Chapter 740
Once they were inside the doctor’s office, Fia pulled Conrad over. Once he was close enough, she whispered, “Can
you please not tell so many people to come out next time? It’s very embarrassing.”
Conrad disagreed and said, “This is a matter of life and death. We need all the specialists, and it has to be fast!”
Fia was speechless. However, this was not something that they could come to an agreement now, so she decided to
speak to him later at home.
Conrad accompanied Fia all the way. Fia held one of his hands while his other hand was curled into a fist.
While he looked calm, he was extremely nervous inside.
He knew that having children was the ghost that haunted Fia’s heart.
To him, the child meant more to him than just simple joy. The child was also the key to erasing their dark past.

Conrad asked all the specialists to run their battery of tests on her.
Fia was quite healthy. She wasn’t sick, so only the Gynecology department was left in the end.
After the doctors had completed their tasks, the director let them return to their posts.
Meanwhile, the gynecology specialist accompanied them until the end as they waited for the results.
Half an hour later, they received some reports. The specialist eyed at the result and she frowned deeply.
“How’s the result?” Fia couldn’t help but stand up and nervously asked, “Am I pregnant?”
“The result shows…” The specialist glanced at Conrad. She was a bit afraid to answer him.
Fia turned around and looked at Conrad. “Stop making your face so scary. You’ll scare her.”
“I’m not. This is what I look like all along,” Conrad said as he massaged his face and tried his best to make himself
look gentle.
“Alright, chop chop! Don’t delay it anymore!” The director couldn’t help but urge her.
The doctor took a deep breath and got closer before whispering, “Sonar doesn’t show the gestational sac, but the
blood test came back showing that the chorionic gonadotropin, also known as hCG, has a slight increase.”
“English!” Conrad said fiercely.
The doctor closed her eyes and quickly said, “Meaning that she’s in the early stages of pregnancy. She’s pregnant!”
There was joy in Fia’s eyes. “Really?!”
“Yes,” the doctor said as she opened her eyes. Then, she said with fear in her voice, “However,
we detected a nodule when we checked your breasts.”
Conrad’s expression froze and he was just about to say something when the doctor cut in and said, “It’s not
anything serious. From the looks of it, it’s not fibroadenomas or intraductal papilloma. A minor nodule like this
doesn’t need any special treatment. If there’s minor pain, some painkillers will do.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“…” Fia remained silent. As a woman, she had read plenty of information on how her body would react after she
became pregnant. She had also read plenty about nodules.
However, Conrad didn’t know about it, and he asked anxiously, “How is it formed? Can it be cured?”
The specialist said, “It’s a biological reaction caused by the sudden increase in estrogen and progestogen. Mrs.
Maxwell’s condition is very minor, so it’s nothing.”
Conrad looked at the director. “Is she right about this?”
The director quickly nodded. “She’s right. It’s nothing to be worried about!”
Conrad relaxed somewhat and said, “Is there anything that we need to pay attention to?”
The doctor carefully said, “With Mrs. Maxwell’s condition, she needs to maintain a good mood and avoid eating
anything high in calories or take exogenous hormone supplements.
Fia suddenly asked, “As my pregnancy progresses, will it grow larger?”
The doctor’s hand that was holding the results visibly trembled. “Yes, it will. That’s why you must take periodic tests
to prevent it from becoming worse.”
Conrad frowned. “Why would it grow larger as her pregnancy progresses?”
