Chapter 938 No Regrets

Upon Sonia’s question, Daphne released her grip on the door handle. “I was in the hospital, but decided to leave halfway through.”

“Halfway through?” Sonia frowned. “What do you mean? You’re not going through with the surgery?”

“Yeah.” Daphne nodded slightly.

“Why not?” Sonia was even more confused. “Does this mean that you regretted your decision just before the surgery?”

 

There was that possibility after all. There had been many women who had chosen to give up on their children out of impulsiveness. However, they would regret the moment it was time for them to go past the point of no return. Thus, it would not be out of place for Daphne to suddenly back out from her decision.

However, contrary to Sonia’s assumption, Daphne shook her head. “No, I’m not regretting it now. It’s just… I can’t go through the surgery today.”

“What do you mean?” Although confused, Sonia went over and supported Daphne over to the sofa, as Daphne would have a sore back from standing for a long period of time due to her pregnancy.

Feeling grateful to Sonia, Daphne smiled at her before she answered, “I was in the hospital to prepare for the surgery today. However, just before it was time for my surgery, I met Mrs. Lane.”

“Mrs. Lane?” Sonia was surprised to hear that name popped up.
