Chapter 899


    “Don’t take gastric medicine!” Rosalie said hurriedly.


    Lillian looked at her best friend with a puzzled look on her face. “I can’t take gastric medicine? Then


    what do I take?”


    Rosalie pursed her lips and looked at her friend with a slightly hesitant gaze. “Have you been, uh…


    intimate with anyone recently?”


    Lillian was stunned. After about ten seconds, she finally realized what her friend had just said. Her


    pale face turned red all of a sudden…


    Rosalie quickly said, “I… I didn’t mean anything else by that. I was just worried that if… If you’re


    truly pregnant, then it’s probably not a good idea to take medicine recklessly.”


    Lillian looked at Rosalic, then at her t belly. She wondered if she was truly pregnant.


    If she was pregnant, then the baby could only be Callum’s!


    But if she truly was pregnant, then it had to be some sort of joke.


    In the past, she used to hope that she could get pregnant with Callum’s child. After all, she wanted


    to spend the rest of her life with him back then. But now, if she was truly pregnant with Callum’s


    child, it would onlyplicate things between them!


    She finally set clear boundaries between Callum and herself. “But now… What’s the meaning of


    this?” she thought.


    Looking at her friend’s behavior, Rosalie didn’t need anyone to tell her that Lillian might indeed be


    pregnant.


    “Is the baby Callum’s?” she asked.


    Lillian smiled bitterly and looked up at Rosalie. “It’s funny, isn’t it? When you sincerely want


    something, you don’t get it. But when you don’t want it anymore, it falls right onto yourp.”


    “Let’s go get a checkup. It may not be the case,” Rosalie said.


    “I know.” Lillian said, “But… If I truly am pregnant, then… What should I do?”


    “Is it truly impossible for you to be with Callum anymore?” Rosalie asked.


    Lillian sighed. “If I wanted to be with him, I wouldn’t have rejected him in the past.”


    Of course, Rosalie knew what Lillian was concerned about. It had always been difficult for outsiders


    to intervene in rtionships.


    “Lillian, no matter what decision you make, I will be on your side,” Rosalie said. “If you want to give


    birth to the baby, then I will be the baby’s godmother. I’ll help you raise the baby. If you… don’t want


    this baby, then I will apany you to your operation!”


    As a mother of three children, Rosalie understood what it felt like to be a mother. There was a


    strong bond between her and the child in her belly.


    Moreover, Callum was the man Lilliani once loved.


    But… If Lillian was seriously going to abort the baby, Rosalie would still stay with her. As long as


    Lillian had made the decision after careful consideration, instead of on impulse, Rosalie would


    always face it with Lillian, no matter the situation.


    Lillian looked at her friend in front of her. She felt moisture in her eyes. “Thank you, Rosalie!”


    Aftering out of Rosalie’s ward, Lillian went to the gynecology department and had her blood


    drawn.


    The blood test report would be released in an hour. But in that hour, Lillian felt as if she had just


    gone through a lifetime.


    She was nervous, uneasy, and confused. She didn’t even know what kind of decision she should


    make once the least favorable situation became true.


    She had always been a decisive person, but now, she was hesitating.


    An hourter, when Lillian saw the data on the blood test report, her heart sank. She had


    researched about it, so she knew that the numbers of the data at that moment meant that she


    was… pregnant!


    08:58 D

    She couldn’t believe that she was seriously pregnant, and the baby was Callum’s too!


    Lillian went to the outpatient clinic in a daze, handing the report to the doctor. After answering a few


    questions, Lillian learned that she was around four weeks pregnant by then.


    “You’re in the first trimester of your pregnancy, so you have toe here every other day for blood


    tests. If the data gets better, there won’t be any problems,” the doctor said.


    Lillian was stunned. “Then what if it gets worse?”


    “If it gets worse, you may need to get an injection or take some medicine if you want to keep the


    baby,”


    the doctor said.


    For a moment, Lillian didn’t know whether she should hope for the data to get better or worse.


    Two dayster, when Lillian got the blood test report again, she simply watched as the doctor said


    to her with a smile, “The data looks good. The baby seems to be doing quite well at this point…”


    Hearing the doctor’s words, Lillian suddenly felt relieved.


    It was not until then that she realized that in her subconscious mind, she hoped the child would be


    fine. After leaving the hospital, Lillian drove to the White Maple Group’s office building in Strico


    without realizing it.


    When she came back to her senses, she realized that there was another car in front of her. The


    other car was trying to get out, but because her car had stopped right at the exit of the underground


    garage, the other car was stuck there.


    Lillian hurriedly tried to back the car up, but when she inadvertently caught a glimpse of the figure


    sitting in the rear seat of the other car, her hand trembled. Instead of reversing, her car had


    scratched the other


    car.


    Fortunately, she had hurriedly stepped on the brakes. If not, she might have rammed right into the


    other


    car.


    Lillian felt her body breaking out in a cold sweat. Her hand almost subconsciously touched her


    abdomen, as if to protect the baby in her stomach.


    She looked at her hand in a daze. She thought, “Am I… hoping that nothing bad happens to the


    baby? Could it be that I want this baby to live?”


    Just then, the driver of the other car had already gotten out of the car. He walked up to Lillian’s car


    and knocked on the door.


    Lillian hurriedly opened the door and realized that she recognized the driver as well. Back when she


    was surrounded by reporters, Callum had pulled her into his car. The driver back then seemed to be


    the same one standing in front of her right now.


    “Ms. Quinn, your car scratched Mr. White’s car,” the driver said respectfully to Lillian.


    “Oh, yes… I think it did. Um… Do we call the traffic police? I’ll take full responsibility for the


    ident,” Lillian hurriedly said.


    “If you want to take full responsibility, Ms. Quinn, then you’ll have topensate for the car


    damage. I wonder if your insurance will be enough to cover that,” the driver said.


    “What? Is thepensation… very high?” Lillian asked. Although Callum’s cars were all very


    expensive luxury cars, her car insurance covered up to 100 thousand dors. That should be


    enough topensate for a scratch.


    However, the driver’s next words almost caused Lillian to faint.


    The driver said, “Ms. Quinn, although the car damage has not been specifically assessed yet, I think


    it will exceed 200 thousand dors. Is your insurance im enough to cover that, Ms. Quinn?”


    “200 thousand dors?” Lillian felt like she was about to faint. “Is Callum’s car made of diamonds or


    something? It’s just a scratch, but I have to pay 200 thousand dors for that?” It was a very light


    scratch,
