He was a "cripple" after all. He got tired of sitting in the wheelchair. He really needed to find an opportunity to get rid of the wheelchair as soon as possible.

Ariana still hadn't calmed down when she returned to her room. She touched her belly carefully and found that it was indeed fatter. Well, she was pregnant, after all.

She couldn't help but wonder if Theodore doubted her.

With a frown, she lifted her shirt and looked at herself in the mirror.

What should she do? Her belly had grown so much recently. She hadn't noticed it since she wore baggy clothes all the time. If she took off her clothes or if Theodore touched her belly, he would find out she was pregnant.

For the moment, she could still make him believe that she had gained weight because she ate too much recently. But she would surely not be able to hide her pregnancy for another month when her belly would have grown bigger.

Ariana sighed worriedly. At this moment, she began to seriously think about whether she should tell Theodore the truth.

Although Theodore didn't like the idea of having a baby, would he accept their baby now that they loved each other?

After all, it was the symbol of their love, right?

Looking at her belly, Ariana became more confident and planned to find an opportunity to sound him out about it.

After washing her face and brushing her teeth, Ariana went to lie on the bed and stared at the wall in front of her. She remembered that Theodore had just said that he would break down the wall and connect the two apartments.

It would be nice because the apartment would then become bigger and they could even build a home theater.

The more Ariana thought about it, the more excited she became. She began to think about the details of the construction as well as the layout of the rooms and she was already looking forward to it.

She got up from the bed, fumbled here and there, and then knocked on the wall. She was actually imagining herself as a forewoman investigating her construction site.

As Ariana was immersed in her fantasy, a noise was heard from the other side of the wall. Theodore had knocked on the wall as Ariana did.

Ariana sat cross-legged on the bed and knocked on the wall twice.

Soon three knocks came from the next room as a response.

Ariana smiled happily and felt excited like a kid who had just been given a new toy.

She knocked four more times.

Five knocks came from the other side.
