Bound by her bump novel Chapter 3

Eric stopped what he was doing intending to continue after his visit to Doctor Myers; a man who was like a father to him.

The drive to the hospital was very quiet, He couldn’t help but wonder what good news Doctor Myers had for him.-

A happy smile spread across his face as he thought about the possibility of what the good news could be. The smile was replaced with a frown when he remembered there was bad news also which will probably overshadow the good news. He decided to be hopeful and silently prayed to God to give him the strength to go through whatever Dr Myers had to discuss with him.

Robin, Eric’s driver parked in front of the hospital. It was a private hospital, a four-storey building, all painted in white.

Eric was bombarded with greetings from the staff and even some patients. He did not fail to notice the lust in the eyes of some of the nurses. He chuckled and focused on where he was going. He was used to people drooling over him. But unfortunately, he wasn’t interested in them. He was still waiting for the woman who was going to steal his heart.

He knew where Doctor Myers office was so he went there straight and knocked on his door.

“Come in.” He heard a faint voice say and he opened the door.

“Hi, Doc." Eric greeted as he made his way in.

Doctor Myers stretched out his hand to him for a shake after which they both took their seats. Myers sat behind his desk and Eric sat opposite him.

Eric rubbed his hands together as they started becoming sweaty despite the fact that the air conditioner was on. Eric Ivan-James was nervous as hell.

“Thanks for being here on time.” Doctor Myers said as he removed his glasses and placed them on the table.

“Should I be worried?” Eric asked with a shaky voice.

Myers sighed. "A little."

“So what is it?” He asked.

“As I said earlier, I have good and bad news. I will start with the good one which is about the test result. You no longer have a low sperm count.”

There was a few minutes of silence as Eric tried to process the unbelievable statement he just heard.

"Are you sure, Doc?" His voice came out as a whisper.

Doctor Myers nodded. Only then did Eric have a sigh of relief. He never believed this day was going to come. He had lost all hope but God came through for him. This means he would be able to have his child, what he had always wanted. His parents will surely go crazy when they hear this news.

“Your blood and urine test confirmed it but we couldn’t confirm with the semen you provided us with.”

“What does that mean?” Eric asked, his small smile slowly turning into a frown.“Does that mean you’re not sure of what you just told me?” He asked with a heavy heart.

“I’m sure Eric, you’re fine now. Once your blood test proves it then it’s final. It’s just that there was a mix-up and your semen was used for another person.”
