Early the next morning.
Evelyn, supporting her sore waist, had a blackened face.
This man! He…
Evelyn sighed, dreading to think about the days to come.
Frank conducted a more detailed examination using the blood he drew last time, and the results were due today.
Evelyn rushed to the hospital. Passing by the obstetrics and gynecology department, she had just stepped out of the elevator when she saw a familiar figure.
Tight-fitting pants, a small leather jacket, leaning against a chair with slightly red lips moving, as if chewing gum.
Sophia!
Sophia kept staring in the direction of the operating room, occasionally looking back at her lower abdomen…
She was here for… Evelyn was somewhat bewildered. Last time at the bar, when Sophia was talking to Alexander, she originally thought it was an excuse to scare Alexander, but she didn’t expect it to be true.
At this moment, Evelyn didn’t know whether to reveal herself or not.
Sophia suddenly looked up. When she found Evelyn, she waved at Evelyn. Evelyn had no choice but to walk over and stand next to Sophia, silently watching her.
“Evelyn, you’re trying to avoid me?” Sophia teased.
“No,” Evelyn looked awkward. As she was thinking about how to respond to Sophia, her fingertips suddenly touched something cold.
Sophia grabbed her hand, trembling slightly, and said, “Can you… accompany me? This kind of thing, the first time experiencing it, is quite frightening.” She placed Evelyn’s hand on her lower abdomen and whispered, “Four months, it’s moving.”
“Are you willing?”
Sophia smiled bitterly and was about to reply when both of them heard the sound of high heels tapping on the floor.
Tap, tap, tap… In the quiet hospital, the sound was quite piercing. The footsteps stopped in front of the two.
A woman, dressed in brand-name clothes, stood in front of Sophia, sneering, “It’s you? Alexander’s taste has really declined during the few years I wasn’t in Memphis.”
Sophia pulled Evelyn to sit beside her. She didn’t even glance at the woman.
The woman looked somewhat annoyed instantly, “Bitch, I’m talking to you, are you listening?”
“Don’t think you can cling to Alexander just by having his illegitimate child casually. I warn you, he is my fiancé, and I’m not a kind person. I won’t go easy on a woman like you. If you don’t want to die, stay away from him.”
Sophia dug her ear, finally reacting. She asked Evelyn, “Is it noisy?”
Evelyn frowned, cooperating, “What’s making that noise?”
The woman, upon hearing this, turned to look at Evelyn. The flawless and beautiful face in front of her instantly ignited her jealousy.
“And who do you think you are? Oh! Hanging out with a woman like her, you surely aren’t a good person either.. Going for an abortion together? Look at your behavior, it probably isn’t the first time, right?” She deliberately raised her voice, causing people around to turn their heads, staring at Evelyn and Sophia.
The crowd began to whisper.
“They look pretty, I didn’t expect their private life to be so messy.”
“One is still a homewrecker. ”
“If it were me, meeting such a woman, I would give her ten slaps without feeling guilty.”
Just as the words fell, a ‘slap’ sound echoed in the corridor for a long time before returning to silence. The woman fell to the ground, covering her face, looking at Sophia in disbelief, her expression gradually contorted, “Bitch, dare you hit me?”
She struggled to get up, but as soon as she propped herself up, Sophia kicked her back down. Immediately after, another slap was delivered, “Didn’t anyone teach you how to speak? Let me give you a free lesson.”
“Oh right. I should thank that aunt, what was she reminding me? Oh! Ten slaps.” Her icy gaze swept to the corner. The woman, who seemed thirty but was called “aunt”, dared not make a sound, slipping away through a side door.
The woman’s cheek was now numb from the pain. Hearing Sophia’s words, she couldn’t help but shrink back. She cast pleading glances at the few people around. While those people didn’t dare to intervene, they almost immediately turned their heads away.
“Hey, instead of begging them, why not kneel down and beg me? Maybe I’ll kindly spare you?” Sophia sneered, then turned to Evelyn, “How many more slaps are we lacking?”
Evelyn felt she had overthought it. Just now, seeing Sophia’s vulnerable side, she almost forgot that the woman in front of her was the one who carried Alexander into the hotel.
Under Sophia’s prompting gaze, Evelyn whispered, “Eight.”
“You dare hit me! Alexander will definitely not let you off. Ah…”
Before Sophia could swing her hand on the woman’s face, it was grabbed in mid-air and stopped, “Sophia, what are you causing trouble for now?” Alexander looked at Sophia, feeling a headache,
