Upon arriving at the hospital, the doctor on duty briefly examined Lenora. There were not major issues found. "However, doctor, I'm pregnant. Could there be any implications?"
After some consideration, the doctor said, "I recommend that you have a gynecological examination."
"All right."
The doctor had written a prescription, and Lenora took it to the emergency gynecology department for examination.
After leaving the consultation room, Jonas stepped forward, asking with concern, "How did it go? What did the doctor say?"
Lenora said, "There's no major issue. I just need to run another check. I can handle the rest on my own. Why don't you head back first? Thank you for your help tonight. I'll definitely treat you to a meal another day."
"No need. Since I've come with you, a little more time won't make a difference. Let's go. Whatever tests need to be done, I'll be with you,
"The hospital is crowded, and it'll take a long time for the results to come out after the examination. Your identity is too conspicuous. It will be disastrous if someone recognizes. you and takes a picture."
Lenora was right; Jonas had left without wearing a mask. Fortunately, there were fewer people in the emergency room at night, just hurried doctors, nurses, and relatives of patients. They didn't have the energy to pay attention to others.
If he had gone with Lenora to wait for the results, sitting there would have been like being at target on display, and there was a chance that someone might recognize him.
Reluctantly, Jonas said, "I'll leave now. Please take care of yourself and let me know once you've finished your check-up."
"All right
Lenora went to the gynecologist for a check-up by herself.
After the test results came out, the doctor suggested that she stay in the hospital for overnight observation.

And so, Lenora had to spend another night in the hospital.
She had been visiting the hospital quite frequently lately.
Lenora called the maid at home, asking her to bring her a set of clean clothes.
Lenora frequently glanced at her phone screen.

An hour had already passed, yet there was not a single call or message from Zachary.
Miranda brought Lenora clothes, homemade soup, and toiletries.
After sipping the soup, Lenora glanced at the screen again, but still, there was nothing.
She held her phone, scrolled through Twitter for a while, then switched to a smaller account to browse through the super topic of a controversial couple of fans.
In the forum, there was a recent post that had been pushed to the top. The comments had already increased to several hundred, with likes in the thousands, and they were still steadily growing.
The post's content was about the Aurora Charity Banquet, a banquet for the wealthy. Someone had captured Zachary and Susanna leaving together and getting into the same car at the entrance. Below were nine attached illustrations.
Shot from the same angle, Susanna, arm in arm with Zachary, emerged from the main. entrance and made their way to the car. In the midst of this, Zachary even leaned over to listen to what Susanna was saying. In the center of the nine-grid layout was a dynamic image, seamlessly connecting the other eight pictures. It was evident from their intimate poses that the relationship between the two was remarkably close. Perhaps due to the timely suppression of trending topics, this post didn't make it to the hot search list. However, it still managed to excite the fans of the two as a couple during the New Year.
Previously, due to the clarification from Stardust Entertainment, those who had mocked Susanna one after another fell silent.
Lenora clicked on the animated image, watching the replay over and over again.
And up until now, there hadn't been a single piece of news or a phone call from Zachary
With a bitter smile, Lenora put down her phone feeling a chill deep in her heart.

She had known for a long time that she wasn't in Zachary's heart.

However, who could blame her for being so easily contented; her appetite for affection was so small? Merely Zachary bending down to put on her shoes was enough to move her deeply. After being moved, came disappointment.
After a sweet date, what followed was a slap.
Suddenly, the ringtone of the mobile phone sounded. A stir in Lenora's heart, she hastily answered. "Zack."
"Ms. Wilkin, is that correct? This is the police station...
As Lenora listened to the unfamiliar voice, a wave of disappointment surged in her heart. "Oh. Hello."
"It's like this. The banquet staff called the police, and through our surveillance investigation, we have detained the person who pushed you into the water. Do you have time now? Could you possibly come to the police station at Hill Road?" "Apologies, I'm currently at the hospital and can't come over. I'll arrange for a lawyer to come instead."
"All right."
After hanging up, Lenora still decided to hire the lawyer from Fuller Group's legal department, asking him to make a trip over.
Before going to sleep, Lenora glanced at his phone, but there was still no message from Zachary.
She fell asleep, carrying with her a sense of disappointment and regret.
When she woke up the next day, Lenora glanced at her phone screen, but in the end, there were no messages or calls from Zachary.
She had long given up hope on Zachary, yet her heart still felt heavy.
After leaving the hospital, Lenora went straight to the
company..
The secretary was waiting for her. As soon as he saw her emerge from the elevator, he promptly approached her and said, "Ms. Wilkin, Mr. Fuller has asked you to go to his office ast soon as you arrive."
With a smile, Lenora made her way toward the CEO's office.

Last time, Zachary asked her if she was the one who told his grandfather that he went to replace. Susanna. What was Zachary going to ask her this time?
Lenora walked in, standing in front of the office desk. "Mr. Fuller, you were looking for me?"
Zachary looked up at Lenora, noticing that she had already changed her clothes. He put down the file in his hand, leaned back in his chair, and said, "You're back." "Yes."
"Miranda told me that you didn't come back last night?" Zachary narrowed his eyes at her as
he asked.
"Indeed, I encountered a bit of an issue." Lenora nodded calmly.
"What's the matter? Do you need my help?"
Last night, at her most vulnerable, Lenora had hoped beyond measure for him to call and comfort her. But now, she no longer needed it.
His concern was neither here nor there for her.
"It's nothing. Just a trivial matter," Lenora said nonchalantly.
Zachary's eyes darkened as he looked at Lenora. His right hand rested on the chair's armrest, rhythmically tapping against it.
"Is there anything else? If not, I'll be heading back first."
Lenora turned around and left.
As she was about to reach the door, Zachary spoke up. "Were you with Jonas all night yesterday?"
Last night, he was with Susanna, so naturally, he would think of her in this way.
Lenora turned around to look at him. "Is there a problem?"
"Lenora, I know you have feelings for Jonas, but let me remind you. Given Jonas' status, paparazzi are always lurking around him. I suggest you keep your distance. If you were to be caught on camera, you should understand the consequences." Lenora felt like laughing, unable to hold back any longer. "Haven't you and Susanna been photographed together eight hundred times already?"
The situation is different."

"How is it different?"

"I am already a public figure, and you are not. If you are caught in the public eye, your information will be thoroughly exposed, every move scrutinized under the spotlight, and everything you do will be judged, Jonas' fans may not accept you, and apart from the online insults, there might even be extreme fans who would act irrationally. Are you sure you can endure all this?" Zachary asked calmly.
He was acutely aware that Lenora was unassuming, never appearing in front of the camera, nor did she enjoy the media's attention.
In the past, MQ product launches always had a dedicated brand spokesperson.
She seldom attended banquets where the media was present.
If she were with Jonas, constantly being on guard against the paparazzi would be an incredibly exhausting task.
Therefore, Jonas was simply not right for her.
Lenora remained silent.
"Moreover, considering Jonas' current position, if he were to be photographed, it could impact his career," Zachary continued, observing Lenora's expression.
Unlike Jonas, Susanna had the backing of Zachary's capital, so she didn't need to curry favor with fans.
Jonas was renowned for his exceptional acting skills among the younger generation, but overall, he was still an idol cherished by fans, relying on their support for his livelihood.
It must be said that Zachary's analysis was incredibly insightful.
However, Lenora did not want to compromise in front of Zachary then, nor did she want to accept Zachary's preaching.
"Thank you for your advice. However, if I truly love someone, these issues are insignificant
and can be overcome."
