Chapter 61: Miscarriage?
Meredith’s emotions were spiraling out of control, how could she stay calm?
The father of her child, was actually in a romantic relationship with her best friend.
Grabbing Fiona’s hand, Meredith raised her voice, “Fiona, tell me, when did you become Mr. Sterling’s girlfriend? He’s the wealthy boyfriend you mentioned, right?”
Meredith found it hard to accept, unable to believe, but memories of the past provided clues.
Terrence Sterling’s car had a license plate with three eights, and when she and Justin followed Fiona, they headed towards Thornfield Gardens.
In Terrence Sterling’s house, she had seen someone resembling Fiona, but that day, she dared not suspect.
Afraid of accidentally revealing something, Fiona quickly said, “Meredith, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to keep this from you. Please go back for now, I’ll explain everything another day.”NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
Fiona just wanted to coax Meredith to leave, she had given Meredith abortion pills. How could Meredith be here at the club when she should be at home or in the hospital?
Fiona also had many doubts, Meredith had taken the pills, why was she acting like nothing had happened?
Could the pills be fake? Ineffective?
Their conversation left Rick bewildered, making it inconvenient for him to intervene.
Fiona’s response made Meredith’s heart grow cold, Fiona was truly Terrence Sterling’s girlfriend.
Seeing Meredith standing still, Fiona took her away, “Meredith, go back first, I’ll explain to you another day, okay? Terrence Sterling is drunk, I’m taking him back to Thornfield Gardens.”
Fiona purposely said this.
Staring at her, Meredith asked, “When did this happen? When did you start dating Terrence Sterling? Why did you keep it from me?”
She vividly remembered Fiona once asking if she would like Terrence Sterling, and even cautioned her not to. She clearly liked Terrence Sterling.
Fiona hesitated, “It’s been a long time, I didn’t mean to keep it from you. With someone like Terrence Sterling, I was worried it wouldn’t last, I have my pride, so I was embarrassed to tell you. I wanted to wait until things were stable, until we were married, to tell you.”
These reasons barely passed muster.
Upon hearing they intended to marry, Meredith was at a loss for words.
Fiona added, “Meredith, we’re good friends, you would wish me happiness, right? I found such a good boyfriend, shouldn’t you be happy for me?”
Meredith truly couldn’t bring herself to be happy, if she hadn’t had that one night with Terrence Sterling, she would have wholeheartedly supported and blessed Fiona marrying him.
Terrence Sterling’s girlfriend could be anyone, so why did it have to be Fiona?
“Meredith, I won’t tell you anymore now, I’ll go check on him, he’s in a bad mood from drinking, only I can take care of him.”
After deliberately saying these words, Fiona hurriedly walked towards the private room.
Meredith stood in place, watching Fiona’s receding figure, a whirlwind of emotions inside her.
Her best friend had found such good fortune in love, she should be happy for her.
Soon after, she saw Fiona helping Terrence Sterling out of the private room, Rick also rushed forward to assist and take Terrence Sterling back.
Meredith stumbled out of the club in a daze, lost and wandering in the streets.
A gust of cold wind hit her, making her shiver.
Not far into her walk, Meredith felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen, her thighs aching too.
Resting on a flowerbed by the roadside, she suddenly felt a rush of heat below, causing her to panic.
Could it be… bleeding?
Seeing a public restroom on the side, Meredith rushed in to check, and upon seeing the red stain on her underwear, she panicked, afraid.
Her lower abdomen still ached, was this a sign of miscarriage?
Meredith hurriedly hailed a cab by the roadside, it was difficult to get a cab at this time.
Meredith feared delay could harm the baby in her belly.
Just then, a flashy sports car pulled up next to her, “Miss Florrick, why are you taking so long? Terry had the woman at Thornfield Gardens take away, why do you look so terrible, are you sick?”
“Mr. Fieldmouse, please take me to the hospital, quickly,” Meredith said in pain, “my stomach hurts, I’m bleeding.”
Upon hearing she was bleeding, Harvey Fieldmouse stopped joking around, opened the car door, “Hurry, get in.”
