Mireya was shocked, and Rodney was surprised too. “
Are you serious? Everyone already knows about your marriage. Did Cindy agree?”
“She’s too controlling and demanding. My mind is set.” Chester clearly did not want to talk about it.” Let’s go. I’ll bring you to the OB-GYN department.”
Halfway there, they met Doctor Kendall, who nodded with a smile. “Doctor Jewell, is the wound on your mouth better? Remember to apply the ointment today too.”
Chester’s long legs froze, but Doctor Kendall left after greeting them.
Rodney yelled, “Your mouth is injured? No wonder you’re wearing a mask. Let me see.” As he spoke, Rodney reached out to grab Chester’s arm, but Chester caught his wrist immediately.
“What are you doing? Let go. I’m just concerned about you as a brother, ” Rodney yelled.
Chester’s dark eyes behind his glasses became increasingly gloomy.
Mireya frowned and quickly pulled Rodney. “He doesn’t want you to see. Why do you care so much? Young Master Jewell cares about his reputation. “
Rodney wanted to look, but when he saw the soft little hand holding his left hand, he felt like floating.
Her hand was so small and slender. It was much smoother than his.
Just as he wanted to grasp her hand, Mireya quickly withdrew.
Rodney pursed his lips in dissatisfaction. Next to them, Chester was speechless as he saw the scene. Was there a need to act like that? It was as if he never touched a woman before. Just touching his hand made him fall into a daze.
“Hey, Chester, how did your mouth get hurt?” Rodney came to his senses and joked casually. “Was it done by a woman?”
” It’s none of your business. We’re at the OB-GYN Department,” Chester stopped in his tracks.
Rodney was about to follow Mireya in, but he was stopped by the intern at the door. “Men can’t go in.”
He could only wait outside sullenly.
After Mireya went in, Chester gave him a sideways glance and saw his nervous expression. “You’re very concerned about her now.”
“We’re married, after all, and she’s pregnant with my child. I really want to live a grounded life, ” Rodney said meaningfully.
“You’ve let go of Sarah?” Chester asked.
Rodney’s expression stiffened. After a moment, he said stiffly, ” Sarah isn’t worthy of my care at all. The ten years that I spent protecting her went to sh*t. In the future, I want to be responsible for my family. The feelings between Mireya and I can also be cultivated. In the past, I only had Sarah in my heart and couldn’t see the goodness of other women at all, but now, I feel that… she’s actually… quite good.”
She was just a little too fierce, and if he did not look after her properly, she might possibly end up cuckolding him.
Of course, he did not say that to Chester. Men needed to maintain their egos.
“By the way, seriously, what happened to your mouth?” Rodney asked suspiciously, “Were you bitten by a woman?”
Chester was quiet.
Seeing him silent, Rodney became excited. “Cindy definitely doesn’t have the guts to do that. It was Eliza, right?”
“You wait here. I’m going to work,” Chester said as he turned to leave.
Rodney refused to give up and grabbed him. “Come on, spill the tea.”
“Get lost. You’d better not mention that woman to me again.” Chester flung him away in annoyance and walked away with dark eyes.
Rodney clicked his tongue and raised his eyebrows. I t was the first time he saw Chester so angry at a woman. It seemed that there was something going on.
“Where’s Young Master Jewell?” Mireya suddenly came out from inside with a medical record in her hands.
“He left.” Rodney grinned and said, “Guess who bit his lips.”
Mireya.” “
“I’m guessing it was Eliza.” Rodney cackled. “I never thought I’d see the day.”
Mireya immediately understood and snorted, ” Eliza’s trick isn’t bad. If anyone dares to forcefully kiss me in the future, I can learn from her.”
Rodney. ” “
If he had known, he would not have told her.
“Go pay the bill,” Mireya shoved the consultation card into his hand. “You can use your phone to link your account.”
“You should have linked your account since the previous checkups. ” Rodney refused to do it. It was too troublesome to link the account to his phone. He wanted to be lazy.
Mireya looked at him with a fake smile on her face. “I did, but since you want to acknowledge the child, why would I need you if you’re not even willing to pay with your phone?”
“…It’s my fault. I’ll pay right now,” Rodney felt like biting his tongue off.
He linked the consultation card to his phone clumsily according to the instructions on the wall about the mobile payment.
After paying the bill, he accompanied Mireya for a blood test.
Seeing so much blood being drawn, he began to feel annoyed. “Why do you need to draw so much blood for a prenatal test?”
The nurse who was drawing Mireya’s blood gave him an innocent look. “It’s necessary. As the baby grows older, more screening tests are needed to ensure that the baby and the mother are healthy and safe.”
Rodney pursed his thin lips. Only after the blood test was over did he say to Mireya seriously, “I’m going to buy a chicken and cook you some broth to help replenish your blood.”
Mireya cast a confused look at him. “Thank you. Your words suddenly reminded me of my mom.” Rodney was speechless.
His words reminded her of her mom? What did it mean?
Was he like her mom?
Rodney, who was treating her tenderly, felt as though a bucket of cold water was poured over him. “Please keep your mouth shut.”
“How dare you ask me to shut my mouth,” Mireya’s eyes narrowed.
“No. I feel that… You really deserved to be single for many years, ” Rodney teased her.
Mireya, who had indeed been single for many years, was furious instantly. “What gives you the right to insult me? You deserved to be single for over ten years too. At least I wasn’t single for as long as you did.”
“That’s because I’m older, okay?”
“It’s good that you know you’re old. It’s your honor to be able to marry such a pretty young woman like me,” Mireya mocked.
The nurse at the window stared at them. “If you guys want to argue, please move to the other side and do it there. There are a lot more people queueing here.”
Rodney and Mireya were stunned. They turned their heads around, only to find a long queue with seven o r eight people behind them. Everyone fixed their eyes on them as if they were watching a drama unfold.
An old lady smiled and said, “Enough. Stop arguing. I think the two of you are quite a good match. With your good looks, your baby must be beautiful.”
“Exactly. Since the man got the woman pregnant, it’s normal for the pregnant woman to be bad- tempered. My wife’s temper was even more explosive,” a man who had been in their shoes chimed in.
Those remarks made Rodney and Mireya flush with embarrassment.
In the end, Rodney swiftly bowed his head remorsefully. Then, he quickly dragged Mireya away and left.
When they were upstairs, he coughed lightly. “I’ve decided to put up with you from now on. I won’t argue with you anymore.”
“What do you mean? As if I wanted to argue with you. You were the one who attacked me first,”
Mireya disputed indignantly.
Rodney’s head ached a little. Mireya was already capable of arguing like a fighter before she was pregnant. Now, her argument skills had leveled up.
” Sorry. It was my fault. I shouldn’t have insulted you that way. In fact, I was quite fond of you when you were single. Otherwise, why would I have pursued you?” Rodney forced a smile weakly.
Only then did Mireya feel better. “It’s good that you’re aware.”
