Even before they could start eating, Jean felt nauseous. Just like this morning she had a sudden urge to puke.
Closing her eyes for a brief moment she breathed in and out. "Honey, what's wrong?" Scott asked worriedly.
"Hmm….nothing. I was just feeling exhausted and want to sleep" Jean said.
She is already taking a mental note of when her last period was. Yes, there are high chances that she might be pregnant or else this nauseous feeling should be because of food or her usual symptoms of migraine.
Today has been little anxious and shocking day because of Evan. And because of that pressure her head started to ache, a primary symptom of migraine.
"She might be exhausted Scott. We really had a very tough time today" Helen said and Scott nodded his head.
"Mom, I will take Jean upstairs and we will have our lunch there itself." Scott said.
Jean wanted to deny it. Her mother had came all this way just to spend some time with her but she can feel her stomach getting more and more sick that she wanted to do nothing but sleep peacefully.
"Mom, you and Helen continue with shopping. She has very good taste" Jean smiled weakly.
"Sis in law, don't worry I will take care of them and moreover I too have something to shop" Shawn said and Helen frowned.
"Mm" Jean agreed.
"Take care of her Scott. I will be back soon" his mother said and kissed Jean's forehead. "Rest well"
Without wasting anymore time Scott carried her to their room and made her sit. "First, let's get you eat something and then you can sleep as much as you want"
"No, I want to sleep for a little. Later on I will eat… please Scott" Jean pouted.
Scott succ.u.mbed to her cute actions but his heart ached seeing her pale face. "Fine, sleep for one hour and after that you have to eat okay" Scott tucked her in bed and hugged her to sleep.
Jean snuggled closer but she is in her own world. Her guts were telling her that she is pregnant and she will be very happy if that is true.
But more than her, Scott and her family would be beyond happy. After all they are waiting for this news. She is very excited and wanted to tell Scott about this but she is not ready to give him a false hope either.
This symptoms are very common for her due to her migraine…
After getting a proper checkup she will give all of them a happy surprise. Anyway they will be going to country A to attend Sean's marriage so she decided to use that moment.
"Baby, just sleep. Don't stress out this much…every thing will all right. Evan is capable of facing this problem" Scott started stroking her hair in a soothing manner that she felt her eyelids drop.
And in no time she is fast asleep in his secured embrace. However Scott didn't think that it might be because his wife is pregnant with his child. And no one can blame him for it because this symptoms are quite common for her.
Meanwhile the trio are doing their shopping. Shawn is anyway ignored by his two best woman but he is very happy to see his mother treating Helen with wholehearted love.
He hoped that she will start opening up to him, but he knew he have to wait patiently just like how his brother waited for Jean.
After seeing how harmonious they are, he realized that time is the essence here. He will follow his brother's path and will not force her into anything.
But that doesn't mean he will let go of her family that easily. Helen is not a revenge type like his sister in law but certainly he is…
He sighed when he saw his mother enter maternity section.
He started wondering why his mother always have very high 'hopes' on his brother. Only if Helen would have agreed to be his woman…he would have shown his mother that he is more reliable than his brother
....
After Jean ate her lunch after one hour, she clutched her blanket tightly and slept in Scott's arms. Scott waited till she is asleep and then started working.
But after some time he went into his study room to take a video conference. As if on cue Jean jolted up and took her mobile swiftly, calling Mia.
She doesn't want to take risk by consulting any other doctor and she wanted her pregnancy to be a secret. There are still some dangers lurking around her and she decided that this is the best solution.
After talking to Mia, Jean smiled warmly. Her checkup will be on the next week and she is excited as hell.
"Baby, if you are really there inside me….you don't know how excited I am to see you." Jean chuckled as she stroked her flat stomach and giggled at her actions.
It felt strange in a good way….
Only if Scott would have seen her glowing face and affection emanating from her actions he might have surely eaten warehouse of vinegar.
She is not even sure if the bun is really there or not, but still she started giving her unwavering love and attention to it. How sad of his plight after confirming the news….
As she listened Scott's footsteps she covered herself from head to toe and pretend as if she is in deep sleep.
.....
Mia sighed. Jean is really so excited and as her friend she is happy for her.
Fishing out her mobile she called Enrick who is busy in planning his propose to Hope.
"Jean thinks she is pregnant. She is coming for checkup the next week" she said.
Enrick sighed. His big brother will surely be angry…not because he don't want her to be but because he is afraid of what might happen.
"OK, report me back"
