Chapter 276: Congratulations, Aiden
Of course, those words were screamed out by Annalise, who was the only supporter of Emmeline keeping the baby. Annalise had stormed to the door and proceeded to block it with her own body. She tilted her head up challengingly at all of them.
"If you want to get a doctor, you’d have to get through me!" Annalise cried out, "Emmeline, are you going to step over my corpse just so that you can toss away your unborn child?"
Emmeline paused. She never expected her mother to go this far in protest.
"Mom, don’t be ridiculous and get away from the door," Emmeline said. "You know keeping this baby would be nothing but nonsense. Look at the father of my child!" She pointed to Aiden. "He still believes pineapples cause abortions! Any child with his brains would be ruined from the start. I cannot accept this."
"You say like I want a kid that comes from you," Aiden retorted. "They’d probably scream my ears off!"
Before the both of them could devolve into petty bickering, there was a knock at the door before someone pushed it open, causing Annalise to stumble and fall.
It was the doctor, and she had an envelope in her hand. It wasn’t Doctor Michelle. But whoever she was, she was unprepared for the welcome she would receive the moment she entered the room.
"Oh dear, are you alright?" the doctor asked, wanting to help Annalise up, but Aiden all but leapt to her side and pulled her into the room, expertly side-stepping Annalise who was still on the floor to drag her to Emmeline’s side.
Annalise spluttered angrily and got up on her own.
