Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

Chapter 1271
Clive felt terrible seeing his wife in pain and had gone as far as to suggest an abortion to alleviate her pain.
Jasmine had heard of husbands who doted on their wives, but this was the first time she had ever heard of a husband who
suggested something as drastic as abortion as a solution.
Elisa said, "Of course she's not going to get an abortion! She thinks it's a ridiculous suggestion, understandably so, but that
doesn’t stop my brother from trying to persuade her to get an abortion. He keeps harping about ever since she got pregnant, she
hardly had any appetite at all, and would regularly throw up anything she ate, even vomiting bile at one point.
"She’s lost a lot of weight and it’s causing my brother a lot of stress. Right now, my parents are at home every day to help keep
an eye on her because they're worried that one of these days, my brother is going to force her to go to a hospital for an
abortion."
That explained why Mrs. Stone had not been seen lately.
Jasmine expressed her concerns, "Why aren't you guys taking her to the hospital if she’s been throwing up so much?"
"We did, the doctor prescribed some medicine but it doesn't seem to be effective. She's currently pretty much strapped to the
bed all day to conserve energy. They said she had a low progesterone count. So there you have it, being a mother sure isn't
easy."
She admired all the mothers around the world.
Jasmine noted, "Anyway, Seren usually just goes to some nearby supermarket to get her groceries and should be back soon.
When she comes back, you can ask her to let you take Sonny back home. He's a wonderful and smart boy. I'm sure your brother
will change his mind once he sees the boy."
"Well, I sure hope so too. I already asked for Liberty*s permission as well. The moment I told her what my brother had been
planning to do, she was furious and began scolding my brother. She mentioned that she was going to pay a visit after she
finished up with work."
Everyone was overjoyed when they found out that Alice was with child.

The Hunt sisters were very thoughtful and gave her many supplements to help with the pregnancy. The Yorks did the same and
did not cheap out on gifts.
Nobody foresaw that Alice would go through such a difficult pregnancy.
"They say that pregnant women like to eat sour food. Why don't you buy something sour for her and see if it helps with her
vomiting?"
Elisa shook her head. "That’s not going to help her. It doesn't matter what she eats, she's still going to throw them up regardless.
Usually, she starts vomiting shortly after she eats.
"She does have the appetite for food, only she ends up throwing up anyway."
After witnessing her sister-in-law's harrowing pregnancy, Elisa, an unmarried woman, found herself traumatized by it.
Why did men not have to bear the pains of pregnancy?
Jasmine had run out of advice to give as she was very much out of her depth since she had never been married, much less had
a child before.
What were they supposed to do if even the medicine prescribed by the doctor was useless?
Elisa waited for a while and soon, Serenity returned with Sonny.
After being told the reason for Elisa's visit today. Serenity grew frantic and quickly called Zachary and gave him the bad news
that she was not going to deliver lunch for him today. She told him to grab lunch at Wiltspoon Hotel instead.
She needed to pay a visit to Elisa's home.
Zachary expressed somberly, "Alright, but don't forget about me tonight."
Serenity chuckled and assured her, "Don't you worry, we have the rest of our lives to spend together."
This made Zachary feel better.
After they ended the call, Zachary gave Clive a stern talking to. If not for Clive's dramatic reaction, Serenity would not have had
to change her plans and pay an emergency visit to the Stones.

Serenity took Sonny with her and when she was told that her sister was planning to join them, she picked Liberty up on the way.
With that, the crew followed Elisa to the Stones' villa.
They passed by Remy's villa which was still under renovation and noticed Remy's car parked outside. Elisa casually mentioned
to Serenity, "Remy comes by pretty often to check on the renovation progress."
If it was her, she would have assigned such menial tasks to someone else instead of having to waste her time coming here every
day.
Serenity remarked thoughtfully, "Remy attaches a lot of importance to this house, so it makes sense that he wants to keep an
eye on the progress in person. Renovation is a very delicate process that takes a lot of time, so it's better for him to supervise in
person. That way, he can immediately make arrangements when things go wrong to save time and money in the long run."
