Chapter 576: Chapter 576



Exiting the hospital room, Shawn touched Katherine’s shoulder.

“What did you just call me?”

“My future husband.”

“Say that again.”

“In your dreams.”

Shawn pouted, clearly unhappy.

“Why did we come to the hospital?”

Katherine remained silent, lowering her head and taking Shawn’s hand. His hand showed several cuts from the scuffle with Kaleb, with blood still oozing.

“First, let’s get your injuries taken care of.”

Katherine was applying ointment to Shawn’s hand with a cotton swab when the doctor who had just seen her burst in.

“Ah, Miss Nash, glad you haven’t left! Remember, you need another check-up next week!”

“Sure, I appreciate it.”

Once the doctor had left, Shawn looked at her with a hint of suspicion.

“What’s going on? Is there something wrong with your health?”

Without a word, Katherine continued to wrap his hand in gauze, her expression serene.

Unease clouded Shawn’s feelings. Katherine’s condition didn’t seem critical, but it was more than just a minor ailment.

“Darling, we’re about to get married. I need to know what’s going on with your health.”

Looking up with a smile, Katherine said, “Shawn, you’re about to become a father.”

Speechless, Shawn stared at her, his words lost for a long while. He was utterly shocked.

Katherine gently tapped his cheek.

“Hey, you’re drooling!”

“I’m going to be a dad?”

She nodded in confirmation.

Still in shock, Shawn asked again with nervous excitement, “I’m going to be a dad?”

Once more, Katherine nodded.

“I’m going to be a dad!” Shawn exclaimed joyfully, hoisting Katherine into the air and twirling her around the room.

Laughing, Katherine enjoyed his playful antics.

Unseen by others, her heart was heavy when she first saw the test results. The child had come so unexpectedly that she wasn’t ready to be a mother. However, after hearing Shawn’s conversation with Lina, Katherine realized that this decision wasn’t hers alone to make. Her fear of marriage and motherhood had always been rooted in the daunting prospect of raising a child on her own. But Shawn made her feel secure. She truly wanted to have this child for him.

“Honey, I’m so happy!” Tears welled up in Shawn’s eyes. Despite being unprepared, he was ready to embrace this new life with joy.
