Chapter 266
Cordelia realized she couldn''t let him know she was aware he''d been secretly deleting her emails. If he
found out she knew, he might have continued doing it. She decided to y dumb, pretending she
hadn''t received the job offer. As soon as the time came, she''d make her escape.
"Stomachache?" Ronan asked, approaching Cordelia.
Her eyes, which were initially filled with resentment, suddenly softened. "I''m not feeling so well today.
Could you take me to the hospital? Victoria''s Hospital."
Seeing her pale face and the way she clutched her stomach, Ronan helped her into the car, heading
straight for the hospital. On the way, Cordelia video called Victoria, asking if she was at the hospital
today because her stomach was hurting.
"I''m on call today, are you bleeding?"
"No, just a stomachache," Cordelia replied, her forehead damp with sweat. She wanted to lie down but
couldn''t. She tried to find afortable position in the car, but it was impossible.
"Just hang in there," Ronan said, noticing her pained expression through the rearview mirror.
About twenty minutester, they arrived at the hospital. After examining Cordelia, Victoria called Ronan
into her office, telling them Cordelia was having a threatened miscarriage. "Have you been upset
recently?" Victoria asked Cordelia. “Emotional stress can easily lead to a miscarriage. Fortunately,
you’re not bleeding. It’s not serious, but you need to be careful.”

Ronan stood by Cordelia’s side.
“I’d like to be,” Cordelia said, her voice tinged with mncholy. She wanted to be fine, but Ronan
wasn’t making things easy. Their constant arguments and sex were taking a toll on her. Plus, she had
just found out that Ronan had deleted her job offer, blocking her way to further her studies.
"Also, isn''t it true that you can''t have sex during pregnancy?" Cordelia asked, ncing at Ronan out of
the corner of her eye. She wanted Ronan to know how much he''d hurt her.
"Normal pregnant women shouldn''t during the first three months and thest three months. The fetus
isn''t stable during the first three months, and the uterus is under great pressure in thest three. But
Cordelia, you''re carrying twins. Your uterus is already under a lot of stress," Victoria said, sounding a
bit annoyed. She looked at Ronan and said, "Mr. Evans, can''t you control yourself? These are your
babies too."
Cordelia clenched her clothes tightly. To stop Victoria from saying more, Cordelia said, "It might also be
because I''ve been upset these past few days."
"Mr. Evans, you shouldn''t upset Cordelia while she''s pregnant. You need to keep her in high spirits.
And Cordelia, remember the prenatal yoga ss Brooklyn mentioned? You should give it a try. Isn''t that
right, Mr. Evans?" Victoria asked, looking at Ronan.
Even someone as fearless as Ronan had to respect Victoria. "Yes," he replied.
Victoria prescribed some medication for Cordelia, who then headed home. On the way back, Ronan
remained silent.
"Only I know who the father of the baby is. Neither Victoria nor Brooklyn know anything about it. They
only guessed," Cordelia said.
"Why deny what''s already known?" Ronan asked, looking at Cordelia through the rearview mirror.
"I just didn''t want you to overthink," Cordelia replied, ying with her fingers.
"I didn''t."
As they neared their home, Ronan said, "I''ll move back to Pearl Palms. I''ll have Kitty teach you
prenatal yoga."
"Thank you, Mr. Evans," Cordelia said, looking out the window, her voice distant.
Afraid Ronan would see her relief, she slowly let out a breath she''d been holding. But Ronan noticed.
"So, you can''t stand seeing me?" he asked.
"No, it''s just…"
"Nevermind." Ronan''s anger finally subsided. He knew Cordelia''s threatened miscarriage was directly
rted to him, so he decided to move back to Pearl Palms.
