The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 18 He Doesn’t Belong To Her

Daphne drove a big red Porsche. Although her family was not as wealthy and influential as the Guerras, they still had a good reputation, and she was their only daughter, so she had been pampered since childhood. Apart from that unfortunate experience in her senior year of high school, she had hardly suffered any setbacks.

Daphne stated, “Don’t go back to that apartment, and don’t stay in a hotel. Come stay at my place for a while; consider it as keeping me company.”

Lysander shook her head. “Take me to the hospital.”

Daphne was speechless for a moment. “Why? Are you trying to numb the pain of heartbreak with work?”

“Not really.”

“Then why go to the hospital? You’ve finally taken a vacation, so why don’t we go on a trip together? I’ll take you to Thailand to experience hot guys-

Lysander paused for a moment and slowly uttered three words, “To have an abortion.”

Lysander started studying medicine at the age of 18, majoring in clinical medicine for her undergraduate degree and specializing in obstetrics and gynecology for her postgraduate studies.

Since she started interning at the hospital, she had seen countless girls coming in for abortions, but she had never imagined that one day, the roles would be reversed, and she would go from being a doctor to a patient. The pregnancy was still in its early stages, so she didn’t need surgery and could opt for a medical abortion directly. She was more familiar with these procedures than anyone else.

Therefore, without alarming anyone, she went directly to find Lynn, who was initially stunned and

Lysander smiled. “Didn’t you also say that pregnancy and childbirth have a big impact on a woman’s career and life? I think you’re right.”

Lynn looked embarrassed. “But your marriage is so bessful. Why not stay?”

“Do you think so?”

Lynn pouted. “Aren’t you happy? Don’t you know how many female doctors and nurses envy you? Your husband is handsome, caring, and kind-hearted. He even helps pregnant women who have accidents on the road and takes them to the hospital. He’s a rare man.”

Rare man?

The last time Lysander had heard this term was during the typhoon two years ago. It had been extremely destructive and blew cars away. However, childbirth didn’t wait for the weather; during that time, several pregnant women in the hospital were due to give birth, and one of them even had a difficult delivery with heavy bleeding. The obstetrics and gynecology department was short-staffed, so
