Chapter 394: Chapter 408: Overestimating Oneself, Underestimating Love (10)

This was the only thing she left for him.

As he looked at the tie clip, it seemed to carry a moment, allowing him to see Isabel’s brilliant smile. He now realized that the latter half of "seeing an object and thinking of a person" always meant that things had changed but people remained the same.

...

During the three-day New Year’s holiday, Isabel had nowhere to go and nothing to do. In the past, she would mostly stay at home, eating something casually, sleeping, and watching TV.

But now that she was pregnant, and not for the first time, Isabel had some experience and followed a more regular routine.

In fact, although Isabel’s routine had changed significantly, her heart was in turmoil every day.

First, her ten-month pregnancy was not easy for a single woman. With no one to take care of her and going to the hospital alone, especially when she saw other pregnant women with their families or lovers, her heart would inexplicably become melancholic.

Second, a pregnant woman’s mood was not stable. When Isabel was pregnant for the first time, she woke up crying many times late at night, her tears flowing for reasons that even she did not understand.

Third, her parents were wrongfully killed, and she had no evidence, only the memory of a conversation between Evelyn Osbert and Carla Osbert after the car accident. No one would believe her, and she could not forget her responsibility.

Last but not least, just as it was the last time, although she knew who the father was, she wasn’t prepared to be a mother.

In conclusion, Isabel was unsure whether to keep the child or have an abortion.

Rationally, this child wasn’t suitable for her, but emotionally, Isabel couldn’t bear to part with it.

So she struggled through the third day until the holiday was about to end, and decided to make an appointment for a prenatal examination.

At that time, Isabel thought that she could always have an abortion within the first three months, so she could go for a check-up first.

When Isabel went online to choose a gynecology and obstetrics hospital and make an appointment, she discovered that there were many pregnant women recently. She waited for half an hour before making an appointment with an expert doctor to have her first prenatal examination.

The appointment was scheduled for January 8th, at 3 pm.

There was still a week to go before that day.

Isabel thought that since she was going for a prenatal examination anyway, whether to keep or abort the baby could be decided after the results were out. So, with an escapist attitude, she threw herself wholeheartedly into work for the new week.

Though she was completely absorbed in work, Isabel was still subconsciously aware that she was a mother. She chose light meals, only drank purified water and milk, avoided places with a lot of cigarette smoke, and even replaced alcohol with freshly squeezed fruit juice during social events.

The biggest change was that Isabel started wearing flat shoes to work. She used to pay great attention to her appearance, believing that a woman’s beauty needed a pair of beautiful high heels to accentuate it. Now that she was wearing flat shoes, many of her beautiful clothes could no longer be matched.

As a result, Isabel would grumble at Percy and the child in her stomach every morning as she put on her inconspicuous clothes.

However, despite her complaints, Isabel still went to work every day in her plain clothes, obediently.

Many employees were curious about Isabel’s sudden change in clothing, but their curiosity didn’t lead them to offend her. After all, she was still the General Manager of the Smith Corporation’s Business Department.

On January 6th, Bellshire suddenly experienced a heavy snowfall, turning the entire world white.

In the afternoon, Elijah Smith came to the company, looking very excited as if he had encountered something wonderful. He went to Isabel’s office and mysteriously took out a gift box from his bag, placing it in front of her.
