Substitute Her to Love You (Charlotte and Patrick)

Chapter 182

"Am I pregnant? Whose child is it?"

The answer was self-evident.

"If I hadn't been raped yesterday, in my life, only one man could be the child's father."

"However, when did I conceive it..."

"Did I conceive it at the time of the design competition? In recent days, Patrick and I only made love that day without taking any measures..."

"Is she pregnant? In that case, she surely couldn't keep the child after taking the medicine."

Edwin said calmly.

It seemed that this kind of thing was just a piece of cake for him. And in Edwin's opinion, Assistant Zoey didn't need to have made a fuss about it.

"I'm not going to take any drugs!"

Without any hesitation, I said decisively.

Edwin was a little surprised as he said, "Won't you take any drugs? Little girl, if the child is gone, you can have another one. However, if you are infected with HIV, you will have to

take medicine for the rest of your life."

Edwin's words indeed made sense.

Of course, I knew exactly what kind of disease HIV was.

It was one of the few incurable diseases in the world that had no cure.

Once I was infected with HIV, I could only wait for my death.

For me, death wasn't a horrible matter. And I wasn't attached to anyone else in this world.

I looked up at Edwin, "I want to ask you a question. If I'm indeed infected with HIV, will it affect my child?"

"Well... The chance of a mother passing the HIV on to the child is 20 percent. You are in a special situation. But no matter what you do, you can't completely make sure that your child won't be infected."

Edwin's explanation caused me to fall into despair.

"Even if it's a 1% chance, I don't want to pass HIV onto my child."

The only thing I could do now was...

The conversation between the foreign men before I passed out as well as that between the nurse and me came to my mind!

"Where's that nurse?" I grabbed hold of Edwin

directly, "I'm looking for her!"

Edwin was shocked by what I had done.

I looked at Assistant Zoey and said, "There is something wrong with that nurse just now. She surely knows who is the mastermind behind the scenes!"

After I said that, I saw that the three of them were all confused. It seemed that they didn't intend to look for the nurse. I was so angry that I put on my shoes and planned to look for her by myself!

I walked out of the ward with them following me.

When I went outside, I looked around the whole floor. But almost no one was there.

"Based on your current situation, it is not suitable for you to go downstairs." Another doctor dissuaded me from behind. And I ignored him.

It seemed that Edwin couldn't stand it anymore. He pulled a passing-by nurse and asked, "Where is Cherry?"

The nurse glanced at Edwin with a somewhat complicated expression on her face, "As for Cherry, after she came out of the ward just now, she suddenly said that she would resign. The Head Nurse asked her to leave next month..."

"Resign?" Edwin frowned. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

"Yes." The nurse nodded, "But she didn't agree. And she insisted on leaving. As soon as she arrived downstairs, for no reason, she was hit by a passing motorcycle. And she has been sent to the emergency room."

"What?"

All of a sudden, Edwin was stunned!

Leaving us behind, he went downstairs quickly.

I wanted to follow him. But Assistant Zoey grabbed me, "Miss Archer, you are now weak and injured. I'll go and check the situation for you. Wait for my update here." Then, he took out a

business card from his pocket and handed it to me, "Your things are in the cabinet of the ward."

After that, he left with Edwin in a hurry.

I looked at the business card which was neat with only two words "Zoey Vernon" written on it.

There were an email box and a phone number below his name.

I walked back to the ward with the business card in my hands, feeling even more chaotic in my heart.

"Is it an accident or a deliberate murder?"

"How could there be such a coincidence?"

"I don't want to kill this child. But what if I indeed get sick and pass the disease to my child?"

"No matter how the society changes, everyone's prejudice against this disease won't change."

"If that's the case, my child surely will be looked down upon by others."

"He/she surely can't be confident for the rest of his/ her life. And he/ she will live in depression all his/her life."

"What should I do..."

After entering the ward, I squatted on the ground, held my head with both hands, and felt quite desperate!

"I indeed can't make a choice!"

"I have lost a child. How can I bear to kill my second child?"

"But what if, what if I was indeed raped and that I'm infected with AIDS?"

Although in my heart, I could basically confirm that someone had made up a scene, making it look like that I had been raped. The purpose of such a move was very obvious, that was, to sow discord between Caroline and me.

And the one behind the sene probably did so because of Patrick.

"No matter what, I don't want to bear one out of ten thousand chance!"

I remembered what Edwin had said. He said that it was okay for me to take the medicine within 72 hours. But the sooner I took the medicine, the greater the possibility of avoiding the infection would be. If I was in a coma for less than 10 hours, then I should still have some time left!

"At this time, if I can find the one behind the scene, I probably can..."

"I can't do it on my own."

"Someone has to help me."

"And someone has to be willing to help me. Moreover, it should be someone that I can believe for the time being."

"After weighing everything, there is only one candidate, Patrick Cowell."

"He is the only one!"

"Although Seth's death might have something to do with him, I can put aside these things for the time being."

"I want to save my child first!"

After making sure of this point, I went to the cabinet to get my cell phone without hesitation.

When I opened the cabinet, I found that my laptop was also lying inside. I was shocked!

Thinking of the things that Caroline had shown to me, I quickly turned on the computer and intended to find the hidden files based on how she had done that day.

However, I didn't find the hidden folder in my computer!

At first, I thought I had made a mistake. After searching on Google for a long time, I finally confirmed that it wasn't me who had made a mistake. Instead, it was that the hidden folder didn't exist on my laptop at all.

"Why is this happening?"

I was even more confused."

The whole thing confused me. I thought about it carefully, only to feel a chill on my back. I was terrified when I thought about it.

Although I didn't know who the one behind the scene was, he/ she made me break up completely with Caroline with a few tricks.

And he/she didn't leave any traces.

"The one behind the scene shouldn't be Patrick, right?"

"It can't be him."

"I think Patrick surely won't be so despicable to such an extent."

I shut down my laptop and called Patrick.

He didn't answer my call at first. About five minutes later, he called me. The first sentence he said on the phone was, "I was in a meeting just now. Seeing that it was your call, I came out."

His tone was a little relaxed, which sounded even a little joyful.

It was as if he didn't know what had happened to me...

I took a deep breath and said to Patrick, "Mr. Cowell, I'll send you my address later. Pls, come to me. I have something to tell you." Thinking that my tone was a little stiff, I took a breath and asked in a soft voice, "Can you?"

"Okay."

Patrick immediately agreed.

He didn't ask anything and agreed.

Hanging up the phone, I used the map software to check my address and found that I was in a place called Safety&Trust Hospital.

I stood at the door and looked downstairs to make sure my ward was on the third floor. Then I glanced at the bed number and sent all the information to him.

The place where I was now was very close to Towering High. I knew that he surely would arrive here soon. Even so, I became nervous instead.

I went into the bathroom, looked at myself into the mirror, and looked at the gauze wrapped around my face...
