It was unlikely for me to get pregnant after only one time.
By the time I arrived at the company and finished the meeting, it was almost evening. I had come with Jane's ride. I was getting ready to take a cab back to the hospital.
Jane offered to give me a ride, and I gave her a sidelong glance, teasing, "I saw you messaging Zachary during the meeting. It's better not to let me delay your progress."

Jane smiled brightly. "Oh, have you learned to spy on screens now?"
"Just a coincidence, just a coincidence." I gave a shy smile.r
She had been sitting at my lower left during the meeting, leaning sideways against the table to reply to messages, so it was impossible not to see.
As I was speaking, my phone rang-it was Frank,This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
"Finished with the meeting?"
His lazy and casual voice came from the other end of the phone, and I couldn't help but smile, "Yes, just finished. I'm planning to go back to the hospital to see Grandma, then head home."
After several rounds of acupuncture from Dr. Travis, Grandma's condition was temporarily stable, similar to an ordinary person's. If I stayed at the hospital all day, she would become suspicious. She had already asked me several times if she was suffering from an incurable disease.
Frank said, "Then come down, I'm waiting for you in the car park.
""You're here?"
His voice was cheerful. "Picking up Charlotte after work is part of my duties."
"I'll be down soon."
My mood lightened as well. I looked at Jane, who was hastily waving her hand. "Alright, go on down. Look at you, so unremarkable. Of course, it's Frank who's come."
"Constantly rubbing it in, it's inhumane.
"You.. I touched my nose and said, "You keep at it, and win Zachary's heart soon!"
With that, I headed back to my office, grabbed my bag, and left.
Outside the office building, the parking garage still retained the late summer heat.
I almost immediately spotted the tall man leaning casually against the car. His broad, defined hands were playing with his phone, his eyes lazily drooping with a cool detachment. He looked particularly unconventional in his nonchalant manner, He seemed to not care about anything.
1 tiptoed over, intending to startle him. Before I could say anything, he suddenly stretched out his long arm without even lifting his eyelids, pulling me into his embrace and chuckling. "What's up? Trying to scare me?"
I didn't manage to startle him; instead, I was taken by surprise. "You didn't even look, and you're not afraid of grabbing the wrong person?"
"Nope." He smirked, his large hand caressing the soft flesh at my waist. "A unique person is impossible to
mistake."
I retorted, "Who isn't unique?"
He seemed amused by this, pinched my face, and looked into my eyes. "To me, you're the only one who's
unique."
My ears turned slightly pink, and I wriggled free to slide into the passenger seat.
I had to admit, this guy was quite skilled at sweet talk.
He rounded the front of the car and got in. As he started the engine, I suddenly thought of something and hesitated before looking at him.
.... might have done something foolish."
He raised an eyebrow, following my lead. "What?"
ffelt a bit embarrassed, "That night... after that, I forgot to take the medicine."
"What medicine?"
Hearing this, I looked up to see a hint of teasing in his eyes and glared at him. "Stop joking around. Aren't you worried?"
"Worried about what?"
Frank took my hand, gently squeezing it, and looked at me with a hint of persuasion in his eyes, Charlotte, how about we have a child? A girl as unique as you."
