Chapter 744: Chapter 741: Have Him Get Checked Out, Too

Poppy Vance shook her head, a hint of sadness in her expression. "No. I want to ask, but I don’t dare. He’s so good to me right now, and I’m afraid asking will shatter the peace we have. But if I don’t ask, it’s always on my mind. Clara, I’m so conflicted."

Clara Grant smiled and said, "You know, a lot of misunderstandings happen because people keep things bottled up instead of talking about them. So, if something is bothering you and you can’t let it go, you should just ask about it face-to-face.

"If you keep worrying about it but are too afraid to ask, that issue could weigh on your heart for the rest of your life."

After speaking, she looked at Poppy Vance’s pensive expression and smiled again. "Like that thing you mentioned... as far as I know, it wasn’t Brother Jennings bringing another woman home. He was too drunk to drive that day, so he hired a designated driver. The woman you saw was just the driver who took him home."

"Really? How do you know?" Poppy Vance was both delighted and a little disbelieving.

"Of course it’s true. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Seth Quinn and Brother Sterling. They were with Brother Jennings that day. And if you still don’t believe me, I know the driver, so you can ask her too."

It was as if a great weight had been lifted from Poppy Vance’s heart. Her expression became incredibly relieved. "Clara, thank you so much. I’m so lucky I ran into you today. Otherwise, I don’t know how much longer I would have been agonizing over this.

"It seems that for two people to get along better, they really need to communicate about everything in a timely manner."

Clara Grant chuckled. "Alright, now you can go get your marriage license with Brother Jennings without any worries."

Poppy Vance pictured herself and Linden Jennings getting their license and becoming husband and wife, and she couldn’t help but break into a very happy smile.

Seeing her smile, Clara Grant smiled too.

"What’s making you two so happy?" Linden Jennings asked, having returned with water and seeing their joyful expressions.

"It’s nothing," Poppy Vance answered quickly, taking the bottle of water he handed her, its cap already opened.

As she spoke, she gave Clara Grant a playful wink. Clara just smiled without saying a word.

"Oh, right, Clara," Poppy Vance said after taking a sip of water. She had just remembered something and turned to ask Clara Grant, "I forgot to ask, what are you doing here?"

"Oh? Uh, I..." For a moment, Clara Grant didn’t know how to answer.

"Ah, Clara, you’re not... pregnant too, are you?"

"How could I be? No." ’I don’t even know if I want to keep this baby yet, so I don’t want anyone else to know I’m pregnant.’

"Then what are you doing in the OB-GYN department?"

"I... I just feel like I’ve been married to Seth Quinn for so long... I wanted to ask the doctor... why I haven’t gotten pregnant yet..." Clara Grant blurted out the excuse in a panic. After she said it, she was sweating bullets internally.

’As if I’m so desperate to get pregnant that I’d make a special trip to ask a doctor!’

Poppy Vance frowned, about to say more, but a nurse called her name.

Clara Grant quickly helped Poppy Vance to her feet. "Poppy, it’s your turn for your check-up. You guys should go ahead. I’m going to leave now. I’ll come see you when I have time, and we can talk more then."

Poppy Vance had no choice but to nod. "Clara, it’s not convenient for me to run around with this big belly. You have to come visit me more often when you’re free, so I don’t get bored to death being stuck at home alone all day."

"Okay, I’ll definitely come see you when I have time. Now, go on."

Poppy Vance took a couple of steps, then stopped and turned back to her, smiling. "Clara, you have to remember that too, okay? Don’t keep things bottled up. You have to communicate.

"You think not getting pregnant after all this time is just your problem, but what if it’s not? You should talk to Brother Quinn and have him get checked out too."
