Chapter 713


    The test results came out, and it turned out that Ariah was pregnant.


    Holding the report in her hand, she was still in a state of shock. Felipe kept calling her name, but


    she never responded.


    While prescribing Ariah the medicine she needed, the doctor said, "This is your first child, right? It''s


    perfectly normal to react this way during the first time. Remember what I just told you. Come back


    for a check-up after two weeks."


    Just like that, Ariah returned home, still confused as ever.


    Then, she heard Felipe said, "You should at least eat something. Even if you don''t feel like eating,


    your baby must be hungry." It was only then that she snapped back to her senses. Eyes scanning


    the room, she was stunned. "When did Ie back?"


    Rolling his eyes, Felipe said, "I brought you back home hours ago." Then, he opened the bag on the


    table. "These are the medicine the doctor gave you earlier. I checked them out, and I think he gave


    you some vitamins."


    After staring at the medicine for a while, Ariah replied with a hum. She stood up and went back to


    her bedroom. "I''m feeling a little sleepy, so I''m going to get some rest. If there''s nothing else, you


    can leave first."


    Shey in bed and looked at the ceiling but could not fall asleep at all.


    Right after she made up her mind to break up with Jimmy, she found out that she was pregnant.


    The more she thought about it, the more frustrated she got.


    Tossing and turning around, she did not sleep a winkst night. After getting up, she looked at


    herself in the mirror and realized there were dark circles under her eyes.


    After washing her face, she decided to fix herself some food. After pondering for a moment, she


    grabbed her keys and went to a nearby supermarket to get some fresh vegetables and fruit, as well


    as some nutritious food.


    Ariah finished all the food she cooked. Unsure whether it was because she had not eaten anything


    yesterday or because her mind was ying tricks on her, she suddenly felt her appetite increased


    greatly.

    After she finished breakfast, Felipe came to visit her with some fruits. "I bought these for you."


    Staring at the two bags full of fruits, she pointed at the coffee table. "You can put them there."


    Chuckling, Felipe put down the fruit. "What are you going to do today?"


    "I''m going to the hospital to work."


    "It''s a holiday though. Why are you going to work?"


    "I still have some work left to wrap up. I can only enjoy my holiday in peace after I finish them."


    "I''ll apany you then."


    Ariah was speechless.


    However, Felipe was already at the door. "Let''s go. You are a national treasure now. Nobody can


    touch you. I have to take care of you until Jimmyes back."


    Suddenly, Ariah shot him a re, "I''m warning you. You''d better not tell Jimmy that I''m pregnant.


    Otherwise, I''ll beat you up real good!"


    "Can''t you be a bit gentle with me?" Felipe muttered. Noticing that she was still ring at him, he


    said hurriedly, "Fine. I won''t tell him anything. Stop ring at me. You''re so scary."


    After that, he ran out of the door quickly.


    Ariah arrived at the hospital and finished all of her work. Then, she was finally free.


    Even though she was working in the hospital, she worked in the psychiatry department. Unlike other


    departments, her department was much quieter.


    Some of her colleagues had already gone back to their hometown for the holidays.


    Today was also Ariah''sst working day as her annual leave officially began tomorrow.


    Sitting in her office, she was reading through her documents when she suddenly remembered


    something. Immediately, she fished out her cell phone and called Emily.


    After meeting Kobi in the hospital the other day, she was worried whether Emily would be in danger,


    but then, she was kidnapped. Until now, she did not know whether Emily was in safe hands.


    As she was still deep in her thoughts, the phone was connected.


    "Emily, are you alright?" Ariah asked.


    "Yeah, I''m fine. What''s wrong?" Emily sounded pretty normal over the phone. Pondering for a


    moment, Ariah asked, "Have you met Kobi then?"


    "Kobi?"


    "Don''t you know that he went to Mathines to look for you?"


    As soon as she said that, a crackling sound, apanied by Emily''s moan, was hearding from


    the other end of the phone.


    Ariah kept silent.


    "What did you say?" Emily, who had fallen off the sofa, opened her eyes wide in disbelief. "Kobi is in


    Mathines?"


    It seemed like Kobi really did not contact her at all.


    "On the day you boarded the ne, I went to the hospital to visit Kobi. When I told him that Lennon


    took you away, he immediately rushed to the airport." Ariah told her everything she knew, "It''s been


    a few days, so I thought you''ve already met him."


    Emily was in a daze. She could not believe that Kobi actually came looking for her.


    Suddenly, a thought struck her, and her face turned pale. Immediately, she said, "Ariah, I''m hanging


    up now. I... I still have something to deal with. I''ll call you tonight..."


    Before Ariah could say anything, Emily had already hung up the phone and dashed out of the door.


    Ariah said that Kobi left a few days ago, so it was impossible he had not arrived yet. Then, she


    recalled the time when she was having dinner with Lennon on the second day they returned home.


    Halfway through dinner, he received a call, and he left abruptly.


    At that time, she thought he had work to deal with,


    buting to think of it... Goosebumps started creeping up her skin.


    What if... the call was not work- rted? If his subordinate told him that Kobi was here...


    When she thought of how much Kobi might have suffered for the past two days, her heart ached.


    Still holding onto her phone, Ariah shook her head and could not helpughing. Judging by her


    voice, it seemed like she was safe now.


    Emily must be in good hands with her parents after returning to Mathines. There was no need for


    her to worry too much.


    The next day, Ariah went back to the Myers Family, and she told her mother about her pregnancy.


    Upon receiving that news, Dakota felt tears of joy welling up in her eyes. She held Ariah''s hand and


    looked at her belly before asking, "Why didn''t Jimmye back with you?"


    Lowering her gaze, Ariah said casually, "He''s busy, so I came back alone. Mom, I''m kind of hungry.


    Is there anything to eat?"


    She changed the topic so naturally that Dakota did not notice anything wrong. "I''ll go fix you


    something to eat. I don''t want to starve my grandson."


    After Dakota left, Ariah sat in the living room and watched the television. Momentster, Lindsey


    came back and saw her sitting on the sofa. For no reason, she felt annoyed. Then, she walked past


    Ariah, purposely wanting to spill water on her.


    Fortunately, Ariah was prepared. Ever since Lindsey came in, she had been watching her closely,


    and she stayed away every time Lindsey got close to her.


    In the end, Lindsey''s hot teanded on the sofa.


    Ariah looked at her coldly.


    Now that her n was discovered, Lindsey felt even more furious.


    Ariah often got schemed since young, so she did not feel anything much in particr.


    However, if she kept giving in to Lindsey, Lindsey might think she was a pushover.


    So, she thought it was time to teach Lindsey a lesson.


    A smile crept across Ariah''s face as she walked up to Lindsey. Suddenly, she lifted her arm and


    ced it on Lindsey''s shoulder. Then, she stared into her eyes and lifted a finger in front of her.
