Marrying A Secret Zillionaire: Happy Ever After Novel

Chapter 509: The doctor began by reviewing the report, then looked up at Linsey and inquired, "You're married, aren't you? Why didn't your husband accompany you today?"

Linsey explained, "He's away on business. He doesn't even know I'm here."

As the doctor sifted through the pages of the report, her expression turned grave.

"This…" Linsey's pulse quickened upon observing the change in the doctor's face. "What is it, Doctor? Is there something wrong?"

She wondered if her recent symptoms might indicate an illness.

Had her recent dizziness and nausea been symptoms of something serious?

Linsey's mind was instantly overwhelmed with alarming thoughts.

The possibility of receiving a diagnosis for a terminal illness caused her heart to plummet.

Seeing Linsey on the verge of panic, the doctor quickly reassured her. "No, no, you've got it wrong."

Breaking into a smile, the doctor said, "Congratulations, you're pregnant."

For a moment, Linsey was too shocked to move. "Could you repeat that, Doctor?"

The doctor repeated, "Congratulations. You're pregnant. According to the test, you are about five weeks along."

Linsey's thoughts came to a halt at that moment.

She was expecting! The doctor had just confirmed her pregnancy!

Taking a deep breath, Linsey sought confirmation, "Doctor, is this certain? Am I truly expecting?"

The doctor affirmed without hesitation. "Yes, the results are conclusive. You are definitely pregnant."

A smile spread across Linsey's face.

She had been pregnant for five weeks, which meant conception had likely occurred right after her last menstrual cycle.

That explained why her period was late. That explained the exhaustion and nausea she had been feeling.

She was going to be a mom!

Realization dawned, and Linsey's eyes welled up with tears of joy.

She instinctively bowed her head and softly touched her stomach, her touch gentle as if she were protecting something precious.

Soon, Linsey chuckled at her own actions.

The baby was roughly the size of a pea; she couldn't possibly feel its presence yet.

The doctor shared a warm smile at Linsey's happiness but quickly adopted a more serious demeanor. "However, there is another concern in your test results."

At the doctor's mention of a concern, Linsey's expression immediately shifted to one of worry. "What's the problem, Doctor?" she inquired with a hint of fear in her voice.

Could there be an issue with the baby's health?

As she waited for the doctor's response, Linsey's mind was flooded with concerns.

She had been cautious with her health lately, avoiding alcohol and caffeine.

She reasoned that the pregnancy test results should have shown no issues.

The possibility that something might be wrong with her much-desired baby sent her heart into a flutter.

She was unable to contemplate the potential complications…

The doctor saw Linsey's distress and quickly offered comfort.

"Don't worry, your baby is perfectly healthy, and so are you," the doctor reassured her. "However, we've noticed that your uterine lining is a bit thinner than we'd like. This condition, if you decided to end the pregnancy, could complicate future attempts to conceive."
