Diana couldn’t help but feel that Cecilia’s mood today was a bit off.
It seemed like she was hiding something.
Diana thought about asking a few more questions, but decided to hold back. She believed that once Cecilia met
Noel, they could discuss their issues.
For now, she was content to accept the gift as a gesture of sisterhood while they were out shopping. She planned to
reciprocate in the future, although she still needed to figure out what to give.
As they reached the end of their shopping spree, Diana was indeed getting tired, and her lower abdomen felt tight.
She placed her hand on her belly, gently rubbing it up and down, and decided not to walk any further.
She found a bench to sit on, and urged Fanny and Cecilia to go to the restaurant without her.
“I’ll rest for a while,” she said, as she tried to wave them off.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFanny refused, saying, “You should have someone with you in case something happens. We don’t need to rush to
the restaurant; we can wait a bit.”
Cecilia agreed with her. They bought two cups of milk tea and shared them, considering that Diana had expended
more energy and needed to recover.
Diana also wanted to have some light snacks, so they had some snacks brought from the VIP lounge in the mall.
“This chestnut flavor is unexpectedly delicious,” Diana said after taking a few bites, becoming somewhat addicted.
“I never thought the mall would have such delicious things.”
Fanny nodded in agreement. “It’s really good, but I prefer the plum pastries. Next time we come, I’ll get some to
take home.”
“Those are quite sour,” Diana commented. With three experiences of pregnancy, as soon as she heard Fanny’s
words, alarm bells sounded in her mind. “Fanny, you’re not pregnant, are you?”
This remark caused Fanny to choke on her food, which got stuck in her throat. Cecilia quickly handed her a glass of
water and patted her on the back. Fanny had to drink the water to relieve her coughing fit.
Diana felt a bit embarrassed. “Did I startle you? My words were rather impolite, weren’t they?”
She was so used to being pregnant that whenever she saw someone craving sour foods, she thought of pregnant
women.
After Fanny stopped coughing, she shook her head and looked at Diana with a shocked expression. Gradually, a glint
of understanding appeared in her eyes.
“Apart from craving sour foods, do you also suddenly have a strong desire for something specific? Feeling restless if
you can’t have it, as if there are worms crawling all over you, and your taste preferences have changed?
Vegetables you used to love now disgust you, but you strangely want to eat green peppers, which you used to hate,
and you’re addicted to dishes like green pepper stir-fry…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFanny was still explaining various symptoms when Diana interrupted her, “Why do you need to think anymore?!
You’re pregnant! Your symptoms are identical to what I experienced during my pregnancy!”
Diana held Fanny’s hand, genuinely happy for her. “Have you done it yet?”
Fanny was bewildered. “Done what?”
Diana clarified, “A pregnancy test. One line means not pregnant, and two lines means you are. How are you?”
“No, I haven’t done it.” Fanny shook her head. Gradually, a sense of resistance emerged in her eyes. “I can’t be
pregnant.”
Suddenly, she seemed to have found the reason for her symptoms.
“Our company’s currently filming a highly anticipated drama. Although I’m not the lead, I’ve memorized all the lines
for every actor to ensure the best performance. I’m also very familiar with the plot, and the female lead in the
story is pregnant. It’s possible that I’m experiencing these pregnancy symptoms because of that.”
Fanny remembered a term she had come across before. “There’s a saying called false pregnancy, isn’t there?”
That was indeed a possibility.
