Chapter 1580Chapter 1580
After Stefan and Renee had confided in each other that night, Stefan felt a lot more relaxed, like a
burden had been lifted from his shoulders. Early the next morning, he booked the best private
obstetrics hospital for Renee's pregnancy check-up. However, Renee took her sweet time to wake up,
and she seemed absent-minded.
"What's the matter?" Stefan realized something was wrong and asked gently.
The link to the origin of this information rests in n0v3lebook.org"Well, I've just gotten pregnant. Isn't it too soon to get a check-up?" Renee asked hesitantly.
"Too soon?" Stefan frowned in confusion. "Shouldn't people get a full check-up right after they learn
that they're pregnant? I actually wanted to get you an appointment with a specialist last night."
"No, it's too fast. Why don't we wait a little..." Renee reached out, feeling the warm sunlight on her
palms. "The weather is nice today, so why don't we go sunbathe in the garden?"
Stefan looked out of the window and saw that it was indeed bright and sunny outside, but he felt like
Renee was purposely trying to avoid the check-up. He held her hand and asked softly, "Is there
anything troubling you, or are you worried about something?"
"Ah, you found me out." Renee smiled awkwardly in Stefan's direction and said reluctantly, ‘Do you
think it's suitable for
me to go out? I'm afraid of embarrassing you." After being bullied by a child in the supermarket and
humiliated by someone's fans, her self-esteem and confidence had suffered greatly. Honestly, she had
lost the courage to go to public places.
"What are you talking about?" Stefan felt sorry for Renee as he looked at her pitiful expression. "It's my
fault that I didn't protect you. I promise I won't let you suffer like that again.""That's not it. You can't always be with me, and the malice won’t stop. People might make casual
remarks, but I'll be upset over their comments for a long time. I'm not strong enough to endure that
now, so I think I'd better stay home. I'll go out after I get used to this. What do you think?" Renee
patiently explained to Stefan. People always tried to motivate her, saying that she should be brave and
strong. They felt that she should learn to face these challenges, but they didn't know that sometimes
people didn't have the energy and confidence to. Sometimes, they just wanted to hide from the rest of
the world.
Stefan was silent for a while, then asked carefully, "Is that what you think?"
"Yeah. I don't want to go out and meet anyone other than all of you. I don't want to be strong or bold; I
just want to take refuge here for a while. Can I do that?" Renee finally revealed her inner thoughts. In
the past, she had forced herself to face any challenge even though she felt weak, but now... she didn't
want to pretend anymore. Why couldn't she be weak?
"Okay, do whatever makes you feel comfortable. I'll always support you."
