As fellow parents, she knows that his heart is also troubled...

Christine Quinn stood up and didn’t expect Skyler Jones to stand up with her, holding her, "Why don’t you sleep a little longer?"

"Sorry for waking you."

Skyler Jones shook his head, "It’s still early, sleep for a while more?"

"No, Marie is going to her new school today for registration, I want to go with her."

"I’ll go with you."

Christine Quinn smiled slightly, "No need... If you’re recognized at school, it’ll affect Marie’s life at the new school. I can go alone."

"But..."

Christine Quinn had already put on her dressing gown and got out of bed, "I’ll be back soon."

As Christine Quinn washed up in the bathroom, Skyler Jones sighed heavily.

Taking out his phone, he dialed his subordinate Justin Walter. "Christine will take Marie to school later, please look after them..."

After ending the call, Skyler Jones got up.

When Christine Quinn came out of the bathroom, she saw Skyler Jones standing outside the door, with a slightly worried look on his handsome face.

Christine Quinn forced herself to smile, "I’m fine..." She came up to Skyler Jones, cradled his handsome face in her hands, and smiled, "We’ll go to the hospital when I get back."

"Sorry, Christine..."

"Don’t talk nonsense..." Christine Quinn tiptoed to plant a kiss on Skyler Jones’s face, "I know you’re concerned about my health... Let’s talk at the hospital, okay?"

"Okay."

In the car, Marie discussed her worries with Christine Quinn.

"Mommy, everyone at the new school speaks English, but my English isn’t good enough. I’m afraid I won’t be able to communicate well with them..."

Christine Quinn did not respond.

"Mommy..."

"Uh... huh?" Christine Quinn finally snapped back to reality, "What is it, Marie?"

Sitting in the back seat, Marilyn Quinn frowned slightly, "Mommy, I was talking to you, but you didn’t hear... Are you thinking about something?"

"No... go ahead, what’s bothering you?"

"I said..."

Christine Quinn didn’t know how she managed to send Marie to her new school. She was in a daze, and if she hadn’t already scheduled an appointment with Marie’s homeroom teacher, she might not have handled the enrollment procedures.

After leaving school, Christine Quinn didn’t drive immediately but leaned back in her seat, losing herself in thought.

The sudden nausea drove her out of the car...

After dry heaving on the roadside for a while, she finally eased the discomfort in her abdomen, leaning against the car body.

Suddenly, tears silently slid from the corners of her eyes...

But she did not allow herself to dwell in such sorrow and pain. She reached out resolutely to wipe them away, and then drove home.

As she entered the villa’s hall, she encountered Rebecca Quentin, who was comforting little Nancy.

Christine Quinn walked forward, softly asking, "What’s wrong with little Nancy?"

"She’s been crying..."

"Is she hungry?"

"Maybe... Usually, if she’s hungry, I just have to soothe her and she won’t cry, but this morning she’s unusually hard to soothe."

"Let me try." Saying that, Christine Quinn put down her bag and carefully took the little princess from Rebecca Quentin’s arms, gently coaxing, "Little Nancy, be good, are you hungry? Your mommy is a little muddle-headed, she doesn’t even know when you’re hungry... isn’t that right, little Nancy..."

Perhaps it was Christine Quinn’s gentle voice that gradually calmed little Nancy’s emotions, and finally, under Christine Quinn’s playful coaxing, she even giggled.

"Sis, you’re amazing... you soothed the wimpy kid at once."

Christine Quinn smiled contentedly, "Our little Nancy is really well-behaved..."

Rebecca Quentin smiled, linking arms with Christine Quinn, "Recently, you can hold little Nancy more often to practice... In ten months, you’ll be coaxing a child every day like I do..."

Christine Quinn said nothing, gazing at the adorable wimpy kid in her arms, maintaining a soft smile.

Rebecca Quentin assumed Christine Quinn was shy, not noticing anything unusual.

Back in her room, not seeing Skyler Jones, Christine Quinn sat alone at the edge of the bed.

Perhaps a servant notified Skyler Jones, for he opened the door at this moment.

Seeing Skyler Jones, Christine Quinn quickly wiped away the downcast look on her face, standing up from the bed, "I didn’t see you, I was just about to look for you."

Skyler Jones supported Christine Quinn, softly asking, "Still feeling unwell?"

"Huh?"

"You were vomiting for quite a while earlier."

Christine Quinn’s expression slightly froze, "How do you know?"

Skyler Jones said honestly, "I was worried about you being alone, so I had Justin accompany you."

"Oh..." Shaking her head, Christine Quinn smiled faintly, "I’m okay... Many pregnant women react this way." 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

"Shall we go to the hospital?"

Having mentally prepared herself, Christine Quinn nodded.

This whole way, Skyler Jones and Christine Quinn said nothing, the atmosphere inexplicably heavy.

When getting out of the car, Skyler Jones considerately wrapped an arm around Christine Quinn, breaking the silence, "Christine, I know this makes you uncomfortable, but please believe that I feel as bad as you do."

"I know."

Skyler Jones kissed Christine Quinn’s sad and weary face tenderly, "Don’t worry... I’ll be by your side."

Christine Quinn nodded, and finally followed Skyler Jones into the hospital.

In the doctor’s office, the doctor held Christine Quinn’s past medical records and the new report from examining her, frowning heavily.

Christine Quinn hurriedly asked, "Doctor, how about it? With my current physical condition, can I have a child?"

The doctor set down the report, truthfully saying to Christine Quinn, "Mrs. Jones, you should be well aware of your physical condition... Pregnancy will increase the burden on your heart, and you’ve had a dangerous heart surgery before, so this pregnancy could lead to heart failure, severely affecting your life."

"But all the test results show that my heart has no major problems, so I think I can have a normal pregnancy."

"Christine, don’t worry, let the doctor finish." Skyler Jones spoke to soothe Christine Quinn.

Christine Quinn took a deep breath and calmed down.

Skyler Jones asked, "Doctor, both my wife and I want to keep this child to the best of our ability. Is it possible for my wife to maintain the pregnancy without putting her life at risk?"

The doctor said, "Mr. Jones, as a doctor, my primary concern is my patients’ safety, so I would recommend Mrs. Jones consider terminating the pregnancy, as it’s the safest course for someone with heart disease. However, frankly speaking, Mrs. Jones’s test results show she is currently in good health, which doesn’t rule out her heart being able to handle the pregnancy load... We cannot predict this, so I ask you and your wife to choose carefully."
