I laughed and took hold of her hand as we walked out the door.
“Daddy!” She ran to Nathan, who was waiting for us outside the O.R.
“You were brilliant, kiddo.” He picked her up and hugged her.
“You are going to make an excellent surgeon.” Christian ran his hand down the back of her head. “I have to get down to ER. I’ll talk to you guys later.” He walked away.
“I don’t know about you two, but I’m starving. Let’s go grab some lunch before my next surgery.” I smiled as I hooked my arm around my brother.
CHAPTER15
Georgia
As soon as I got the results of Emilia’s bloodwork, I called her into my office.
“All of your bloodwork came back normal. So, the next step is a pelvic ultrasound.”
“Fun.” She wrinkled her nose, and I laughed.
“I can do it first thing Monday morning before we see patients. The only thing is you have to make sure you drink at least twenty-four ounces of water first.”
“Okay. Let’s do it.”
“Have you expressed your concerns to Sebastian?” I asked.
“No. He doesn’t know I’m seeing you about this. He’s been so busy with the restaurants, and his stress level is through the roof with the Brewhouse. I’m not about to unload this on him. I'll talk to him if everything checks out with me.”
“I totally understand where you’re coming from, Emilia. But trust me. He’ll want to know what’s going on.”
“Like you told Jackson about what was going on with you?” Her brow arched.
“I know, and that was a mistake.”
“As I said, I will talk to him after the ultrasound. I promise.”
“Okay.” I smiled.
After she left my office, my phone rang, and Jackson was calling.
“Hey, babe,” I answered.
“Hello, beautiful. I wanted to give you a quick call between surgeries.”
“How did it go with Ella?”
“She was amazing, and she loved it.”
“I knew she would. I called Gwen about the cake.”
“Who?” he asked.
“Gwen, the cake lady. Grace gave me her number. It’s whom she and Jenni used for their cakes. She’s coming over tonight at six o’clock and bringing some cake samples and her design book. Will you be finished at the hospital?”
“Yeah. I should be. If I’m a little late, start without me.”
“Okay. I have to go, babe. I have a patient waiting for me.”
“And I have to get into surgery. I love you, beautiful.”
