowing what the results were. After hesitating for a few seconds, I took the results


    from his hand and looked at them. When I saw the words on the B-ultrasound list, my brain buzzed,


    and I froze.


    It said, “Intrauterine early pregnancy for more than eight weeks.”


    Early pregnancy? Eight weeks?


    I was pregnant? For more than two months?
