Chapter 600

“Thank you, but I’m good. Don’t worry. I just need to go to the Esastin

Villa first to fetch my luggage, and then head to the manor.” Debbie took a deep breath, pretending to

be calm.

Left with no choice, Emmett handed her the car keys.

“Carlos has the

Emperor. This Mercedes-Benz belongs to the company. Just Leave it in the manor, and I’ll grab it later.”

“Sure. Thank you, Emmett.” Debbie took over the car keys and cranked the ignition. After hearing a

satisfactory roar from the engine, she drove off.

Little did she know that Emmett walked into the hospital as soon as she was out of sight. He went

straight to the obstetrics and gynecology department.

Several minutes later, Emmett called Carlos.

“Carlos, Debbie just drove herself back.”

“Mmm.” After a short pause, Carlos asked, “The test results?”

Recalling what the doctors had told him, Emmett swallowed before stammering, “Carlos, the pills would

harm a woman’s health. The doctors suggested Debbie stop taking—”

Before he could finish, Carlos hung up the phone.

Emmett looked in the direction where Debbie left, and wondered, ‘I thought Mr. and Mrs. Hilton loved

each other. Why take the pills?

What’s more, everyone knows long-term use of birth control pills is harmful. Why did Carlos allow his

wife to take them?‘

On her way, Debbie was absent-minded. She kept going over it in her head. What foods had she eaten

recently? Could any of those foods cause the results to skew?

She had eaten a lot of seafood lately. And scientists had recently found contraceptive compounds in

fish. Could the doctors be detecting that, instead?

Sometimes, she would pull over and think about whether there were the same steroidal compounds in

seafood and what kind of seafood might have the same chemicals.

But she had to admit that she knew next to nothing about this.

When she arrived at Esastin Villa, she plugged her phone in to charge it, since the battery died. It was

lunchtime; she ordered some food delivery on Meituan app. She sat down for a quick meal, then

checked to make sure she had all her Luggage, and drove towards the manor.

On her way to the manor, she kept thinking about what the doctors had told her. ‘There must be

something wrong with the two doctors. Is it possible that they were bribed? Maybe I can get a second

opinion somewhere else.’

There was another large hospital not far away. Debbie decided to turn around and drive to the hospital.

She stopped at a red light.

That was when her phone rang. She saw the caller ID, and it was an unknown number.

She connected the Bluetooth and then answered, “Hello?”

“It’s me.” Megan’s voice reverberated in the car.
