Chapter 462: She Can't Be Pregnant
Nora's hand slipped inside his clothes, her fingers gliding along the lines of his muscles.
His physique was really impressive.
It seemed that during the time he hadn't come to see her, he had been paying attention to his workouts, and his body seemed even more solid and masculine.
Her hand finished exploring the top and started to move downward.
But just as she touched him, Isaac suddenly grabbed her wrist and forcibly pulled her hand out.
His lips also released her.
He was panting heavily, his voice hoarse as if all the moisture had been burned away by fire, "Stop fooling around, the kids are right next to us."
Nora's wandering rationality gradually returned.
She blushed and bit her lip, feeling extremely regretful and annoyed with herself.
She had been so captivated by his looks that she forgot the kids were sleeping next to them and almost did something so bold, nearly stripping him right there.
Fortunately, he hadn't lost his mind like she did and woke her up at the critical moment.
Otherwise, if their movements woke up Magnus and Soren, and they saw them having sex, she would be very embarrassed facing them in the future.
Nora took a deep breath, and after her breathing became more stable, she whispered, "How about we go to the next room?"
Isaac's breath hitched.
He struggled internally for a moment and then said in a deep voice, "I didn't rest well today, maybe next time."
Nora felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over her, and her desire instantly dissipated.
She was silent for a while and then softly replied, "Okay."
"I'm sorry," Isaac hugged her tightly, his deep voice filled with deep apology and pain.
Nora patted his back and chuckled softly, "Why are you apologizing? It makes it seem like I'm unsatisfied and angry. I'm not blaming you, just get some good rest."
Seeing him apologize so cautiously, a pang of pain hit her heart, and she couldn't help but feel sorry for him.
He still hadn't gotten over that mental hurdle.
He still felt that his body was unclean after having sex with someone else, so he didn't dare to make love to her.
Tears welled up in Nora's eyes, and she bit her lip hard to force them back.
Isaac hugged her tighter, but the aura of pain around him lingered for a long time.
In the following period, Isaac would bring her a bouquet of flowers every day when he came home from work.
As long as he was around, he would take care of her meticulously.
He tried every possible way to be good to her.
Every night he would hold her to sleep, but they never made love.
For a whole month, he still hadn't gotten over that mental hurdle.
He still felt that he was unworthy of her, afraid that he would dirty her.
Isaac feared that if he made love to Nora, and one day she found out he had sex with others, she would think he was dirty and accuse him of defiling her.
Just thinking about Nora accusing and scolding him was unbearable for him.
So, he never dared to make love to her.
He himself felt that he was unworthy of making love to her.
He himself felt that he was dirty.
He really wanted to confess to Nora, but he didn't dare to say it.
He couldn't bear the consequences.
What if, after knowing the truth, Nora didn't want to see him again and told him to stay away from her and the kids?
Even though he was in pain and torment now, he didn't dare to confess.
Isaac was also very worried that Mortimer would tell Nora about what happened on the cruise ship.
But fortunately, for the past month, Mortimer had been very well-behaved.
Mortimer would visit Magnus and Soren every night but would only stay for a short while before leaving.
Except for the first day when Mortimer deliberately mentioned the cruise ship incident, he hadn't brought it up again for the rest of the month.
This gradually eased Isaac's tense nerves.
On the weekend, Nora called Isaac and took Magnus and Soren to the amusement park.
Although they had been to the amusement park many times, Magnus and Soren loved playing there and never got tired of it, even if they went every week.
They played from morning until night.
The kids had a great time playing outside.
When they got home, they were like toys that had run out of batteries, instantly losing all energy.
They couldn't keep their eyes open while eating dinner.
After dinner, they fell asleep directly in the living room.
Nora chuckled, "We can't let them play so wildly next time. They fell asleep all dirty."
Isaac said, "It's okay, they rarely get to play for a whole day. Let them have fun. We'll clean them up later."
Nora could only nod.
Isaac went to the bedroom to get Magnus and Soren's pajamas and ran a hot bath in the bedroom's bathroom, asking Nora to bathe Soren while he took Magnus to the other bathroom.
While bathing Magnus, Isaac couldn't help but think of the Magnus at home.
The Magnus at home always stayed inside and never got to play outside.
Next week, he would find some time to take him out to play alone.
They were the same age, and it wouldn't be fair if Magnus and Soren got to have fun while the Magnus at home didn't.
After bathing Magnus, Isaac also took a shower.
When he returned to the room with Magnus, Nora still hadn't finished bathing Soren.
Isaac couldn't help but chuckle; men indeed did things more roughly.
After another half hour, Nora finally came out with Soren.
Nora put Soren down, and Isaac immediately pulled her into his arms.
"You must be tired too. Get some rest," Isaac gently patted Nora's back.
Nora nodded, but the next second, she suddenly pushed Isaac away urgently, her voice pained, "Let go of me quickly."
Isaac immediately became nervous, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Nora didn't have time to explain.
She pushed Isaac away forcefully, quickly got out of bed, and ran to the bathroom without even putting on her shoes.
Isaac thought Nora had diarrhea.
But then he heard the sound of vomiting from the bathroom.
Isaac's heart tightened.
He got out of bed and walked into the bathroom, asking worriedly, "What's wrong?"
Nora had finished vomiting. She closed the toilet lid and flushed.
Isaac handed her a glass of water.
Nora took the water, rinsed her mouth, "I don't know, my stomach suddenly felt uncomfortable, and I couldn't help but vomit."
Isaac asked worriedly, "Could it be that you ate something bad?"
She had eaten quite a lot outside, and maybe some of the food wasn't fresh.
Nora said, "Maybe, I already feel..."
She was about to say she felt better when the nausea surged up her throat again.
She quickly opened the toilet and started vomiting again.
After a while, she finally felt better, but her face looked very pale, and her body felt weak.
Isaac handed her another glass of water and said in a deep voice, "I'll take you to the hospital. Change your clothes, and I'll call someone to watch Magnus and Soren."
"No need," Nora felt it wasn't a big deal and refused.
But Isaac had already walked back to the room, found his phone, and called the bodyguards.
Soon, he brought a set of clothes into the bathroom and handed them to her, "Change into these clothes. The bodyguards will be here soon."
Nora felt he was making a big deal out of it, but seeing his serious expression and his refusal to take no for an answer, she could only change her clothes.
The bodyguards arrived ten minutes later.
Isaac had them stay in the living room.
Then he personally drove Nora to the hospital.
At the hospital, after listening to Nora's description, the doctor adjusted his glasses and asked, "When was your last period?"
Nora was stunned for a moment before she realized.
Was the doctor suspecting she was pregnant?
She carefully recalled her last period, and her heart skipped a beat.
Could it be?
Isaac suddenly voiced, "She can't be pregnant. Check for something else."
