Back then, I had been left in the hospital corridor because no one claimed me or paid my fees.
I happened to see Eva and her lover go to the hospital for an ultrasound. They found out she was three months pregnant.
But three months ago, my dad had been on a business trip. This child was obviously her lover's.
So Eva bribed the doctor to change the pregnancy date to two months. She insisted the child was my dad's.
I didn't know what happened after that.
Now, it seemed that Eva had used the same trick from my previous life to calm my dad's anger.
Thinking of this, I quickly put on a cheerful face.
"Eva's pregnant? Am I going to have a brother? Dad, this is great!" I said.
My dad had always favored boys over girls. He divorced my mom because she was pregnant with another girl. He insisted my mom have an abortion.
My mom angrily filed for divorce. My dad readily agreed but demanded she leave with nothing.
Otherwise, he wouldn't let her see me again.
My mom had to agree for my sake. She worked hard in another city for years and visited me a few times each year.
In my previous life, I was supposed to live with my mom after starting college. But I was killed by Eva.
My dad became even happier when he heard what I said.
"Yes! Eva's already one month pregnant! Don't upset her anymore. Stay at school and don't come home unless necessary," he said.
It was clear that this child had completely distracted my dad. He had forgotten all about being cheated on. He was treating Eva like a treasure again.
I had to congratulate my dad. "Dad, what are you waiting for? Take Eva to the hospital for a check-up!"
"No, no need. I already had a check-up. The baby is fine!" Eva said.
Eva looked guilty. She quickly stopped him.
Seeing Eva's expression, I became even more certain of my suspicions.
"Dad, you shouldn't take this lightly. My brother is so precious. You should take Eva for a proper check-up.
"After the check-up, take Eva to buy some jewelry to keep her happy. That way, my brother will grow up healthier!" I said.
My dad only had eyes for his son. Hearing what I said, he immediately nodded.
"Yes, yes, you're right! My son is the most important!
"Let's go to the hospital right now!" he said.
"Honey, how about we go another day? Let's book a specialist next time!" Eva said.
I wanted to sneer. I said, "Eva, you seem reluctant to go to the hospital. Is there something wrong with the baby?"
"Nonsense!"
