Chapter 596 “Mr. Foster, congratulations. It’s a boy.” The head of the department pointed at the child’s body characteristics on the screen to Elliot.
Elliot swallowed his saliva and said hoarsely, “Let me have a look at his face.”
The head of the department immediately moved the scanner up. It was a pity the child had already turned around. At that moment, they could only see his side profile.
“I have saved the photo of his front face just now.” The head of the department tapped open the child’s photo to show Elliot. “Mr. Foster, your son looks just like you! It’s already so obvious at first 35 glance.”
Elliot looked at the child’s photo. His heart softened. This was the first time that he truly felt that the child was a complete living being. He suddenly understood why Avery was so angry previously when he got the doctors to give her medication. That was because she understood much earlier than him that the child was a living being.
“I’ll print the photo out for you later,” The head of the department said, “Let me have a look at how this child isee developing.”
Elliot nodded his head.
A moment later, the head of the department said, “The child is on the smaller side. The mother needs to increase her nutrition intake. She has to rest more and not overexertof herself.”
Elliot looked at Avery. Avery blushed a little. She got down from the bed and left. A moment later, Elliot walked out with the ultrasound scan.
They entered the lift without saying anything. Due to a lot of people in the hospital, the lift was rather68 crowded.
Elliot was afraid that Avery was squished, so he stood facing her, protecting her within him.
Avery could feel his gaze burning into her. She quickly lowered herza gaze.
Soon, the lift was on the ground floor. He naturally held her hand and led her away.
“Avery, the doctor said that the child is not growing too well.” Coming out of the lift, Elliot said, “It’s going to come out in three to four months. Why don’t you stop working for the time being! If you need money, I can give it to you.”
Avery retreated her hands from his grip. She looked at him. “The doctor did not ask me to stop working.”
“The doctor asked you to rest more. You are a doctor too…” Elliot grabbed her hand once more, not letting her go.
“I don’t think I need to stop working just because I’m pregnant,” Avery interrupted him and said, “I don’t think I’m feeling uncomfortable. If I’m not feeling uncomfortable, I can work as usual.”
The child was in her tummy. If she wanted to work, Elliot could do nothing about that.
“Next time when you leave the house, you have to tell me.” Elliot requested.
Avery found it hard to believe. “I’m a pregnant woman, not a prisoner under house arrest! I don’t need to report what I’m doing to you! Don’t try to threaten me with the child!”
Elliot furrowed his brows. “What do I need to do for you to understand that I’m caring for you, not harassing you!”
“Maybe other women would like your ways of so-called caring, but it’s not me.” Avery took her phone out and hailed a taxi.
“I’ll go back on my own. We’ll see each other at the next monthly checkup. Other than that, there is no need to contact each other.”
He said that she was not worthy of his love. He also said that he wanted the child in her tummy. At that thought, Avery could not accept his pretentious kindness!
If she did not have his child in her womb, he would not have cared for her.
Elliot looked at Avery vanishing within his sight. He clenched his fists tightly. She always had a way to make him suffer.
However, at that moment, other than suffering, he had an extra son. It was not as if he had nothing
When he returned to the office, he switched on his computer. Chelsea knocked on the door and entered.
“Elliot, I heard that you went for a checkup with Avery. How’s everything?” When Chelsea finished talking, she saw the ultrasound scan on the desk.
