Chapter 667: Checking Whether the Baby in the Belly is a Boy or a Girl
Edward Jackson had never been as excited as he was now, he held his breath and stared at her with his peach blossom eyes, radiating an intense light. But he was also holding himself back, as if afraid to scare her. His hands at his sides turned into fists. Still, he maintained a smile at the corners of his mouth, encouraging her to speak.
Enna Clark bit her bottom lip, feeling awkward having to call someone she had just met ‘Uncle’. Just as she was about to give up, she saw his restrained clenched fists.
For some reason, it suddenly became easier for her to say it.
Her clear and bright eyes met Edward’s anticipation filled gaze. Bravely, she called out, “Uncle.”
For a moment, Edward’s eyes were filled with tears.
But it was only for a moment, he regained his dignified composure and swelled chest, asked in a hoarse voice that betrayed the tremor of excitement, “What did you call me? Could you please say it again?”
Enna’s nose tingled, and she called out once more, “Uncle.”
Edward’s eyes lit up instantly, and he sprang up with boyish enthusiasm, “Is there anything you want? Jewelry? Clothes? Handbags? Shoes… Oh right, cars, pianos… whatever you want, ‘Uncle’ will buy for you!”
“…” Enna looking at his reaction, felt relieved. She smiled and shook her head, “I don’t really want anything.”
“Then…” Edward couldn’t think of anything else to offer her on the spot.
He had been around many women, but none of them were his niece.
For the women he had been with, sending jewelry and accessories was enough. But, for his niece, he was really at a loss about what to do.
After all, he had never tried to win over a woman’s heart.
In his eyes, giving jewelry, designer watches, and cars would make a woman happy.
Watching Edward seem to still be determined to find something to give her, Enna thought for a while, then patted her belly, “If it’s possible, could you please find a way to check whether the baby in my belly is a boy or a girl?”
She had just thought of it and said it on the spur of the moment. Although she wanted to know whether the baby was a boy or a girl, she believed it should not be possible to determine the gender of a baby just two months into pregnancy.
Unexpectedly, Edward agreed immediately, “Yes, I can. I’ll arrange it for you right away. Give me a moment.”
“…” Enna was taken aback, was it really possible? She had only mentioned it casually.
Just as Edward said to wait, Enna really only had to wait twenty minutes.
Twenty minutes later, Hayes, blond and blue-eyed, hurried in with a medical team.
Edward had successfully concealed his joy. His attitude toward others wasn’t as warm as it was towards Enna. Even though he still appeared as a gentleman, one could still feel an underlying sense of threatening dominance in his politeness.
“Conduct an examination for Ms. Clark.”
The physicians were obviously feeling the pressure. They bowed their heads and went to Enna’s side, “Ms. Clark, please extend your left hand. We need to draw some blood.”
Enna extended her left hand. The physician helped her secure a venous pressure band, withdrew half a tube of blood, and then carefully placed the blood into a box.
They then turned to Enna and Edward and said, “Master, Ms. Clark. The test results will be available tomorrow at the earliest. This technique we employ has not been completely successful yet, therefore, the accuracy rate is only 70%. I will try my best to increase the accuracy rate for Ms. Clark by conducting a few more tests.”
