    Chapter 1130


    Just as Amelia was about toe out of the restroom stall, she coincidentally heard the sound of


    footsteps, followed by the conversation between two women.


    “Isn’t the patient who came for the prenatal check-up today the wife of Warren York, chairman of York


    Group?” asked one of the female voices.


    “That’s right. Thatdy’s dressed so modestly. Without prior knowledge, nobody would’ve guessed that


    she’s Mr. Warren York’s wife,”mented another voice.


    The initial voice promptlymented, “However, I can’t help but wonder if their marriage is going


    N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material.


    through a difficult phase. They nevere to the hospital together and always arrive separately.”


    “Well, I don’t think so. If their rtionship were on the rocks, would Warren possibly be at the hospital


    every month for the drawing of his blood? He even requested us to keep it a secret from his wife and


    imed he didn’t want her to be concerned,” remarked the second voice.


    “I heard that he’s drawing blood once a month, and they say it’s meant to continue until his wife’s


    delivery. Wouldn’t there be any risks if this continues?” asked the first woman.


    The second woman began exining, “It seems like he’s signed a waiver with the hospital…”


    At this point, Amelia had trouble paying attention to the rest of the conversation between those two, as


    her mind was preupied… v matter regarding Warren’s blood drawing.


    “Warrenes to the hospital once a month for blood drawing, an doing it until my delivery? Does that


    mean… that he’s drawing his b for me?” she wondered.


    With those thoughts racing through her mind, Amelia forcefully swun open the stall door and urgently


    asked the two nurses, “Where in the hospital is Warren having his blood drawn?”


    When the nurses saw Amélia out, they realized that they had mentioned something they shouldn’t have


    and fell silent.


    After all, Warren had explicitly instructed the hospital not to inform his wife about his blood drawing.


    One of the nurses quickly spoke up. “Uh… Mrs. York, we’re not sure what you’re referring to. We can


    exin ourselves if our previous conversation has caused any misunderstanding…”


    However, before they could finish speaking, Amelia interrupted them and inquired, “Where is he at the


    moment? If you’re not willing to provide me with information, I’ll go to your superiors and request the


    details. But if you do tell me, I assure you I won’t reveal that I obtained this information from you!”


    After they exchanged nces between them, one of the nurses finally disclosed the location of the


    room where Warren was currently having his blood drawn.


    When she heard that, Amelia immediately left the restroom and began walking toward the room.


    As she made her way there, her pace unknowingly hastened as Warren’s visage consumed her


    thoughts.


    When she finally reached room three of the blood-drawing station, Amelia saw the door swinging open


    as Warren emerged from inside.


    They happened to have run into each other.


    Warren was taken aback. His eyes were filled with surprise as he looked at Amelia. “Why are you


    here…”


    “Were you having your blood drawn?” she asked when she noticed the pallor in hisplexion. Amelia


    also saw that one of his sleeves was still rolled up and revealed a bruise on his arm.


    She subconsciously attempted to get a closer look, but he appea detect her intention and swiftly began


    lowering the rolled-up sle


    “Wait!” shouted Amelia as she grabbed his arm to stop him.


    Amid the bruise, she quickly identified a tiny puncture mark, which provided clear evidence that he had


    indeed had blood drawn momen ago.


    She immediately asked again, “So you really were having your blood drawn just now?”


    “I’m just here for a routine health checkup, which involved some blood tests,” he casually replied before


    he retracted his arm from her grasp and lowered his sleeve. “Aren’t you supposed to have your


    prenatal examination today? Why are you here?”


    Amelia, however, continued to fix her gaze on Warren. She noticed that hisplexion was far from


    good, as he looked pale and somewhat translucent.


    This reminded her of the previous asion when he had visited the concession stand. Back then, he


    had also looked pale, and even his lips. were a greyish-white color.


    At that time, Amelia had attributed it to his exhaustion.


    However, if Warren was also getting his blood drawn at the hospital back then, the timing matched as


    that had happened almost a month ago.


    Besides, the two nurses in the restroom had mentioned that he had blood drawn monthly!


    Amelia then asked, “Is it true that youe here for a blood draw every month?”


    Warren’s expression shifted slightly when he heard that. He then smiled and said, “Where did you hear


    that? Why would Ie here to have my blood drawn every month when I’m perfectly fine?”


    Amelia tightly pursed her red lips together and held a specific answer deep within her thoughts, yet…


    Suddenly, Amelia walked past Warren and pushed the door of the room open before she walked in.


    Inside, the nurse happened to be organizing the blood bags.


    Warren attempted to stop her, but it was toote. Amelia had alrea spotted one of the blood bags with


    Warren’s namebeled on it, an volume indicated was over 13 ounces.


    Amelia’s sudden entrance clearly caught the nurse by surprise as she hurriedly cautioned, “Miss, you


    cannot simply touch these blood bags!


    Amelia set the blood bag down, turned to look at Warren, and asked, “Is this entire bag of blood meant


    for your blood tests?”


    Warren pressed his thin lips together slightly and, after a brief pause, stated, “Let’s step outside. I’ll


    address all your questionster.”


    The two of them exited the room and moved to the corridor outside. Warren then inquired, “What about


    you? Have you finished your prenatal examination for today?”


    I’m still waiting for some of the reports, repliiddAmelia.


    Warren then asked in a low voice, “Is that soo?”


    chia ignored his question and asked Soocannygotellimme now why you had that bag of blood drawn?”
