Chapter 853

After the nurse left, Officer Chad sat next to his wife, clutching the medical report with hands that trembled slightly. Molly noticed folks passing by, sneaking glances at her and the man in the police uniform beside her. She felt too timid to speak, and Chad's icy demeanor wasn't helping either.

The two of them looked more like a cop escorting a criminal for a hospital check-up than a married couple. Yet, appearance-wise, they seemed like a perfect match. Molly, trying to be discreet, tiptoed and propped herself up, attempting to quietly slide over to another chair. Chad glanced at the report again and, without turning his head, barked, "Sit back down!"

Caught in the act, Jade froze.

"Three."

"Two."

Jade quickly returned to her original seat and said, "Chad, why so serious? The more serious you look, the more people think I'm a criminal and you're the cop."

Officer Chad, in his peculiar logic, replied, "If you lean on my shoulder, everyone will just assume we're a couple. Who would misunderstand then?" Molly: "..."

Why does Chad make even leaning on his shoulder sound so stern?

"Chad, are you upset?"

Officer Chad asked with a cold expression, "Do I look upset to you?"

Molly felt even more intimidated to admit anything with his tone and expression. Chad was buzzing with excitement inside, but while some people cry with joy, others, like Chad, tense up with nervousness.

He was cautious, not wanting to get too hopeful about the "possible" pregnancy the nurse mentioned. The final test results were still pending, so he had to keep his cool. The more excited he got, the more serious he appeared, making Molly think he was upset about the recent fender bender.

She didn't dare lean on him, but Chad reached over, gently pressing Molly's head against his shoulder.

Molly stayed still.
