Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick) novel Chapter 182

"Am I pregnant? Whose child is it?"

The answer was self-evident.

"If I hadn't been raped yesterday, in my life, only one man could be the child's father."

"However, when did I conceive it..."

"Did I conceive it at the time of the design competition? In recent days, Patrick and I only made love that day without taking any measures..."

"Is she pregnant? In that case, she surely couldn't keep the child after taking the medicine."

Edwin said calmly.

It seemed that this kind of thing was just a piece of cake for him. And in Edwin's opinion, Assistant Zoey didn't need to have made a fuss about it.

"I'm not going to take any drugs!"

Without any hesitation, I said decisively.

Edwin was a little surprised as he said, "Won't you take any drugs? Little girl, if the child is gone, you can have another one. However, if you are infected with HIV, you will have to

take medicine for the rest of your life."

Edwin's words indeed made sense.

Of course, I knew exactly what kind of disease HIV was.

It was one of the few incurable diseases in the world that had no cure.

Once I was infected with HIV, I could only wait for my death.

For me, death wasn't a horrible matter. And I wasn't attached to anyone else in this world.

I looked up at Edwin, "I want to ask you a question. If I'm indeed infected with HIV, will it affect my child?"

"Well... The chance of a mother passing the HIV on to the child is 20 percent. You are in a special situation. But no matter what you do, you can't completely make sure that your child won't be infected."

Edwin's explanation caused me to fall into despair.

"Even if it's a 1% chance, I don't want to pass HIV onto my child."

The only thing I could do now was...

The conversation between the foreign men before I passed out as well as that between the nurse and me came to my mind!

"Where's that nurse?" I grabbed hold of Edwin

directly, "I'm looking for her!"

Edwin was shocked by what I had done.

I looked at Assistant Zoey and said, "There is something wrong with that nurse just now. She surely knows who is the mastermind behind the scenes!"

After I said that, I saw that the three of them were all confused. It seemed that they didn't intend to look for the nurse. I was so angry that I put on my shoes and planned to look for her by myself!

I walked out of the ward with them following me.

When I went outside, I looked around the whole floor. But almost no one was there.

"Based on your current situation, it is not suitable for you to go downstairs." Another doctor dissuaded me from behind. And I ignored him.

It seemed that Edwin couldn't stand it anymore. He pulled a passing-by nurse and asked, "Where is Cherry?"

The nurse glanced at Edwin with a somewhat complicated expression on her face, "As for Cherry, after she came out of the ward just now, she suddenly said that she would resign. The Head Nurse asked her to leave next month..."

"Resign?" Edwin frowned.

"Yes." The nurse nodded, "But she didn't agree. And she insisted on leaving. As soon as she arrived downstairs, for no reason, she was hit by a passing motorcycle. And she has been sent to the emergency room."

"What?"

All of a sudden, Edwin was stunned!

Leaving us behind, he went downstairs quickly.

I wanted to follow him. But Assistant Zoey grabbed me, "Miss Archer, you are now weak and injured. I'll go and check the situation for you. Wait for my update here." Then, he took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to me, "Your things are in the cabinet of the ward."

After that, he left with Edwin in a hurry.

I looked at the business card which was neat with only two words "Zoey Vernon" written on it.

There were an email box and a phone number below his name.

I walked back to the ward with the business card in my hands, feeling even more chaotic in my heart.

"Is it an accident or a deliberate murder?"

"How could there be such a coincidence?"
