Chapter 662 The Stranger

Abigail assisted in paying the nanny’s fee and added the person as a friend on WhatsApp. Then, she took out her phone to search for what a pregnant woman needed to prepare for a hospital stay.

“Doctor, how much longer will the pregnant woman in this operating room be?” Abigail dared not leave quickly and grabbed a nurse to ask.

The nurse glanced at the time and replied, “It’s uncertain. Do you need something?”

“I rushed here and didn’t have time to prepare what was needed. I don’t know if it’s too late to buy them now,” Abigail explained anxiously.

“There’s a supermarket next to the hospital. You can take a look. It will only take about ten minutes. The pregnant woman shouldn’t be out within that timeframe.” The nurse kindly informed Abigail.

Abigail nodded and quickly bought the items with her phone in hand in Adral, a very remote town. As she entered the deserted supermarket, she found the section selling mother and baby products and, in her haste, nearly collided with a few burly men.

“Sorry,” Abigail hurriedly apologized and maneuvered around them.
