Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

Micaela slept until noon.

Next to her, Nico had already gotten up early.

Micaela changed her clothes and went downstairs with her cotton mop.

Before she reached the floor, she saw Nico downstairs, in the open kitchen, banging his head with a hammer, as if he was about to set the kitchen on fire.

Micaela couldn’t help but sneer at him, “Are you cooking or sabotaging, Chef Kee?”

Nico rubbed his nose, strangely embarrassed, “I was just looking at the recipe, who knew frying with a spatula was harder than holding a gun.”

Poof.

Micaela had just approached when Nico pulled her into a hug, “Did I wake you up smashing up the kitchen?”

She rested her chin on his shoulder and kissed his neck lovingly.

“No, too sleepy and it’s time.”

Nico asked, “Are you hungry?”

“A little.”

Nico said, “Why don’t I order takeout, you must be starving if you have to wait for me to finish.”

“Takeout is no good, I’ll go wash up first, then I’ll cook a green vegetable and egg noodles to make a meal for lunch.”

Nico raised a hand to scratch his forehead, “How am I going to do that, making you cook for someone who has menstrual cramps. Why don’t you sit there and show me how it’s done.”

Micaela: “I’m afraid I’ll end up teaching and wanting to do it myself.”

“…” Is it so wasted?

Micaela washed up, drank a big glass of hot water and then let herself be held in Nico’s arms and taught him how to cook noodles.

“Cooking noodles is basically a lazy operation, the water boils, the noodles go in, the noodles boil, then you can add the eggs and vegetables, all cooked and ready to eat. Next, you mix some sauce in a bowl. Just add a little oil, salt, soy sauce, bean paste and chili sauce.”

Nico added salt, two tablespoons, and Micaela saw, “That’s too much salt, just a little, there’s salt in the soy sauce and bean paste and so on.”Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

“…” Forget it, she has no talent for cooking.

Nico said, “Grandma just called and I answered for you. Grandma already knows we’re back together and has asked us to come back to Aqua for dinner tonight.”

“Then there’s no need to make dinner.”

After a quick lunch, Nico contacted the doctor waiting for him at the hospital.

Nico took Micaela’s long down jacket in his hand and threw it over her, then wrapped the scarf around her neck on the floor-to-ceiling coat rack in the foyer. The scarf was so thick that Micaela’s face was the size of her palm, wrapped in it, with only her forehead and eyes showing.

Micaela peeled off her scarf several times, “Nico, are you trying to suffocate me?”.

“How am I going to suffocate my wife, it’s windy out there, bundle up and take it off when you get in the car.”

A very thick snow has fallen in the yard.

It hasn’t melted yet.

Nico didn’t call anyone to shovel the snow either.

At the door, Nico bent down and half crouched in front of Micaela, tapped her on the shoulder and said, “Ma’am, come up here.”

Micaela jumped on his back and wrapped her arms around his neck, “Nico, if you do that, I’ll turn into a baby.”

Nico grabbed her waist and pulled her up, sketching a smile, “That’s not so bad, it’s just going to bother me being a father and husband.”

Micaela leaned over his shoulder, smiling sweetly, and leaned close to his ear to make mischief like an elf, “Daddy.”

Nico squeezed her thigh, “You got the guts to yell again?”

“No talent.”

The gangly man said, “It’s so exciting to scream again. ”

The corner of Micaela’s mouth twitched, “…”

What a thought!

The two men pushed their way into the car.

The silver-gray Bugatti plowed through the thick snow and headed for the outside of the villa.

“This doctor, recommended by Esteban, says he’s from a family of doctors, that he’s been a doctor for generations and that his ancestors were miracle doctors.” Nico was driving while talking to Micaela about this doctor who was about to go for an interview.

Micaela knew she was afraid he would be psychologically exhausted, so she said it to give him some psychological encouragement, but he wasn’t that fragile. “Anyway, there are many girls in the world, I’m not the only one who has menstrual cramps, many girls have menstrual cramps all their lives, it’s not that big a deal.”

Nico is stubborn: “I don’t care if other people have menstrual pain or not, and I don’t care, but I can’t watch you die in pain. I don’t know if this Magpie offspring is a miracle, but if it doesn’t work, it will still work. If the Magpie Bian’s offspring doesn’t work, we will replace it with Hua Tuo’s offspring, and if Hua Tuo’s offspring doesn’t work, we will replace it with Li Shi Zhen’s offspring. There must be a descendant of the miracle doctor who can do it.”

Micaela, who was still in a heavy mood, was made to laugh at his words and scoffed, “When the descendants of a divine physician meet you, it’s like a showman meeting a soldier, they have to tremble.”

“It’s good that they know they are afraid. Nowadays, many doctors don’t treat menstrual cramps as a disease, they just write a few prescriptions and get away with it. It’s good to be afraid, to have fear so you can take it seriously.”

When Micaela thought about it, she was right: “Also.”

When we arrived at the hospital, Nico took Micaela straight to the specialty clinic office.

Micaela was expecting an older doctor, but was surprised to find a young man in his early twenties, oddly handsome and untrustworthy looking.

Nico looked twice at the other man and frowned, contritely, “You know Esteban?”.

The young doctor nodded slightly, “Yes, Mr. Nico.”

“Don’t you have a few gray hairs here, seniority…”

Before Nico could finish his sentence, Micaela had grabbed his hand and was smiling at the young doctor, “No offense, doctor, you have a low IQ.”

“…” Nico looks at his wife a couple of times.

The young doctor was smiling genially, young but old-fashioned, not angry and not daring to get angry; Esteban’s friend must have been a powerful man too.

“Okay, many of the patients who come to consult me talk to me about my age, but in reality doctors, like Western medicine, are concerned with talent, not age, which is more powerful.

This doctor talks a little funny, gets down on people three times and lets them get down on him a few more.

Micaela sits down for a face-to-face consultation.

Sein kindly said, “Ms. Micaela, please give me your hand.”

Micaela put her hand on the table and Sein took her pulse.

Nico stood on the sidelines, not too happy to see another man touch his wife’s wrist, but he put up with it.

This guy better be able to fix Micaela.

No. For half a minute.

Sein pulled his hand away and said, “If it’s just menstrual pain, I’ll prescribe some pills for you to take, and without incident there should be no more menstrual pain the next time you get your period. Menstrual pain is not a big problem, it’s easy to cure.”

Nico said, “But you are dying of pain, are you sure it’s not something else?”.

Sein said, “My pulse shows that Ms. Micaela’s health is fine, but she is weak and her breathing is unstable. If she gets stronger, her menstrual pain will improve.”

Menstrual pain is not a big problem and Nico is relieved.

But Nico always thought he was a quack, “Don’t you check anything else?”

Sein looked at Nico and then looked at Micaela, a wit, and asked, “Ms. Micaela is indeed no big deal if it’s just menstrual cramps. But I don’t think the two of them are expecting a child yet.”

Micaela did not hide and said, “I had a miscarriage three years ago, I can get pregnant, but the probability of keeping the baby is very low, the doctor said there is a high probability of stillbirth even if I carry it, because I am RH negative AB blood type, the probability of hemolysis is very high, and I have low platelets and poor clotting function in the past two years, if I give birth, the risk of hemorrhage is very high, the doctor does not recommend pregnancy. ”

After hearing this, Sein nodded her head and said, “If you have already had a positive blood transfusion and your clotting function is very poor, I would also not recommend having a baby, unless you two have a special desire to have a baby, then you can take the risk and try, but the probability of fetal arrest and the probability of the pregnant woman bleeding profusely in labor will be very high and could be life-threatening.”

Before Micaela could utter the words “risky” and “dangerous,” Nico interrupted, “It’s not necessary, we’re not having a baby. You can just cure my wife’s menstrual cramps and how to manage the low platelet count all together.”

Sein wrote a lab note: “If we are going to treat the low platelets, Mrs. Micaela should do some lab work.”

That lab sheet prescribed several blood tests.

Nico came out of the office with his arm around Micaela to have her blood drawn and tested.

Three main tubes of blood were drawn.

Nico’s face was tense, his brow so furrowed he could have caught a fly.

When Micaela finished drawing the blood, she lowered the cuff and joked, “I thought the doctor would just take a pulse and I wouldn’t need to draw blood, but I didn’t know they were going to put three large tubes in me.”

Nico held the arm from which Micaela was drawing blood and asked grim-facedly, “Did it hurt?”

“It didn’t hurt, it was the same as if I was stung by an ant.”

“Micaela, we don’t want a child, not so much as to risk hemorrhaging in childbirth just to have a child, and that child makes me sick to have.”

Nico’s gaze was fixed on her, his brow full of seriousness and gravity.

Micaela laughed and reassured him, “Why are you so serious? I didn’t say I wanted a baby either, if you say you don’t want one, it’s for you anyway.”

Nico felt vaguely uneasy and hugged her tightly, saying, “It hurts me to see so much blood being drawn, only three tubes of blood, if you’re really pregnant and you give birth and have a hemorrhage or something, I’ll probably collapse before the baby comes down. I’m really scared.”

Micaela hugged her back, stroked her, comforted her, smoothed her hair, “Am I not alive in your arms now? It’s not good health, but it’s not so easy to die.”

Nico wrinkled his eyebrows, “What are you talking about, dead or not, long life.”

Micaela curved her lips and said softly, “I’ll be with you for the rest of your life.”

Nico took her hand, consciously or unconsciously touching the diamond ring on her ring finger, and said, “Whatever you say anyway, except I won’t say yes to you about having a baby.”

“I didn’t say I wanted a baby.”

M icaela’s mind could not be hidden from Nico, who said, “If you really didn’t have that in mind, you wouldn’t have said those things to Sein in there. ”

Knowing he was angry, M icaela leaned into his arms and said, “I was thinking maybe it wasn’t so bad, just dangerous.”

“Just a little more dangerous, didn’t you hear Sein say that the chances of fetal arrest and hemorrhage in labor are high, not to mention you’re not clotting well right now, how can you reassure me?”

Nico was anxious and full of anxiety.

What a shitty way to have a baby, who put that dangerous idea in his head?

Oh, and when we went to dinner at La Villa Rouco last week, was it that Estrella who teased her?

Nico frowned and asked, “Is Estrella the one who shows you the baby and tells you how happy she is to have two children for Adam? Is that why you’ve been thinking it too? Even if your coagulation was fine and you were not a rare blood type, I would have to think twice before giving birth. When you reappeared in front of me alive, I swore I would never put you in danger again. I have seen the pains of childbirth, I have heard cases where people have lost half their lives during hemorrhaging in childbirth, I have heard warnings at the maternity door that a child could not be saved, and it is not an isolated or unlikely event that some people in their right mind would want to save little ones without regard for the safety of adults, it is commonplace.”

“Micaela, I don’t expect much, not for a child, but I wouldn’t want you to take such a risk having one.”

Micaela gave him a hard stare and asked, “How reluctantly?”

Nico got a lump in his throat and was uncharacteristically firm on the matter, cocking a cold eyebrow, “A thousand and one no’s. I don’t care what other people’s families are like, or how many wives other people have, my Nico’s wife is more valuable than everyone else’s, and I won’t let you do something as risky as having a baby.”
