"Charlotte, why don't you say something?" Shelly was sitting right next to her, and for all the while Charlotte did not say a word, so she inevitably felt anxious.
"Shelly, I'm sorry, but there's not much I can do about it." Charlotte feigned sadness, "Before the engagement, I probably had to spend most of my time in the hospital for the baby. What can I do like this?"
She choked up, "I called Luther last night and wanted him to come visit me in the hospital. He wasn't willing. I thought he was busy, but ... he was with Joyce ..." Before she could finish her words, she could barely speak.
Shelly stepped forward and pulled her in, a little crestfallen, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have made you so sad. Don't be upset, my mom knows about it too. My mom will definitely go to my brother for the matter. "
"Hmm." Charlotte drew a few napkins and wiped her tears.
"You are pregnant with his child, his son! You just have to Mrs. Warner!" Shelly tried desperately to cheer Charlotte up, "The most important task for you right now is to keep the baby. "
"I know. " Charlotte leaned back against the cushion and made a gesture to cover her belly, "My belly still hurts a bit these days and I'm afraid I can't get out of bed. "
"You should definitely just stay here, and never move, and I'll get you anything you need."
Shelly took out the chicken soup she brought, "Here, have a bowl of chicken soup before you have your meal. My mother cooked the soup from last night until this morning and you can even eat the bones. My mom also put a lot of bird's nest, try it."
She said as she served Charlotte a bowl of chicken soup and handed it over attentively.
Charlotte took the chicken soup. She was indeed very hungry. She had consumed too much last night, and she took a few sips and felt much better in her stomach.
