Luna gripped the hem of her shirt tightly.
Although she was not certain if she was pregnant
yet, what if she really was? What would Joshua think if he found out that she got pregnant with his child?
Luna gritted her teeth.
Although Joshua was unfaithful, he was still a responsible father. Even though he was not fond of Luna
Gibson, he still convinced himself to treat Alice well, thinking that she was Luna Gibson, the mother of
his two children.
If he found out that Luna had gotten pregnant with his child, would he…
Luna did not even dare to imagine what would happen.
She watched the scenery outside the window pass by and felt inexplicably anxious and agitated.
She could not let Joshua know about the baby…
Luna knew she had no way of convincing Joshua she was fine and that she did not have to go to the
hospital. On the contrary, he might even grow suspicious if she continued to persuade him.
However, she did not dare jump out of the car for fear of hurting the fetus inside her…
Luna let out an exhale and closed her eyes. She had no choice but to take things as they came.
The car soon arrived at the hospital.
Joshua got out of the car and quickly dashed over to Luna’s side. As soon as he opened her door, he put
his arms around her and carried her out of her seat.
Luna let out a shriek when she felt her body suspend in mid-air. She lifted her head to gaze at Joshua,
frowning. “I can walk by myself.“
“Really? Or are you going to retch so hard again that you almost fell, like in the elevator? If you don’t
care about your own body, I care. “ With that, he strode into the hospital, carrying Luna in his arms.
Luna felt a little dazed. Without even thinking twice, she immediately blurted, “What did you just say? “
Joshua furrowed his brows. “If you don’t care about your own body, I care.“
He then seemed to realize something was wrong, as he awkwardly coughed and added, “You’re one of
my most important employees ; it’s only natural your health is of utmost importance.“
He gently placed her down on a bed in one of the hospital’s consultation rooms as he said, “She’s been
retching a lot the whole day. I’m concerned it might be stomach problems,“ he told the doctor.
The doctor nodded and scribbled something on his prescription notes. Then, she turned to look at
Joshua. “Any other symptoms besides retching?“
“There’s a lot more, “ Luna interjected from her spot on the hospital bed.
The doctor frowned and turned around to gaze at her. “Tell me about them.“
Luna let out an exhale and lifted her head to glance at Joshua. “Can you excuse us? I…want to talk to
the doctor alone.“
Joshua furrowed his brows when he heard this, and confusion flashed through his eyes. “What’s there to
talk about that I’m not allowed to hear?“
He was Luna’s immediate superior and the one who had sent her to the hospital to get checked. Why did
she want to talk to the doctor in private? What other symptoms could she possibly have to hide from
him?
She had been reluctant to see the doctor ever since they got into the car, and she was unwilling to let
him know the rest of her symptoms…
What was she trying to hide?
The doctor could tell that Luna was uncomfortable, so she smiled. “This is doctor-patient confidentiality.“
She shoved Joshua out of the room and said, “Don’t worry, I ‘ll take good care of her. “
Having been forced out of the room against his will, Joshua stared at the closed door before him and
narrowed his eyes. Meanwhile, the doctor leaned against the door impassively and swept a deadpan
glance across Luna. “You’re pregnant, right? And the baby belongs to the man that I just kicked out,
yes?“
