“Nate, what’s the matter?” Lucinda probed, not allowing him to dodge the question with vague answers.
“You know how much you’ve suffered because you didn’t tell me the truth before. If you dare to keep things from me again, you’ll get a lesson once I’m back on my feet!”

Intimidated by her strong resolve, Nathan finally caved in.
After pondering for a moment, he decided to be honest.
“Remember that I was poisoned with the $404 Virus?”
“Yes, I remember,” she replied, concern etched on her face.
He dropped his head and went on, “Well, now that the babies are born, I want to take them to the lab for a thorough check-up some time soon. And, you… Once you’re discharged from the hospital, you need to get yourself checked too.”
The seriousness of this issue weighed heavily on him as it directly impacted the future of their family.

Lucinda looked serious and worried as she expressed her concerns.
“They’re still so little, and it’s heartbreaking to make them undergo those tests. I can’t bear to see them in pain.”
“Lucinda, they need to do the tests as soon as possible. The sooner the better. If there’s something wrong, we can get them treated immediately with Aldric’s help.”
The thought of the blood collection procedure being painful weighed heavily on Lucinda’s heart. She couldn’t bear the idea of putting them through such discomfort at such a tender age.
“Not now. They’re still too young and delicate. Let’s keep a close eye on them. I believe they’ll be alright without subjecting them to this painful test so early.”
Nathan nodded and brought a spoonful of nutritious porridge towards her mouth.
“Alright.”
Lucinda turned her head away, stubbornly refusing to eat any more.
With a slight sigh, Nathan ended up putting the spoonful of porridge into his own mouth and swallowed it with care.
After a moment of silence, she gazed at him with a somber expression and asked, “Nate, if I hadn’t made you speak earlier, would you have found a chance to take the babies to the lab without consulting me?”
As he scooped the porridge, Nathan suddenly halted, his eyes widening with surprise. Immediately, he lifted his head, flashing a reassuring smile.
“Why would I ever do that? It’s essential for us to discuss this together. After all, they’re not just my babies. I can’t make such a decision on my own.”
“I’m glad you think that way,” Lucinda replied.
She decided not to press further on the topic.
Nathan let out a breath of relief, realizing how close he had come to a potential argument. If he had revealed his true thoughts, she might have given him another good beating once they were back home.
