After being in the hospital for three days, I couldn't stay any longer. So, I called Hendrix to ask him to pick me up. However, the phone rang for a long time, and he didn't answer the call. When I called again, the phone was already turned off.

That left me no other option but to ask Heather to apply for discharge. Also, we would need to take a taxi back home.

"Mrs. Roberts, although you're free to go home now, you still need to be careful. We wouldn't want anything to happen to you right now. I think you'd better stay home and rest more for these few days." Heather continued while she began to pack my belongings, "You're only weeks from your due date, and your pregnant belly is getting bigger day by day. If it weren't for the fact that you don't like staying in the hospital, I think you're much safer in the hospital than anywhere else!"

I listened quietly to her nagging, worried about why Hendrix didn't answer the phone. Perhaps he was too busy. It wasn't easy for the Roberts Group to gain a firm foothold in Jarold City.

He had been going out early and returning late since we had arrived at Jarold City. But I had no idea what was going on with the business, and I wouldn't be able to help anyway.

After Heather was done packing the belongings, she asked the bodyguard to carry them all to the car. Then, she held me and continued, "You must remember to take medicine even after we went home. Oh, I'l remind you in case you forgot about it."

I nodded. While we were waiting for the elevator, Heather's cell phone rang and she answered the phone. I was almost grateful for the call to give me some silence.

The elevator doors opened, and it was packed with people inside. Heather was still on the phone when she saw that I was about to enter, tugging at my arm, she said, "Mrs. Roberts, let's wait for the next one. It's too crowded!"

I glimpsed into the elevator. Indeed, there were a lot of people. So, I put my foot down and continued waiting.

Fortunately, we didn't need to wait for too long before the next elevator arrived. Heather had already hung up the call by then. She came to support me and said, "Mr. Roberts said that you shouldn't rush to go home for the time being. It's better to stay in the hospital for a few more days."

I shook my head. I really didn't want to stay in the hospital any longer. However, there was a more pressing question at hand. "Did he call you just now?"

Heather nodded, "He said he called you several times, but you didn't answer. We must have forgotten to bring it here from the villa when we packed for you."

I simply answered as a response. At this time, the elevator door opened again, and we arrived on the ground floor.

There were a lot of people in the main lobby of the hospital. Heather kept her arms around me because she was afraid that someone might bump into me, and she whispered, "Hospitals here are different from those in Ucrebury. It's crazily crowded here, so it's easy to collide with others if you're not paying attention."

I looked at the nurses who were very occupied at the information counter, and I couldn't help but agree with Heather. Indeed, there was already a throng of people in the private hospital in Jarold City, I couldn't imagine the crowd in a public hospital.

"Hey, isn't that Miss Moore? Why is she at the hospital?" Looking in the direction of the pathology department, Heather asked in surprise.

I looked over and saw Andrea. I was surprised at her presence in the hospital as well. Moreover, she was doing a blood test. I couldn't help but wonder why she did the blood test.

"Mrs. Roberts, I'll go and greet Miss Moore," Heather said as she helped me to sit down at the rest area. Then, she walked towards Andrea.

Initially, I didn't realize that Heather was referring to Andrea. It was when she walked towards Andrea that I only remembered that Andrea had changed her surname to Moore since she returned to her birth family.

However, the way Heather spoke of Andrea and the familiarity between them raised my suspicion.

The two of them exchanged conversation happily. After the blood test, Andrea pressed the part where the blood was drawn with a cotton swab, and she turned to look at me.

Heather said something to her, then they began to make their way towards me.

"Arianna, long time no see!" Andrea said, and she was smiling a little too triumphantly.

I didn't know why she was so smug, but I still nodded as a response. I looked at Heather and said, "We should go."

Heather seemed as though she hadn't noticed my annoyance. She smiled and said, "Do you know Mrs. Roberts too, Miss Moore? What a coincidence!"
