Zoe was deeply hurt and couldn’t hide her emotions. She began to explain herself. She had found an article about dogs sensing their owner’s pregnancy, which piqued her interest. Wondering if that was the reason behind Rex’s odd behavior, Zoe texted an old friend who had recently been pregnant to ask for advice. Her friend confirmed that she had experienced similar signals when she first became pregnant.
Driven by this hunch, she drove to the gas station to buy a pregnancy test. To her astonishment, her intuition had been right. She was indeed pregnant. However, fear had gripped her heart. Her family had a history of early miscarriages, and that fear had held her back from sharing the news with George. She wanted to wait until they had passed the precarious stage before telling him.
