Chapter 801 Signs of a New Life
Looking at Tessa’s beautiful face without any makeup on, there was a unique scent in the air that made his heart skip a beat.
All of a sudden, he reached out and hugged her.
Tessa only managed to gasp before her lips were sealed by Nicholas’.
The romantic scene ended there as both parties did not do anything else.
…
The next day, they went to the hospital after the family of three had their breakfast.
Getting out of the car, they were about to enter the hospital when Stefania’s voice came from behind them.
“Hello, Nicholas and Miss Reinhart.”
“Grandma. Why are you here? Are you sick?”
Gregory, who was surprised to see Stefania here, ran over to her.
Tessa also looked worryingly at her. “Are you alright, Mom?”
Even though Nicholas did not say anything, he had fixed his gaze onto his mother.
Seeing this, Stefania knew that although they had misunderstood her, she was still very moved deep inside.
“I’m fine. I came to the hospital for you all.”
“Us?” Tessa grew even more confused by this.
Stefania then explained, “Originally, I wanted to visit Gregory, but I heard from Andrew that you came here for the ultrasound; that was why I followed you guys.”
Turning around, she suddenly lectured Nicholas, “Since you’re here with Miss Reinhart for the ultrasound, isn’t it very inconvenient to bring Gregory along? Why didn’t you call me for help, since I have nothing to do at home?”
Despite her explanation, Tessa and Nicholas knew that Stefania only wanted to see Gregory.
“It was our lack of consideration. Well, since you’re already here, why don’t you accompany us for the test?” Tessa extended this sudden invitation.
Naturally, Stefania accepted it.
It was then Gregory understood that his grandmother came over to see him, so he boasted, “Grandma, let me tell you something. When we came for the checkup last time, I even heard the heartbeat of the baby! It’s so magical!”
“Really?”
Although Stefania was talking to Gregory, her eyes were looking at Tessa.
Instantly knowing what Stefania was thinking of, Tessa smiled subtly. “It really is magical. You can also experience it for yourself later.”
Soon, they arrived at the office of the doctor.
After filling in all the information, the checkup began.
There were all sorts of tests such as ECG and blood samples being taken.
Noticing Tessa’s blood was being drawn, Stefania frowned. “Why are they drawing so much blood? Do they collect this much every checkup?”
Tessa smiled even brighter after hearing her mother-in-law’s words.
“It’s fine, Mom. These are just normal procedures.”
Hearing this, Stefania did not say anything more.
Finally, the test ended with the ultrasound showing that the baby was in a normal condition.
As for Stefania, she grew very excited after hearing the heartbeat of the baby.
After the tests, they exited the hospital with Stefania still baffled, especially because of the baby’s heartbeat that made her feel so much closer to her future grandchildren; it rendered her a sense of wonder and fascination.
“Remember to take the supplements that I sent over daily. That way we can ensure to have a healthy child.”
Before she left, she reminded Tessa concerningly, “Don’t tire yourself out as well. Please take good care of yourself.”
“I will.” The daughter-in-law nodded.
Arriving home, Nicholas set Tessa on the couch to rest while Gregory went upstairs for classes.
Later that day, she received a call from Mona.
“Tessa, Miss Hathaway is back.”
“She’s back?” Tessa was a bit shocked as she asked, “Then, did she come alone or with someone?”
“She’s alone. I didn’t see Kathleen,” reported Mona truthfully.
This made Tessa even more surprised. Is Miss Hathaway giving up on saving Kathleen?
Just as she was thinking about the possible scenarios, Mona’s voice came from the phone again, “Tessa, when will you be joining us?”
“I should be returning in about two days.”
