Chapter 225

Leah took the cup from Ron and had a sip of water. Then, she slowly shook her head. "It's not him."

Ian and I have never gone that far in our relationship. All we ever did was hold each other's hands.

On the other hand, I just can't bring myself to tell Ron that the father of my child is Shawn.

She continued shaking her head. "Let's not talk about it."

Shawn could sense her reluctance to discuss the matter. He pursed liis lips slightly as he looked at her pale, ashen face. Then, he changed the topic.

"The doctor said that you were in critical condition earlier and that you should take good care of your body after this. I think you should stay at home for the time being. I'll send some of my men over to escort and protect you." Ron tucked the blanket around Leah's shoulders and said matter-of-factly.

Leah replied hesitantly, "Is that absolutely necessary?"

Ron frowned and stopped smiling at that instant. He looked at Leah with a stem expression on liis face. "Of course it is. Unless you don't mind what happens to your body or the child you're carrying?"

Leah placed her hands over her stomach. Her face seemed to have grown paler. "I get it already."

She might have considered having an abortion at one point. However, once she had made up her mind to have the baby, she would do anything in her power to keep it safe.

In the afternoon the next day. the doctor came by the ward and advised Leah of what she needed to be mindful of. Then, he allowed her to be discharged from the hospital.

At the same time, Serena had somewhat found out what had happened to Leah, and she showed up in her ward that afternoon.

Serena had been rather busy at work lately, so she hadn't gotten in touch with Leah in quite a long time.

However, since there were a lot of reporters present at the charity auction, those guys got the news of Leah's incident out almost instantaneously. It was simply a matter of time before Serena learned of it.

"Cindy. why haven't you told me about what happened?!" Serena admonished her in a raised voice the minute their eyes met.

Leah replied weakly, "I didn't want to bother you since you seemed quite busy recently."
