Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) novel Chapter 1979

“Could it be your gastritis acting up again?” Henry Armstrong asked.

Right then, Xyla Quest and the others also entered the bathroom. As soon as she saw the state Georgie Clementine was in, the first thought that came to her mind was that she was pregnant.

“Georgie, are you pregnant?” she asked with a joyful expression as she moved closer to her friend.

Kneeling on one knee, Xyla reached for Georgie’s wrist to check on her pulse.

Georgie was stunned when she heard the question, realizing that it was possible.

She hadn’t had her period for at least a month and a half now since her last one. She hardly paid too much attention to it as she frequently missed her period due to work pressure, so it would likely be delayed or early.

If Xyla hadn’t asked the question, Georgie would’ve forgotten about that.

Henry had a sharp intake of breath. “Really? She is pregnant?” He sounded excited at the prospect, thinking there was a high chance since they had a very active sex life.

“Stop talking and let Xyla check her pulse,” Stanley Batton said in a dominant and irrefutable tone.

Everyone fell silent and waited for Xyla to complete her pulse check.

Georgie was indeed pregnant and had been for close to a month.

She beamed at the newly betrothed couple, seeing how nervous Henry had become.

His heart was racing, and so was Georgie’s.

Meanwhile, Xyla and the others were also celebrating the happy news.

“All right, Henry, calm down as Georgie is going to pass out. You should stop. She’s pregnant, so you shouldn’t be doing this,” Xyla chuckled, warning the happy groom-to-be.

Hearing that, Henry promptly set Georgie down and held her face with both hands. “How do you feel? You must be dizzy. I’m sorry, Honey. I was so happy that I lost control.”

She was about to speak when her nausea returned, feeling dizzy from all that spinning. It made the sensation worse.

Retching violently, she cursed in her mind.

Meanwhile, Henry acted like a guilty child who had done something wrong. Kneeling on one knee, he gently rubbed her back.
