Chapter 1063 Go to the OB/GYN if You're Pregnant
"Yes, ma'am," Alec answered obediently like a schoolboy. Feeling defeated, she nagged
him a bit and hung up.
He put his phone away and decided to let loose since Jenny had learned the truth. He
marched into his study, turned on the lights, and started working.
Then, his phone chimed as a text arrived. He checked the text-it was from Jenny. "Rest
early!"
He lifted his gaze and saw her standing by her window, staring right at him. He had no
choice but to leave the study. This time, he went to rest in the bedroom instead of
working. He wasn't mad at her for being controlling; he was glad she cared about him. She
wouldn't have spent her time keeping a check on him otherwise.

On the next day, Jenny went to work again. Before that, she called Alec, as usual, to check
on his condition. She felt more assured after learning that he was fine. He had age on his
side, but everyone would eventually age. Once again, she reminded him to take good care
of himself.
Jenny was scheduled for outpatient consultations today and was in her office early, waiting
for her patients. To her surprise, her first patient of the day was a familiar face. She stared
at Marigold Wagner, and her gaze traveled to Marigold's baby bump. "You're pregnant?"
"Yes." Marigold nodded, looking a little sheepish.
Jenny frowned and advised, "Go to the OB/GYN if you're pregnant. This is the neurosurgery
department."
"No. I have a headache," Marigold hurriedly explained. She was reluctant to go for a
consultation, especially when Jenny was the doctor on the shift. She would have picked a
different date if she had known.
Jenny realized that Marigold wasn't kidding, and she put on a serious face. "When did the
symptoms start?"
"It started when I was pregnant, but it wasn't too bad back then. Now, it's gotten out of
hand." While explaining, Marigold held her forehead-it was obvious that she had been
suffering from a headache up to that moment.
Jenny had a bad feeling about the symptom. A headache was either a sign of serious
underlying issues or the patient’s illusion when nothing was wrong.
As she prepared for a checkup, she directed her gaze at the baby bump." I'd suggest a
brain CT scan, but you're pregnant now. The scan might affect the baby to a certain
extent."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"How would that affect my baby?" Marigold started feeling nervous.
"Well, I can't be sure. Most of the time, it wouldn't affect the baby too much, but there are
exceptions. It's up to you." The CT scan involved radiation, and Jenny would prefer to
leave the decision-making to Marigold.
She seemed torn but finally shook her head. "Forget about it. Can you prescribe me some
meds that won't affect the baby? I'll go for a checkup after the baby's born."
"Think carefully. If your headache is getting serious, it might be a hint of something bad,"
Jenny advised, thinking that the mother's life was more important than the child's.
Marigold nodded with a smile and replied, "I've made the decision. I think I have a
headache because I haven't been sleeping well and thinking too much after getting
pregnant."
Marigold had not enjoyed a good night's sleep since she found out she was pregnant. She
feared that others would find out about her pregnancy, but at the same time, she hoped
they would. The contradictory feelings tormented her on countless sleepless nights.
