"Anyway." Evangeline glanced at her watch. "It's four o'clock. By the time we get there, the doctors will have clocked out. Who's going to see me?"
"Don't you worry about that! Just bring yourself and that belly of yours along with me!"
Walter did not wait for a reply. He grabbed Evangeline's wrist, bundled her into the car, and even buckled
her in.
His caring gesture did not warm her heart in the slightest.
Walter was trapping himself, and he knew it. With the car humming to life, he hit the hands-free button and dialed out.
"I need a doctor who can do a pregnancy check, now."
The voice that answered was a mix of charm and warmth, aged but caring, "Of course, Mr. Walter Gordon. When will you be here? I'll make sure everything's ready for you..."
"Give me ten minutes,' said Walter, checking the time.
After he hung up, Evangeline bit her lip, at a loss for words.
She was aware of the Gordon family's clout in Avalon City-they could make things happen with a snap of their fingers. However, she had not expected Walter to wield his family's influence like this.
A pregnancy test was not urgent, and it could be done at any time. Why insist at this moment, after hours?
"Walter, for the last time, I'm just feeling queasy, not pregnant. Can you let me go, please?"
Evangeline was not as shameless as Walter was, and she had a far lower tolerance for embarrassment than Walter.
"No way. Are you the doctor here? You say you're not pregnant, but I'm convinced you are! Let's do the math-it's been over a month since we first got together. It's a possibility, Isn't it?" Evangeline was floored. He had kept track of every detail, even the dates of their intimacy.
Truth be told, she was not sure about the pregnancy herself. They had not been careful, so it was a real possibility.
However, what about Yale and the rest? If they noticed she was not at the villa, would they lose their minds?
Evangeline paused, mulling over whether she should call Yale to fill him in on what was happening
However, Walter, clueless about her plan, jumped to conclusions when he saw her phone in hand. He figured she was about to let Alex know why she could not meet up with him.
In a huff, Walter snatched the phone from her grip, saying with a mix of concern and command, "You'll get this back after your checkup, okay?"
Evangeline shot him a look of irritation, but her eyes inadvertently drifted down to her still-flat stomach, her mind racing with new thoughts. Could there actually be a tiny life starting in there? She felt nothing, though. How could she be pregnant? She had dreamed of having Walter's baby, imagining a tiny version

of him growing inside her, bringing her so much joy.
However, faced with the possibility that her dreams might be coming true, she was suddenly afraid. The unknown about the baby sent her into a panic.
"Walter, what are we going to do if I'm really pregnant?" She had convinced herself she was ready to be a mom. Yet clearly, she was not as emotionally prepared as she thought, and she desperately needed to know how Walter felt about the baby.
