The alarm rang.
Ever since she got pregnant, she had religiously taken two calcium pills a day. Afraid she'd forget, she had set a daily alarm.
Seeing Winona take the pills, Karina asked with interest, "Winona, what are you taking?"
She picked up the bottle, examined it, and realized they were calcium supplements. She smiled. "I need more calcium too. Is this a good brand? I want to buy a bottle."
The brand Winona was taking was bought by Stefan, and it was perfectly fine for non-pregnant people to take as well.
If Karina wanted to take them, Winona saw no reason to stop her.
Over the weekend, Karina returned to the capital and had dinner with Margaret. Ophelia was also there.
Seeing Karina pull out a bottle of calcium pills right after eating, Margaret asked curiously, "What are those?"
"I saw Winona taking these, so I decided to take them too. Extra calcium is good for you," Karina replied.
Margaret scoffed coldly. "You've been getting awfully close to her lately. I still have no idea what you and Stefan see in her."
Karina tried to say a few nice things in Winona's defense, but the more Margaret listened, the colder her expression became.
Ophelia lingered her gaze on the pill bottle. Once she got home, she pulled out her phone to look up the brand.
When she saw countless reviews highly recommending it specifically for pregnant women, her heart skipped a beat.
Could Winona be pregnant?
A venomous mix of resentment and jealousy flared in her eyes.

At ten o'clock that night, Winona received a text from Stefan: "My mom was hospitalized tonight. I'm going to see her, so I won't be back until tomorrow evening."
Winona replied: "Okay, make sure you get some rest."
After washing up, she reviewed some work files and got ready for bed.
Right then, her phone buzzed. Ophelia had sent her a photo.
In the picture, Stefan was sitting on a sofa with his eyes closed, and a woman's hand was resting gently on his arm.
