Chapter 816: Chapter 816: A Strong Feeling of Being Pregnant

Annabelle Linton looked at him with a complicated expression, at a loss for words.

Leona Grant glared back, his eyes fierce. "What are you looking at? There’s no room for negotiation on this!"

She really didn’t know how to respond. "You just woke up," she said numbly. "Shouldn’t you eat something first?"

"Eat what? My wife is about to be gone, and you want me to eat? What’s more important, a meal or my wife and kids?!"

Annabelle was speechless. Did he really have to be this intense?

Leona used his subsequent actions to prove that yes, he absolutely did.

By the time their intimate session drew to a close, dawn was already breaking. Annabelle was half-asleep when a sudden wave of nausea hit her. She immediately bolted for the bathroom.

Once there, she only dry-heaved a few times, bringing nothing up. After rinsing her mouth, she leaned against the sink and stared at her reflection in the mirror. After a moment, she closed her eyes and prepared to go back to bed.

But just as she turned around, she caught sight of a bloodstain on her white silk bathrobe in the mirror. Thinking her eyes were playing tricks on her, she took a second look.

The crimson stain stood out starkly against the white fabric.

Annabelle stood frozen in confusion. Suddenly, a chaotic flood of disjointed thoughts and inexplicable memories surged into her mind all at once.

Why was she bleeding? It wasn’t time for her period.

Wait! Her face paled abruptly. It wasn’t time for her period because she was already nearly two weeks late!

With her mind preoccupied lately, she hadn’t even noticed. Since puberty, her cycle had never once been delayed or skipped. Dry heaving. A missed period. And now that she thought about it, she had completely lost her appetite over the past couple of days. She had chalked the nausea and lack of appetite up to a viral infection, but it seemed she had been wrong.

Panic seized her in the next second. She hurriedly pulled off her underwear to inspect the blood. Only when she saw there were no small clots or tissue did she let out a breath of relief.

If her intuition was right, she was pregnant.

While the nausea and poor appetite could easily have been caused by a virus or stress, and her delayed period could be a side effect of all the experimental drugs she had been taking recently, the pieces were fitting together too well. Despite the other logical explanations, Annabelle just knew she was pregnant. The feeling was overwhelming.

As for the bleeding, it was because Leona had been far too rough with her tonight.

In her previous life, she had been pregnant once, and it had felt exactly like this.

"Baby, is it you? Did you reincarnate along with Mommy?" she thought.

A whirlwind of mixed emotions washed over Annabelle.

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK!

Her thoughts were abruptly interrupted by Leona pounding on the bathroom door. "Annabelle, why have you been in there so long? Did something happen?"

He had woken up the moment she got out of bed, and she had been in there for over ten minutes. She never took this long just to use the toilet, and he had already helped her bathe earlier. Naturally, he was starting to worry.

Hearing his voice made her tense up.

Right now, this was all just speculation. She had no solid proof. If she told him and it turned out to be a false alarm, he would be devastated. Besides, she was planning to leave in a while anyway. If she really was pregnant, should she even tell him?

After weighing her options, Annabelle decided to keep it a secret for now.
