Awake for Love: My Coma Bridegroom novel Chapter 596

“Congratulations, Mr. Bourne, it’s a boy,” the doctor announced, pointing to the distinct features on the screen in front of them.

Elijah swallowed hard. His voice was barely a whisper. “Can I see his face?”

The doctor quickly adjusted the ultrasound probe.

Unfortunately, the baby had turned, so only his side profile was visible.

“I saved a picture of his face earlier,” the doctor reassured Elijah, pulling up the image on the screen. “Mr. Bourne, your son looks a lot like you. It’s apparent at first glance.”

Elijah looked at the picture of his unborn son. His heart softened.

This was the first time he truly felt the reality of the child - a living, breathing being.

Suddenly, he understood why Violette had been so upset when he had insisted on medication for her.

She had felt the life inside her before he did.

“I’ll print out the baby’s picture for you later,” the doctor said. “Let me first check on the baby’s development.”

Elijah nodded.

After a moment, the doctor said, “The baby is a little small. The mother should nourish herself more, rest, and avoid excessive fatigue.”

Elijah’s gaze shifted to Violette.

Her cheeks flushed. She slid off the exam table and headed out of the room.

Shortly after, Elijah emerged with the ultrasound printout in hand.

The two shared a silent moment before stepping into the elevator.

The hospital was crowded, so the elevator was no different.

Elijah, concerned for her comfort, stood face to face with her, keeping her within his protective space.

Feeling his intense gaze, she quickly lowered her eyes.
