She looks at me with her frowned eyebrows, saying nothing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m coming to the doctor.\u201d I explain simply and pretend to leave.<\/p>\n<p>But Whitney is not easy to be fooled. She pulls my clothes and asks coldly, \u201cWhat\u2019s wrong with you?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have a headache.\u201d I reply with my head lowered.<\/p>\n<p>I dare not look into her eyes, for I fear she would easily find that I\u2019m telling a lie.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHeadache? I don\u2019t see any sign of headache on you. Show me see your diagnosis report!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>No, I must end the conversation.<\/p>\n<p>If Whitney doubts me, she will use her power to check my medical record, and at that time she will know everything.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, are you afraid? It must be a shameful disease, isn\u2019t it?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Leaving Whitney exploding there, Mindy pulls me forward.<\/p>\n<p>I can feel there is a pair of vicious eyes staring at me behind, and I nearly can\u2019t walk steadily.<\/p>\n<p>A mistress is always faint-hearted when confronting with her man\u2019s legal wife.<\/p>\n<p>When I am wandering, Mindy shakes off my hand and gives me an angry look, \u201cLook at you. You are such a coward. She\u2019s just asked you several questions. Why are you so scared? I happened to see her come to this way, so I came back in case she would find you troubles. A kind girl like you definitely would be bullied by the vicious Whitney if I didn\u2019t help.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mindy stares at me with pity but also anger. I know she wants me to be strong.<\/p>\n<p>I have to admit I behaved like a coward just now. If Mindy didn\u2019t come to help me, I would even be forced to expose my pregnancy.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, Mindy, my goddess, has saved me from Whitney.<\/p>\n<p>However, I\u2019m quite curious about the reason why Whitney and Frances\u2019s mother came to the hospital.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-238","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/238","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=238"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
