Encountering My Infertile Husband at the OB-GYN While He Accompanies Someone for a Prenatal Check-up

I had a sudden idea to surprise my husband, but then I overheard the receptionists gossiping:

"Mr. Carlisle is such a good man, skipping work to accompany his darling for a prenatal check-up. He's so attentive it makes you jealous!"

I was stunned.

First of all, I'm not pregnant, and secondly, Mr. Carlisle is infertile.

Wearing a mask, I leaned in closer, eager to catch some gossip.

"Ms. Carlisle? No way, he's such a serious guy. It's hard to imagine him being so considerate," one of them said.

"You're new here, so of course you don't know. Look at this," the receptionist said, passing over her phone.

A photo had been shared in their gossip group chat.

It was clearly taken discreetly, showing a tall man supporting a woman in a white dress.

The man's eyes were soft, his hand protectively cradling the woman's very pregnant belly.

They looked every bit the loving couple.
