You Are The Pursuit of My Life novel Chapter 203

Although she was surprised by Lily's behavior, the obstetrician was smart too. She immediately took Lily's weight, blood pressure, heart rate, and acted busy.

Edric had been standing aside and watching Lily while she did the examinations. After the doctor's checkup had come to an end, he began to ask the doctor about Lily's condition in detail.

The doctor told Edric that the baby was in good condition and healthy. Edric was joyful when he heard this, "She looked so slim so I was worried about her health. I'm feel totally relieved now after hearing your words."

When Lily heard that Edric cared about her, she felt warmth in her heart. Edric then asked the doctor if he could know the babies' gender at that moment.

There was a rule in the hospital saying that they were not allowed to reveal the baby's gender. However, Edric's status was not like others. The obstetrician did an ultrasound for Lily. She said that because of the babies' position, it was not clear enough to see, but they should be two boys. Edric was elated upon hearing this, "Are they really two boys?

You're not kidding me, right? Even if they aren't both boys, they have to at least be fraternal twins. There are only a few males in the Myers family. I was hoping that my son could lead the family."

This was the first time that Edric had so formally talked about the gender of the babies in front of Lily. She had never cared much about her child's gender before. However, now that she saw that Edric valued their babies' gender, she began to care about it as well.

The Myers family only had one male descendent every generation, and they naturally preferred boys more than girls. That was why Margaret liked Eden so much. As for Lily, she had also hoped that she was pregnant with either two sons or at least one son and one daughter. That way, she would have an advantage in both her status and in the family's inheritance. If she was pregnant with two daughters, it would be totally different. With Irene's son standing in the way, even if she could win Edric's affection, she might not necessarily be able to take control over the Myers Group.

Lily kept this in her mind. When Edric went out to answer a call, she lowered her voice and asked the doctor, "Are they really two boys?"

"No, the ultrasound is not clear enough because of the babies' positions. I assumed that he liked boys, so I said that they had to be two boys," the doctor replied.

Lily was very disappointed upon hearing that. The doctor lowered her voice and said, "Let's wait for some time and do it again."

"Is there any way to accurately determine the babies' gender?" Lily asked again.

"Yes, your current situation is suitable for amniocentesis and a blood test. The accuracy rate is 99%," the doctor peered outside.

Lily nodded and planned to go back and discuss with her mother regarding the amniocentesis and the blood test to confirm the babies' gender. It would be best if they were two boys or at least one of them would be, but if they were two daughters, she had to find a way to make up for it as soon as possible.

With such a plan in mind, she warned the doctor in a low voice, "Don't forget to tell him later that it's not easy for me to have a baby. Let him be worried so that he'll accompany me more often to check ups in the future."

Naturally, the doctor promised. After a while, Edric ended his call and came in. The doctor remembered Lily's instructions and told Edric that although the children looked healthy, the mother, on the other hand, was not in good health, so he had to pay more attention to Lily.

After listening to Lily's words, the doctor's words were intended to make Edric care more about Lily due to her babies. However, she did not expect that Edric would become anxious after hearing this, and he asked, "Will her health affect the babies?"

The doctor did not expect that her words would make Edric worry about the babies. She immediately answered, "No, the babies are in good condition. You don't have to worry."

"How can I not be worried?" Edric retorted, "Didn't you say that her health was not good? Her poor health will definitely affect the babies. Lily is now pregnant with two children. Also, I remember that during her previous checkup, she was ill as well. No, this is too risky. I have to ensure that there is nothing wrong with my children's health."

"Edric, I don't think there will be a problem with the children," Lily said.

"Can't I worry? We must exclude all the unfavorable factors. One of the female employees in our company's finance department had given birth to a child with mental disability because she did not do her check ups properly..." Speaking of this, Edric paused, turned his head and asked the doctor in a strict tone, "You are Lily's doctor. Let me ask you, can you guarantee that the children in her stomach will not be mentally or physically disabled?"

Edric's face was serious and his tone was cold. The doctor felt a little nervous. Although the chances of disability were not plausible, there was still a chance of it occurring. If anything happened to the children in the future, she would be in deep trouble. She could not guarantee anything.

"I can't be sure of that. It's just that in general, disabilities are usually because of genetics that are hereditary in the family, or when a pregnant woman comes in contact with something poisonous. In this case, Miss Miller and you don't have any family history of having disabilities, so the chances of the babies having disabilities are low."

"That's hard to say. Lily has always been in poor health. She has taken so much medicine. Won't the medicine have any bad effects on the children? I'm still worried, so we have to approach this carefully," Edric still insisted, "Do you have any way to examine the chances of disability?"

When Lily realized that Edric was being serious, she grew afraid. She hinted at the doctor, but under Edric's threatening gaze, the doctor dared not play any tricks. She said, "If you are worried, I can arrange an amniocentesis for her, but since she is pregnant with twins, there will be a certain risk. I think we should be cautious."

"Edric, the children are fine. I think it's better to not do it," Lily looked pitiful, and her heart was beating fast. Was Edric planning something against her?

Edric looked at Lily gently and said, "I know the chances may not be huge, but aren't you in poor health? I'm very worried about you. For our children, it'd better to check it out, and it would make me feel more at ease."
