Loved You Once But He's My Forever (Chloe) novel Chapter 468

"I'm pregnant." Two men turned to look at me.

"You're pregnant?" they both said in unison.

There were already a lot of patients waiting outside the gynecology clinic, and for a moment, everyone turned to stare at me.

After all, Carter and Luke were both very good-looking. People who didn't know us might think I had two men, and they couldn't help but size us up.

I quickly pulled Carter and hurried away.

It was clear that neither of the men had fully processed the news yet.

Carter only knew that I had visited the small town and learned the truth, but he didn't know I had taken that special medicine.

So, he was shocked by the news that I was pregnant.

I threw myself into Carter's arms, overwhelmed with joy and tears.

"Carter, I'm finally pregnant! We're going to have a baby!"

How could Carter not be happy? He was so overjoyed that he didn't even know what to say.

He bent down and held me tightly. "Chloe, my sweet Chloe."

I felt warm tears falling onto my neck and quickly looked up at him—he was crying.

This was a side of Carter I had never seen before.

I reached up to gently touch his face, trying to calm him and tell him not to cry. But I couldn't hold back my own tears of joy. A million emotions choked me, and all I could do was say, "We're having a baby. We're finally having a baby."

Luke stood to the side, staring at us in a daze. His face was clouded with sadness.

Perhaps Luke was reminded of the past—when he was with Wisteria, and I was pregnant with his child.

He pushed me to the ground and ended our baby's life with his own hands.

Today, Carter's reaction was the complete opposite of what Luke's had been back then.

How could he not feel sad?

Carter swept me up in his arms, pressing a kiss to my cheek. "Darling, you're amazing."

I wrapped my arms around his neck. "Put me down, I'm fine.

"The first three months are crucial. We need to be careful."

"There's no need to be so cautious. The doctor said I was in great health, and the baby's fine. In two weeks, we'll be able to hear the heartbeat."

"Still, you need to be careful."

He carried me to the car, while Luke quietly got into the back row of the vehicle.

Carter held my hand firmly. His eyes were filled with such warmth and affection that it felt like they could drown me.

He treated me like a fragile piece of porcelain, afraid that I would shatter if he wasn't careful.

The news of our baby cleared away the dark cloud that had loomed over us for so long.

Back at the Bolton Residence, I was eager to share this joyful news with Jeffrey.

As soon as we stepped out of the car, I noticed Alisa with a slightly rounded belly.

Oh, it had been so long since I last saw Alisa, that I almost forgot how deeply she felt for Luke.

"Uncle Carter, Aunt Zoey," she greeted us politely.

I looked at her gently rounded belly, and because I was also pregnant, I felt an unexpected sense of warmth and connection.

"How far along are you?"

"Almost five months."

She softly rubbed her belly. "The doctor says it's a girl."

"Whether it's a boy or a girl, I'm happy either way. Can I touch her?"

"Of course! I've already felt some strong movements. In another two weeks, we'll be able to do the 4D ultrasound and see the baby's face."

In the past, my baby left before I could feel any movement, so this felt especially surreal to me.

Soon, my own baby would be doing the same.

I bent down and gently placed my hand on her belly.

At this moment, the feeling of motherhood was undeniable. On the outside, it was hard to see, but there was this soft, almost ethereal feeling.
