The Charming Ex-Wife

Chapter 521 I Dreamt Of A Scene Like This

At last, Lynn managed to grasp the essence of their drama. She handed the report to Josiah, saying, “Here, take a look for yoursell. Only when the HCG level is above five is there a possibility of pregnancy. According to Dr. Thorne’s numbers, there’s simply no chance of her being pregnant. If you still refuse to believe it, then there’s nothing I can do.”

Josiah took the inspection report, glanced at it, and casually set it aside.

“I did the math on my way here. It has been eight days since we last had sex. Can one find out if they’re pregnant within eight days?”

Lynn nodded. “It can be done in just seven days. What are you implying? Are you doubting the authenticity of this report?”

“Lynn, you were once her assistant. You were the one who helped her with the abortion last time, and to this day, there are no hospital records of Lysander ever having an abortion.”

Lynn instantly got frustrated. “Who do you think is to blame for her abortion? How dare you even speak about it? Also, falsifying medical reports is a breach of professional ethics, and I don’t plan on losing my job.”

Josiah’s attitude softened considerably immediately after that. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to question your professional integrity. I just… I just…”

Lysander stood up, clearly agitated as she said, “That’s enough, Josiah. Lynn is still at work. Let’s go, we shouldn’t disturb her.”

Josiah was speaking when, out of the blue, he took Lysander’s hand.

Startled, Lysander asked, “What are you doing?”

Josiah spoke carnestly, “Lysander, knowing your temperament, I’m sure you’d first lull me into a false sense of security, and then seize an opportunity to terminate the pregnancy when I’m not looking. I won’t make the same mistake twice.”

His voice wasn’t loud, but it was incredibly firm. If one listened closely, one could even detect a hint of

unease.

Lysander stood still, earnestly explaining. “But I really am not pregnant this time.”

“I’m sorry, Lysander, but I just don’t trust you right now.”

Lynn timely interjected from the side, “How about we do another check right in front of you right now?”

Josiah decisively rejected the idea. “Let’s switch to a different hospital.”

It wasn’t that he didn’t trust the medical skills of Central Hospital, but rather, everyone in the obstetrics. and gynecology department was well acquainted with Lysander. If she wanted to deceive him on her own turf, there were plenty of people who would aid her in her deception.

Upon realizing his words were falling on deaf ears, Lysander couldn’t help but feel a spark of irritation. “Can you stop being so unreasonable? I had no idea you were coming, so how could I have possibly prepared a fake report in advance?
