In the next second, Michael caught hold of Wendy's hand. Forced to remain where she was, she could only stare back at Michael.
However, the examination sheet that she was holding was still hidden behind her back. She did not want him to see it.
The more Wendy behaved like this, the more nervous Michael felt. Gazing at her, he took a deep breath, seemingly to brace himself for the bad news. He said, "Wendy, I want you to tell me the truth about your examination results. If you... And I mean if, if you really have some kind of incurable disease, you should not give up on yourself just yet. I'll find the best doctor in the world to treat you." Michael's feelings of anxiety and concern were genuine.
When Wendy looked into his eyes, she felt moved for a fleeting second. However, it passed quickly. She wondered if Michael found out about her pregnancy right now, would he behave the same way that he did four months ago and tell her that she was not worthy of bearing his child?
