True Love Deserves a Second Chance by Nox Shadow

Chapter 158 Difficulty in Getting Pregnant

He clearly remembered seeing a drawing of this necklace in Cordelia's drawer. The design, shape, and number of diamonds were identical.

Back then, he was captivated by the necklace, thinking it would look great on his little sister. Cordelia noticed his interest, ruffled his hair, and said, "I designed this for Connie's daughter. Think of it as a token of your affection for her. Do you like it?"

He shyly nodded with a smile. After Connie's accident, no one mentioned the necklace again.

Maybe it was just between Cordelia and Connie, and no one else knew. So, when Connie was dying and clutching the necklace, she must have wanted to say something.

Sebastian felt a tightness in his chest. He got up, stood on the balcony, opened the window, and took a few deep breaths.

He thought, 'Mom designed this token of affection for Joey and me. She wanted us to be together, but why is she trying to stop it now? Does she not know about Joey's background, or did something happen between her and Connie?' Sebastian clutched the necklace and said hoarsely, "I'll keep the necklace for now and investigate its origin. Maybe there are some clues."

Joey left the hospital room and headed straight to the gynecology department.

A few days ago, she had an exam, and today the results were out. She sat nervously in the doctor's office. "Doctor, has my condition improved?"

The doctor looked at the report and frowned. "Premature ovarian failure doesn't improve easily. Some people take medication for years without results. You've only been on it for three months, so there's not much improvement." Joey bit her lip in disappointment. "Is there no other way? Does this mean I can never get pregnant?"

"Don't lose hope. The chances are slim, but not impossible. As long as there's a glimmer of hope, you shouldn't give up. But if you plan to get married, be honest with your partner. If you can't conceive, it could lead to divorce." The doctor's words felt like a knife to Joey's heart. She had an eighty percent chance of not being able to conceive, and with a retroverted uterus, her chances were almost zero.
