Chapter 117

“No,” the doctor answered with a shake of his head, which caused Sonia to sigh in relief.

That’s good to hear.

Judging from his serious expression, she almost believed that she had suffered from some terminal illness.

“What is the diagnosis then?” She looked at him and asked in concern.

The doctor placed Sonia’s report on the table. “I’m not too sure. How about this? You should get a checkup at the OB-GYN. Cases like yours usually fall under the purview of that department.”

“OB-GYN?” The corner of Sonia’s lips twitched in shock. Isn’t it just some abdomen pain? Whis he asking me to go to the OB-GYN?

“Yes, my diagnosis is that you’re pregnant. Hence the suggestion,” the doctor answered with a nod.

Her eyes wavered as her mind went blank. It took her quite a while to return to her senses before she croaked in a hoarse voice, “A-Am I pregnant?”

“I think so,” he replied.

Sonia stumbled for a little and felt the world spinning wildly around her. I’m pregnant. How could that be?

She stood up and took the report as she stumbled to the OB-GYN after having decided to go for a thorough checkup at the OB-GYN. What if I’m not pregnant? Maybe the doctor from the Gastroenterology Department misdiagnosed me.

The elevator doors slid open after a chime.

The moment Sonia walked out of the elevator, she looked around to confirm that the OB-GYN was on the left and hurried in that direction.
