Sophia took a deep breath, but still, she couldn’t help throwing up. She then promptly rinsed her mouth before
turning on the faucet and washing her face. I’ve got gastric problems, and it’s a chronic illness at that, so this is
probably my gastric problems rearing its head again.
Sure enough, I’ve got to take good care of myself. I’ve just slacked off a bit, and my body is already staging a
protest, kicking up such a fuss!
After a while, she went downstairs. John and Logan were still there. During a lull in the conversation, John glanced at
her, only to be taken aback. “What’s wrong? You look exceedingly pale.”
Sophia went to the kitchen to boil some water. “Gastric problems.”
John had once witnessed her long-standing gastric problems when she even vomited blood at Tri Asel back then. His
brows creased. “Do you have any medicine here?”
Actually, there wasn’t any medicine here, but Sophia didn’t want to take any, so she replied, “Yes. I just took some
medicine, but it doesn’t seem to have gone down properly. It’s stuck in my throat, making me feel rather
discomfited, so I’ll just drink some water to wash it down.”
There were no flaws in her words, so John didn’t think too much of it.
After boiling some water, Sophia drank some in the kitchen, upon which her stomach felt somewhat better. Then,
she went back upstairs. She initially planned to lie on the bed and scroll through her cell phone for a while, but once
she climbed into bed, a rush of drowsiness immediately swept over her.

Losing her temper, she swore before putting down her cell phone. Ignoring Logan and John, she got up and locked
the door before hitting the sack. She had no idea when the people downstairs left, for she slept right through the
night.
When she woke up the next day, the sun was already shining brightly outside. As she sat up, her mind still felt fuzzy,
but she then got out of bed to wash up after darting her gaze around. However, the moment the toothpaste went
into her mouth, the same wave of nausea rose within her.
She sucked in a breath, finding it a tad strange. I’ve been having gastric problems for years on end, but it has never
felt like this. Gazing at herself in the mirror, nausea abruptly assailed her, but it was flitting, for it was then gone in
the next instance.
She hurriedly washed up. When she came out, she took out her cell phone and did a search. However, her
symptoms were too broad, so a myriad of answers popped out after her search. She stared at the topmost result,
her gaze intensely serious.
She then gave Robin a call and said that she wouldn’t be going over to the shop that morning since she had
something to do. Used to such behavior from her, Robin instantly murmured an acknowledgment.
Sophia dawdled for a long while before changing. Then, she headed to the hospital. When she did the registration,
she kept wavering, uncertain whether she should have her stomach or some other part checked.
Although it was more likely that she was having gastric problems, she felt that some things couldn’t be ignored.
Thus, she went to the gynecology department after turning the matter over in her mind.
It was slightly late in the day when she arrived, so many people were waiting for their turns. She was somewhere at
the end of the queue with a dozen people before her. Finding a seat, she then sat down, her mind blank.
Actually, there were plenty of things she couldn’t really figure out, so she just couldn’t fathom how such a possibility
existed. She waited for a long time before her name was finally called.
When Sophia went in, she was greeted by a young female doctor who was wearing a mask, her expression a tad
rigid. The doctor inquired about her ailment, to which Sophia licked her lips before answering, “I often feel sleepy
and nauseous.”
Studying her, the doctor could already guess what she wanted to ascertain. After all, she came to the gynecology
department and described the typical symptoms, so there wasn’t any other possibility.
Hence, the doctor typed out her recommendation on her computer right away. “Go and have a blood test. You’ll
know for sure whether you’re pregnant when the results are out.”
Initially, Sophia had wanted to ask whether it was a misinterpretation on her part and whether it could have been
caused by her gastric problems since she’d been suffering from the ailment for more than a decade.
