After All the Hurt, She Chose Herself novel Chapter 107

Hearing Charles say this, Flora felt a pang of guilt.

"Can we really do that...?"

The lawyer thought for a moment, then shook his head regretfully. "I'm afraid Ms. Keene's condition doesn't fall into that category. However, you can give me her medical records, and I'll try to submit an application."

Medical records...

Charles was about to nod when he suddenly remembered that when he and Flora were abroad, she had always kept her medical records herself.

She claimed she didn't want him to see the diagnoses and get upset, so he couldn't produce them on the spot.

"Flora, send me your account information. I'll print out the medical records for the lawyer."

Flora's expression shifted slightly but quickly returned to normal.

"Charles, my head is a mess right now. I can't seem to remember the password..."

"But I'm good friends with Lilith. She probably remembers my password. Charles, could you ask Lilith?"

It wasn't a difficult request, so Charles agreed.

"I'm just not sure how Lilith is doing right now. If she's not well, maybe we should wait a bit before bringing up my situation. I'm worried the stress will be too much for her..."

Even in a situation like this, Flora was still worried about Lilith.

Charles's heart melted, his expression softening with emotion. "Flora, I believe you. How could a kind girl like you ever bully someone else?"

The lawyer scoffed internally.

The evidence was damning, yet she still refused to admit it.

Bullies were always the best actors.

But this was his job. No matter how much he despised people like her, he had to complete the work his boss assigned him.

***

Aria worked for a long time at the research institute and finally managed to make some headway.

Her mood improved slightly.

However, due to her physical condition, Aria didn't drive. Noticing her pale face, Mira offered to give her a ride home.

As Aria was thinking, the car stopped in front of the Evernight estate.

She snapped back to reality, paid the driver, and got out.

"Oh, Madam is back!"

A maid saw Aria enter and hurried to greet her, taking Aria's coat to hang it up.

"Madam, would you like something to drink? It's so cold outside. Would you like a bath first? Or would you prefer to eat?"

The maid's complete change in attitude wasn't lost on Aria. She knew exactly what was going on.

They knew she was pregnant.

Aria lowered her eyes. "No, thank you."

The maid knew her change in demeanor was too abrupt, but she couldn't help it. Although the Evernight family was large, heirs were few and far between. Now that Aria was pregnant, the family was bound to place great importance on her.

"Madam, I was ignorant and disrespectful to you before. I hope you can be the bigger person and forgive..."
