Chapter 81

“Did you hear that? That’s the sound of the baby’s heartbeat, strong and awesome, a healthy little munchkin right there.”

Lizetta lay on the examination bed, listening to the heartbeat echoing in the room, and her own heart–started racing as if it was hit by a wave of excitement.

Her eyes welled up as she looked at the doctor.

“That’s wonderful, thank you.”

“You’re too skinny, the baby needs nutrition. Make sure you’re eating well, and have you been taking your folic acid?”

Lizetta nodded, “Been on it for half a month now.”

Since the pregnancy test came back positive, she had Yolanda help her buy folic acid, which she’d been taking daily alongside her vitamins.

The doctor nodded, “Good, good. Consider whether you want to register here at the hospital. You can get up now.”

Jenny, who was accompanying Lizetta for the prenatal checkup, quickly stepped forward to help her sit up, bearning with joy.

“Congrats, you’re gonna be a mom!”

Lizetta’s hand rested on her belly, her heart swirling with emotion.

“Yeah, becoming a mom is kind of magical.”

As she left the exam room, the corridor ahead suddenly buzzed with commotion.

Lizetta’s heart tightened, and she had a bad feeling. She paused and stared ahead.
