The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 543

Chapter 543: Chapter 543: Second Uncle Stay Calm, Don’t Upset the Baby

In order to lure out the Ear Mouse, Scarlett Jennings decided to return to the Jennings Family the next day.

She had asked the butler last night, and Uncle Ming confirmed that a box of chocolate had indeed been brought back that day, though he didn’t know who took it later.

Scarlett decided to go home.

While she felt it unlikely, but... what if?

Just as her car stopped at the Jennings Family’s entrance, Scarlett got out and ran into the family doctor arriving with the nurse.

She initially thought it was a routine check-up for Old Sir Jiang or Madam Jiang, but unexpectedly, the doctor headed straight to her uncle’s room instead.

The butler explained,

"Since yesterday, Second Master hasn’t had much appetite and has been feeling drowsy.

This morning during breakfast, he suddenly gagged. Old Sir Jiang worried it might be some health issue, so he asked the doctor to check on him first."

Scarlett listened casually and continued to the study to greet Old Sir Jiang.

Meanwhile, inside Michael Jennings’ bedroom, the atmosphere was quite delicate.

Michael Jennings frowned, watching the family doctor cautiously probe his chest with his fingers.

"Hmm..."

Michael Jennings grunted, clearly feeling uncomfortable and embarrassed by the pressing on his chest.

The doctor glanced at his slightly bulging stomach, hesitated, and asked him,

"Mr. Jennings, have you noticed anything unusual with your abdomen? For instance, has it gotten bigger than before?"

It’s not that the doctor intended to ask this way, but among the elders of the Jennings Family, Michael is the only one with a beer belly.

Because of the existing beer belly, it’s hard to tell if it’s swollen or not.

Michael didn’t understand why the doctor suddenly cared if his belly was bigger, but upon hearing this, he felt...

His belly seemed slightly swollen indeed.

Could his nausea and inability to eat be due to excess fat?

But it shouldn’t be.

He has a check-up every year, and although the doctor advised him to control his weight, at his age, slim down isn’t that simple.

He’s not like his big brother or younger brother who regularly focus on fitness.

Just as he pondered, the doctor said seriously,

"Mr. Jennings, considering your various bodily responses and noticeable hormonal changes, I think... you might have something called Male Pregnancy Syndrome."

Finishing his sentence, he glanced at Michael Jennings again and cautiously asked,

"Is there anyone pregnant around you?"

What the family doctor really wanted to ask was if some mistress outside was pregnant.

Because Male Pregnancy Syndrome often occurs due to a wife’s pregnancy period.

Medically it’s referred to as pseudopregnancy, sympathetic pregnancy, or false pregnancy.

The suspicion of someone outside arose because he knew Michael Jennings had divorced recently.

This information hadn’t been publicly announced, but as the family doctor, he knew. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Michael Jennings wasn’t aware of the doctor’s wild imaginations, much less the term Male Pregnancy made him freeze a bit, seemingly unable to believe,

"What did you say I have?"

The doctor had to repeat again, "Male Pregnancy Syndrome, which means false pregnancy."

Upon hearing the term false pregnancy, Michael Jennings felt a wave of darkness in front of his eyes, and in the next second, he erupted with rage, roaring at the doctor,

"What nonsense are you talking about?!"

The outburst was loud enough that Old Sir Jiang, Scarlett Jennings, Madam Jiang, Chase Jennings, and Kingston Jennings all heard it.

When the group rushed into Michael Jennings’ room, they saw him, obviously angry and flushed red, trying to throw a pillow at the doctor.

Old Sir Jiang’s expression immediately darkened, "What’s this commotion?!"

Michael Jennings visibly furious, paused upon hearing Old Sir Jiang’s voice, but turned around with an expression of grievance and unspeakable awkwardness,

"Dad..."

With Old Sir Jiang present, Michael Jennings, however upset he was, could only sit down obediently.
