Chapter 572\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sydney could not argue with that. She kept her head down and drank her soup. She tried to hide her guilt. \u201cI told Grandma that the baby is a girl, and she got especially happy.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Agatha did adore little girls, but Julian still looked skeptical. \u201cJust that?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Under his gaze, Sydney grew even more uneasy. She opened her mouth to confess, then her abdomen tightened. A dull ache followed. She sucked in a sharp breath and frowned.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Julian saw her touch her stomach and shot to his feet, reaching for her. \u201cWhat is it? Does your stomach hurt?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cA little.\u201d Sydney was a doctor, but this was still her first pregnancy. Panic flickered through her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Julian bent down and lifted her into his arms. He made his decision at once. \u201cWe are going to the hospital.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, wait. Just wait a moment.\u201d She had spent the entire day at the hospital and did not want to put him through more worry,\u201d Put me on the sofa first. Let me check my pulse.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
In his urgency, Julian had forgotten that she was a doctor. After a short pause, he set her down with care. He had always trusted her medical skills. That included Eliana\u2019s poisoning. He knew that if Sydney could not solve it, then even when Alan returned tomorrow, the outcome would likely stay the same.\u00a0<\/p>\n
There was nothing more to it. Alan had poured everything into teaching Sydney. He had held nothing back. Sydney was gifted and mastered everything with ease. Given time and experience, she would surpass her mentor.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sydney finished taking her pulse. She looked at the man whose face had gone tight with worry and smiled. \u201cWhy are you so tense? Pregnancy lasts nine months. Feeling uncomfortable once in a while is normal.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI am not worried about the one in your stomach.\u201d Julian glanced at her. Her smile told him it was nothing serious, and his tone eased. \u201cI am worried about your body.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
After learning about her pregnancy, Julian had asked Marcus about many things. Miscarrying at this stage would injure her badly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The pain eased. Sydney lifted her head and fixed him with her clear gaze. She smiled. \u201cNot worried about the baby at all?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Julian avoided her eyes and looked to the side. He tried to sound casual. \u201cJust a little.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The child was not his. Yet these days of constant closeness had changed him. Watching the little life grow inside the woman he loved stirred something in him. He found himself looking forward to its arrival.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Still, admitting that he cared felt undignified. It felt like rushing to act like a happy father.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sydney shot him a sideways glance. She saw through his stubbornness and softness. \u201cThe baby and I are both fine. My emotions were a bit unstable today.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Eliana was half a mother to her. Seeing her lie motionless on the bed, poisoned by something so complex, her life hanging by a thread, left Sydney unable to calm her thoughts.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Julian understood this too. He sat beside her and drew her into his arms. \u201cI promise you. Nothing will happen to Eliana. Do not let your mind run wild.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cDid you get some progress from Dr. Vermont\u2019s side?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
While eating earlier, Sydney had noticed several new messages on his phone. She had assumed there was news.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Julian answered with a question. \u201cYou should worry about your own health first. Do you need anything to stabilize the pregnancy?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo.\u201d Sydney shook her head.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Polly always asked her the night before what she wanted to eat and adjusted the meals. Sydney asked her each day to add pregnancy-supporting herbs to the soup.\u00a0<\/p>\n

After that, she only needed to keep her emotions steady.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Caleb returned to the Hampton estate and went to the housekeeper to ask for the item Megan had sent.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Since Megan had not delivered it herself, the housekeeper hesitate before bringing it out. \u201cPlease see if this is it.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adeline had been eating in the dining room. She heard the commoon and walked over with a bright smile. \u201cThe Hutton family\u2019s third heiress sent that?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
If Megan became her daughter-in-law, that would be ideal. She would be far better than Penelope, who flirted with anyone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cIt has nothing to do with you.\u201d Caleb did not want to talk to her.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He glanced at the small black medicine bottle inside the kraft pape bag, closed it, and said in a cool tone, \u201cI have something to do. I am leaving.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
