"Who was it?"
Lyra smiled as she replied, "My classmate from university, but she didn’t recognize me. It’s fine, Julien. Let's go to the psychiatry department."
Julien did not give it much thought and nodded in agreement.
On the other side, after Finn ended his call with Sydney, he called someone from the obstetric and gynecology department. "Remember the woman I told you about the last time? She's already heading to your side. Watch out and don’t get caught."
"I understand, Dr. Finn,” the person on the other side nodded and replied.
Finn nodded and hung up.
The obstetric and gynecology department.
Sydney went to the outpatient department with Luke's company.
"Luke, wait for me outside," Sydney turned around and said to Luke.
"Let me go in with you." Luke was worried.
Sydney shook her head and rejected. "I don't think that's a good idea."
Since she was so stubborn, Luke had no choice. He agreed and said, "Fine, I'll wait for you right here. Call me if anything happens, I'll go in right away."
"Okay." Sydney smiled and went in.
In the consultation room, the doctor put down the phone when Sydney entered. When he saw Sydney, a light flickered across his eyes.
"Ms. Raines, nice to see you again," the doctor smiled and greeted Sydney.
Sydney sat down opposite him. "Do you still remember me?"
"Of course, I saw you the last time you came. My memory is great," the doctor said.
Sydney forced a smile. “I see."
"Ms. Raines, why are you here? Is something wrong?” The doctor took her registration form.
Sydney shook her head. "No. I came for an abortion."
"Abortion?" The doctor was stunned.
Sydney nodded. "That's right."
The doctor's expression was rather complex. "Are you sure about this?"
"Of course," Sydney said firmly.
The doctor initially thought that he had to make up some story about a congenital defect or a maternal issue to advise her for abortion.
He did not expect her to come for this instead. It saved him a great deal of trouble.
"Since Ms.Raines already thinks this through, then when are you planning for the abortion? We can arrange a time for the surgery, which is suitable for you." The doctor looked at her abdomen.
Sydney's hands that were on her abdomen tightened and she did not answer. Instead, she looked down, looking deep in thought.
The doctor was observing her closely. With how she was acting, she might regret her decision at any time.
The doctor narrowed his eyes and said, "Ms. Raines, we don’t advise you to delay this. The more you wait, the more the baby will grow. If we do this later, it isn't good for you. I hope that you can decide on a date as soon as possible."
"Then let's do it as soon as we can," Sydney took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and said with a hoarse voice.
When the doctor asked her when she was planning the abortion, a deep sense of unwillingness arose within her heart. She just could not bring herself to answer the doctor.
However, no matter how unwilling she was, she had to do it.
Sorry.
Sydney apologized to the unborn child in her abdomen and signed the abortion consent form.
When the doctor saw her signature on the form, he felt a great sense of relief and smiled deeper.
"Ms. Raines, I ran a check through our system and found that our operation theaters are fully booked for the next two days. I arranged yours in the afternoon two days later," the doctor took the consent form and said tenderly.
Sydney nodded. "I understand. I'll come back in two days."
"Okay," the doctor smiled as he replied.
Sydney stood up and left the clinic.
