The melodic ringtone yed once before the call was picked up.
"Hello?" Celine''s clear, gentle voice came through.
Carly smirked. Celine had no idea what wasing. Just imagining her eventual fate filled Carly with satisfaction.
"Celine, I just wanted to thank you. Thanks to you, we managed to catch the fake Dr. C. We''re doing everything we can to recover the money the Tates lost. We won''t be able to get all of it back, but still, I appreciate your help."
At that moment, Celine was at Jupiter Heights. She hadn''t been going out much these past few days, spending most of her time sleeping.
For some reason, she had been feeling unusually drowsytely.
Upon hearing Carly''s words, Celine arched an eyebrow. "Carly, let''s not y games. Just say what you really want."
Carly thanking me? That was about as likely as pigs flying.
Carly chuckled as she said, "Celine, I had a heart episode today. I passed out and
was rushed to the hospital. No matter what, we''re still sisters. Won''t youe visit me?"
Celine replied, "If my presence could cure you, what would be the point of doctors?"
Carly was speechless.
That sharp-mouthed Celine...
Carly was itching to shut her up for good.
However, she forced down her anger. There was no need to rush as she had plenty of time.
The game had already begun.
Carly said, "Here''s the thing. Adam has been helping me find apatible heart donor, and guess what? He finally found one. The person was someone you know quite well. Come over, and I''ll tell you everything."
Oh?
Celine wasn''t sure what Carly was up to, but she would find out if she went to meet her.
Ever since learning that the Tates were responsible for Aaron''s death, she had been waiting for them toe knocking.
Celine replied with a smirk, "Alright, wait for me. I''ll be there soon."
After hanging up, Celine took a sip of warm water.
Just then, a sour sensation welled up from her stomach. Before she could react, she bent over and retched.
However, she hadn''t even eaten anything.
Her body convulsed in dry heaves, the bitterness of bile burning her throat.
What''s wrong with me?
Celine then went to the bathroom and began brushing her teeth.
As she rinsed her mouth, something suddenly clicked. She realized that she hadn''t had her period yet.
It was always on time, but this month...
She had been so busy since returning from Mand that she hadn''t even thought about it.
This time, her period was ten dayste.
What was going on?
Celine considered a possibility, and without hesitation, she took a pregnancy test.
Her delicate face drained of color as the result appeared. She was pregnant.

She couldn''t believe that she was actually pregnant after the divorce. It felt like a
cruel joke yed on her by fate.
What should she do now?
Celine ced her hand gently on her t stomach, still unable to fully grasp the reality of it all.
Was there really a little life growing inside her?
Was she really carrying Adam''s child?
She sat on the couch for a long time, lost in thought. After that, she stood up and headed to the hospital.
She needed to figure out what to do about the pregnancy, but for now, she had to meet Carly.
