Drenched in Love novel Chapter 23

Seeing his lip was about to touch her, Sophia sobered up and turned her head.

Because of her action, Stephen was instantly awake. Realizing what he was to do, Stephen was startled and took two steps back to keep a distance away from Sophia.

Sophia took advantage of this and ran back to her office.

Looking at her panic look, Hazel could not help but whisper, “Sophia, what's wrong with you?”

Sophia tried to control her trembling fingers and shook her head. “Nothing.”

Seeing she did not want to say, Hazel did not ask again. After a moment, the pain in the lower abdomen made Sophia think of something, she quietly asked Hazel, “Hazel, I have no money with you. Can you lend me one hundred? I'll pay you back when I get paid.”

She was on her period and had no money to buy tampons.

Hazel immediately took out the money from the wallet to Sophia.

Sophia reached out her hand to take it, but before that, she felt the temperature around was much lower.

Stephen angrily walked in from the outside, grabbed Sophia's wrist to drag her out.

“What are you doing?”

Sophia was dragged by Stephen, stumbling out.

Seeing Sophia was treated like this, Hazel wanted to help Sophia, but she shut up when she saw it was Stephen.

Stephen dragged Sophia into the elevator and walked to the negative layer of the underground parking lot, put her into the car before he drove.

Sophia asked with a frown, “What exactly do you want, Stephen?”

Stephen said nothing and drove her to the hospital.

It was still the dean and the director of obstetrics and gynecology did the examination in person.

The director of obstetrics and gynecology put the coupling agent on Sophia's lower abdomen, put the probe on it, and the image inside the abdominal cavity immediately appeared on the screen.

Stephen stood in front of the screen. He could not understand the image on it. The dean gave the director of obstetrics and gynecology a look, and the director of obstetrics and gynecology immediately explained, “Mr. Berry, Miss Carter's endometrium is thick, and it happens to be during her period. Miss Carter is not pregnant.”

Stephen's eyes darkened

The director of obstetrics and gynecology hurriedly explained, “HCG concentration is a standard to check whether she is pregnant, but in addition to pregnancy, cross infection, interference in the blood, nonspecific licking antibodies, the false positives of methodology, pituitary sources, tumor can lead to the rise of HCG, and even some expired food may also lead to an elevated HCG.”

Hearing a series of nouns, Stephen got a sullen face and did not speak.

Sophia sat up, took the tissue to erase the coupling agent on the lower abdomen, put on clothes, “Mr. Berry, you don’t need to worry now. I did not lie to you. I'm not pregnant.”

Stephen suddenly looked up at Sophia with sharp eyes. Sophia bit her lip, showing no sign of giving in.
