Chapter 291 - 298: The Second Time
"Joanne, mom wants to ask if you went for the check-up?" Helen Wilson asked lovingly, holding her daughter’s hands.
Helen responded subconsciously, "Not yet."
Her mom immediately glared at her and said, "How could that be? You must go for a check-up."
"No need, no need!" Helen hurriedly exclaimed. She wasn’t actually pregnant; if she went for a check-up, her lie would be exposed.
"How could you not need it? The early stage of pregnancy is very important, especially the first three months. If not handled well, it’s easy to have a miscarriage."
Helen felt miserable inside, initially only thought of deceiving her parents, forgetting about the lie she had spun. Now wanting to continue the deception, she couldn’t think of a suitable reason at the moment, mainly because she had absolutely no experience in this regard.
James Brown came out from the kitchen with a dish at this moment and said, "Look at you, I told you to clear things up with your uncle and aunt early on, but you insisted on not doing so, and now you have to lie to cover it up."
Helen was startled and stared wide-eyed at James Brown, while her parents looked at him with confusion at this moment.
James Brown said with a smile, "Uncle, aunt, you haven’t eaten much all day, come over to eat. I’ll have a couple of drinks with uncle and explain everything during the meal."
