Chapter 178
“Really? Nagume stood up excitedly.
I followed her gaze to the door and saw Dylan walking in with Denton.
Denton was a native–born local Years of fishing at sea had made his body tall and strong.
“Denton Nagume ran over.
Irene, who had been nibbling on dried shrimp, also stumbled over on her short legs.
The family embraced each other. It was a very touching scene.
Dylan didn’t bother them but came up to me. “Yvonne, Denton said that he will deliver the goods tomorrow. He can take us
with him!”
He sounded a little excited.
“Okay,” I nodded, but my hand unconsciously caressed my lower abdomen.
Compared to going back to Elysiumville, I wanted to find a hospital to see if the baby was okay.
These days I had been eating well and sleeping well, and my body had not been abnormal, so I thought it should be fine.
Early the next morning, Dylan and I set off with Denton.
Before leaving. Nagume secretly handed me a gold bracelet, saying that Denton had given it to her and asked me to take it back to her parents.
I hugged her and thanked her for saving my life before leaving.
The place to deliver the goods was quite far away. We walked more than 30 miles with the fish.
Fortunately, what Denton and the others sold were all dried fish and shrimps. Otherwise, the fish would have died long ago.
It took us a lot of effort to reach our destination, and we waited for another two days before the consignee showed up. Denton gave him an extra basket of fish and pleaded with him for a long time before he agreed to take Dylan and me with
Finally, we got on a tricycle.
After another half day, we arrived at a small town.
Dylan sold some dried fish, exchanged it for some money, and took me to the clinic for a checkup.
The only ultrasound machine in the whole town was here. It was old and in disrepair, and the imaging was very blurry.
But at least we got a picture of the baby and confirmed that it was still safe in my belly.
The moment I got the report, I let out a long sigh of relief.
I thought, ‘As long as you’re okay, baby, I am fine.”
I didn’t tell Dylan about the pregnancy on the way there. He saw that I was getting a gynecological checkup, but he didn’t ask any further questions. When he saw the report in my hand, his eyes widened. “Yvonne! You… you’re pregnant?”
“Yes,” I nodded, my eyes softening unconsciously.
I gently caressed my belly, even though it was still as flat as ever and I couldn’t feel the baby at all.
Chapter 175
Soon, the baby would slowly grow up.
It was a truly wonderful feeling
hat I didn’t expect was that Dylan was even more excited than I was. “Yvonne, why didn’t you tell me sooner? I haven’t been ing good care of you these past few days! I hope the baby didn’t get hurt!”
I saw tears glistening in his eyes, and I couldn’t help but be a little surprised. “Dylan..
“Don’t worry, I will definitely take good care of you and the baby!” he quickly came back to his senses and said with certainty on his face.
After a brief pause, I nodded. “Okay.”
“Let’s find a place to eat first. We can’t let the baby go hungry!” Dylan said with a smile, his eyes as clean and pure as ever.
As soon as I got up to leave the clinic with him, the TV on the wall happened to be broadcasting on the international channel, which was all about foreign news and information.
It happened to mention Elysiumville. “In the past half month, Elysiumville has closed all its coastlines, and foreign trade has been temporarily suspended. According to reliable sources, it seems that Parker Group is searching for something at sea.” Dylan heard it and looked at me excitedly. “They must be looking for us!”
I frowned slightly. No matter what, the Parker family would at least pretend to look for me. Otherwise, people would look down on them.
This kind of trick couldn’t move me anymore.
I haven’t seen many sincere people along the way
Before I could say anything, the TV screen switched to Hayden’s face.
I froze in place.
The hostess’s voice was very pleasant. “It is reported that the CEO of Parker Group is getting remarried!”
These few words were like a bolt from the blue that exploded in my mind.
I thought, “Hayden…is getting remarried? They just said that they were doing a search at sea, and now he is already getting married. However, he has left Joanna. Who is he marrying now?”
In a flash, countless analyses and answers ran through my mind.
Dylan was also shocked.
“Yvonne, are you divorced?” He asked me incredulously.
I didn’t actually know the answer to this question.
When I was in Elysiumville, I asked Hayden for a divorce countless times, but he refused to sign the papers.
Now, not long after I left, he couldn’t wait to remarry.
I felt that it was technically over between us, though we didn’t sign anything.
“Yes.” I nodded immediately.
The shock in Dylan’s eyes grew. “Then does he know you’re pregnant…”
I shook my head.
Chapter 178
There was no need to let Hayden know about this child.
ince he had remarried, we should just go our separate ways.
Though we couldn’t remain a couple, I didn’t want us to be enemies.
Loving him had already exhausted all my strength. I was afraid I didn’t have the energy to hate him.
“That bastard” Dylan gritted his teeth and cursed fiercely.
I had rarely seen him so agitated.
In my memories, he was always warm and cheerful.
I even tried to comfort him, “Forget it, it’s all in the past. I have nothing to do with him now. It’s none of my business who he
marries.”
“But he hasn’t even found you yet! He doesn’t even know you’re alive, and he’s already happily married someone else? I feel so bad for you!” Dylan was angrier than I was.
I felt that not many people could handle this from Hayden if they were in my place.
The news didn’t reveal who he was marrying. I felt that it was probably to protect the woman’s identity.
Hayden had always been like this.
He was demanding and indifferent to me, yet he was so considerate to others.
I couldn’t help but laugh. Then, I said, “Let’s go, Dylan. Don’t get angry for someone who’s not worth it. You’re only hurting yourself.”
