Looking at Meredith who was lying lifelessly on the hospital bed, Finn uttered carefully, “Josiah, she’s willing to risk her own life to save Yena’s, are you really sure that…there isn’t some kind of misunderstanding?”
“I’ve seen the video. There’s no mistake.” Looking irritated, Josiah frowned and added, “Doctor Finn, cut the nonsense and just tell me if she’s going to die.”
Giving up on trying to persuade Josiah, Finn simply shrugged and answered, “The test results are not back yet.”
As soon as he finished his sentence, a nurse entered the patient ward with the test results. With a serious tone, she said, “Mister Josiah, Doctor Finn, the test results show that Miss Meredith is pregnant.”
Josiah’s eyes lit up briefly upon hearing the nurse’s remarks.
However, the light in his eyes dimmed immediately and in an aloof manner, he asked, “What did you say?”
Finn took the test report from the nurse and scanned through the report quickly before concluding, “Congratulations, Josiah! Miss Meredith is two months into her pregnancy.”
Josiah turned to look at Meredith who was on the bed.
She looked extremely pale and frail due to the injury on her head.
She was wounded from her head, arms, body, to even her fingers.
Josiah was surprised that Meredith managed to hang on after suffering all those injuries…not only that, she was even pregnant.
“But there are some early signs of a possible miscarriage, hence we need to transfer Miss Meredith to the obstetrics and gynecology department to further keep an eye on her,” Finn looked at Josiah with mixed feelings and asked, “So, should we transfer her?”
Josiah said nothing while he continued staring at Meredith.
Getting anxious, Finn added, “Josiah, have you forgotten that your grandpa desperately wanted a grandchild? In any case, we ought to keep the baby first.”
“She is unworthy of giving birth to a child of the Shelby family,” Josiah finally replied indifferently.
