Chapter 916

“Yeah,” Callum answered.

“But you don’t look well.” While speaking, Lillian habitually tried to reach out and touch his forehead.

However, the next moment, Callum’s expression abruptly changed, and he swept Lillian’s hand away instantly.

Lillian was stunned for a while as her hand froze in the air. Callum, too, appeared taken aback, and then he said rather weakly, “I… I was a little uncomfortable just now. Don’t touch me.”

That was because Callum couldn’t handle Lillian’s touch at all right now.

Lillian bit her lip and said somewhat embarrassedly, “All right, I got it.” She withdrew her hand, sat straight again, and even deliberately created a slight distance between them.

Callum opened his mouth, seemingly wanting to explain, but ultimately, he didn’t say anything.

“Just one more time! Once the curse is fully removed after the last session, I’ll tell her everything in detail!” he thought.

Finally, when it was Lillian’s turn, she walked into the consulting room, confirmed her gestational age, and then went for the B-scan that the doctor ordered.

As the B-scan instrument moved on Lillian’s abdomen, she had a strange feeling out of nowhere.

It seemed that only at this moment did Lillian feel like she was really pregnant.

Before long, the doctor turned to Lillian and said, “Done.”

“It’s done?” Lillian was stunned, not expecting it to be so quick. She didn’t even feel like much time had passed.

“Yeah, it’s done. Tidy your clothes and wait aside for the report.”

Lillian got off the B-scan bed, put on her clothes, and stood aside. After about a few minutes, the doctor handed her the report.
