We Are Not Getting Remarried: Show Yourself Out

Chapter 1689 Swift and Decisive

With Elisa and Rachel in the room, Linda realized she couldn't just leave them abruptly.

She took a deep breath, attempting to restrain her emotions. At the same time, a conversation between Rachel and Elisa caught the attention of a passing nurse.

The nurse, a middle-aged woman with a no-nonsense demeanor, turned her gaze towards Rachel and Elisa. Her eyes scanned them briefly before she said, "Can I help you?".

Rachel swiftly straightened her posture and replied confidently, her voice steady, "I'm here for a check-up," she responded.

"What kind of check-up?" The nurse asked out of habit, but Rachel's swift reply caught her off guard. "I want to find out if I'm pregnant."

The nurse couldn't believe her ears and found herself chuckling unintentionally. "Miss, if you want to find out whether you're pregnant, you should buy a pregnancy test kit from the pharmacy. Pregnancy checks aren't conducted in the emergency department. You'll find the outpatient registration area if you turn left and go straight for a bit."

Rachel felt a twinge of frustration but maintained her composure, knowing that her next words were crucial to avoid raising Linda's suspicions.

Thinking on her feet, she explained to the nurse, "I'm concerned that the test kits in the pharmacy might not be accurate. I apologize for not knowing that pregnancy checks aren't performed in the emergency department. Still, I've already paid for the registration. Can we just proceed with the pregnancy check here?"

Rachel had gone to great lengths to lure Linda to the hospital, and Elisa felt embarrassed.

Rachel's eagerness to help had clouded her judgment, neglecting common sense. As someone knowledgeable in medicine, Elisa was well aware of hospital protocols but had yet to advise Rachel in time.

The nurse regarded Rachel with disbelief and impatience, but Rachel endured the judgment. "Since I have already paid, please direct me to the doctor's office? I would like to proceed there."

The nurse pointed in a direction, eager for Rachel to leave.

Little did they know that the attending physician that day would be Jeremy, a close friend of Gareth and Vincent.

Rachel's heart sank. Oh no! Why does it have to be him?

Even Elisa seemed taken aback.

Jeremy, upon spotting the two women, also showed a brief moment of astonishment before quickly regaining his composure.

Adopting an official tone, he inquired, "What seems to be the issue?"
