Kent pretended like he didn’t hear anything. He put some food in her mouth forcedly, making a command. “Eat now! You should think of your baby!”
Baby…
She touched her belly. The baby inside her flat belly was like magic, which helped her cheer up a little bit.
Kent continued, “I worked so hard to save your baby. Don’t waste my effort.”
Elena had to admit that he was right; he saved her baby. Though she lost her appetite now, she had to eat something for her baby.
“Hey, listen. No matter what I do, it’s for your good. I never meant to hurt you.” said Kent seriously.
In fact, he could just let Emma kill her, and deal with Emma after that; no one would know he was the man behind! But he didn’t kill her at last.
Elena ate all the food. Before Kent cleaned up the table, Elena quickly ran to the restroom and started to vomit. She threw up all she had just eaten.
Kent was scared, “Are you okay? I am calling the doctor!”
“I am fine…” She waved her hands but the next minute she threw up again.
This was Kent's first time taking care of a pregnant woman. He thought she might eat something that made her ill. So he called the doctor no matter if she wanted it or not.
After washing her face, she walked out with a pale look. A familiar man was waiting for her. He smiled at her, “May I help?”
Elena was shocked to see him. But then she quickly composed herself.
Kent looked at them in confusion. “She just vomited. Check it out.”
“Would you mind leaving while we are checking? You know, I need to ask some private questions about pregnancy.”
Elena nodded to show her agreement. Kent felt a bit strange for her changeable attitude. Elena tried to explain, “Are you interested in women’s stuff?”
“No, I am not. Alright. Then I’ll wait for you downstairs. Call me if you need anything.”
“Alright.”
Kent looked at them in disbelief and closed the door. The doctor crept up to the door and pressed his ear up against it, listening intently. After making sure that Kent had left, he took a deep breath of relief.
Elena said in a low voice with puzzlement, “Jeff! Why are you here?!”
“Hush!” Jeff gave the phone to her, “Zach put a bug here. Knowing that Kent was calling a doctor, I took the chance and came here. The doctor he called was stopped on his way."
This was Elena’s first time to access a contactable device these days. She was so excited that she nearly cried. She looked at Jeff, “Can I… talk to Logan?”
Jeff nodded, “Of course. You can call him in the restroom. I will watch Kent for you.”
Elena’s fingers were shivering because of excitement. She couldn’t wait to call Logan.
She was overeager to hear Logan’s voice…
