Chapter 722
“Nana?” Elliot nervously clasped her hands, his eyes filled with unease.
Sheena contemplated for a moment before asking, “Did Professor Y mention that the babies will definitely contract the virus because of this?”
“Not necessarily. It’s a matter of probability. We can only confirm after the children are born and undergo testing, but I don’t want to risk your health. Sacrificing this pregnancy is the safest option.”
Hearing this, Sheena quickly made up her mind.
“If it’s a matter of probability, then I believe the babies and I are the lucky ones! Besides, when Professor y administered Clear to you, he kept a sample for research. Even if we were unfortunately infected, I trust Professor Y and Noah’s medical expertise to ensure our safety!”
She grabbed Elliot’s hand and guided it to her belly, urging him to feel.
“Since Heaven has sent these two little ones to us, we should cherish and love them. If we lose them, even if we conceive again, it won’t be these two babies.”
Elliot gently caressed her currently flat abdomen.
Despite the absence of any discernible signs of the babies, his unease remained.
“Nana, I don’t want to test luck…”
Sheena firmly grabbed his drooping chin, making him meet her gaze.
Her tone was serious as he said, “But I’m willing to take the gamble with the babies! With Professor Y and Noah, even if I lose, there won’t be any life–threatening risks. Eli, I hope you respect my choice.
We can’t cruelly deprive these babies of their right to come into this world just because of a probability issue.”
Seeing the determination in her eyes, Elliot sighed and compromised, “Alright, I’ll go along with you. We’ll take this chance together!”
“Mm!” Sheena nodded. “Eli, you’ve been through a lot before, and our.bad luck streak has long ended, right? I believe that, at some point, luck will be on our side!”
Elliot gently tapped her nose, his eyes filled with affection.
“What do you feel like eating tonight? I’ll cook.”
Sheena did not answer immediately.
The moment Elliot spoke, he seemed to have a predetermined plan, and she found it suspicious.
With a sly glint, she questioned, “Eli, you’ve even researched that kind of medication. Did you already have a plan in mind?”
Elliot froze, not expecting Sheena to catch on so quickly and figure out his intentions. This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
He avoided eye contact, intending to come up with a quick lie to divert the conversation.
hist then, the phone on the bedside table rang
Elliot glanced over and saw it was Lionel calling. Remembering the matter of sending Lionel abroad to buy the medicine, he was about to decline the call as he was feeling guilty.
However, Sheena took the phone from him.
Sheena raised an eyebrow, studying him. “Look at your guilty little act. Why aren’t you answering Lionel’s call?”
“Elliot began, but Sheena did not give him a chance to make excuses.
She decisively answered the call and put it on speaker.
Lionel’s anxious voice immediately came through,
“Elliot, I really can’t go through with this. My conscience won’t let mel Trying to hide buying
medicine from Sheena, if she finds out about this, it won’t just be you in trouble, but I’ll be in a fix too. Besides, this decision is too heartless…”
Elliot lowered his head, his face turning pale as his eyelashes trembled, and his Adam’s apple rolled
uneasily
Sheena gave him a cold glance.
On the other end of the call, Lionel continued to advise earnestly.
In a stern tone, Sheena interrupted him, “What did Elliot ask you to buy?”
