Dylan riveted to the spot and gazed at the white door. His face was hard to read in the half-darkness.
Garwood was standing by him, waiting for a result from Dr. Shamon.
How did Miss Schultz pass out?
It was said that she was wronged by Valerie again, and then fell in a faint suddenly before everybody.
She must be so flustered and disappointed that she ultimately broke down.
Valerie… Too much! She framed Miss Schultz once and again!
Did that woman want to harm Miss Schultz till she had no place in the Sterling family?
Just then, the door of the ward creaked open. Jacob, dressed in a white doctor's overall, came out with the nurse. He said something to the nurse, and the nurse left first.
"How's she?" Dylan walked over to him.
Garwood followed, "Dr. Shamon, is everything all right?"
Jacob looked at Dylan with a complicated expression. He didn't speak for a long time and then sighed.
Dylan's eyes darkened. What did that mean?
Garwood became quite anxious by Jacob's reaction too.
"You got what you want this time. I'll be scolded to death by Savannah!" Jacob said to Dylan helplessly.
"What do you mean?" Dylan scowled and made as if to strike him, "cut the cackle! Tell me what's wrong with her!"
Jacob quickly dodged and said, "Savannah's been pregnant for at least a month."
Dylan froze!
Is she more than one month pregnant?
She said she was uncomfortable because she's pregnant, not to find an excuse to avoid him?
Garwood was surprised too.
"Are you satisfied now?" Jacob glanced at Dylan, "You forced me to change her contraceptives for vitamins! She'll certainly doubt how she could get pregnant while she's on the pill! If she knows that it's because I conspired with you, she'll break off with me!"
Garwood was speechless. It turned out that Miss Schultz had been taking contraceptives, and the pregnancy was caused by Mr. Sterling's cheating and replacing her contraceptives secretly.
What Mr. Sterling did was, of course, a little bit unkind. Miss Schultz must be furious about that!
"Are you, my friend or her friend? How's she now? Why did she get faint?" Dylan looked a little worried, frowning.
"She had a little anemia during the pregnancy, and maybe she didn't eat much these days. She's fine now. You can take her home after two days of observation in the hospital."
"Does Miss Schultz know she's pregnant?" asked Garwood in place of Mr. Sterling.
Jacob shook his head. "She woke up for a while but fell asleep again because she's so tired. I haven't had time to tell her yet."
She would raise hell when she knew it!
Dylan's face became stern, and he pushed Jacob aside, ready to enter the ward.
Dylan paused. Just then, his phone rang. It was old Sterling.
When Savannah was sent in to check, old Sterling phoned him several times.
He had no mood to speak to his father at that time. Now frowning at the screen, he finally answered the phone.
"What happened to Savannah?" Old Sterling's voice was full of concerns.
He was worried about Savannah when Dylan took her away. When Dylan didn't answer the phone just now, he became even more anxious.
"Didn't you just drive her out for Valerie? It's kind of funny to care about her now." Dylan scolded coldly.
Old Sterling was silenced by Dylan's words. He did feel a little guilty when he gave implicit consent to Valerie's unreasonable demand. After all, he had been with Savannah for so many days. But when Valerie came, he had to ask her to move out. This was really a little too far.
"Dylan, I didn't drive her out. She didn't want to make it hard on me, so she asked to leave. I know I wronged Savannah in this matter, but after all, Valerie is pregnant. The baby in her is the next generation of the Sterling family. Please ask Savannah to be considerate. When Valerie gives birth to the baby, everything will be fine. I will personally apologize to Savannah... "
Dylan was too angry to listen any more. Before his father finished speaking, he hung up the phone with a gloomy face.
Just because Valerie was pregnant, Savannah had to accommodate herself to her?
It didn't matter to others, but he couldn't see his woman suffer such wrongs!
"Dylan, why didn't you tell old Sterling that Savannah is pregnant too? Valerie's baby is, in fact, a Yontz, while the one in Savannah is a real Sterling. If you tell him, he must be overjoyed and pick up Savannah at once!" Jacob had just learned what had happened to Savannah from Garwood. He raised his brows when Dylan hung up the phone.
Dylan mused for a moment, then said firmly, "don't tell anyone about Savannah's pregnancy. Especially the one from the Sterling's house.
"Why?" Jacob and Garwood were amazed.
Old Sterling was dreaming of having a bigger family. This was a happy event, and there was no need to hide it.
If Savannah had an unwanted pregnancy, they might wonder if Dylan hid it because he did not want the baby. But Savannah's pregnancy was actually arranged by him, which meant he also wanted the baby.
"All in all, keep this pregnancy under wraps for the time being. I'll tell you when it's time to go public." Dylan slightly frowned, a little impatient.
Jacob knew that Dylan didn't like his words to be doubted. He said nothing more and went back to the office to deal with the rest of the work.
There were only two people left in the corridor.
Garwood took a deep breath and asked, "Sir, you don't want to tell the Sterling family about Miss Schultz's pregnancy for the moment... Are you afraid that anyone will do harm to Miss Schultz?"
Dylan gave an approving look to Garwood, who guessed his consideration. After a pause, he said quietly,
"Valerie's completely a madwoman. She dares to do anything to gain her end. Savannah's pregnancy is a serious threat to her position in the Sterling family. Since she can push Olivia downstairs, she can also harm Savannah to keep her place. What's more, in order to get the property of the Sterling family, Devin will go to all lengths! If he knows that Savannah is pregnant, I can't imagine what he will do to Savannah. Just in case, don't make it public yet."
