A Touch of Sweetness novel (Finnick and Vivian) novel Chapter 288

If only they could be like this forever, living a simple but meaningful life.

The thought of being able to be with Finnick every single day appealed to Vivian. The only downside to it was that he had an incredibly large sexual appetite and she was hard-pressed to satisfy him. It seemed like the elder Mr. Norton had been wise to gift her all those supplements.

At this, she suddenly realized that her period was late.

Her period had always been very punctual, yet this time it was late by more than two weeks.

Just what's going on? Don't tell me the elder Mr. Norton hit the nail on the head! Could I be pregnant? Am I really that lucky?

Since she could not be sure that she was right, she decided to go to the hospital for a check-up. She did not tell anyone about her plans, not wanting to give them false hope. After all, if she were wrong, it would be absolutely embarrassing!

Arriving at the hospital, it was crammed full of people.

She made an appointment with the gynecology clinics and sat down to wait for her turn. All around her were pregnant women, some with large bellies that showed they were in their late trimester of pregnancy while others with barely a bump. Every single one of them had a male accompanying them.

Vivian fantasized about the envious stares she would get from other women if she were really pregnant and Finnick came with her. No matter where he went, he would always be the most attractive man in sight.

A couple was talking to each other nearby and Vivian tilted her head slightly to eavesdrop.

The wife said, "I'm seven months along so we'll be able to tell the gender of the baby by now. I like the idea of having a baby girl."

Her husband questioned, "You think it's a girl?"

"The baby came to me in a dream last night. She said she's a girl."

"As long as the baby is healthy, I couldn't care less. I get so nervous every time we come to the hospital!"

Vivian mentally chuckled. With how anxious he seems, one would have thought he's the one to give birth to the baby! I really hope I'm pregnant. Finnick would be ecstatic, wouldn't he?

She could already imagine how Finnick would dote on her during her pregnancy. Then, a scene of him pushing a stroller as they meandered down a street played out in her mind. The ground would be littered with fallen leaves, painting such a perfect picture...

Are we really going to welcome a new life? A small being that has our blood running in its veins, the fruit born of our love. It would carry on a part of us forever, be our legacy. Pregnancy really is a miraculous thing!

A long while later, it was finally her turn. Most of the other women were already gone.

Heart pounding, she pushed open the door to the clinic and entered.

The doctor asked her a series of simple questions before sending her off to get her blood drawn.
