Pampered Wife's Counterattack | Book 5

867.Too Much Pressure

"Yes, Sir." Bambam turned to leave.

"Wait." Jennie appeared to be deep in thought.

Bambam paused in his steps. "What instructions does Madam have?" Boss had mentioned that her commands were the same as his.

"Since you're investigating Guan Jiping, do a background check on Huang Zhishu as well." A woman who was capable of raising someone like Kai and Somi was definitely problematic herself.

"Understood."

After Bambam left, Lisa and Jennie headed to the main bedroom on the Yu Ting Villa's third storey.

Their bedroom was filled with chaos for an entire afternoon...

In the evening, Lisa headed to the company to work.

Jennie checked the date and realized that her period was late by two days. Could it be that she was pregnant?

Despite their dissatisfaction with her difficulties in conceiving, after having endured one life, Jennie was unfazed by the family's opinions.

However, she genuinely hoped to have a baby with Lisa.

Thus, she secretly visited the pharmacy and bought a pregnancy test. She then returned to the Yu Ting Villa and opened it in the bathroom.

The test revealed a distinct, single line.

She would only be pregnant if there were two lines.

This meant that she wasn't pregnant.

Perhaps, it was because it was still too early and the pregnancy test could not detect it?

The next morning and the morning after, she tested herself again.

Her period remained absent and her disappointment only grew by the day.

On the fourth day, her period still did not come. Thus, she made a visit to Jia Ya Hospital for a blood test.

After completing the blood test, the doctor who received her was Doctor Shi.

Shi Qian explained. "Madam, you're not pregnant."

She nodded. Truthfully, she had understood this from the blood test results herself. "My period is four days late."

Shi Qian nudged his glass spectacles closer. As a doctor, he often heard these words from his patients. "Madam, that is because you're giving yourself too much pressure. This is a common occurrence. I'll prescribe you some medicine to help. Alternatively, if you would prefer not to take it, try to lighten your mood. Your period will most definitely come soon."

"In that case, I don't need any medication." She turned and left the hospital in disappointment. Since she wouldn't be able to conceive, there was no need to take any medication.

Soon after she left, Shi Qian's phone rang.

"Doctor Shi, I heard that my granddaughter-in-law went for a blood test. Is she pregnant?" Elder Manoban's voice could be heard from the other end of the call.

"She isn't."

Elder Manoban sighed heavily. "If you prescribe some medication for her, will it help her conceive earlier?"

"Truthfully, her body is very healthy and there are no issues with her. As a doctor, I wouldn't recommend for her to take any medication. It's just that her body is a little different and she will face a little more difficulties conceiving than others."

When Elder Manoban heard this, he ended the call in disappointment.

Lisa naturally learned of this matter as well. When he returned home that evening, he carefully comforted Jennie.

However, the more he comforted her, the more she wished to have a baby.

However, she quickly thought things through.

She was already beyond lucky to have a second chance at life and to rekindle her relationship with Lisa. It wasn't right for her to be greedy.

She would take things naturally.

In the following month, Jennie inherited the Lee Group and became especially busy with work.

Lisa was also occupied with the Sheng Shi Group and the Manoban family's matters.

However, despite their busy schedules, both of them never worked overtime.

They were occupied with work in the morning, and were busy with each other in the evening...

On Saturday afternoon, Lisa headed out to take care of some matters while Jennie slept in.

She woke up after 10:00 a.m. and reached for her phone to send her good friend, Tzuyu, a message: [Hi, my dear.. It's been a long time since I heard from you. Are you doing well?]
