Chapter 862 – #97. Lanna (22)
It is said that if you have children in vitro, you are more likely to give birth to twins.
But she was naturally pregnant with triplets.
Kungdeok! Kungdeok! Kungdeok! Kungdeok!
Kungdeok! Kungdeok! Kungdeok! Kungdeok!
Kungdeok! Kungdeok! Kungdeok! Kungdeok!
“Can you hear the heartbeat?”
“Yes.”
“All three babies are doing well. Congratulations.”
“Oh, thank you.”
She said she could feel relieved because she could clearly hear the little boy’s heartbeat.
“Because they are triplets, it will put a lot of strain on the body. They are older and have a higher risk of premature birth, so I do not recommend overdoing them.”
“Then there’s something you’re doing right now, so should I quit?”
“I recommend taking a break if it doesn’t put too much strain on your family budget. Since you’ve experienced pregnancy, you probably won’t know at all, but it’s going to be very different from when you have only one child. First of all, the burden on your body is tripled. “
The doctor gave me diligent advice on what to watch out for.
I have two children, and I was embarrassed to think it was so different.
“You have to be very careful.”
“You’ve had a lot of trouble raising one child.”
“…That’s right.”
“But now there are three babies growing inside the belly. How hard can a mother’s body be? Even if she gives birth to only one child, her body is greatly damaged.”
“Yes.”
Thanks to the nutritional supplements her husband gives her, her body is not seriously damaged and she regains her health, but other people do not receive such benefits.
“That’s why you have to be careful in advance. The mother’s body must be healthy so that the babies can grow up well.”
“Yeah…That’s right.”
It is a body that has to raise three children.
She didn’t think she would be able to forgive herself if she overworked herself and caused problems with her babies.
‘Should I really have a professional manager?’
Now that I heard the triplet’s heartbeat, I couldn’t ignore the doctor’s words.
She was just trying to get her to work by working at her company until she was full, but the fact that she couldn’t do that was making her worry.
Going to the hospital regularly is something to do while waiting for three children, but there are more things left to do than that.
Preparing to move…
“Brother?”
“Dongsaeng!!!”
I also had to tell the kids that they were going to have younger siblings.
They went to her hospital together, and her husband gave her her new nutritional supplement.
Having experienced how effective the nutritional supplements her husband gave her when she was pregnant, she accepted the nutritional supplements obediently.
“This is a must-have.”
“I have some medicine from the hospital, can I take it with you?”
“Um…You just need to take the medicine I gave you. You don’t have to take a lot of medicine.”
“Oh~!”
“These pills protect your body, and these pills help babies grow up quickly.”
“These two eggs have so many different functions?”
“It’s that important, so make sure to eat it. Don’t forget it, okay?”
“Yes.”
I wanted to ask where the hell did you get such a great nutritional supplement.
‘Can I ask?’
The words her mother had told her.
A voice telling me not to open Pandora’s box came to my mind like an auditory hallucination.
But isn’t she herself pregnant with triplets?
She had five children, and it occurred to her that there was no way she would break up with her if she asked.
Empowered by the sudden courage, I couldn’t resist the urge and opened her mouth.
“Can I ask where you got this supplement?”
“…Have you not taken it without saying anything? Have you ever wondered?”
“I’ve been curious about it for a long time. But it seemed like I shouldn’t ask, so I held back.”
As soon as I asked, I regretted it.
I wonder if it would be better to just say that you don’t have to tell me now.
If you’re going to regret it this quickly, you shouldn’t even start.
“Hmm…”
Her husband didn’t give a quick answer and started thinking about it.
Her heart pounded too! She sat down
“If it’s difficult to say, you don’t have to.
I said that I would try to fix it, but I don’t know why it looks so pathetic.
Her husband put a hand on her back to soothe her startled heart.
“Your face is pale. Did you make me so nervous for asking that?”
“…I was worried that I might have touched a sensitive part.”
“It’s not that sensitive. I didn’t say anything specifically because I don’t know how you’re going to take this.”
You didn’t tell me because you didn’t know how I would take it?
Lanna couldn’t figure out how to take this, so she blinked.
“How should I say it…You can’t imagine how many years I’ve been thinking about it.”
“?”
Her husband’s hand on her back travels down her waistline to hers.
“I imagined a lot of things, but most of them drew a picture of you leaving me. I guess I didn’t have the confidence.
“You were trying to… Explain?”
“Yes. But no matter how hard I tried, I wasn’t sure that you would choose me.”
“Did you really think that? That’s ridiculous. What do you think you lack?”
Lanna couldn’t believe that her husband had thoughts similar to hers.
You must be kidding.
Compared to him, she should be afraid of being abandoned, and he has no reason to be afraid.
“I have a pretty big secret to hide from you.”
“I would never think of breaking up with you, no matter how much I keep secrets.”
She suddenly had a nightmare.
She lost her child and she told him to break up with her.
‘Did I just talk about my dream?’
Could it be that the story of the dream made it more difficult for her husband to reveal the secret?
I laughed out loud when I realized that we were having the same concerns.
I don’t know why we should be afraid of not being honest with each other and of being abandoned.
“Isn’t it funny? The two of us are worried about the same thing. We already have two kids, and you have three of your kids in our wombs. But we’re just noticing each other and getting restless. What the hell is wrong with us?”
“You didn’t do anything wrong. I did it. I made a secret that shouldn’t be between husband and wife.”
“I thought it would be better to keep it buried if it was a truth that would shake things up between us. That’s why I decided not to ask.”
When her husband said this, I was terrified.
I have no idea what the hell he is trying to say, and I keep thinking that it would be better if I just didn’t listen.
“Can’t I just not listen?”
Trembling with her anxiety, Lanna squeezed her husband’s hand tightly.
Her tension made her face pale, and her husband’s hands were formidably cold.
He was also very tense.
“I thought a lot too. I wondered if not talking would be the right thing for each other.”
Then you can’t do it.
But her husband seemed to think it was right for her to be honest when the opportunity came.
“Are you going to do it anyway?”
He won’t bite your horse if you ask him not to.
She didn’t know much about her husband, but she had a keen eye for the determination of the man she lived with.
“I think I have to do it now. I’m convinced that if it’s a little bit bad… You’re not going to leave me.”
“Are you talking about the girls?”
“Ha ha, yes. Is it too bad?”
“With five children to live, I’m sure I can’t run away. It’s unbelievably cruel to take a dad from kids.”
In fact, it was because of the child that Lanna also impulsively tried to open Pandora’s box.
She is raising as many as three of his children in her belly, and she wondered if she would abandon such a woman.
Of course, that impulse was not courage, but recklessness.
“Think of me as having a heart that doesn’t want to let you go, even if you do such a bad thing.”
Said her husband sullenly as he fingered her hand.
Her appearance was like an abandoned puppy, and she felt bad.
Didn’t she also suffer from the thought that she might be abandoned by the person she loved?
Her heart became desperate because she did not know how the other person was feeling.
She made up her mind that no matter what secret she hid, she would never leave this person.
“Do you think I’ll get angry if I tell you the secret?”
“Um… It must be hard not to get angry.”
“Then do it later, not now.”
“When later?”
“Now that the triplets are just around the corner, they say there’s a risk of miscarriage. Your secret is a secret, and you can’t hurt your babies with it.”
She had the idea that if she took supplements she wouldn’t have a miscarriage, but it was clear she wasn’t ready to accept her truth just yet.
“Since I hid it well until now, please wait a little longer until I prepare my mind. Even for the sake of my children.”
“…Of course. I guess I was too hasty. I didn’t think of you and the child because if I didn’t tell you when the opportunity came, I wouldn’t have the next opportunity. I’m sorry.”
I don’t know why it’s so cute to see her weak side with her husband looking sullen from earlier.
She felt the urge to bite her husband’s hard cheek.
‘Because I’ve had very few opportunities to see him so weak.’
I don’t know what big secret he’s hiding, but looking at such a cute and charming husband, I wonder what’s the use of it all.
The least shocking thing would have been to hear that he had another woman…
‘It’s something I’ve been preparing for since before.’
So if another woman pops out of his mouth, she won’t be shocked as if she gets stabbed in the back of the head, even if her stomach hurts.
‘And what else could there be? Identity?’
It wasn’t once or twice that I felt suspicious about him.
Maybe he is a secret agent from a drama or movie.
And he met her under a false identity and started a family.
‘Omg! Really, what should I do?’
Isn’t it a flaw that men go out with other women these days?
There was no way he would have been so trembling over something like that.
‘Then the secret related to the company…Status?’
The idea that the company he works for is suspicious has been a constant thought for a long time.
He hadn’t heard what the secret was yet, but he had a hunch that his secret might be bigger than he thought.
‘If it’s a secret agent… That much money is understandable. Everything from a good body to a good network!’
Knowing that her husband had similar concerns to her, Lanna felt more comfortable with her.
It was only natural when I realized that I wasn’t alone in my anxiety.
Relatively free, she began to guess what her husband’s secret was.
She still wondered a lot about what her husband might be hiding, but her curiosity wasn’t as choking as before.
What’s more, now her husband could hear her secrets whenever she was ready.
