Goodbye, Ex-husband! I'm Pregnant with Your Uncle's Child!

Miss Land felt a churning in her stomach and couldn't help but vomit, splattering it onto the man.

Noah Quarter's icy expression instantly stiffened.

He looked at the vomit on his body and glared harshly at her.

Julia Land covered her mouth to explain, yet she felt a slight sense of satisfaction, "I've been feeling unwell these past few days."

Noah Quarter disdainfully took off his soiled clothing and threw it on the floor, revealing his well-built physique.

Before he left the study, he coldly warned her,

"Move back to Jade Gardens. If grandma finds out you've moved out, I won't spare you."

It was impossible for Julia Land to move back to Jade Gardens now.

She had one most important thing to do.

That was to find a safe place to get an abortion, otherwise she would continuously worry about being discovered.

Once Julia was determined, she took swift action.

She booked a flight to a third-tier city.

She caught the plane that evening and took a taxi to a small county, booking a small motel near Glory Hospital.

Once dawn broke and the doctors at Glory Hospital began their shifts, she went to register.

Julia felt a bit shy at that moment and specifically requested the nurse, "Please, gynecological clinic—I'd like a female doctor, thank you."

The nurse was quite impatient, "Not everyone can demand a female doctor like you; currently, only Doctor Thompson still has appointments available. Do you want to register?"

Julia Land, "…Yes."

That nurse was quite fierce.

She went to the second-floor clinic to wait and just when her number was nearly called, Alexander Strong called her.

"Secretary Land, why are you not at work again today?"

"I've already submitted my resignation notice; I am currently on annual leave."

Julia Land added, "Secretary Strong, I'm currently traveling. I'll be back next week to hand over my duties. Thank you for your understanding."

She briskly ended the call.

Alexander Strong, "..."

He conveyed Julia Land's words to the busy man,

"BOSS, Secretary Land has gone traveling and will be back next week. She said she'll return next week to hand over her duties."

Noah Quarter raised his eyebrows, lifted the coffee on the desk, and took a sip, dissatisfied with the taste, "Who made today's coffee? Brew it again."

Alexander Strong took the coffee away and had the assistant secretary make a new cup of coffee.

After changing the coffee four times,

the BIG BOSS barely refrained from asking for another one.

Alexander secretly mused that the BOSS probably missed the coffee made by Julia Land.

"Book me a restaurant for dinner tonight; I have a date with Arabella. Also, order a bouquet of roses."

These words surprised Alexander.

Booking flowers too?

Could he have guessed wrong, and his BOSS's heart still belonged to his ex-girlfriend?

Alexander pulled himself together and accepted the task.

Before leaving, he looked at the working man, "Noah, Julia Land has always performed well; you... better not regret this later."

Alexander Strong and Noah Quarter were college classmates.

He was now speaking to Noah Quarter as a friend.

Noah Quarter looked up, his eyes cold, "Why should I regret it? I've always loved Arabella."

Why would he feel regret?

Noah Quarter sneered.

Julia Land was unaware of the conversation between Alexander Strong and Noah Quarter.

The nurse opened the door, "Number 30, Miss Land?"

Julia Land nodded and walked in.

As she entered, she heard another nurse coyly say, "Doctor Thompson, you're really naughty."

So coquettish, so endearing.

Julia Land's heart quivered.

She glanced at the doctor enjoying this attention, "..."

This time, she recognized him.

The man she had met in the elevator was a doctor?

Dressed in a white coat, the man was tall and sturdily built.

He stood at the wash basin, meticulously cleaning his hands.

His sleeves were rolled up to his elbows, revealing muscular arms tattooed with a black mamba.

The black mamba was entwined around a rose.

Julia Land, "....."

It was her first time seeing a doctor with such a terrifying tattoo on his arms.

James Thompson, wearing a mask, saw Julia Land and raised his eyebrows.

"Why come to such a humble place for treatment?"

He sat back down, leisurely wiping his hands, and asked casually, "What seems to be the problem?"

After waiting for a while, he noticed the patient was uncooperative.

James Thompson raised his eyebrows, "Throat pain? Can't speak?"

Julia Land, maintaining her composure, whispered softly, "I'm here to... have an abortion."

James Thompson, "..."

Julia Land blinked, "..."

It was unexpected.

"How many times have you been pregnant? Have you had any children before?"

"First time, never had children."

"When was your last menstrual period?"

"Seems like the end of April."

"Have you tested with a pregnancy test yourself?"

"Yes."

James Thompson asked about Julia Land's medical history before saying, "I will perform an ultrasound for you."

Julia Land nodded; already here, she didn't want to waste more time.

She followed the nurse behind a curtain.

Shoes off, she lay on the hospital bed, her clothes pulled up to her abdomen.

A man in gloves came in.

He applied gel to her abdomen, sending a cool sensation through her stomach.

He was performing an ultrasound.

Julia Land's skin was very white, smooth as jade cream, the cool gel moving on her belly as she breathed tensely.

James Thompson spoke softly, "Relax a bit."

After the ultrasound, he spoke slowly, "You have two options: surgical abortion or medication abortion."

Julia Land had researched this before, and spoke lightly, "I choose surgical abortion."

Her voice was cold, yet her fingers trembled slightly.

James Thompson noticed her trembling fingers and raised his eyebrows, "The surgery can be done tomorrow afternoon."

Julia Land took a few tissues to wipe off the gel on her stomach, "Okay."

Seeing her hands tremble even more, he uncommonly played the good guy, "If you don't want to abort, you could keep it."

"The father would be abusive; the child would suffer if kept."

Julia Land calmly arranged her clothes.

"...That's tragic."

The man stated the fact in a very flat tone.

Julia Land, "...Yes, it's tragic."

James Thompson pulled back the curtain and walked out.

Julia Land glanced at his broad-shouldered and long-legged silhouette, thinking about the face-swapping dream she had a few nights ago, "..."

Did she still have the potential to be a "bad girl"?

James Thompson was entering data into the computer while explaining the precautions for a surgical abortion in detail.

Julia Land listened attentively.

James Thompson stared at the two characters, Julia Land, pondering for a second.

Finally knowing her name, Julia Land.

He suddenly said leisurely, "I have a grand nephew, his wife's name is also 'Julia Land'."

Actually, whether called a grand nephew or a cousin makes no difference; Noah's mother and the Thompson family had a somewhat complicated relationship.

Julia Land, "?"

He just mentioned it casually; during a chat with some people from the second branch, he happened to hear them mention the name 'Julia Land'.

He wasn't close with people from the second branch, nor familiar with the grand nephew.

Julia Land looked at him, her beautiful eyes wide.

His surname is Thompson, and Noah's mother's surname is also Thompson.

Thompson family is in the Capital Metropolis, a circle Julia Land hadn't seen, despite being with Noah for several years and not meeting other Thompson family members.

Could it be such a coincidence?

She felt vaguely uneasy.

"Doctor Thompson must be joking; I'm not married yet."

Julia Land wrote unmarried on her medical records.

This wasn't the time to reveal anything.

His glance at her was inscrutable.

Could the child in her belly, calculating the days, possibly be his?

For some reason, Julia Land felt a chill down her spine from that one glance from Doctor Thompson.
