Fall in Love After the Flash Marriage novel Chapter 123

Xicheng Maternity Hospital, specialist department.

Jessica takes off her burdensome black sunglasses, scarf and mask and then hands the laboratory test results to the doctor.

The doctor who has been treating her is quite old and has a lot of white hair on his sideburns. He is wearing a pair of delicate and exquisite glasses and stares at the test sheet for a while, then shakes his head and sighs.

Upon seeing this, Jessica begins to worry and asks, “Doctor, these last two days I have paid lots of attention in ensuring I take adequate rest, have you pushed back the announcement, or is there still no hope?”

The doctor takes off his glasses and shakes his head,

"I looked at the results of the ultrasound, and I also checked the results of these tests. The results are similar to those of the last test, but even worse. I asked an expert in the hospital for consultation and we both unanimously recommend that we need to induce labour. This baby cannot remain inside of you, if the baby remains inside the womb and becomes a stillbirth, then the harm to your body will be irreversible.”

Jessica’s face turns pale instantly, she then stands up abruptly, and says anxiously,

“Doctor, is there really no other way? This child is very important to me; no matter if I need to take medicine or remain in the hospital; I’m willing to spend any money necessary…”

“This isn’t a question of money… Miss, I advise you to take our recommendation into consideration.”

Jessica’s legs soften, and she slowly slumps down on the chair while supporting herself with the corner of the table, her whole body seems to have been drained of a soul, and she is not able to recover for a long time.

The doctor frowns and says, “You are still young, but I’m afraid there is no hope for your child, so from now on look after yourself well and then it will be possible for you to have another one in the future.”

A long time passes when she looks up at the doctor and says, “Doctor, please do not tell my husband about this, ok?”

The doctor hesitates for a short time, “I feel it is necessary you discuss this matter with him…”

“This is the first child with my husband, I fear he will be unable to bear this, so I think it’s better to wait a bit, I will tell him, so I hope for now you can help me keep it a secret.”

She is not able to let Frankie know about this, ever since the scandal between Jenny and Luke was exposed, she noticed that Frankie had become more and strange and odd, as if he was not able to accept the reality of this fact, it’s been a few times already where she discovered that Frankie was secretly arranging to meet Jenny in private.

She is unable to let the happiness she has acquired be destroyed by this child.

At least not until she has obtained the marriage certificate with him.

A silver bank card is slowly being pushed onto the side of the test sheet. The doctor panics and glances at the door subconsciously, "What are you doing, take it away quickly..."

“This is just me showing you how appreciative I am of you, the whole time I have been pregnant you have been looking after me, I feel very grateful for this, and therefore I wanted to repay you long ago, so please accept this.”

Jessica pushes the card with a polite smile on her face which no one is able to refuse.

The doctor frowns, and says with a sense of righteousness, “Jessica, doctors are all kind-hearted, we treat all patients equally, what you are doing is making me…”

“There is 200,000 on this card and there is no pin…”

Jessica’s words shock the doctor.

“I heard that you recently found a match for your daughter’s heart, and now are preparing for surgery. This is just a small gift, so please do not refuse.”

“You…”

The doctor’s face is tense and stiff, however unable to say anything.

He has practiced medicine for decades and has never accepted a bribe; however the heavens seem to be unwilling to look after an honest and sincere person like himself. His daughter has congenital heart disease and the expensive hospital and medicine fees have broken and left the family poor, it took a long time for a match to be found for her heart, however now the cost of the surgery has put him into a difficult predicament once more.

This 200,000 is enough to save his daughter’s life.
