Chapter 722 Showing PDA
Martha held her forehead resignedly and rolled her eyes at Stefan with no good grace.
The baby's gender was uncertain, but Stefan had shown his great enthusiasm for a daughter.
If the baby in the belly was a son, then his life would not be too easy.
After Martha returned to her senses, she patted Stefan's big hand, "Bring my phone over. | need to call home.""Okay," Stefan responded gently and quickly brought Martha's cell phone.
After Martha got the phone, the first thing she did was to video call her father.
The video call was quickly answered, and as soon as Maxwell saw his daughter, a loving smile appeared on his face."Martha."
"Dad, where are you now?"
Through the phone, Martha could clearly see the blue-colored sky, thus affirming that Maxwell was outdoors.
The corner of Maxwell's mouth curled up in a good mood, "I'm having coffee with Bianca in the garden, and in a few minuteswe're going to pick Jimmy up from school."
"Bianca's around too?" As soon as Martha asked, Maxwell handed the phone to Bianca.
Bianca lovingly looked at Martha on the phone. Suddenly she frowned and couldn't help but ask with concern, "Martha, what'swrong with you? Why do you look so bad?"
"Bianca, I'm pregnant.”
Martha smiled and looked at Bianca.
Bianca heard these words, obviously stunned in place.
It was Maxwell, who was standing to one side, who first came back to his senses and asked a follow-up question in shock.“Martha, you said you're pregnant again?"
"Well, the doctor said that everything is fine with me and that the baby is about two months old."
Martha's eyes were full of smiles and she was obviously looking forward to the birth of this baby.
Maxwell couldn't help but say out loud, "Good, good, that's good."
Bianca smiled too.
“Martha, then you better eat well now and rest well, do not eat or rest irregularly like before.”
"| know, | will take good care of myself."
Martha looked sideways at Stefan and pointed to the water bottle sitting not far away.
The man followed her movements and immediately understood that his wife was thirsty and wanted water.
He got up right away to pour Martha a glass of water, carefully testing the temperature before handing it to her.Martha took the glass and drank from it, looking at Stefan with obvious admiration in her eyes.
After Bianca asked a question, there was no response from Martha for quite some time. Bianca couldn't help but ask again,“Martha, when do you plan on coming back?"
“Tomorrow should be fine," replied Martha with a smile, feeling excited deep down inside.
She had come to Ulmore to participate in the national painting competition in order to win the first place to promote her and Rhys'studio for free. Now that everything was settled, she could go back home with Stefan without any worries. Plus, now that shewas pregnant, she couldn't wait to share her joy with Melissa and Bianca.
Just as she happily responded though, Stefan spoke up and denied her answer, "No.""Why not?"
Martha frowned in confusion at the man sitting beside the hospital bed.
Stefan took her phone and explained gently while looking at Bianca and Maxwell,
"Dad... Bianca... the doctor just did an overall checkup on Martha; they said there might be some instability with the fetus, so |plan on staying here longer."
Maxwell and Bianca both echoed their agreement over the phone, "That is reasonable. Martha should stay for furtherobservation. It's better and safer.”
Martha widened her eyes, completely taken aback by what Stefan said.
When she asked him earlier about their baby's health, he told her everything looked good according to what doctors said.Why did his words change all of a sudden?
As Martha remained puzzled, Stefan handed back the phone to Martha.
Maxwell and Bianca who were previously happy also changed their attitude into concern and reminded Martha, "Sweetie, listento Stefan. Stay put in hospital until you recover fully!"
Bianca had just finished reminding Martha, and Maxwell echoed immediately, "Yes, Bianca is right. You should listen to thedoctor's advice. You don't need to rush back home. We'll take care of Jimmy."
Bianca nodded in agreement. Fearing that Martha might be careless, she couldn't help remind again, "Martha, even though thisis your second child, there are still things you need to pay attention to. Don't be stubborn."
"Yes, yes, we're here for you at home. Don't worry," Maxwell echoed once again as Martha finally snapped out of her trance andlooked at her father and Bianca who were anxiously waiting on the other end of the phone.
"Dad, Bianca, don't worry about me. I'm fine," Martha reassured them.Maxwell nodded his head but was still worried since Stefan had just mentioned that the fetus was unstable.
He quickly said, "Where's Stefan? Give him the phone, so | can talk to him."novelbin
Martha reluctantly handed over her phone to Stefan.
Stefan looked kindly at his father-in-law and said, "Dad, I'm listening."
As Martha watched how well-behaved he was with his father-in-law, she raised an eyebrow.
She always knew that Stefan respected Maxwell very much but never thought he would behave so well in front of him.Soon enough, Maxwell's worried voice interrupted Martha's thoughts.
"Stefan, Martha is stubbornsometimes. It's okay that YOUSBGHher much But paw Hal she'sdana! take sure to keep her inthe hospital for a few more days ofobservation." Please read the originalcontent at NovelDrama.Org.
Upon hearing these words from Maxwell, Stefan solemnly nodded his head, saying "Dad, rest assured; | will take good care ofboth Martha and our child.”"With you around, | naturally feel relieved," replied Maxwell before ending off their conversation.
Then Bianca continued giving instructions ranging from what foods should be avoided all the way down to making sure not spillwater or slip on wet floors.
Martha was getting impatient while Stefan remained good-natured.She watched his serious expression and had no doubt that Stefan would follow through on everything Bianca told them.
Finally, when Martha was almost falling asleep from boredom, they ended the call. As soon as the video chat disconnected,Martha perked up and looked at Stefan suspiciously.
"Did the doctor say my pregnancy is unstable?" she asked."Yes," replied Stefan calmly. "He said you should rest well and not overexert yourself.”
Stefan then made a call to his assistant and ordered some high-quality grapes to be delivered. After hanging up, he sat backdown beside Martha's bed.

If her paintings were sold well, there would be even more work for her in the future - something that Stefan didn't want while shewas only two months pregnant.
Therefore, he lied a little bit so that Martha could take some time off and relax properly since Rhys was capable enough tohandle things on his own.
If Rhys knew what Stefan really thought about, he'd probably complain endlessly since he was still single and had to put up withtheir PDA!
