Chapter 281
Suddenly, Miss Zuri looked ahead with a look of surprise on her face. "Why is Miss Louis here in the hospital?”
I followed her gaze and glanced through the window o f the pathology department and saw Cindy standing there clad in a white dress. I froze. Enemies indeed often crossed each other's paths. I could not believe w e actually saw each other here.
However, what disease did she contract that she needed to do a blood test?
Miss Zuri helped me to the seating area to take a seat. Instead of lining up at the payment counter, she went t o the pathology department and called out affectionately from a distance, "What are you doing here, Miss Louis?"
Miss Louis?
It took me a long time to realize what was going on. Cindy had acknowledged her new family now and would have to change her last name to Louis to be the true daughter of the Louises.
When Cindy turned around and saw Miss Zuri, she let out an enthusiastic smile. The two spoke like they had known each other for a very long time.
How did they know each other? Cindy had always been a condescending lady, so why was she suddenly s o close to a servant?
The two chatted for a while. Miss Zuri then pointed at me before going to the payment counter to stand in line. Cindy looked at me and used a piece of cotton to press on the area where her blood was drawn and walked toward me.
"We meet again, Wanda." She looked at me from above with a condescending look in her eyes. She stared smugly at me.
Strangely, I could not detect the usual resentment in her eyes. More than anything else, there was arrogance and superiority.
I did not understand why she was behaving this way, nor did I want to exchange pleasantries with her. Hence, I nodded slightly to acknowledge her.
She was nonchalant about my indifference and looked at me with a smile before naturally sitting down beside me. She stared at my belly and said with a smile, "From what I see, you're about to deliver, huh?"
I nodded, then stood up and sat on another seat. To be safe, I thought it would be better to stay away from her.
She covered her mouth and laughed. "You don't need t o be so afraid of me. I won’t hurt you. After all, the child in your belly belongs to Theowy and the baby will also be considered mine in the future."
"Watch your mouth, Cindy Reed. What do you mean the baby will be considered yours?” I asked with a growl, infuriated.
She smiled but said no more. However, I could not help but feel like there was a special meaning behind her smile. I felt inexplicably flustered, and a chill raced down my spine.
I was about to ask her when Miss Zuri returned after paying the bills. Forget it, it would be a waste of breath to ask Cindy anyway. I got up and said, "Let's g o out and wait for Lowe, Miss Zuri!" Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
Miss Zuri did not seem to hear me and chirped, "So you know each other!"
At this moment, Cindy was notified by the PA system t o retrieve her ultrasound report. Cindy looked at me and said, "Miss Lane, I just got my blood drawn and a m feeling a little dizzy. Can I have Miss Zuri retrieve m y report for me?”
Left with no other choice, I nodded and took my seat again.
Miss Zuri said, "It's okay, I'll go. Take a seat and have a rest, Miss Louis."
Cindy's smile grew even wider now. “Looks like you're about to deliver in a few more days. It seems that Theowy won't be able to bring you to my birthday party anymore.”
Birthday party? Theo did not mention anything about a birthday party, though.
"If you have something to say, then spit it out!" She deliberately sent Miss Zuri away just so she could talk about Theo.
Even though I was cold and indifferent to her, she was surprisingly not the least bit angry and merely said with a smile, "I'm just worried about you. We’re old friends, after all. I can't bear to see you like this..."
I frowned without a word, unsure where her sense of superiority came from.
Miss Zuri rushed over with a smile on her face while holding the ultrasound in her hand. She said with great excitement, "I've long heard that you're about to get engaged, Miss Louis. This is another piece of good news! Congratulations.”
"Hehe." Cindy covered her mouth with both hands and laughed uncontrollably. After thanking Miss Zuri, she got up and said, "I'm leaving now. I'm in a rush to share the good news with my fiance. Let's catch up some other time, Miss Lane.”
Seeing her leave, I grew curious and asked Miss Zuri," She's pregnant?"
"Mm, 40 days now as written in the report. She just got pregnant. Miss Louis is really lucky. Not only did she find her birth parents, but she also found a good man. I heard that her fiance is handsome
and rich. The news has spread to the upper class circle in Whaldorf City. Even servants like us have heard about it."
