Chapter 439
Liliana was always overshadowed by Serenity when Serenity worked at the law firm. Serenity shone so brightly that it made Liliana feel invisible.
Now, Liliana would make sure everybody in the law firm get a good look at Serenity. She wanted them to see what the so- called pride of the female lawyers from back then looked like now!
She wanted to let the people in the law firm know how wrong they were!
That was the only way her anger could be quelled.
Just then, a nurse passed by, and the co–worker who was talking to Liliana asked the nurse, “Excuse me, a staff member told us earlier that ultrasound room is not open for medical checkups, but a nurse clearly led someone who’s here for a medical checkup to that room. What’s going on?”
“Oh, that person must have booked our hospital’s VIP medical checkup package,” answered the nurse.
“VIP medical checkup package?” The co–worker looked stunned. She asked, “How much does that cost?”
“It depends on the package, but even the cheaper ones cost tens of thousands of dollars. The expensive ones can go up to six figures. If you want to know more, you can ask the special consultation desk on the 6th floor.” The nurse left after saying that The co–worker looked astonished. She turned around and saw Liliana’s similarly shocked face.
“Lily, is she really just a delivery rider? A medical checkup that cost tens of thousands of dollars was not something that the average person could afford.
“That’s impossible!” Liliana exclaimed, her face twisted in rage. “How can she afford a VIP medical checkup package?”
“But we did see her go into that ultrasound room,” the co–worker said. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Some of their co–workers nearby turned their eyes towards Liliana too.
Liliana realized that she had reacted too strongly. She quickly regained control of her expression and forced a smile. “There must be a misunderstanding.”
However, she could not help wondering what was going on. How could Serenity afford an expensive VIP medical checkup package like that?! Where did she get the money from?!
Meanwhile, in the ultrasound room, a doctor was performing an ultrasound on Serenity. When he got to where her uterus was, he couldn’t help but frown
“Ms. Lewis, have you suffered a very serious impact on your abdomen before?” the doctor asked.
Serenity’s heart sank. “Yes. Back then, the doctor who examined me told in the damage to my uterus was serious and irreparable.”
In other words, even if she took good care of her body afterwards and took the proper medicine to treat the injury, it wouldn’t help much, not to mention that she was in jail at the time, so there was no way she could get good treatment.
“Do you have a child?” the doctor suddenly asked.
“No.” Regret welled up in Serenity’s heart as she answered.
If being sentenced to three years in prison felt like being knocked down from heaven to hell, then losing the ability to bear children was like falling all the way down to the deepest layer of hell.
