Chapter 417 - Jean is really pregnant!!

Rick and Hope went upstairs through the glass elevator. Every floor have a huge pictures symbolizing to whom the floor belongs. 

It is Rick, Iris, Jean, Kiara, Raymond and other person. Whereas only Rick have a single picture and remaining are couple pictures of the couple. 

"Don't worry love. We will take a good picture now and I will ask staff to hang it. I am no longer single.." he grinned seeing her blushed face 

At last they reached the top floor. A pregnant woman is leaning on to a man who resembles like a Italian model. But he looked familiar…very familiar. 

He is feeding her fruits and she is pleading him to stop. Except for them no one are there..

"Hello Hope." That man greeted her and Rick pouted. 

"Man, can't you see me standing here. Or are you ignoring me" Rick asked. 

"Haha, after bringing my sister your job is done. So.." his big brother mocked. 

Hope is greatly surprised by the warm welcome. He even called her his sister…she is too happy. 

Danielle carefully stood up with her husbands help. "Welcome Hope. At last Rick found some courage to propose you…we have been waiting for you since almost half year" she said and hugged her. 

But her swollen stomach blocked their hug. 

Hope smiled brightly. "Yeah at last he did. I almost lost my hope" she said. 

Rick's big brother laughed. "Darling why don't you and Hope talk for a while. I have something to discuss with Rick" he said and kissed Elle's forehead. 

"Sure" Elle smiled and said. 

"Hmm….Elle. It's almost midnight. You four have to sleep. Can you take Hope to one of the guest room" Rick requested. 

"Wow…..so caring." Elle teased but nodded her head and led Elle to downstairs. 

"Four?" Hope asked confusingly. 

"Rick included my two twins in my stomach" Danielle laughed and caressed her stomach. 

"Congrats" Hope genuinely wished. 

"Hope, you can call me sister all right. You might not know us but we know you very well" Danielle tried to ease out her nervousness. 

At last they somehow ended talking whole night. 

Meanwhile in study room….

The atmosphere is pretty serious and tensed. 

"Found anything?" Rick asked. 

"No Rick. The attack on you is indeed done by Johann. But the instructions came from other person" his big brother said. 

"Whom? Can it be second young master of Braxton's" Rick asked. 

"Impossible…Rick. He hates Johann and moreover Elder Braxton will not agree to it" his big brother firmly wiped it off. 

...…

Jean excitedly got ready to go to hospital. Though there is still three hours to her appointment she is too excited to wait. 

At the same time she is nervous. What if she isn't?

She sat down on the edge of the bed and started biting her fingernails. 

Scott who just entered the room after taking a bath saw her with amus.e.m.e.nt. When did she start to bit her nails. 

"Baby, what's wrong. You are actually weird since morning" Scott hugged her and asked. 

Jean leaned into his hug and inhaled his scent which instantly soothed her nervous mind. 

"Hmm….nothing. I am going to hospital" Jean blurted out in daze of his fragrance. 

"What!! Why? Are you hurt" Scott panicked and started unbuttoning her top to look at her. 

"STOP….." Jean said and slapped his hand away from her chest. 

"I am going to meet Mia to talk about that serum they are making. She wants my help" Jean instantly cooked her excuse. 

"Why are you nervous then" Scott asked suspiciously. 

"Honey, I am nervous because he is in verge of dying and he is the only loose end to find about Johann" Jean stated the half truth. 

"Fine Wifey. Be careful" Scott kissed her forehead. 

He wanted to accompany her but he is going to meet Iris to brief out their teams. He must go otherwise he would have went together with Jean. 

…..

Jean disguised herself and she looked like a college student. She should be extremely cautious and not let anyone know about her visit. 

Mia almost failed to recognize Jean when she entered the hospital. Satisfied with her make up skills Jean introduced herself with a smirk. 

Without waiting any long they went to the gynecology department. 

Jean changed herself into a robe Mia gave and went inside for her ultra scan. 

…..

B - thump 

B- thump

B- thump 

The faint beat echoed in the room. From the monitor , the image of black like galaxy and white like pea sized white dot got displayed. 

Mia almost jumped with happiness. 

"Jean…YOU ARE REALLY PREGNANT" she squealed loudly. 

"Gosh, you are really pregnant. I am not dreaming right….pinch me Jean" Mia shouted. 

Whereas Jean is as quite as ever. Her gaze is fixed on to the white dot on the monitor. 

She is shocked. Quite shocked actually. 

She really is pregnant….

She is going to became a mother. But wait...is she ready for it. 

However as she looked at the tiny white dot her face etched with smile. Well, no one will be ready....they will tend themselves to become a good parent. 

"Jean you fine…" Mia asked worriedly seeing Jean spaced out. 

"I am going to become a mother…Mia. Gosh I can't believe it" Jean talked at last. Her eyes teared with happy tears. 

"Yes you are…" Mia said and handed her the print of ultrascan after she helped Jean out of the bed. 

Her eyes misted up as she saw her baby. She and Scott are going to became parents…

She have to arrange a proper chance to tell Scott about this. He will be beyond happy..
