An Baoying quickly masked her emotions and said, "She's only 20, and now she's unmarried and pregnant. This child absolutely cannot be born. Our An Family can't afford this shame..."
The doctor interrupted her, "Are you really her sister? What kind of sister are you? Instead of being concerned for her, all you care about is shame? Her body is very special. Even if the patient herself wants an abortion, we can't perform the surgery on her."
An Baoying was so choked with anger that her breathing became heavier. She retorted, "Of course I care about my sister's health. She's unmarried and pregnant. If she doesn't terminate it, does she plan to give birth and raise it? She might not even know who the father is! How can this illegitimate child be born?"
"Miss, I've already told you, your sister's body is special, she can't have an abortion. It would result in the loss of three lives. Do you understand?"
As the words fell, An Baoying's eyes widened in shock. "What did you say? Three lives?"
"Yes. She is pregnant with twins." The doctor finished, then looked at Huo Shaoyan, who stood with an inscrutable expression, "Sir, please go pay the medical fees."
Huo Shaoyan cast an ambiguous glance at the emergency room and asked the doctor, "How long until she wakes up?"
"She's already awake. Once the nutrient infusion is finished, you can take her home."
After the doctor finished speaking, Huo Shaoyan turned to An Baoying and said, "Go and pay the medical fees."
An Baoying was surprised for a moment before going to pay. Recently, on all her dates with Young Master Huo, he always picked up the tab. Why was he making her pay this time? Could it be that Young Master Huo was deliberately trying to send her away?
With a sense of unease, An Baoying went to pay the bill. Meanwhile, Huo Shaoyan walked over to An Ge, who was sitting in the IV drip room.
He silently watched An Ge's half-closed eyelids for quite a while before finally speaking coldly, "The canvas bag you're carrying, where did it come from?"
An Ge, still caught in the sorrow of her unexpected twin pregnancy, absent-mindedly responded, "What?"
Huo Shaoyan impatiently tapped her calf with his toe, "I'm asking you, where did the canvas bag you're carrying come from?"
"I... I made it myself."
Huo Shaoyan narrowed his Phoenix Eyes. "A month ago, did you go to the cellar at the Huo Mansion?"
As soon as those words were out, An Ge's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly denied it, "No."
Huo Shaoyan gripped her chin, his eyes relentlessly locking onto hers. "No?"
An Ge shook her head, "No... no."
Hadn't it been said that the fugitive's case had already been resolved? Why were they still asking about it? She'd heard that the fugitive was a ruthless drug lord. If she confessed now, wouldn't she be accused of drug trafficking? She had to keep denying it.
For emphasis, she added, "Young Master Huo, if you don't believe me, you can check the surveillance."
Huo Shaoyan was momentarily at a loss for words. The surveillance from the cellar that night had been tampered with, and he couldn't find anything.
His face grew colder. "Whose child is it?" After a pause, he asked harshly, "Could it be Second Uncle Huo's? Are you trying to use the child to climb up socially?"
An Ge was provoked by his words, clearly losing control of her emotions. "Young Master Huo, I've explained this to you about a hundred times. Although Second Master has been leering at me, until now, nothing has happened between us..."
Before she finished talking, Huo Shaoyan interrupted her, "Nothing has happened? At the Huo Family banquet, you yourself said you escaped through the window from his bed, and that night you were sneaking around the cellar. Do you dare say there's nothing fishy going on?"
An Ge evaded, "Young Master Huo, do you have feelings for me?"
Upon hearing this, he let out a cold laugh, "Feelings for you?"
An Ge tilted her head to look at him and said, "Otherwise, why are you so concerned about me and my child?" After a slight pause, her face lit up with a sudden realization, "Could the rumors be true? You can't have kids because of something that happened to you, and you're eyeing my child to claim it as your own?"
