Chapter 228 Pregnancy
She thought it would take forever, but who knew she'd get pregnant so fast?
Right after Tomorrow's Gathering, Elsa started showing early pregnancy signs.
She felt dizzy, sleepy, and couldn't stand the smell of meat. When she did the math, she realized her period was already two weeks late!
Luke was away on a business trip. She took a home pregnancy test on her own, and bam, two lines!
Was she pregnant already?
Elsa stared at the test strip, lost in a daze for almost two hours.
Was she really going to be a mom just like that?
Was she really going to have a kid with her blood running through its veins?
It must have been Leslie's blessing that day when she saw how well Luke treated her!
Elsa called Chloe, trying to keep her cool, "Can you come with me to the hospital?"
She decided not to go to Valley of Hope Hospital but chose BrightCare Maternal and Child Hospital in Maplewood City instead.
First, the prenatal checkups there were top-notch, and second, Elsa wanted to surprise Luke when he got back.
"5 weeks pregnant, the fetus is developing normally." Looking at the prenatal checkup report, Elsa couldn't help but do the math.
Judging by the timing, it must have been that night in Stellaria City, which lined up with her ovulation period. But back then, she was still sulking and had no plans of getting pregnant.
Guess God had other plans.
Chloe said, "Just so you know, I have to be the godmother when the baby is born."
She was thrilled for her too. They sat on the chairs outside the obstetrics and gynecology department, looking at the report over and over while chatting.
"Of course, but you have to prepare a big gift," Elsa said happily, leaning half on Chloe and feeling like everything was going unbelievably smoothly.
"If it's a daughter, I'll have a son in the future..." Chloe's voice suddenly trailed off.
Elsa followed her gaze and saw Karen walking towards them.
At this moment, Karen was no longer the down-and-out Karen from a few months ago.
David had made some more money, and the Miller family was doing even better than before, and Karen was super smug at this moment.
"Are you pregnant?" Karen blocked Chloe and Elsa's way, asking with a smirk.
"None of your business!" Chloe instinctively shielded Elsa behind her, facing Karen head-on.
"So poor, even when you're pregnant, Luke doesn't come with you to the hospital. Looks like you're not that important in the Taylor family," Karen sneered.
"I heard David's been doing well lately, but why are you still the same, not making any progress?" Elsa shot back, stepping out from behind Chloe. She continued, "By the way, how's Phyllis doing in prison? Aren't you going to find a way to get her out?"
Karen immediately shrieked, "Elsa, do you think being pregnant will secure your spot as Luke's wife? You better see if you can keep the baby first!"
"Shut your mouth!" Chloe got furious as soon as she heard her cursing the baby. Without thinking, she slapped Karen.
"You dare slap me!" Karen was stunned, covering half of her face in disbelief.
Chloe crossed her arms, saying, "It's not the first time I've hit you. Is it that surprising? Let me tell you, this slap is a lesson. If you dare curse Elsa's baby again, I'll kick your ass."
"Chloe, do you think I won't dare touch you?" Karen screamed again and lunged at her.
