Jessica couldn the lp but smile Wendy still had no idea about the sil u ation just thinking about her fate made Jessica feel a surge of triumph
“Wendy,it’sme.IjustwantedtothankyouforhelpingitscatchthefakeDr.Ceylan.We’reworkinghardtorecoverthemoneyweinvested.Althoughwewon’tbeabletogetitallback,Istillwanttothankyouforyourhelp.”WendywascurrentlyatRoyaleResidences,stayinginafterfewdaysofnotreallygoinganywhere.She hadbeenunusuallysleepylately,feelingconstantlytiredfornoapparentreason.
As Jessica thanked her Wendy raised an eyebrow a hint of disbelief in her voice Stop beating around the bush Just tell me what you want
Jessica thanking her Wendy didn t believe it for a second
Jessicalaughedsoftly.”Ihadasuddenpaininmychestandfaintedearliertoday.Iwasrushedtothehospital.Sincewe’vebeenthroughsomuchtogether,canyoucomebyand visitme?”
Wendy scoffed Why Would seeing me cure you What do we need doctors for then Jessica bit back her frustration Being sharp tongued was always a trademark of Wendy s She fought the urge to snap back She reminded herself to be patient as there was time The game had only just begun
Actually Stanley has been searching for a suitable heart forme He found one and it belongs to someone you know If you come over I ll tell you all about it

Afterhangingup,Wendytook asipofwarmwater.
Suddenly as our taste rose in her throat She bent over and gagged eventhough she hadn t eaten anything The dry heaving left her feeling nauseous and she couldn t stop until bile came up
What was happening to her
She quickly went to the bathroom to brush her teeth trying to shake off the discomfort
Then something occurred to her something important Her period which was always on time had not come yet

She had completely forgotten about the pill
That was when she had gotten pregnant
She figured she must be around 40 days along now
Wendy felt her head spinning Her mind went blank and for a moment she could barely think straight
Since their divorce she had completely cut ties with Stanley She never once imagined she could end up pregnant with his child
Now after all this time she was pregnant It was as if the universe was playing a cruel joke on her
Whatshouldshedonow?
Wendy placed a hand on her flat stomach still in disbelief Was this really happening Was there already a little life growing inside her
It was her and Stanley s child
