Chapter 612
From the looks of things, it’s as though she’s nning to be away for a long time. After searching the
entire house, John then came back out. Taking out his cell phone, he gave Sophia a call.
Turning time back a few hours ago, when Sophia was done packing up early in the morning, she first
went to the hospital. When she was there, she essed her blood test report and showed it to the
doctor. Her expression rigid, the doctor scanned through the report before saying, “You’re pregnant.
However, it’s still early. Are you nning to keep it?”
Sophia nodded. “Yes.”
The doctor looked up and studied her for a moment. “You came alone?”
Sophia grunted in affirmation. “My family is busy, so I came alone.” While she was wearing a mask, she
wasn’t feeling all that well, so she appeared rather pitiful.
Thus, the doctor’s voice became gentle. “If you’re nning to keep the child, you must keep up with the
nutrition requirements in the early stages. You’re too thin. The child absorbs nutrients from the mother
in theter stages, so there’ll be an adverse effect if you’recking certain nutrients.”
Sophia murmured in acknowledgment, “Okay. I got it.”
The doctor then inquired about the date of herst menstruation and gave her an estimated due date.
Then, she told her toe for a B-scan at ater date. She also gave her a lengthy reminder before
saying poignantly that these words should have been meant for her husband. Putting on a cheerful
front, Sophia chortled. Finally, she thanked the doctor and left the hospital. Sure enough, I’m pregnant.
But how could this be? When did it happen? I really have no recollection at all.
From the hospital, Sophia took a taxi to the train station. She’d already booked a ticket to her

hometown, but there was no direct train there, so she needed to change trains. Nheless, she didn’t
mind since she could just rest on the way there. While she was waiting in the lounge, her cell phone
rang. It’s that woman again! She stared at her cell phone for a long time. I just knew that she wouldn’t
have taken my words back then seriously!
A few secondster, she answered the call. The woman on the other end sounded jubnt as she
eximed, “Soph!” Sophia said nothing, so the woman continued, “I miss you. Can we have a video
call? I want to show you your sister as well. You’ll definitely like her.”
ncing at the touristsing and going around her, Sophia lowered her voice as she replied, “But I
don’t want to see you both.” The moment this remark reached the woman, silence abruptly reigned on
the other end. Sophia then demanded that she stop calling and hung up. Pursing her lips, she leaned
back against the chair, her expression vacant.
Having bought a soft sleeper ticket, Sophia climbed into bed when she got on the train after checking
in. She didn’t have any luggage with her since it was too long a journey, nor did her current condition
allow it. There weren’t many people in the soft sleeperpartment, so it was fairly quiet. She groggily
drifted off, only to be roused by a phone call from John. She dopily took the call. “John.”
John sighed. “You left too early. Why didn’t you call me over to drive you?”
“It’s fine,” Sophia blurted. “I don’t like having someone ferry me around. I can manage by myself.”
John then asked whether she was taking a flight, upon which sheughed weakly. “No, I’m taking the
train. It’s very safe.” He immediately requested her train information before asking whether she packed
any food and clothes with her in a concerned voice.
Sophia reclined against the headboard, feeling herself gradually falling into a trance. The previous time,
I took a train here alone with my luggage in tow to seek shelter with the Constance Family. My state of
mind back then was rather simr to my current predicament, feeling utterly lost. But I’d never
experienced the disenchantment of married life at that time, so I was still very much fanciful. And back
then, I was looking forward to meeting him.
John continued bbering on the other end. Only when the conductor came to check her ticket did
Sophia hang up the call.
