Chapter 274
And so, Renee and Margaret came to the private maternity hospital where Renee often got her
prenatal checkups.
As they were waiting for Renee's turn, Margaret kept holding Renee's arm and carefully checked her
pulse.
"Your pulse is normal, Miss Renee. Your babies should be fine. You shouldn't allow a dream to scare
you sick. Let's just knock on wood, and everything will be fine."
Renee nodded but was still full of concern.
’I know my precious little cubs are fine since I've been strong and fit all the while. But I just can't stop
myself from worrying. I can't shake off the feeling that something might happen."
"Shush! Don't speak of such inauspicious things, Miss Renee! You might not believe anyone, but you
must believe the traditional medical
knowledge that I learned from my family. You know that I can treat any illness under the sun by
prescribing a few herbs! I'm telling you, there's nothing to worry about."

Renee finally felt slightly more at ease as she walked into the doctor's office. Her report came out in no
time, and it was found that both of her babies were healthy and were developing well. They appeared
to have been completely unaffected by her activities. It also seemed that her unborn children had
become quite resilient.
"Ms. Everheart,’ said the doctor, "in one week, the fetuses will be three months old, which means that
you'll be entering the second trimester, the most comfortable stage of the pregnancy. Your morning
sickness will gradually disappear, your appetite and your energy will improve, and your babies will be
stronger and more resilient. You'll also start to have a visible belly, so you should change into more
comfortable clothes. Do remember to take your calcium supplements, and make sure you get a good
sleep every night."
After speaking, the doctor simply prescribed some calcium tablets and vitamin supplements and called
for the next patient.
With the checkup report in her hand, Renee cheerfully waved at Margaret, who had been waiting for
her outside the doctor's office, and told her, "It's just as you said! They're perfectly fine! I've been
worried sick for nothing!"
"I'm glad to hear it, Miss Renee! I'm glad to hear it!"
Margaret was smiling from ear to ear. She was glad to see that the Everheart family, after having fallen
from grace, was starting to slowly return to its former glory, not to mention they were about to welcome
the sprouting of two new branches! She was happy for the late Mr. and Mrs. Everheart, who had died
with regrets, and even happier for the late General Everheart!
The two then left the hospital and waited for a cab beside the road.
Renee, however, ever perceptive, could sense that something didn't seem right. She kept feeling the
urge to turn around her.
"What's wrong, Miss Renee?"
"I think we’re being followed!"
Renee maintained a calm and cheerful demeanor as she chatted with Margaret, but she lowered her
voice as a warning of vigilance.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What?" Margaret instantly got nervous. She stretched her neck and looked around her, asking, "We...
We're being followed?!'
"Don't turn around!" Renee reminded Margaret. "Let's just pretend that it's all fine and just walk ahead."
Margaret swallowed her saliva, fearing the worst. She wrapped her arms around Renee and told her,
"Could it be your enemy trying to take revenge on you? I'll protect you, Miss Renee, but you must find
an escape route immediately!"
"Don't panic," Renee calmly told Margaret. "I don't think it's my enemy, because they wouldn't follow us
this far without doing anything."
"Then who could it be?" Margaret wondered aloud.
As they were about to turn a corner, Renee suddenly stopped, and with her back towards that shadowy
figure who had been hiding from her, she yelled, "Stop hiding! I know you've been following me, so just
show yourself! ■
As expected, a tall well-built man clad in black clothes and with a peaked cap on his head slowly
walked out from behind a standing sign.
Never would Renee have expected that her stalker turned out to be Stefan Hunt's best friend, Cecilia
Smith's loyal defender, and the eldest son of the Stuart family-Xavier Stuart.
