Ex-husband’s Regret

Therefore, the cost of medical treatment here surpassed that of public hospitals by a large margin. As a result, the outpatient department wasn't very crowded at this hour.

While waiting for my turn, I felt something else flowing from my lower body again. "Jane, could you go buy me some sanitary pads?"

"Are you bleeding again?"

Jane's expression became even more worried, and she sprang up from her chair. "I'll go buy them. If you have an emergency, call me. Got it? Wait for me here if I'm not back before the doctor's done checking on you. Don't go anywhere."

"Okay." I nodded weakly.

Before feeling unwell, I had thought apart from morning sickness, I wasn't much different from before pregnancy. Now I realized how exhausted I was. I had no extra energy left at all.

"Number 36, Charlotte Wilson, please proceed to consultation room 3."

I sat near the door and entered when called, handing the report to the doctor. "Doctor, could you please take a look? I suddenly started bleeding today."

"Bleeding?"

The doctor glanced at the report, looking serious, and operated the computer. "Your reports from a few days ago were fine. How did it turn out like this today? Did you overexert yourself, eat something that promoted blood circulation, or have significant emotional fluctuations or depression?"

I squeezed my hands and honestly replied, "I... was in a bad mood earlier today."

The doctor, perhaps accustomed to such situations, said, "A bad mood for a day can't cause something this serious. Where are your family members?"

"My friend went to buy things for me..."

"I mean your family, your husband?"

The doctor's face darkened. "You're pregnant, and he's causing you distress. Call him in, I'll tell him some pregnancy precautions. Keeping a pregnant woman happy is the most basic thing! Otherwise, he's not fit to be a father!"

"Ryan, help me! I'm pregnant! Can you assure me the baby is fine? I haven't had a check-up in days, I don't know how the baby's developing.

Jessica, can you calm down a bit?"

"What's up with your attitude? By scolding me now, you're scolding the baby in my womb, do you realize that?"

"Is your baby a weeks?"

onster? Can it hear what I just said in Just a tContent from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

The voices of Jessica and Ryan came from the slightly ajar door.

Why couldn't the two of them just disappear?

"Why aren't you saying anything?" The doctor had the expression of someone who had seen it all. “You should learn from this pregnant woman at the door, involve your husband in the pregnancy, cultivate his sense of responsibility."

I forced a bitter smile. "He's not her husband."

"She's mine."

The doctor looked puzzled. "What?"

"Nothing."

I lowered my voice. "So, do I need to be hospitalized, or what can I do?"

"No need for hospitalization for now. I'll prescribe some medicine for you to take according to the instructions. Go back, rest quietly, observe closely, and come to the hospital immediately if anything seems wrong."

"Okay, thank you."

I took the bill she handed over and the doctor called the next number.

As I walked to the door, Jessica's voice rang out again, causing me to freeze in my tracks.

I had planned to wait until they had left before coming out, but unexpectedly, the next patient that came

in was Jessica. Jessica, with sharp eyes, immediately spotted me, her face darkened.

Standing tall and straight beside her was Ryan.

Bumping into them in this department caused all the blood in my body to freeze.

Jessica didn't give me a chance to escape. She raised her voice and asked, "What are you doing here? Are you pregnant as well?"
