Chapter 207: Adorable Parasite
Marcella held Tony’s hand and led him inside the doctor’s office. She was not stressed seeing Tony’s face. He was wind up with stress and both of them couldn’t be stressed. She needed to comfort him.
Seeing his tense side profile, her lips curved up. He was someone who could face any loss with grit and courage. He was the most rational person she knew and he rarely leaves way for his heart to rule his mind.
This issue, however, involved her. Therefore, his rationality flew away leaving him a mess.
Love is weird. It makes stupid out of the smartest people.
"It’ll be fine, honey,’’ she whispered in his ear.
’Mrs. Crawford got it, I guess," the doctor smiled widely as he gestured for them to take their seat.
Marcella didn’t have a tiny clue as to what the doctor was saying and she smiled awkwardly. The reason for her happiness was entirely different but the doctor didn’t have to know that.
"What is it?" Tony looked at her and then at the doctor as he didn’t understand why the both of them were smiling.
Is having a parasite something to be happy about?
"Your wife has a parasite residing in her womb, Mr. Crawford," the doctor clarified. "The parasite will get all the nutrients from her blood and grow, altering her physique. When it has grown, it will come out by itself..."
The doctor teased Tony maybe because he enjoyed the bewilderment on his face.
Marcella got it though. She placed her hand on her belly.
