With that, he made his way to the doctor's office to get the result.
The doctor handed over the ultrasound report and cautioned Mitchel, “Your wife
is 15 weeks pregnant, but the fetus’ development is slower than we'd like. It's
important you take excellent care of her, so both the mom and baby get the
nutrients they need.”
Dumbstruck, Mitchel looked the doctor in the eye and asked, “Wait. How far
along is she again?”
The intensity of Mitchel's gaze made the doctor uneasy. The doctor quickly
glanced at the report again and stuttered, “Fifteen weeks...”
Mitchel unconsciously clenched his fists, and disbelief washed over his good-
looking face.
How could Raegan be 15 weeks pregnant?
Mitchel had a vivid memory. He had been swamped with work at the overseas
branch and had not been intimate with Raegan for an entire month.

Back in the ward, Luciana was spooning some soup to Raegan. As Mitchel
walked in, she set the bowl aside and asked, “Did you get the result?”
“Yeah, I did,” Mitchel answered, his voice chilly and tinged with sadness.
Luciana did not dwell on his mood, though. Excited, she stood up from her seat
too quickly, which made her head spin. Thankfully, Mitchel caught her just in time.
Luciana’s condition had been far from ideal, especially because she had been
going through hoops to be by Raegan’s side. Therefore, Mitchel arranged for
someone to take Luciana home so she could rest.
However, Luciana refused to go back and insisted, “I have to be here to take care
of Raegan.”
“Mom, I'll take it from here,” Mitchel asserted.
Luciana hoped Mitchel and Raegan would reconcile, so she said nothing more
and left the room.
But before she walked out of the door, Mitchel said to her, “Mom, let's keep the
news about Raegan’s pregnancy from my grandpa for now.”
“Why?” Luciana queried, taken aback.
“He would be thrilled to know he’s going to be a great-grandfather soon.”
“Let's just wait until Raegan’s condition is more stable.”
Luciana was hesitant for a while. Considering that Raegan was still early in her
pregnancy, Mitchel’s request seemed reasonable. At the thought of this, she gave
a nod and left.
Meanwhile, Raegan was puzzled. She had assumed Mitchel would want to share
the news with Kyler, especially since Kyler would likely intervene to prevent them
from getting a divorce.
She could not bear the thought of making Kyler depressed by knowing about
their upcoming divorce.
Yet, she never expected Mitchel would ask Luciana to keep the pregnancy a
secret from Kyler.
At this moment, she could not tell what was going on in Mitchel's mind.
While she was engrossed in her thoughts, Mitchel approached her.
