Tears appeared at the corners of Sonia's reddened eyes, which went to show that the incident earlier
had caused some degree of discomfort for her.
A worried Toby asked, "What's wrong? Why are you retching all of a sudden?"
Sonia lay back down on the bed and shook her head. "I have no idea. I just felt a sense of discomfort in
my stomach all of a sudden. I wanted to vomit but nothing came out. Anyway, I feel much better now. I
suppose there must've been something wrong with what I had earlier."
"In that case, we should get a doctor to check on you." As Toby spoke, he extended his hand and
pressed the button beside his bed.
Sonia wanted to stop him, but it was too late. She could only watch as he pressed the button.
Forget it. I'll let a doctor examine me, then. If I refuse, this man will never set his mind at ease.
Regardless, both of us will be assured after an examination. If I've been infected with a communicable
disease, I can undergo treatment at once and make sure he won't be infected.
"Here's some water for you." Toby picked up a glass of water from the bedside table and passed it to
her.
Sonia sat up. "Thanks." At that moment, she found it funny. She was supposed to be taking care of
him, but it was the other way now. After chugging down the water, she let out a long breath. The man took the glass and put it back down on the table, but he still asked worriedly, "How do you feel
now?"
Sonia flashed a smile at him. "I'm fine. I don't feel any discomfort in my stomach anymore, nor do I feel
like retching again."
Hearing that, Toby became slightly at ease. However, he was still worried. Before the doctor examined
her and gave them a detailed explanation, he wouldn't feel relieved.
"I'll get out of bed first. It'll be inappropriate if the doctor comes over and sees me lying in the same bed
with you," Sonia said, then lifted the quilt and got to her feet.
Toby wanted to tell her it was fine, but he knew that she was always concerned about what others
thought of her. As such, he remained silent.
Following that, Sonia put on her coat and sat down on a chair, awaiting the doctor's arrival. After
waiting for several minutes, she saw a doctor rushing into the ward. She was surprised, for she was
familiar with this doctor—he was Tim. "Haven't you gotten off work?"
"I'm responsible for the night shift today. I'll get a day off tomorrow," Tim replied as he adjusted his
glasses. Then, he shifted his attention to Toby with a hint of displeasure. "What's wrong with you
again?" He spoke in a way as though Toby was always causing trouble.
Toby's face fell in an instant. If not for the fact that he had to let Tim check on Sonia, he would've taught
him a lesson. How dare he speak so rudely to me?! "It's not me. It's Little Leaf," he said solemnly as he
lifted his chin in Sonia's direction. When Tim realized that it was Sonia who needed help, his attitude changed. Without hesitation, he
shuffled toward her and spoke in a milder voice. "What happened?"
Seeing that, Toby gritted his teeth. If not for the fact that he knew Tim wouldn't fall in love with Sonia, he
wouldn't allow this guy's presence in the hospital.
Sonia shook her head. "I'm fine. Don't get anxious because of what Toby said." With an amused look,
she glanced at Toby. Then, she continued, "I just felt a sense of discomfort in my stomach all of a
sudden and started retching, so he called for a doctor. I'm fine now."
"You retched?" Tim arched his brow. "What did you eat in the afternoon?"
After giving it some thought, Sonia listed down the food she'd eaten in the afternoon.
"There's nothing wrong with what you've eaten, so it's likely that there's a problem with your digestive
system. Let's get a check done on you." Tim gazed at her.
Sonia blinked. "Is it even necessary?"
"Since there's nothing wrong with what you've eaten, I can't infer what caused your discomfort. Hence,
we have to do a thorough examination of your digestive system." Tim tucked his hands into his
pockets.
"Let's get it done. Otherwise, I can't rest assured," Toby said. Since he had said so, Sonia couldn't possibly turn him down. As such, she could only nod in
agreement. "Alright."
"Let's go." Tim directly walked out of the ward without sparing Toby a glance.
Toby ignored the man and didn't look at him either. He stared fixedly at Sonia, who was walking up to
him.
"I'll get going now. Get some sleep and don't wait for me. I'll be back soon," Sonia said to the man while
standing beside the bed.
The man dipped his head. "Alright."
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebook"See you later." Sonia waved her hand and left with Tim, who brought her to the endoscopy unit.
Another doctor would conduct a gastroscopy on her to find out if there was anything wrong with her
digestive system.
Honestly, Sonia didn't want to go through a gastroscopy as she was certain that it would be an
uncomfortable experience. However, to make sure the man would stop feeling anxious, she could only
bite the bullet and get it done.
Before the doctor could arrange an examination for her, the nurse, who had checked Sonia's blood
pressure, walked up to the doctor and whispered to him.
A hint of surprise flashed across the doctor's eyes. He quickly put down the tools in his hands and left
with the nurse. While lying on the examination table, Sonia watched the doctor and nurse leave with a sense of
unease. What's going on? Do I have cancer or something? Wait a minute, the examination hasn't even
started yet. The nurse only checked my blood pressure. Can they find out if a patient has cancer
through a blood pressure test these days? Certainly, she didn't think that was true, but she still couldn't
help feeling apprehensive.
Soon, the doctor and nurse returned to the ward with Tim following closely behind them. He took a look
at the blood pressure results and glanced at Sonia before asking the nurse to help her get down from
the examination table.
"What's wrong with me?" Sonia asked the instant she got to her feet.
Tim sighed. "Let's go. You're not supposed to be here. I'll bring you to the department where you'll get a
proper check."
"Huh?" Sonia was stunned. Before she could say more, Tim had stepped out of the ward. Left with no
choice, she could only follow him.
Soon, Tim brought her to where she was supposed to be, which was the obstetrics and gynecology
department.
Sonia widened her eyes in disbelief. "What's going on? Why have you brought me here?"
"You're probably pregnant, so we have to do a test on you to find out." Tim turned around and glanced
at her.
Sonia's jaw dropped as her mind turned blank in an instant. Soon, she came to her senses and gulped.Still reeling from the shock, she stammered, "Y-You mean I'm pregnant?"
Tim didn't give her a definitive reply. "It's just a possibility, but it's very likely the case. Let's go in. We'll
find out after examining you." He then stepped into the room first.
Sonia was rooted to the spot as she touched her belly, her heart pounding into a gallop. Am I likely
pregnant? She parted her lips in an attempt to say something, but she couldn't utter a word in the end.
At this moment, she was unable to describe her feelings with words.
All the same, she wasn't against the notion of being pregnant as she had fully accepted the child's
father. As such, she was at ease with being pregnant. Therefore, she supposed she was happy with
the news.
Having said that, she couldn't celebrate it just yet, for it was still uncertain. If it turned out that she
wasn't pregnant, her elation would be for nothing.
She took a look at the signboard and breathed deeply. Then, she clenched her fists and stepped into
the room. At any rate, I'll get an examination done to find out if I'm pregnant. I'll have to get the results
before I can think about anything else.
After the examination, she waited in the lounge for an hour. During this period, she was so anxious that
her limbs trembled slightly. It couldn't be helped, for she was eager to know the results. She was
unable to calm down at all.
Just then, the door of the lounge was pushed open.
