The door closed and Amelia Bright stood at the window to see Danna Keller finally get into the car with one step and three steps back before she was relieved to receive a text message on her phone with a ding.
“I’ll get you some oranges tomorrow, is there anything else you want to eat?”
Looking at the content of the text message, Amelia Bright raised her eyebrows slightly and knocked back three simple and concise words.
“Ground lamb.”
Danna Keller quickly replied, “Yes.”
At night, Farren Austin returned late.
Amelia Bright was sleeping hazily when she felt someone tucking her in, and since she was pregnant, she woke up with a start.
The bed was slightly sunken, he sat on the edge of the bed for a while, I could feel his eyes resting on his face, a long time passed, Amelia Bright was a little tense, before he got up.
But he left the room and went away.
“The only sound in the room was the sound of the door closing, ‘click’, the door lock snapped in the groove, leaving only a few minutes of light coming through the doorway to the house.
Amelia Bright slowly opened her eyes and looked at the closed door with mixed feelings.
She was in Farren Austin’s shoes, he might think he was being unreasonable, but sometimes a woman’s instincts are more accurate than a man’s. He could not trust his own guesses, but she believed that if Calla Moon was up to no good, she would reveal her tail over time.

The next morning, Amelia Bright was awakened by the phone ringing.
The phone was on the bedside table, and the sound of a frying pan rushed in her ears over and over again. She covered her ears for half a day to no avail, so she had no choice but to touch the phone and pressed the answer button by feel, but her tone was impatient.
“Hello?”
” Mrs. Austin, it’s me.”
Amelia Bright glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Dr. Zhao, the chief obstetrician and gynecologist who had taken her for a checkup yesterday.
“Dr. Zhao, what’s wrong this early in the morning?”
” Mrs. Austin, you need to come to the hospital for another checkup.”
“What’s wrong? Is there something wrong with the lab results?”
With the suddenness of the previous Down’s screening result in mind, she was alarmed for a moment.
“There is something wrong, but it’s too early to tell, so you should come back to the hospital.”
Amelia Bright’s heart was in a tizzy, so she hung up the phone and went to the hospital right away.
Dr. Zhao was waiting at the hospital with the test results.
After the blood was drawn, the nurse took the blood sample to the laboratory.
“This is a retest, only blood test, the results will be released soon, Mrs. Austin, please wait here for a while.”
“Okay.”
Amelia Bright pressed a cotton swab against the arm where the blood was drawn and sat down in the chief physician’s department.
“Dr. Cho, what’s wrong? I … I don’t have cancer, do I?”
The worst outcome she could think of was this.
“It’s not cancer,”
Dr. Zhao’s face was a little serious, frowning and saying.
“Are you sure you’ve had two Down’s screenings at Concord before?”
“Yes.”
Hearing that it wasn’t cancer, Amelia Bright was relieved and nodded without hesitation, “Yes, twice, once when I fainted and was hospitalized, and once when I was retested later.”
“Fainted and hospitalized?”
Dr. Zhao’s face tightened, “Are you saying that the previous doctor took a sample and gave you a Down’s screening without your knowledge?”
“Yes, what’s wrong?”
“That’s impossible, it’s simply not in order, if you didn’t offer to do a pregnancy test for Down’s screening, it wouldn’t make sense for any hospital to offer to take a blood sample for you to analyze.”
Amelia Bright faltered slightly, “You go on.”
“Here are the new labs.”
Dr. Zhao put the latest lab slip together with the one Amelia Bright had given him before, and directly circled the two data with the same name with a ballpoint pen, but the data results were very different.
“How could this be?” Her face changed.
Amelia Bright had the medical memory of this body in her head and could see the problem almost at a glance by looking at the simplest of labs. The pregnancy test data shown on the latest one was completely normal and met all the normal pregnancy indicators.
“The results of the retest will be out soon, if it’s not an error in this test, then there’s something wrong with the test given to you by the hospital you were in before.”
Dr. Zhao pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, looking extra serious.
“I probably shouldn’t say this, but Mrs. Austin, you have a special status, I suggest you think about the previous examination, I have enough reasons to suspect that the doctor who gave you the examination before has moved.”
Dr. Zhao was born in a military medical family, and his acumen and observation were higher than those of ordinary doctors, so he could see the problem almost immediately.
And Amelia Bright thought back to all the things that had happened since she fainted and was hospitalized, almost seeping out in a cold sweat, with chills running down her back.
If the baby in her belly was healthy from the start, then why did the doctors at Concordia tell her that there was a problem with the neural tube, and so urgently advised her to have an abortion sooner.
And if Erlina Lee did not know from Aunt Zhou that she was going to have an abortion on the day of the operation and rushed to the hospital to stop her, the baby would have disappeared unnoticed and the pain would have been felt by no one else but her.
What was even more frightening was that Halyn Austin had said something to her yesterday that suddenly flashed through her mind – when Erlina Lee was going to rush to the hospital that day, Calla Moon was trying her hardest to stop her.
“Dr. Zhao, the test results are out.”
The nurse knocked on the door and came back with the retested labs, and the voice speaking pulled Amelia Bright’s thoughts back.
Comparing the two lab sheets, there were only slight changes in the data, which did not affect the fact that the fetus was healthy.
Dr. Zhao’s face was heavy with emotion.
“If the chief hadn’t acted prudently and arranged for you to be re-examined at the military hospital, I’m afraid something big would have happened, I’ll report this to the chief.”
“Maybe it’s a misunderstanding.”
“The results of the two examinations there are the same, and from the initial examination there is suspicion, Mrs. Austin, you have a special status, no hospital dares to treat perfunctorily, so I do not think that such a big thing is a misunderstanding can be explained by the word.”
Amelia Bright looked stunned, she hadn’t thought that such a thing would happen to her.
She didn’t listen to much of Dr. Zhao’s instructions, and for almost the first time since she was reborn as Amelia Bright, her heart was filled with fear. As soon as she left the hospital she called Bohdi Olson and told him about the reversal of the pregnancy test results.
Emily Guan was right next to Bohdi Olson and jumped on the phone when she heard about it.
“What kind of bullshit doctor from Concordia can get this wrong?
Unlike Emily Guan, who only saw the surface of the oops, Bohdi Olson’s voice was cold.
“Tell me clearly, which doctor from Concordia gave you the examination before?”
Amelia Bright sat in the car, the windows and doors were locked on all sides, even so at this moment she is half a sense of security, she held the phone hand shaking slightly, it was difficult to stabilize their voice.
“Kang, Ping Kang, is the deputy director of obstetrics and gynecology.”
“Okay, I’ll find out what’s going on, don’t panic.”
Bohdi Olson knows her best, if it wasn’t for the fact that something fishy had scared her, she wouldn’t have called them both in the first place at this time.
