Chapter 145:

Kallie messaged Brent, urgently saying she needed to leave the hospital.

Brent did not inquire why. Instead, he focused on her whereabouts and her condition.

Brent immediately agreed to help. “Don’t worry. I’ll get you out of here,” he assured her.

Reading his messages, Kallie’s anxiety lessened.

Over the following days, they devised a plan to escape.

Fortunately, Jake hadn’t completely confined Kallie.

As long as Kallie followed the treatment plan and took her medications, she was allowed some freedom. However, she was not permitted to leave her ward.

At times, Kallie felt like a closely watched prisoner. She yearned to confront Jake. Yet, whenever she requested to see him, they told her Jake was too swamped with work.

Kallie suspected he wasn’t actually busy. Rather, he was avoiding her and the pregnancy.

Then, unexpectedly, Kallie’s primary doctor appeared. His visits were rare, occurring only during significant events.

The moment Kallie saw the primary doctor, she felt a wave of nervousness wash over her. She rose from her seat and stealthily took a few steps toward the corner.

With the help of her phone’s text-to-speech function, Kallie inquired what he needed from her.

The primary doctor wore a complex expression, as if he were torn between speaking his mind and resigning to silence. Finally, after a moment of indecision, he spoke. “Kallie, I’ve come to discuss the baby you’re expecting.”

She quickly typed on her phone,
