Eva's thoughts were a whirlpool of panic and fear, the weight of the moment sinking deeper with every passing second.
When they arrived, Lucian didn't hesitate. He rushed her inside, speaking urgently with the staff. A few minutes later, they were in an examination room. The tests were brief but thorough, and soon the door opened again.
An elderly woman in a white coat entered, her warm smile fading as she looked at the two of them. She seemed to recognize Lucian immediately. "Ah, Mr. Lucian," she said, her voice full of respect. "It's good to see you. What brings you here today?"
Lucian's jaw tightened. "My wife isn't feeling well. I need a checkup for her—immediately."
The doctor nodded and took Eva's vitals. After a few moments, she returned with the results, her face full of professional calm. "Well, Mr. Lucian, it's a happy occasion. Your wife is pregnant."
