The Heartbreak Prescription novel Chapter 405

The phone rang once, the inelodic tone echoing through the quiet room before being answered. Wendy’s clear, soft voice came through the line. “Hello?”

Jessica couldn’t help but smile. Wendy still had no idea about the siluation–just thinking about her fate made Jessica feel a surge of triumph.

“Wendy, it’s me. I just wanted to thank you for helping its catch the fake Dr. Ceylan. We’re working hard to recover the money we invested. Although we won’t be able to get it all back, I still want to thank you for your help.” Wendy was currently at Royale Residences, staying in after few days of not really going anywhere. She had been unusually sleepy lately, feeling constantly tired for no apparent reason.

As Jessica thanked her, Wendy raised an eyebrow, a hint of disbelief in her voice. “Stop beating around the bush. Just tell me what you want.”

Jessica thanking her? Wendy didn’t believe it for a second.

Jessica laughed softly. “I had a sudden pain in my chest and fainted earlier today. I was rushed to the hospital. Since we’ve been through so much together, can you come by and visit me?”

Wendy scoffed. “Why? Would seeing me cure you? What do we need doctors for, then?” Jessica bit back her frustration. Being sharp–tongued was always a trademark of Wendy’s. She fought the urge to snap back. She reminded herself to be patient, as there was time. The game had only just begun.

“Actually, Stanley has been searching for a suitable heart for me. He found one, and it belongs to someone you know. If you come over, I’ll tell you all about it.”

Wendy paused, unsure of Jessica’s intentions. She would find out once she got there, anyway. After learning the truth about Jerry’s death at their hands, she had been waiting for the Crone family to come to her doorstep. Wendy smirked. “Alright. I’ll be there soon.”

After hanging up, Wendy took a sip of warm water.

Suddenly, a sour taste rose in her throat. She bent over and gagged, even though she hadn’t eaten anything. The dry heaving left her feeling nauseous, and she couldn’t stop until bile came up.

What was happening to her?

She quickly went to the bathroom to brush her teeth, trying to shake off the discomfort.

Then, something occurred to her–something important. Her period, which was always on time, had not come yet..

She checked the date. Her period was already ten days late.

Since returning from Feirwale, she had been so busy that she hadn’t even thought about it.

But now it hit her: She hadn’t gotten her period.

What was going on?

Wendy’s mind raced with a sudden possibility. She quickly checked her pulse.

Her face went pale as she realized what had happened. The pulse indicated she was pregnant.

She was pregnant!

Her mind flashed back to the night she and Stanley had divorced. He hadn’t used protection, and though she had planned to take the morning after pill the next day, Stanley had divorced her instead. After that, she had come home from the clerk’s office and fallen ill, bedridden for a week with a fever.

She had completely forgotten about the pill.
