On this day, Tessa visited the wedding venue to check on the progress of the preparations as per usual. She was making her way around the wedding venue when a wave of dizziness washed over her without warning. Before she lost consciousness, she heard various exclamations from all around her, “Young Madam!”
Inside the meeting room of the Sawyer Group, Nicholas was listening to the executives below him report on the company’s operations during the last quarter when his personal phone rang. It was a phone call from the bodyguard he had assigned to Tessa.
“Boss, Madam Tessa fainted earlier. We are on the way to the hospital now.” As soon as the words sounded through the phone, his expression instantly turned solemn.
“Understood. I’m heading there now.” After he said that, he hung up and made a curt announcement before leaving the meeting room in a hurry. “The meeting is adjourned. The others will present their reports on another day.”
The executives watched him scramble out the door. Then, they began whispering among themselves and wondering whether something had happened. Oblivious to the gossip, Nicholas hastily sped to the hospital.
When he arrived at the hospital, he discovered. that both his parents and Kieran were already. there. They were anxiously waiting outside the emergency room. “Dad, Mom, Kieran, how is Tessa’s condition?” Nicholas quickly rushed over to them and asked worriedly.
Stefania shook her head. “The doctor has not come out yet, so we don’t know the situation inside either. After that, she paused for a moment. Her voice was filled with an indescribable sense of worry, “Why did such a healthy person faint out of nowhere?”
Nicholas remained silent and simply stood by the side with his thin lips pressed tightly together. When Kieran caught sight of the uneasy expression on Nicholas’ face, he earnestly comforted him. “Tessa will be fine. After all, our entire family receives a physical examination. every year. Tessa is probably just tired.”
The door to the emergency room opened while Kieran was speaking. Nicholas immediately approached and intercepted the doctor who had just stepped. out of the emergency room.
“How is my wife? Why did she faint out of nowhere?” he questioned anxiously. Stefania, Tobias, and Kieran also crowded around the doctor. When the doctor saw the anxiety written on their faces, he calmly reassured them, “The patient is fine. There’s no need to worry.”
“How can she be fine when she fainted?” Stefania glared at the doctor with a look of displeasure. The doctor patiently explained without taking offense at her words, “The patient fainted due to her pregnancy, in addition to the fact that she has been overworking recently.”
As soon as the words left the doctor’s mouth, everybody froze in shock for a moment. Then, they became indescribably exuberant.
In the midst of Stefania’s excitement, she abruptly realized something. Then, she raised. her hand, smacked Nicholas on the arm. repeatedly, and scolded him, ‘Tessa is pregnant! How can you, as her husband, fail to notice something so important? You even allowed her to be so busy!”
Nicholas felt helpless but remained silent. Afterward, they followed the nurse to the hospital ward where Tessa was currently resting. It was not until evening that Tessa finally woke up. She swiveled her head and bewilderedly. stared at the unfamiliar room; she couldn’t help feeling confused.
At this moment, Gregory’s cheerful voice. entered her ears, ‘Mommy, you’re awake!” At the sound of Gregory’s voice, the rest of the Sawyer Family members immediately jerked to their feet.
When Tessa saw that everybody was in the hospital ward with her, she pushed herself up. and questioned suspiciously, “You’re all here… What happened to me?”
“You were too exhausted due to your pregnancy and fainted at the hotel, Stefania explained. Then, she followed up in concern, “How do you feel? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”
“I’m pregnant?” Tessa stared at her stomach in astonishment. At this time, both Gregory and Gordon leaned over. They happily threw themselves on the hospital bed and confirmed the fact in their bell-like voices, ‘Mommy, it’s true! You have a baby now! The doctor told us himself!”
Tessa was overjoyed upon hearing those words. She couldn’t help looking forward to the birth of her child. A tender expression appeared on her face as she placed her hand gently on her abdomen. Gregory glanced at her stomach with bright eyes. “Mommy, will this baby be a little sister this time?”
“Why? Would you hate it if the baby was a boy?” She tickled the tip of his nose affectionately as a joke. Who could have known that Gordon would join in the conversation now? He softly declared, “I want a little sister! A little sister would be great! Greg said a little sister would be as great as you, Mommy!”
