Chapter 10: Doctor's Visit
After hearing Gavin's words, I was moved. He was not the same Gavin who had persuaded me to have
an abortion. I kind of wanted to ask him if he had a twin brother.
After that, the taxi driver, under the threat of Gavin, hurried to the hospital without stopping. Gavin
carried me while I walked to the hospital. I became embarrassed and said, "I can walk by myself. You
can drop me off."
"Shut up. You might fall again, and if something happens, I can't afford to be guilty."
I snorted and let him carry me up the stairs. Gavin found a young female doctor and breathed a sigh of
relief. "Janet, it's good you are here! Can you take a look at her?"
Seeing that Gavin was holding a patient in critical condition, Janet also put away the casebooks she
was reading. Then she asked Gavin to put me on the hospital bed and asked, "What's wrong with
you?"
"I am pregnant. I have just come across something. I have been beaten and I am very uncomfortable,
so I have come in for an examination."
After hearing this, Janet quickly prepared the machine to check the child's condition. After a while she
said, "The baby is fine. You do not have anything to worry about. You just need to get plenty of rest."
Gavin asked immediately, "Does she need to take any medicine?" Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
"She's doing fine. I'll just prescribe her some nutrition medicine. Besides, she does not have a good
rest these days. It's strictly forbidden for pregnant women and has negative effects on the fetus and
her. So from now on, you should not tease her. Otherwise, whether your child can be saved or not will
be our next problem."
The doctor's words sent my heart into a panic. If Gavin found out the baby was his, all my previous
efforts would be for nothing.
To my surprise, Gavin did not deny it. He took the prescription Janet gave him and went to pay. I had to
explain myself, "Doctor Janet, right? Mr. Stone and I are just friends. He saw me being harassed on the
street and helped me out. The kid is not his."
Janet nodded and suddenly realized, "No wonder. I was actually wondering how he could have a child
so soon when he was dumped just a couple of weeks back."
When I heard the word "dumped" I thought of the first time I went to Gavin's house and bumped into
him, mistaking me for his "home service." It seemed that the precious necklace he was giving away
once belonged to his wife. I had always been very curious about their relationships. What kind of
woman would throw Gavin and his gifts out the door?
Gavin did not leave me and Dr. Janet alone for a long time. Then he came back with a lot of bags.
Janet saw him and exclaimed, "God, you bought so many things in such a short time! Where did you
buy all this?"
Gavin said lightly, "Some of it is medicine you prescribed for her, and the rest I bought when I went to a
nearby pharmacy and shop, and the people there recommended it to me."
Janet looked through the things in his bag while clicking her tongue. "You really are a young rich
bachelor in Denver. You bought so many in such a short time. Unfortunately, it's all food that pregnant
women can not eat. You must be really rich!"
Gavin was stunned. "She can't eat them? But they suggested these to me..."
"Oh, come now, Gavin. They sold you these things to make money. Of course they gave you things you
did not need. I can see you do not know what pregnant women can and can not eat. All this is a waste
of money."
