Chapter 20 NEWS

His hands instinctively moved on their own in response. "Sis, how are you? Where have you been?" instead of answering the sender's question, Sonia asked back first.

It didn't take long, Steve replied. "I'm better every day I hope you are too" he replied.

Sonia took another breath and held it until she almost forgot not to exhale when Steve sent a photo of her sunbathing by the pool where she lives in the Netherlands.

A Vidio call can now be seen ringing on Sonia's cellphone screen. He immediately picked it up, now longing for the owner of the face made him breathe again when he heard Steve's voice say hello. "Hi?" who is it?

Sonia flashed a smile immediately. "Hi bro!" she stammered.

"I asked how you were and you didn't answer."

"I'm fine," replied Sonia later.

But it seemed that Sonia's pale face caught Steve's attention. "You look so skinny, your face is very pale too"

"I haven't had enough sleep for a few days and keep getting sick in the morning," replied Sonia, wanting to show that she had morning sickness.

But Steve just nodded. "Son, I have something to say!"

Sonia is now the annoying one. "Me too,"

"Are you the one to say first?" Steve offered.

Sonia shook her head, "Just brother!"

Steve then took a deep breath. "I'm going back to New York maybe staying a little longer,"

Hearing that Sonia was very happy she couldn't hide her happy feelings.

"I'm getting married next month!" Steve continued, which immediately made the beautiful smile that Sonia had just been smiling at wear off.

"Marry?" asked Sonia.

Steve nodded again. "Don't you also know, a lot of news is releasing now. I called to make sure we will be okay after this, I thought you were angry for not asking me anything since the news was released yesterday.

"Ah! I haven't turned on the television lately too, today's rock shows social media," Sonia explained, her voice so low she was shocked like she was struck by lightning.

"Didn't Edward tell you?"

Sonia shook her head again, without further ado, it seemed that Sonia was trying to properly digest Steve's words but she couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in her heart, whether it was anger, jealousy or hurt.

Their call ended, he immediately saw a headline on the internet about the Leonardo family.

Yes! Sure enough, the headlines were the marriage between the eldest son of Mr Leonardo who had a successful career in Pharmacy especially after the launch of the drug he developed last month. It didn't stop there, Sonia was curious about the future wife Steve would marry.

His hand was now rolling down again, and he found a name. Her name is Katrine Halwey, the girl works as an actress but underneath it is also stated that she is a brand ambassador in her husband's company.

Brand ambassadors are people who are invited to work together by a company to become the 'face' or icon of a brand. Brand ambassadors can generally only be invited to work together for a limited time. When a work agreement occurs, they are given very deep knowledge about a brand or product and are required to be able to master it, even though in reality they do not necessarily have used the product.

Brand ambassadors are also required to show love and satisfaction with your brand, through social media or various events created by the company. The advantage of brand ambassadors is that they can attract more people so that promotions can be carried out more broadly in a short time. The downside, however, is that what they say about your product is mostly just an obligation under the employment agreement, and not an honest opinion that consumers can trust 100 percent of the time.

Not long ago Edward came to see Sonia who was busy with her gadget but did not budge at all she just focused.

"Are you still in a bad mood today? I want to apologize if yesterday's events still trouble you!" Edward said, he always apologized every time Sonia lost her fun.

Sonia stopped staring at her phone and now focused on Edward. "Is Steve getting married?" he asked directly with a straight face. She didn't even hear what her husband just said.

"Yeah, the news was released recently!" Edward explained.

The feeling of Sonia collapsing like a heavy burden, she immediately collapsed in Edward's arms. His stomach cramps made him unable to hold back so the cell phone he was holding fell to the floor.

Edward panicked. "Dear, are you ok?" he asked seeing his wife holding her stomach tightly.

"Call Doctor quickly, please!" Sonia said in between holding her pain, she squeezed the clothes her husband was wearing.

"Call Doctor Jack, please!" Jack shouted at the maid in their house.

Sonia patted her husband's chest again. "Obstetrician, don't Doctor Jack hurry up dear I can't afford it if we go to the hospital now," he continued.

For some reason Sonia chose not to go to the hospital. After half an hour a female Doctor came and went up to Sonia's room.

Edward thought his wife only had stomach problems so he wanted a female doctor, to focus more on the uterus because Sonia had been very concerned about him.

"Doc, how is my baby?" Sonia asked panicked and immediately asked the condition of the fetus.

Edward who heard that immediately fell silent he seemed surprised, or confused by his wife's words!

"The baby is fine but because this is a young pregnancy, the lady should get more rest," explained the Doctor.

"Is my wife pregnant Sok?" Edward asked to clarify his hearing.

"That's true sir, but it's still very early so I really need to rest."

After hearing the doctor's explanation, Sonia was sure that she was indeed pregnant, the reason she didn't want to go to the hospital was because she was afraid that Edward would find out her gestational age.

"Honey, why didn't you tell me you were pregnant?" Edward immediately hugged his wife who was trying to sit up on the bed.

Sonia is still thinking about Steve's wedding news, she is sure that the baby is her brother-in-law's seed. "I was scared because the first time I checked with a test pack and the result was two lines, that's why I often get angry even when we eat and you offer me champagne at that time!"

"You're thinking about our baby, I wouldn't be mad if you explained it then my dear!"

Edward was very happy, he felt his struggle Azoospermia surgery was really successful. And finally can be the perfect man for Sonia.

Because he was so happy Edward continued to kiss his wife's cheek even though the Doctor was still in their room.

"I'll take care of you, as well as our baby!" Edward whispered, he almost had tears in his eyes, holding his wife's stomach.
