Chapter 238

Ten minutes later, Cole appeared in front of Zoe.

He was dressed in his pajamas and a pair of sandals,

His hair was disheveled because he had rushed over right after the phone call,

He wanted to throw a fit!

It was a strange phone call.

How could Zoe be so rude to him?

He was not the one who planned what happened at the hotel before. He was a victim, too!

However, when he saw Zoe’s eye reddened with tears, the rage inside of him instantly vanished.

“What‘s wrong, Doctor Sanford?” Cole asked, then cleared his throat and said, “My uncle didn’ t dump

you, did he?”

Zoe let out a bitter laugh, then held onto the tree next to her and got to her feet.

“I‘m pregnant, Cole Foster!” she hissed through gritted teeth as her mouth filled with the

strong taste of blood. “You‘re the father!”

The corners of Cole‘s lips twitched.

“No way... We only did it once...” he said in disbelief.

Before he could let out a sharp cry, Zoe picked up her bag and violently attacked him with it.

“You b*st*rd! You human sc* m! It‘s all your fault!” Zoe yelled as she continued to hit him.” What am I

supposed to do now?! Tell me! What should I do?!”

Cole covered his head with his arms and answered without hesitation, “Get rid of it! What else can you

do? My uncle will kill me if he finds out you‘re pregnant with my kid!”

Zoe’s tears rolled down her cheeks when she heard his answer.

“I want to get rid of it, too! The mere thought of carrying your child makes me sick! However, if I get an

abortion now, I might never be able to get pregnant again!”

Zoe felt all of the energy get sucked out of her body.

She slumped down, wrapped her arms around her head and broke into uncontrollable sobs.

Cole realized the severity of the situation.

Scanned with CamScanner

it was no wonder Zoe had thrown such a fit.

Things were more complicated if she could not get an abortion

Cole sat down next to Zoe and patted her back.

“I‘m sorry, Doctor Sanford! It‘s all my fault. You had too much to drink that night, but I was sober. I knew

that you were my uncle‘s girlfriend, but I gave into temptation and slept with you anyway! I’m the worst!”

he said, then slapped himself in the face.

Zoe lifted her gaze, and felt better after seeing Cole’s remorseful face.

“Let’s keep the baby for now,” Zoe said as she took a deep breath. “Your uncle doesn’t love me, so we

probably won’t stay together til the end. If I get an abortion now, when he finds another doctor that can

treat Shea, he will definitely break up with me without hesitation...”

She had always known that Elliot was secretly looking for another doctor who could treat Shea’ s illness.

“I see…” Cole said with a tremor in his voice. “You can’t let him find out that the baby’s mine. Otherwise,

he‘ll kill me for sure.”

“Are you that afraid of dying?!” Zoe snapped resentfully.

“I‘m still young! I‘m not done enjoying life!” Cole said as he helped Zoe to her feet. “Aren’t you afraid of

death? Although, even if my uncle finds out your baby isn‘t his, he still wouldn’t kill you. You‘ve saved

Shea once, after all.”

Cole‘s words made Zoe decide to take a gamble.

If the worst case scenario was breaking up with Elliot, then what was there to be afraid of?

“Go home. I‘ll go to the hospital for a checkup later. I‘ll let you know once I confirm the results,” Zoe said

as she withdrew her arm from Cole‘s grasp.

“You have to listen to everything I say from now on, or you‘re dead!” she threatened.

Cole did not have a choice.

The child Zoe was carrying was proof that he wronged Elliot.

Zoe had Cole wrapped around her finger.

On the other side of the city, a black Rolls-Roice pulled up at the entrance of Wedillia Psychiatric

Treatment Center.

Elliot and Shea emerged from the car.

Once they entered the center, the doctor greeted Elliot, then asked him to wait in the waiting

room.

“Don‘t be scared, Shea. I‘ll wait at the door for you,” Elliot said as he tried to let go of Shea’s hand.

However, Shea‘s grip tightened around his hand and refused to let go.
