At this point, a nurse who came by to administer the medicine walked past. She was surprised at what Penny said.

"Are you talking about the injured young lady in the ICU? She's not pregnant. It's just some external injuries. She will soon be discharged from the hospital!"

Since the hospital briefed the nurses about the gunshot wounds, the nurse answered the questions about the situation as told.

"Not pregnant?"

Penny let out a shriek. She was so shocked that she had lost her composure. If Alicia wasn't pregnant, hadn't she done something unnecessary?

Soon, she realized something and forced a smile, "I probably made a mistake, then. It's good that everything's fine! I can breathe easy..."

While muttering to herself, she almost broke her nails in her attempt to hide her emotions.

Over the past few days, she'd been restless. She couldn't get any answers, but she didn't dare to speak out. She really couldn't eat and sleep well! If she had known that Alicia wasn't pregnant, she wouldn't have come at all!

Wasn't she doing something unnecessary and extra?

All of a sudden, she realized that what she had done recently was like shooting herself in the foot! She had been unlucky lately.

Why did Alicia have such reactions when she wasn't pregnant? She was really lucky to have survived this incident.

This misunderstanding had tortured her so much! All her years of patience and hard work were almost ruined by this misunderstanding.

Penny was so angry that she was about to explode. She let out a smile, turned around, and walked away in large strides.
