His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 1288

'I deserve this…I tried to set up others but I ended up getting myself into trouble. Now, I can't ever be a mother. I can't have children in this lifetime…'

At this thought, Leila felt her heart grow heavier. As she recovered from her grief, she intended to whip harsh remarks at the guy on the phone only to find that he had already escaped the situation and ended the call.

Even when she called the number back, nobody answered the phone.

Suddenly, her pale face was overcome with anger. Her phone made a loud bang when she threw it against the wall. It broke into cracks and crashed onto the ground.

Despite that, she was still too upset. Glancing around the room, she ended up just grabbing a pillow and throwing it at the door.

Suddenly, she heard a knock from the other side.

"Come in!"

Leila shouted testily.

It was Cassie. When she heard some shouting coming from the room, her hand which was on the doorknob shook slightly.

Pushing open the door, she stepped inside and subtly surveyed the room. Politely, she said, "Miss Zhang, it's time for your regular check-up."

Still engulfed by anger, she turned around and yelled at the nurse, "What's wrong with you? Don't you have anything else to do? Clearly, I'm not sick. I don't need a stupid check-up."

Having heard Leila's conversation over the phone, Cassie wasn't freaked out by the former's fiercely rude response. Otherwise, she would probably be shocked and irritated.

While Leila was on the phone, Cassie had been standing just outside the door. Even though she grasped snippets of Leila's conversation, she had figured out why the patient had gotten ill.

'It turns out this was all Leila's doing. She poisoned herself and framed Sheryl. Now, she's infertile because of the poison. Even if she deeply regrets it, she can't do anything to change the fact, ' Cassie brooded.

Clearly, Cassie wasn't fond of Leila. If Nick hadn't asked her to do him the favor, she wouldn't have even set foot in the ward.

"Miss Zhang, please cool down. You should take care of your health for our own sake. Nothing should be more precious to us than having good health. What do you say?" Cassie said with a slight smile.

Her words drew the patient's attention. Suddenly, Leila raised her head and stared at Cassie, standing there, clad in her nurse uniform.

'I feel like someone has said those words to me before.

You should take care of your health just for your own sake. Nothing is more precious to us than having good health.

Oh, I remember now. It was the guy I called. He only said that the infertility was a possible side-effect. There is still a chance for me. I need to keep taking good care of my body to get better. I can't give up, even if the chances are slim.

Besides, there are so many fertility hospitals and specialists out there. I believe I'll be fine, ' she told herself.

Much relieved, Leila tried to regain her composure until a calm look took over her expression.

"What's your name?" she asked abruptly, looking up at Cassie. As Cassie replied, she made sure to put on a courteous smile.

"Miss Zhang, please call me Cassie. Can we start now?"
