508 R U OK? - Part 1
Thursday
Anna was grateful that Hou Yi was leaving her to go to the appointment today with Phillipa, as over the last few days he had been smothering her with kindness. Being in the office and not able to work, had also been driving her insane.
Anna knew that he was doing this to ensure that she and their baby remained safe. She remembered last night not long after Phillipa had arrived she asked Hou Yi the question, who was more important, Anna or the babies. Hou YI\'s response stunned Anna.
"Anna you have to ask, while our children if we are lucky and they are born alive will be loved, you are the most important thing. I would choose you every time. We can have other children in the future, and if we are not lucky enough to be able to have a biological child ourselves in the future there are options, we can engage a surrogate, or adopt. But you know I love you, and without you live would be a poor imitation of what we can have together."
Even now thinking about it, made her must pause and consider her future. There were all these possibilities for her, regardless of what happens. Yes, Yi\'s fortune makes that easier to do, but given the culture focused on children from a relationship being the absolute priority it totally shocked her. Maybe, regardless of what happens with the pregnancy, and in the future, they could consider adoption of a child or two.
Anna, when she left the suite and started to head downstairs, was interrupted by Phillipa coming down after her, calling up "Hold up Anna."
Anna paused and the two of them walked down towards the small dining room, which Hou Yi was exiting. He paused and gave Anna a brief kiss before racing out the door to head into the office.
As they sat down, staff quickly asked what they wanted, and drinks were brought in for them, and Phillipa turned and started to speak.
"Why in the world did you not tell me you are pregnant? Damn it Anna, you have serious psychological issues, and you are adding this to the mix."
"Phillipa, it was not planned, and we were simply lucky that I did not miscarry because of the assault and we would not known. Just because it is not planned does not mean that it is not something we want."?Anna carefully placed her hand on her stomach, as if she was shielding her baby.
Anna\'s action did not go unnoticed to Phillipa.?Damn it, Anna and Yi were totally ignorant about how much a pregnancy could impact on her at this time, and the risks post-delivery of serious mental health issues.?But that was something she could not drop on them at this time,
"Anna, the two of you are so much trouble. Compared to where you were when I was last here, there has been a dramatic shift, but as Sunday proved, you are still fragile. You are going to have to be careful as your pregnancy goes forward, regular appointments with your psychologist, and lots of support, other than Yi around you."
"Well, I have you."
"Actually possibly no. My maternal grandfather has only been given months to live, Cancer. My parents realise that this is likely the last trip that they can easily make back, and they will have to decide what they are going to do"
"I suspect that my darling mother is going to pass on to me the management of the estate, and possibly will be talking to the government and the Queen about passing on the title to me. She never wanted it, and there is no way that I want dump all the responsibilities on my younger sisters. But that pressures me onto marrying myself."Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
After a brief pause "Damn it, Anna, you are distracting me. I will be a video conference away, but you will need support. The real prospect is that you can suffer Post-Natal depression. Now, come on, let us eat up so we can get to this appointment."
"And guess what, you are coming shopping with me and I am going for a second to last fitting for my wedding dress."
With that, breakfast was brought in and they two of them quickly finished it off before finishing getting ready before heading to the hospital for Anna\'s review appointment.
