The next morning, Estrella Berrocal headed straight to Jonathan Tasis’ office as soon as she arrived at Yahua Film and Television Company.
Irene Guillén always felt that something wasn’t right, where was that Estrella Berrocal going when she arrived at work first thing in the morning and ran out of the office?
Irene Guillén hid in a corner and saw Estrella Berrocal pressing the elevator button, which was facing upwards.
Did you arrive at the office first thing in the morning to try to seduce Brother Jonathan?
The bitch!
As soon as Estrella Berrocal entered the elevator, Irene Guillén pressed it as well.
I wanted to see how Estrella Berrocal was going to seduce Brother Jonathan in the office so early.
This time, I had to catch Estrella Berrocal in the shameless act!
…
Estrella Berrocal took the chip to Jonathan Tasis’ office.
As soon as he arrived at the office, Jonathan Tasis smiled and said, “You just arrived at the office and came to see me, so it looks like what I want, has already arrived….”
Estrella Berrocal pulled the smart chip out of her pocket and handed it to Jonathan Tasis on his desk, “I stole what you wanted and gave it to you, I want no part in what happens next.”
“Look at you, you’re not happy, Estrella, is it that you can’t let Adán Rouco go like that?”.
Estrella Berrocal squeezed his palm, “None of your business.”
“Guess how Adán Rouco would react if he knew that you had stolen my last chip from the Rouco Group?
Estrella Berrocal’s watery eyes were shaking hard as she stared at Jonathan Tasis and frowned, “What do you want?”
Jonathan Tasis fiddled with the chip and said, “I don’t want to do anything, I’m just curious about Adam Rouco’s reaction.”
…
Irene Guillén, who was listening from outside the door, made an astonished face.
I had no idea that this Estrella Berrocal was working with Jonathan Tasis to steal the Rouco Group’s secret documents!
If Estrella Berrocal was convicted of trade secret theft, she was going to jail for at least three to five years!
If Adán Rouco finds out about this, she will be sued to death!
Irene Guillén heard the sound of footsteps coming from inside and turned and left the apartment in a hurry.
…
Estrella Berrocal was about to leave the office when a sudden rale came to her throat.
He covered his mouth and stood in the doorway, clutching his chest with some difficulty.
What was wrong with him for the last two days, why did he always feel like throwing up, had he eaten something bad?
Jonathan Tasis watched her reaction and suddenly asked, “You’re not pregnant, are you?”
Estrella Berrocal shuddered and immediately denied: “No way! You’re thinking too much, I just have an upset stomach”.
She hurried out of Jonathan Tasis’ office, the discomfort still raging in her chest, and when she returned to the design department, Irene Guillen was giving her a manicure with nail clippers.
As soon as Estrella Berrocal returned to her job, Irene Guillén warned her: “I’m warning you, Brother Jonathan is mine and you better not take him away from me! If you don’t, don’t blame me!”.
Estrella Berrocal was about to speak when another fierce nausea hit the back of her throat: “Vomit…”
He covered his mouth and ran to the bathroom.
Irene Guillén was furious: “Is what I said that disgusting!
No, Estrella Berrocal is reacting as if she were pregnant!
Estrella Berrocal is not pregnant with Brother Jonathan, is she?
Irene Guillén chased her into the bathroom, where Estrella Berrocal was lying on the toilet, vomiting up all the breakfast she had eaten this morning!
Irene Guillén fiercely asked, “Estrella Berrocal, are you pregnant?”.
Estrella Berrocal slumped and said with derision, “Do I have to inform you if I’m pregnant or not?”.
“You! Hmph! I’m afraid you don’t even know which man you’re pregnant by!”
Irene Guillén crossed her arms, sarcastic.
Estrella Berrocal, unconcerned, got up in her arms, went to the sink, rinsed her mouth, washed her face, looked at her weak, pale face in the mirror and frowned slightly.
Irene Guillén grabbed her arm and asked, “Are you pregnant or not?”.
She pushed Irene Guillén’s hand away in disgust, “Is it your turn to question me about my affairs?”
Estrella Berrocal turned around and walked straight out of the bathroom while Irene Guillén gritted her teeth in indignation.
“Estrella Berrocal, even if you were pregnant, I would never let you give birth to this feral child!”.
…
In the afternoon, Estrella Berrocal was so confused and weak that she could not stand it any longer, so she asked permission from the director and went to the hospital.
When she arrived at the hospital, she registered first with a gastroenterologist and then with an unsure gynecologist.
When she went to the gastroenterology service, the doctor asked her, “Have you eaten any raw, cold, spicy or impure foods lately?”
Estrella Berrocal shook her head, “No”.
“Do you have any pain in your abdomen?”
“No.”
“Diarrhea?”
“No diarrhea.”
The gastroenterologist put down his pen, looked at her, and asked, “Are you married?”
Estrella Berrocal became a little nervous: “No, doctor, what’s wrong with me…?
“You’re reacting, kind of like a pregnancy reaction, there shouldn’t be anything wrong with your digestive system.”
Estrella Berrocal immediately returned to the gynecology department.
After her exam, she sat in the waiting room of the gynecology department for a long, long time.
All around them were pregnant women with their wombs held by their husbands.
She thought back three years ago, when she was a surrogate mother and pregnant with Paulita. At that time, she couldn’t eat or sleep well, partly because she was pregnant and partly because she was worried about her father.
But the reality was so stubbornly cruel that the golden owner of her surrogate womb would turn out to be her father’s murderer.
A slight smirk tugged at the corner of his lips.
She looked down at the diamond ring on her ring finger and stroked it gently, her mind blank, when the pregnant woman next to her suddenly spoke to her.
“That’s a very nice ring, miss, where did you get it?”.
Estrella Berrocal looked at the pregnant woman speaking to her and smiled, “Oh, I don’t know.”
“Your husband bought you a wedding ring, didn’t he? It’s such an elegant and generous style.”
“Thank you.”
“Number 261, Estrella Berrocal, please come to consultation 3.”
Then Estrella Berrocal got up and entered the room.
The doctor looked at the reports and after a few seconds, he suddenly said to Estrella Berrocal: “Congratulations, you are pregnant”.
A thunderstorm exploded in Estrella Berrocal’s head: “That’s impossible … How, how is it possible … Doctor, can it be a mistake?”
“There is no mistake, according to the report and the time of your last period, you are about three weeks pregnant.”
Three weeks?
Three weeks ago … she did have sex with Adán Rouco many times, but, each time, she remembered to take the pill.
“But doctor, I took the pills afterwards, why would I still be pregnant?”.
The doctor looked at her with a frown, “If you had taken the pills on time, you wouldn’t have had to get pregnant, now as long as you take the pills on time afterwards it is impossible to conceive a child, go home and ask your husband if he has changed your pills…”
Being a gynecologist for so long, they, the doctors, have seen many strange things, some of them are wives who do not want to have children, husbands who do, changing their wives’ birth control pills to vitamin pills, it is not unheard of, or the woman wants to have children, the man is still doing measures, the woman has done something to the condom category.
