CHAPTER 127
She knew that he was trying to make her laugh, making her temporarily forget about her situation.
Gemma watched as the two of them got along and from her observation, Nana was indeed fond of Livian. They spoke of different topics including their marriage, how many children he thought they should have and when Gemma heard him say he would love it if they had three more, her eyes widened. "What do you think we are creating? A basketball team?" She jabbed him and reprimanded sternly. He thought about it seriously as though that was what he had actually been considering. "Well, a basketball team would have been awesome. Unfortunately, four cannot make an actual team so we can go for a table of Ludo players." "You are full of crap." She burst out laughing. "What's wrong with a table of Ludo players? I think it's a good idea." Nana expressed her support for Livian. She loved children so much. How Gemma wished sheRelated chapter

The couple was so excited about the gender reveal that when morning finally came, they had barely slept.Livian turned in bed and took a look at his wife who was wide awake. He smiled and pulled her into his arms."Are you excited?""I'm on the verge of flying off!" She confessed through a bout of laughter. It was only 7am and they had booked the doctor's appointment for 11am but she slid out of bed, freshened up and dressed up like she was late for a meeting that had already begun."Slow down, my love." He urged, even though he was in a hurry himself."Let's go." She pulled him away when she was done dressing up.He grabbed the keys and let her drag him to the parking lot.They were at the hospital a couple of hours before their appointment time so they spent a little time with Nana.Gemma sat beside Nana's bed and held the elderly lady's hand. "I'm so nervous, grandma.""Why are you

Gemma was nervous as they waited for the doctor to arrive. She took deep breaths as she looked at the bed where she was supposed to lie. She had already changed into the hospital gown but that was not nearly enough to prepare her mind for the procedure.Livian held her hand and tried to keep her mind off of it. "What would you like to eat later?""I don't know. Chinese?" She made a random choice. "Anything that tastes good." She felt hungry just at the thought.She frowned and looked up at him. "Is this really normal, love? I've been eating everything around me. I'm certain that if you were edible, I would have already eaten you as well." She joked.He laughed."I'm serious here." She hit his shoulder. "At first, I chalked it up to your skill in the kitchen that has been improving day and night but is that really it?""There's three of us now." He reminded her, touching her slight bump lovingly."Then the b

"Are you ready?" Asked Dr. Valentine. She took a pair of gloves from a box near the monitor and slid them onto her hands."I am." Gemma had a sudden urge to get it done with. Maybe deep down she knew that no matter what the result was, she would still be overjoyed. To be exact, she had not been worried about the result of the gender reveal to begin with. All she wanted was to be certain that her baby was in good health, what with her past record of losing a pregnancy.She was nervous even though she knew that when it happened, it was not due to natural causes. At the back of her mind, part of her still believed that it could have been caused by her body's inability to carry a baby. The thought that someone else killed her baby was harder to swallow and the memory of it sent a chill down her stomach.Her hand flew to her bump. "I'm sorry, baby. I should not have thought about that." She muttered under her breath, but Livian caught her words.

"It's a beautiful name." Gemma squeezed her hand."We will consider it." Livian agreed."Thank you." She felt emotional. "I wish I was able to see little Liam with my eyes. It will mean the world to me if I'm able to sing him a lullaby and put him to sleep.""You will." Gemma leaned over to help her sit up. She then sat back down on her chair with Nana's hand in hers. "Grandma, you have to stop thinking about the negative side of life. I know you are having a difficult time and I totally understand it if you find it hard to be able to put up with what's happening, but you can't let it break you down. You are a strong woman, grandma. The strongest I have ever known of. And you have me."She caressed Gemma's face. She knew that the latter still felt awful about not being able to donate her kidney to her. Not that she would ever have accepted it.Constance arrived a while later, with a food flask in hand. William had to go back to

"Mother! That's…" Gemma didn't know what to say of the suggestion that had come out of the blue. She had never even thought about it, let alone expect her parents to ask that of her.Constance pulled her to the living room. "Let's have this conversation while we're more comfortable." She suggested.Gemma had started feeling tired from standing so she gladly took a seat.Constance sat opposite her and gazed at her gently. "I know how hard it has been for you, trying for a child for years. I would have loved to take care of you throughout your pregnancy. Besides, I have never been there for you for anything.""It wasn't your fault that we were separated. And who said you haven't been there for me? You have and we already had this discussion, mother.""I know, but still." She still didn't think she would be able to have peace if she wasn't certain of how her daughter was every day."I will be alright, mother." She

Livian came in from outside soon after she called for him."There you are." She smiled."Were you starting to miss me?" He joked and took her hand, spinning her around. "You look breathtaking.""Thank you." She let him take her hand and lead her to the dining room where the party had started.William poured them drinks and raised a toast."To my first grandson."Constance echoed him, and Livian held Gemma's hand up. "To our first child. I hope there will be a second and a third, and…"Everyone burst into laughter, interrupting him.Gemma down

"What are you going to do with that?" She asked."Making sure you had nothing to worry about." He stated, but she knew that was not the case. Did he also suspect that there was something wrong with the food?"Are you going to take it to the lab?" She asked."I can have Darrell drop it off. We will get the results tomorrow after visiting Nana." He explained his idea."That's a great plan." She was relieved. She would never be able to stay in peace thinking that there was a slight chance that someone wanted to harm her son.Hence, she sat at the kitchen island as he cooked."Is everything okay with the two of you?" Constance asked when she arrived in the kitchen. She had been looking for them."Yeah. It's all good." She responded quickly. Livian looked at her and she shot him back a reassuring look. They were going to have a test on her food but in case they were wrong about suspecting it of anything, they wo

"I hope it is." She sighed.Waiting for the results made her feel more anxious than she did the day before and by the time they were out, she had not moved an inch. She had sat on the bench the whole time but her body trembled with nerves.Livian was still stroking her back and when the doctor arrived with the results, he stood to speak to him."What does it say?" Livian asked."Luckily, there aren't any signs of sleeping pills in her bloodstream." He reported."That's a relief." they collectively let out the breath they had been holding.The doctor gave them a few reminders about being cautious and when they finally left the hospital, the first thing they wanted to do was find the head maid and interrogate her.In the car, Gemma thought of a possibility and grabbed her phone. "What if she runs away? She hid my food away when we found out that there could be something wrong with it." "I had a fe
