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.
