I Followed My Unborn Baby's Plan のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 8

"Mr. Wagner. Congratulations, you're going to be a father! The report shows that your wife is a little over two months pregnant!"From now on, make sure you take good care of her. Pregnant women tend to be emotionally sensitive, so they'll need extra care and support."The doctor's voice echoed in my ears. I, Steven Wagner, jerked my head up and stared at the report in the doctor's hand.Only then did I dare believe it. I had been reborn.The next second, I heard the thoughts of the baby growing inside my wife Cindy Stuart's womb.'Dad, Mom's going to divorce you after I'm born!'Hearing the exact same voice I'd heard in my previous life sent a chill down my spine.The horrifying memories of dying alone in the hospital came flooding back. It left me trembling in fear.Before I could gather my thoughts, the baby spoke again.'Mom's first love can't have children! That's why she married you. You're just a tool!'Once I'm born, she'll divorce you, take me away, and live happily

'Dad, if I find out you're doing something behind my back that's bad for me, I'll be very upset.'The baby's voice grew increasingly violent. There was nothing childlike about it anymore.At that moment, I made up my mind. I had to find out what was really growing inside my wife's womb.Suppressing the unease in my heart, I pulled out my phone and called my supervisor."Mr. Jericho, I'd like to take the day off."I then texted Cindy.[Honey, come to the hospital. There's something I need to tell you in person.]After that, I hailed a cab straight to the hospital.The entire ride, the baby kept interrogating me.'Dad, where are you going?'Not talking, huh? If you won't answer me, I'll make Mom suffer!'Right after the baby finished talking, Cindy called. Her voice was weak."Honey, my stomach hurts–"The instant I heard her, I rushed over to pick her up.I had to find out what this thing inside her really was.What kind of child would try to make its parents divorce befo

Outside the consultation room, I heard Eric laughing."Doctor, does this mean my condition is getting better?"Cindy chuckled too."Yeah. Eric has looked so much healthier lately."The doctor sounded pleased but also puzzled."Mr. Lloyd's recovery has been remarkable. In all my years of practice, I've never seen someone with late-stage pancreatic cancer recover like this. Normally, there's virtually no chance of a cure, yet his condition is improving at an astonishing rate!""Eric is blessed. Pancreatic cancer won't take him down!"The room erupted in cheerful laughter.It turned out Cindy and Eric had been together all along. I was the fool who'd been kept in the dark.I clenched my fists so tightly that my entire body trembled with rage.The baby's voice echoed again.'Dad, I told you Mom was cheating on you.'Now that you know, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and divorce her!'Is a woman like that really worth holding on to?'I sneered on the inside.'Divorce? If I

At my next scheduled checkup, I ran into Eric.He looked completely rejuvenated. The haggard, sickly appearance he'd worn just months ago was gone. Instead, I was the one who looked like a shadow of my former self."Steven, it's only been a few months. What happened to you?"You look like you're dying."I stared at him expressionlessly."Thanks for the kind wishes. I plan to live a long, healthy life."But I can't say the same for you," I said coldly.My words instantly enraged him. Right there in the hospital corridor, he pointed at me and started shouting."Steven, let's see how long you can keep acting smug!"Do you think you've got much longer to live? You–"Halfway through, he realized he'd said too much. He abruptly fell silent.After a long pause, he continued."Well then, I hope you stay healthy and live to a hundred."After a few more sarcastic remarks, he turned around and walked away.Watching his confident, swaggering back, I couldn't help but smile.I wonder
