Chapter 224: A Twin Pregnancy?
"We can go to your Obstetrician and have it checked. Let us do that before you get discharged?" the bodyguard asked Mu Lan.
"Hmmm," Mu Lan nodded.
Ken accompanied Mu Lan to the right wing where the Doctors’ clinics were. The doctor placed a stethoscope on Mu Lan’s bulging tummy.
"I only hear one heartbeat. You are a little over six months pregnant. At this stage, it is impossible to miss a twin pregnancy. We just had your ultrasound and even the ultrasound showed only one baby." the doctor explained patiently. "Your baby is very active and growing bigger. Other than her feet and hands, she is also hitting you with her knees and elbows."
Mu Lan laughed heartily then she felt ashamed. "Yeah, I guess she is just too active. Thank you, Doctor. We will be on our way. Sorry to trouble you."
"Come back after a month." The doctor said with an amused look on her face.
Ken offered the crook of his arm as her support. When they left the clinic, there were still not too many patients in the waiting area. Mu Lan signed with relief. She will not feel jealous because she doesn’t have a husband to accompany her. She could pretend that the bodyguard walking beside her was her husband.
While walking in the corridor, they came across a young couple. The woman’s belly was as big as a watermelon. It was obvious that her due date was just around the corner. The man beside him looked solemn and they did not look like a couple at all but two strangers who happened to walk alongside each other.
The woman looked at Mu Lan with obvious envy in her eyes. Her gaze darted to the tall man beside her who was looking at Mu Lan with gentleness. It was obvious that he loved his wife judging by the way he looked at her.
