Chapter 147

"Isn't that Lily's voice?" Irene thought. She turned her head a little and saw Lily and Deborah come in through another door in sunglasses. "We don't have to line up if we come early," Deborah replied.

"Come at night if you are afraid of lining up. Madam Walker is here anyway. Why do we have to come so early?" Lily replied with displeasure. She returned home at midnight, but Deborah still dragged her out to have a check-up early the next morning, hence disturbing her sweet slumber. Lily was irked.

"Let's have an examination first. It's better to settle this matter sooner, idiot!" Deborah chided as she grabbed Lily's hand and hurried upstairs. They were in a hurry that they did not see Irene, who was standing next to the bulletin board. Irene heard their conversation clearly. "Madam Walker? Marie is a specialist in this hospital. Are they referring to Marie?" she wondered.

"Lily called her Madam Walker, as if they are close to each other. Is Marie an acquaintance of them?" Irene scratched her head.

Seeing that it was almost her turn, Irene went upstairs too. The Gynecology and Obstetrics Department was on the second floor while the Infertility Department was on the third floor. Irene saw Deborah and Lily went up to the third floor. She went straight to the Gynecology and Obstetrics Department on the second floor. When the doctor heard that she was going to have a blood test to check her pregnancy status, he gave her an invoice and asked her to proceed to the cashier to make payment. The physician in charge of blood testing then asked her to come over to get her results at noon.

Seeing that it was still early, Irene went outside to wait for the results. She needed not to go far. There was a small garden between the hospital wards and the clinic. It was decorated with a fountain, flowers, and trees. The surroundings were beautiful and peaceful. Irene went to the garden and sat by the fountain. She scrolled through the news on her phone.

This place was really quiet. Irene watched the news for a while and suddenly heard a familiar voice. "Why do you pull a long face just now? What would Marie think? She is doing this for your own good," Deborah said.

Irene was hidden by a huge stone; she was able to see Lily and Deborah but they couldn't see her.

"I can't be happy," Lily replied.

"You have to be happy no matter how displeased you are. You're lucky this time. You happened to be menstruating. So, we are able to do tests that can be done only when you are on menstruation. When your menstruation has ended, let's come back for another check- up," Deborah said.

Lily was very impatient. "It's so annoying. Haven't I taken these examinations before? Why do I have to take the tests again this time?" she asked.

"Silly girl, that was three years ago. We wouldn't know your latest fertility status if we don't take the tests again," Deborah comforted her. "It's for your own good. Be patient, though it's a little troublesome. We have to ensure that everything will go perfectly well."

"I'm flustered when I see Marie's face. Mom, can we change to another hospital? I don't want to deal with her at all." Lily still looked rather unwilling.

"No way, I only trust her with this. Anyone else might not be able to do it right," Deborah replied.

"Why do you trust her so much? She is so cruel. She can even hurt her own niece. I'm afraid that she will do the same to me," Lily continued.

"You're not the same as her niece. Don't worry. Even if she treats everyone with malice, she will always treat you with tender care," Deborah added. "Just be patient, remember to smile at her and pull an attitude, understand?"

Lily promised Deborah unwillingly and they left. Irene was very surprised. Why did Lily and Deborah come to the hospital? Listening to their conversation, Lily seemed to be discontented with Marie. They said that Marie was cruel enough to hurt her own niece. As far as Irene knew, Marie had no relatives. Who was her niece?

Also, why did Lily have to do the examination during and after her menstrual period? Did Lily have any gynecological sickness?

Edric said that he had agreed to get engaged to Lily because Marie said that Lily could not conceive. Could it be that Lily came to the hospital this time to treat her infertility?

Multiple questions started to flood Irene's mind and she could not make a single sense out of them. She sat in the garden for a long time and soon noon arrived. She stood up and went back to the hospital.
