"Dave, you're still worried about me, aren't you?"
Dave's face remained expressionless. "Take your medicine."
Nelly's eyes sparkled with anticipation. "Could you... feed me?" "No."
Dave's refusal was blunt.
Even if he needed to uncover the deleted surveillance footage from that night through her, he couldn't just
change his attitude towards her abruptly. Given her calculated moves, suspicion was inevitable.
"Leave it here. Whether you drink it or not is up to you. If you don't want this baby, it's not my place to say. It's
your right to decide its fate."
With that, Dave left the room.
Nelly stared at the bowl of medicine, lost in thought.
In the wee hours, Christine woke up, wanting to head to the bathroom.
Jane quickly cto her aid, asking, "Still feeling dizzy and nauseous?"

"Much better." Christine's voice was hoarse, her steps a bit unsteady. "But this bump on my head sure hurts."
"Lucky you didn't knock yourself silly."
Jane helped her sit on the toilet, casting a glance at her forehead. "That bump's going to take a few days to go
down. Just rest up in the hospital for now, and try not to worry about anything." Christine had intended to nod
but suddenly felt dizzy as she lowered her head, quickly grabbing Jane's hand for support.
After a moment, she sighed, "I guess this is a trial most people have to go through. Love makes you vulnerable.
Look at you and Greg, and all those melos."
Jane disagreed, "Life's full of hardships. Can't expect it to be smooth sailing."
"Your head's not in the right place now. Stop pondering over these things."
Back in bed, Christine looked at her pitifully. "I'm thirsty."
Jane helped her drink swater.
Feeling somewhat better and having slept a lot, Christine was more alert.
She brought up the video to Jane.
"I vaguely heard them say it wasn't fake, that it's real?"
Jane replied, "Dave's saying they still need to investigate. Can't be
completely sure yet. At this stage, no evidence of it being fake has been found."
Christine smiled wryly, "We must've been drugged that night. Anything happening would've been normal. | won't
hold it against Dave."
"After all, | woke up next to Merritt, and my clothes were all disheveled."
Seeing her still looking pale, Jane said, "Rest up for now. We'll talk more when you're better."
Christine waved her off, "I'm okay now. | don't want to keep it all bottled up. Stay and chat with me."
"| told Dave last night, until it's
proven that the baby in Nelly's
womb isn't his, you two should stay apart. If you happen to bump into each other, avoid it, especially avoid Nelly
She'll definitely try to you."

Christine agreed, "We knew from the start she was trouble, yet we still got caught off guard."
Jane internally blamed Dave, though she didn't voice it.
After a moment of silence, she asked, "Do you really not consider breaking up with Dave at all?"
Christine laughed, "I know you're worried about me, but if | was scared, nothing would've happened between us
that night." "For now, let's solve each problem as it comes."
"In the end, if there are still insurmountable issues between us, I'll consider breaking up."
It was the first tJane saw Christine so emotionally invested.
She had been worried about
Christine's past relationship with et
Steven knowing how dark her past was and how fragile her heart could be under repeated injuries.
But eventually, Christine let go of Steven quite easily.
