SWNOVELS Chapter 1041 Tell Her You’re Pregnant
"Amanda, when will you have a baby? You've got married for several years, haven't you?" suddenly Jessica asked, "I've only seen you this time. Where is Stanford?" Everyone except Jessica knew what had happened to Amanda.
It was because both Kevin and she were quite old, others in the family were worried that they might not be able to stand the blow, so they had hidden the news from them.
That was why Jessica didn't know what Amanda had experienced. She still thought Amanda and Stanford were married.
She thought that they had been married for several years. They should have children now.
Amanda creased her eyebrows awkwardly. For a moment, she didn't know how to answer Jessica.
"Why are you silent? Have you fought?" Jessica widened her cloudy eyes to look at her.
"No, we haven't. He's pretty busy. Grandma, have a nap. It'll take us a few hours before reaching the destination." Amanda covered her with a blanket and let Jessica lean against her shoulder. Patting her on the shoulder, Amanda said, "You sent us to sleep in this way when we were little."
Jessica squinted, feeling a bit tired. "Yeah. With a blink, you all are grown up..."
As they chatted, Jessica became sleepy, gradually falling asleep while leaning against Amanda.
On the other side, when Joshua came back after seeing Amanda and Jessica off, he didn't go back to his company. Instead, he asked Matthew out.
"Dad, I want to ask you something about my company business." Joshua looked solemn. "Can we have a private talk, please?"
Since his son wanted to talk business with him, Matthew couldn't reject him, so he walked to the study with Joshua.
"What do you want to know?" he asked while sitting on the chair.
Joshua pulled his chair in front of him. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Dad, are you, or is my mother sick?"
Matthew was confused.
He wondered why suddenly Joshua asked him such a question.
"Last night, I saw you guys washing the bedsheet. Was it stained with something that embarrassed you and can't be told to us? So you wanted to wash it so late at night." Matthew frowned and asked, "What embarrassing things?"
"Well... It might be because of some diseases for the old... Then it could..."
Joshua didn't make it straightforward, but Matthew understood what he was saying. Then, he answered, "Ehn..."
"So, was it you or my mother?" asked Joshua nervously.
He felt upset no matter who it was.
"It was your mother." Matthew slightly looked away to dodge his son's gaze.
Joshua was worried. "Has she checked up in the hospital?"
"Not yet. Why don't you take her to the hospital today?" Matthew suggested.
Dolores was still angry with him. Last night, she refused to talk to him. Today, she would have lunch with Charles. Thinking of that, Matthew was quite angry.
Hence, he wanted to stop her by using Joshua.
In that case, she wouldn't be able to have lunch with Charles.
Matthew knew that he shouldn't be jealous at his age, but he felt quite unhappy as soon as thinking about Charles. Charles had married already, but he still thought about the woman he loved. That truly disgusted Matthew.
"Don't tell her so directly. Or she wouldn't be willing to go with you. You should make an excuse first and take her there. Then let her have an overall checkup by the way." Matthew had already thought about the method for Joshua.
Joshua was enlightened. "I see. I'll take her to the hospital now."
He wanted her mother to get treatment as soon as possible since she was sick.
He called Bonnie to the bedroom. "Dad said it was Mom who is sick. We must make an excuse and take her to the hospital."
"What excuse shall we use?" Bonnie's heart skipped a beat when hearing the news.
Joshua looked at his wife, reaching out to pat her on her shoulder. "This glorious task would be on your shoulder, honey."
"Me?" Bonnie was taken aback, wondering what she could do.
"Yeah. You!" Joshua was quite certain. "You can tell Mom you don't feel well, or you're pregnant, so you want her to go to the hospital for a checkup. I don't think she would refuse."☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
