Her reasons successfully quelled the receptionist's suspicion. She replied politely with a smile, "Oh, President Reed is pregnant. She's getting treatment in the hospital for the time being."
"Pregnant?" Rina questioned sharply.
The receptionist frowned. "Miss, what's wrong? From your tone, you don't sound happy about President Reed's pregnancy."
Their president was pregnant, and not one person in the company was unhappy about the news. Plus, since she was pregnant, Toby gave them a lot of benefits. Even the netizens received some, so who would not give them their blessings? Instead, Rina was the only person that sounded unpleasant about the news, dissatisfied even.
Rina's fists clenched tightly behind the counter. Happy? How can I be happy? Now that she's pregnant, how is she gonna donate her kidney?!
As a result, she walked out of Paradigm Co. in a daze, looking up at the sky. It was cloudy and gray, just like how she felt at the moment. Pregnant. How can she be pregnant at a time like this?! What a b*tch!
She soon filled herself with determination again. No matter what, even if Sonia was pregnant, she would not give up. She would make Sonia donate a kidney to her father, even if it was by force. After all, Sonia was her father's biological daughter. One way or another, she should feel obliged to save her father! Even if she was pregnant, she should get rid of her child to save him! That was what Rina believed.
Dad is dying, and Sonia is still young. She can still have another baby if she aborts this one. How can an unborn baby be more important than Dad?! That's right. I'm gonna find her now!
Rina gritted her teeth and hailed another cab. "First World Hospital."
She was confident that Sonia would be there. After all, she knew there was a genius doctor named Dr. Lancaster at First World Hospital. That doctor has always been kind to her, so I'm sure she chose there for treatment.
Soon, she arrived at the First World Hospital.
When she got out of the cab, she fished out a mirror from her back and looked carefully to make sure her makeup, hair, and clothes still looked believable so that she would not get recognized easily. She put away her mirror and walked into the hospital with confidence.
With Sonia and Toby's reputations, they could not be in normal wards. So, without any hesitation, Rina walked straight to the special wards building.
She entered the building with no trouble, and the security guard did not even spare her a second glance. He even thought she was a wealthy patient's family member, so he asked her to register and allowed her in.
Following that, she arrived at the front desk and asked for the floor and number of Sonia's ward. Immediately, she took an elevator up.
The moment she stepped out of it, her heart was beating like a drum. She was nervous and did not know if Toby was present or not.
Since he loved Sonia so much, that man was more than likely to stay at the hospital with her the whole time since she was pregnant and hospitalized.
Now, Rina was terrified to bump into Toby. What should I do? Do I still go in?
While she was freaking out, a nearby security guard walked by. When he saw her, he was immediately suspicious. He walked over quickly and asked coldly, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Rina was so scared that she began to tremble. Fortunately, she reacted in time and forcibly calmed herself down. She immediately acted like her unreasonable, arrogant mother to avoid the security guard's suspicion.
"Why do you care so much?" She put her hands on her hip and acted flawlessly like her cocky mother. "This is a hospital. What do you think I'm here for? Of course, I'm here to visit my family. You sound like you're interrogating a prisoner. Are you saying I shouldn't visit my family? Do you own the hospital?"
The security guard's mouth twitched with annoyance, for he was scolded for no reason!
