Daddy, Chasing Mommy Back is On Us! novel Chapter 819

Pierre went still upon hearing this.

“The appointment for the 4D ultrasound scan is tomorrow. We should go together as a family.” With that, Selena nuzzled into his embrace and drifted off into an easy sleep.

The following morning, Pierre arranged for a scrumptious breakfast spread. Selena had only just woken up and made her way downstairs when he beckoned her over to the dining table. She shot him a quizzical look, to which he responded with, “I’ll be going to the company today, Selena. It’s about time I let them know that I’m still alive and kicking.”

Upon hearing this, she stiffened.

He grew worried when he saw the odd look on her face. “What is it? What’s wrong?”

“Didn’t I tell you about the prenatal check-up today? Moreover, today is the day for the very important 4D ultrasound scan.”

His face fell when he heard this. “Oh, I... I must have forgotten about it. I swear, my memory’s getting worse. I’ll go with you for the appointment.”

“Fine,” she answered with a stony expression.

Pierre might be a lot of things, but he was not a forgetful man. He had also been the one who promised to go along with her for all the scheduled prenatal check-ups, so it was unlikely that he would forget something as important as a 4D ultrasound scan.

She found that his behavior had only grown more erratic since the day of his return.

She remembered asking him a serious question the night before, but he had distracted her with the topic of Jude, and she was so over the moon that she forgot to ask him about anything else.

Now that I think about it, he was probably doing it on purpose! He deliberately changed the subject!

At the thought of this, she grabbed his hand and pleaded, “Pierre, if there’s anything going on with you, promise me you’ll tell me about it. I can’t stand living every day of my life in fear and panic.”

She was even beginning to question the truth of his retirement. He could have spun her the story in the interest of an even more important mission.

Presently, he patted her hand assuringly as he said, “All you have to do is focus on the baby. You won’t have to live in fear anymore. I’m retired now, remember? I won’t ever have to leave you again.”

“Tell me the truth, Pierre. Are you really retired?”
