Ariana had intended to provoke a strong reaction, but Chloe remained calm, not showing the slightest sign of anger. Ariana felt like she'd hit a brick wall with her efforts.

Disappointed, she gave up on her confrontation and left the meeting room.

As Chloe stepped out, she encountered a visibly anxious Michael. Šeeing her, he quickly approached. "I've scheduled an appointment at the hospital. Let's head over now." He hadn't forgotten about taking her for a checkup.

Chloe, unable to refuse him and acknowledging that it was indeed time for her prenatal examination, agreed to go with him.

The checkup results were reassuring; the baby was perfectly healthy with no issues.

Michael, relieved upon hearing the news from the doctor, let out a sigh of relief. "That's a relief."

Over the next three days, Chloe focused most of her energy on preparing a project proposal, finding time to visit James at the hospital whenever she could. Initially, Maggie had been the sole occupant of James' hospital room.

However, things got lively after Vicky arrived in Mamaica.

Vicky, a spoiled socialite, had little patience for Maggie and often exchanged sharp words with her.

When James had had enough, he'd snap at Vicky, who would storm out of the room in a huff.
