Chapter 332
The nurse said, “That’s great to hear. Today’s test is a bit different, and there might be a little surprise. Can you lie down on the bed?”
Olivia didn’t know what the test involved, but she followed the instructions. After the nurse helped her onto the bed, she saw that it was an ultrasound.
She wasn’t scared, Lying there, she felt the nurse spread a chilly gel on her belly while the doctor watched
the screen.
She began to feel drowsy and let her body relax. Her belly was larger now since she was nearly four
months pregnant.
Alisa and the nurse watched anxiously.
Eventually, the device moving over her belly stopped, and the doctor announced, “The baby is growing
well.”
Olivia paused, not fully grasping the doctor’s words at first. Then, the printer began to click.
Olivia looked at the doctor, and the nurse took something from him and approached her. “Look at this.”
Before Olivia could respond, she was holding it–a printout showing the baby inside her womb. Olivia was amazed and stared at the image for a long while.
The nurse cheerfully said, “Here’s the surprise. It’s too bad the dad isn’t here to see this.”
The baby’s face was unclear, squished against her womb’s walls, making it hard to see any features.
Olivia felt overwhelmed as if a beam of light had struck through her eyes. Was this how her baby looked? She continued to stare at the picture when suddenly, Alisa commented, “It looks a lot like Mr. Tyler.”
The nurse grinned, “Yes, it’s a boy.”
Both Alisa and the nurse were thrilled. A boys a welcome addition to the family.
“I’m going to call Madam Maisy and Mrs. Ana, Alisa announced, eager to share the news. Olivia was still fixated on the image and barely noticed as she left the room.
The news delighted the Harrises. Alisa passed the phone to Olivia, and Maisy exclaimed, “I heard the baby looks a lot like Tyler, Olivia!”
Olivia knew it was hard to tell who the baby resembled at this stage, aware the maid had just exaggerated.
Hearing Maisy’s voice stirred mixed feelings in Olivia, but joy was starting to dominate because it was the first time she had seen her baby. She held the photo tightly.
Malsy, overwhelmed with joy, said, “I have a great–grandson! Time to shop for baby boy clothes.”
