The Apple of My Eye novel Chapter 1764

"That's enough! I don't need you to tell me anything. I'm capable of that on my own!"

Rex couldn't think clearly because of Holley's nonstop chatter. He was confused. He didn't know if he could trust her. He wanted to, but there was something inside him telling him not to.

Holley could tell that her plan was working, based on the look on Rex's face alone, but she didn't want to assume anything yet. Making Rex believe her story was just the first part of her plan. The second part of her plan was the most important, as well as the hardest. She thought hard about her next move, as Rex contemplated.

"Take her to the hospital! I need to know if she's telling the truth," Rex ordered his staff.

"Yes, Boss!"

Holley had anticipated this. As Rex spoke, he cast a glance at Holley. She remained calm upon noticing this. She knew that was the only way to make him believe she was telling the truth.

Rex didn't follow them. He watched them, as they entered the car and drove away to the hospital.

The driver was cautious as he had been informed that Holley was pregnant. The car was driving along rather slowly, which gave Holley enough time to think of her next move.

At the hospital

The two men walked behind Holley as she headed into the office of the Obstetrics Department.

The doctor was startled when she saw the two men trying to enter her office. With a scowl, she said, "What are you two men doing here? Men aren't allowed in here. Get out! Only the lady can come in!"

The two men hesitantly exchanged glances. Holley piped in, "You'll have no use here. If you want to see the results, you're going to have to wait until I get the check-up."

The two men nodded to each other after exchanging another look. What Holley had said made sense to them. They also knew that men really weren't allowed in there, so they retreated and took a seat in the hallway.

Holley locked the door after closing it. Then she knelt down as soon as she turned to face the doctor.

The doctor was shocked. Her first instinct was to get Holley off her knees before she could say anything.

Holley ignored the look on her face as she refused to stand up. She just kept frantically shaking her head, struggling to get the doctor's hands away from her.

Helpless, the doctor said, "What are you doing? I'm so confused. Please, get up first, so we can talk!"

"Doctor, help me! You have to help me. Or else I'm going to die!" Holley implored. Tears were streaming down her face.

She was insisting on not getting up. Holley looked desperate and determined as if she wouldn't take no for an answer.

The doctor tried her best to read the situation, but she couldn't understand why Holley would act this way. Frowning, she said helplessly, "Get up first. Then we can talk. If there is anything I can help you with, I'd be glad to do it."

"Really? I appreciate that. You're so kind. I need you to forge a medical certificate that says I'm pregnant," Holley said calmly, taking a deep breath. She looked at the doctor, waiting for what she was going to say.

"No, I can't do that! That's against the oath I took as a doctor. I wouldn't have said I'd help you if it meant I was going to have to lie about it!" the doctor said without hesitation. She suddenly looked stern.

As a doctor, saving people's lives was part of the job, but she couldn't lie. That was against her oath, and she wouldn't do anything unethical.

Holley raised her head and looked into the doctor's eyes as she spoke, "Doctor, please. I really need this. Can you just make this one exception? I have no choice but to do this."
