Next One Is a Babe

Lady Jennifer looked like she wanted to say something, but after a pause, she swallowed those words and just sighed. "Right, let's go in now. Didn't you say that there’s a girl you’re interested in? Why don’t you bring her home and show her to me one day?"

Soon, it was time for Sophia’s pregnancy checkup, and John took a day off work to accompany her. This time, Matilda didn’t come along, and it was John who accompanied Sophia.

John took a back route this time and found a doctor he personally knew. So, they didn't have to line up like the others.

When the two arrived at the hospital, they were straight away arranged to go in for an examination and a blood test.

The examination was done very speedily, and they ended the checkup by seeing the doctor once more. As Sophia had no major problems with her pregnancy, the doctor just told her to go back and take good care of her health.

After Sophia came out of the doctor’s office, she thought for a bit and said to John, "Wait for me here. I'm going to the restroom."

John didn't think too much into it and simply agreed. Then, he followed Sophia toward the direction of the restroom and stopped outside.

The restrooms in the hospital were relatively large, especially the ones near the gynecologist department. The female restroom area was very spacious. When Sophia entered, there were a number of people inside.

Most of them were pregnant with big bellies. Compared to these people, her belly was still considered quite small.

Sophia was walking toward the toilet when someone came toward her.

The woman was wearing a hat and a face mask. When she came over, she raised her eyes and glanced at Sophia before quickly withdrawing her gaze. It was this sudden glance that made Sophia feel that something was not right.

She had come to the hospital several times for pregnancy checkups now, and so she had encountered many strangers. Whenever someone subconsciously glanced at a stranger, there would not be any emotion in their eyes.

However, when the woman looked at her, it looked as if she was confirming something. Her eyes had paused upon Sophia for a while.

Sophia's life hadn’t been peaceful recently, so she was rather wary about her environment. Therefore, she subconsciously got a little further away from this woman. Then, she walked a few steps toward the people on the other side. Putting up her guard, she paid that woman a little more attention.

As the woman came nearer to Sophia, the former’s footsteps slowed down for some reason.

Sophia lowered her eyes to glance at the woman’s hand, which was digging around in the pocket of her clothes.

Sophia’s reflex reacted faster than her comprehension. Before she realized what was going on, she had already dodged aside as that woman suddenly drew something out from her pocket and stabbed it toward her.

This woman’s movements were fast, but Sophia dodged even faster. So, the item in that woman’s hand ended up stabbing the girl next to Sophia, who screamed in shock and pain.

Outside, John had heard the scream. Without any time to think about it, he rushed in.
