The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 598

Last night, I had been so shell-shocked by the realization that a new life was growing inside me.

I had spent the entire night agonizing over whether or not to keep the baby.

Eventually, I had passed out from sheer exhaustion, entirely overlooking one massively crucial detail.

Ferris was the one who had brought me that medical report.

The night Leon and Caspian accompanied me for my check-up, we had run into Ferris taking Zoey for her own exams right outside the Orthopedics clinic.

Zoey had also been getting a full-body physical that day.

I had left immediately after my tests were done, and the next morning, Ferris personally brought the results to me.

Did he read the report before he handed it over? Did he see that specific number?

Did he already know I was pregnant?

Last night, when I tried to take his glass to finish his drink, he had grabbed my wrist and specifically said, "You can't drink!"

Was he stopping me because of my bad stomach, or because he knew I was carrying a child?

A suffocating wave of panic crashed over me. I stood frozen in place, my mind spiraling into absolute chaos.

It wasn't until Amber nudged me that I snapped out of it. "Selena, what's wrong? Are you feeling sick?"

"N-no, I'm fine." I blinked, suddenly realizing I had crumpled the patient files in my hand.

Amber breathed a sigh of relief. "You scared me. You went totally pale. I thought you were about to pass out."
