Chapter 65:

Holding the thin piece of paper, Kallie’s head spun. The world seemed surreal to her.

Kallie barely grasped what the doctor was saying next. “Based on her blood work, she’s been dealing with anemia and malnutrition, hasn’t she? She’s not fully recovered, and now with the baby, it’s pulling nutrients from her, which caused her to faint.”

“She did suffer from malnutrition before. What’s our next step?” Linsey seemed equally bewildered. She had barely come to terms with Kallie’s decision to divorce, and now this unexpected pregnancy threw everything into further disarray. Her thoughts were scattered.

The doctor replied, “It’s your call. Her current health isn’t ideal for a pregnancy, but continuing with it isn’t out of the question.”

It was not at a hospital affiliated with the Reeves Group. It appeared Gregory had taken Kallie to a facility where the Lyndon family had influence. The staff here were likely unaware of Steven or Jake.

Kallie took her time assessing the situation. She figured the hospital staff wouldn’t likely share news of her pregnancy, so she just needed to ask Gregory to help keep this a secret.

“What do you think?” the doctor asked, noticing Kallie’s prolonged silence.

Kallie jolted back to the present, only then catching the doctor’s question.

“She’s wondering how she could be pregnant considering she thought she was not in her fertile days during… You know, that time.” Linsey stepped in to translate Kallie’s sign language, her cheeks reddening slightly.

The doctor smiled reassuringly. “I know sign language. There really isn’t a foolproof safe period. Pregnancy can occur at any time if precautions aren’t taken.”
