Chapter 499 Yancey Was Thoughtful
Some time ago, Harvey proposed to take Meryl as his pupil, but she turned him down. Now, on reflection, she thought playing the cello was actually pretty good. Anne hit the nail on the head. โAre you so heartbroken that you have decided to shift your focus from love to hobbies?โ
โI used to like the cello, but later on, because of Daltonโs car accident, I felt guilty and gave up.โ Anne nodded. โGo ahead. I will unconditionally support any choice you make!โ Meryl smiled. Anneโs words gave her some confidence. Anne suddenly put Merylโs hand on her belly.
โYou know medicine, right? Can you tell me if itโs a boy or a girl?โ Meryl was embarrassed. โI only know a little bit. Do you think Iโm an ultrasound machine?โ โA little bit?โ Anne shook her head, obviously not believing it. โDonโt be so modest. I know you are very capable!โ She was pregnant for only one or two months at that time.
If she had only known a little bit, her conclusion wouldnโt have been so accurate. Meryl hesitated for a few seconds and then gently examined Anne. After about half a minute, she said, โItโs a girl.โ Anne breathed a sigh of relief. โLuckily, all the clothes I prepared are pink.โ
They sat in the living room and chatted for a long time, but Meryl didnโt see Yancey, which made her feel strange. As soon as she arrived, he locked himself in his room. No one knew what he was busy with, and the sound of zippers could be heard from time to time. Curious, she walked over, only to find that the bed in the guest bedroom, where he was staying, was covered with a mass of things, including womenโs socks and pajamas, baby swaddles, baby clothes, hats, feeding bottles, wet wipes, tissues, and so on. There was also a suitcase on the bed.
It wasโฆ โIโm packing for her delivery.โ Yancey was very serious, with one hand supporting his chin, as if he were working on some extremely difficult project. โMeryl, can you help check if anything is missing? Iโll buy it later.โ
Meryl froze there in shock. She really didnโt expect Yancey to be so thoughtful. Anne, at the side, was also taken aback. โYancey, youโฆโ Seeing that she was barefoot, Yancey immediately took out her slippers and stooped to put them on her. โEven though there is heating at home, and you will feel hot during pregnancy, you still have to wear slippers.โ
He was very patient. He squatted in front of Anne and looked up at her. He grinned brightly, his eyes twinkling. โI searched online and found that if you catch a cold just before childbirth, you will suffer a lot. Donโt you want a cesarean section?โ Yanceyโs voice was clear and charming. He stood up and kept his eyes on Anneโs face. โTake good care of yourself, Anne.โ
Warm air from a heater in the room was blowing incessantly against the glass. Anne felt that her cheeks were burning hot, and her mind went blank for a moment. Anne? She always regarded Yancey as a young boy, and so did Anne. However, it turned out he was a pure, affectionate man! Would Anne fall in love with him?
