Chapter 2

The nightmares of my previous life were vivid in my mind.

I took a deep breath and cleared my mind.

"Oh no, it is a heart disease! Your child has a heart disease..."

I sighed and looked at the report card repeatedly.

"What? Is it heart disease... difficult to be treated?" Kate leaned forward with her face full of worry.

"Yes...but... "

I changed the subject and paused.

"Come on, hurry up. Oh, I'm so anxious." She patted her thigh and looked at me angrily.

"Don't be angry, Kate. Let Natalya finish her words." John, Kate's husband, pulled Kate and comforted her.

I coughed lightly, saying, "It can be treated, but I can't guarantee that it will be cured."

"How can a doctor who can't cure patients work here for seven or eight years?"

Kate glanced at me with some disdain.

Even though I held overwhelming hatred for her, I didn't show my emotion at that moment.

"Then...should I keep this child?" She bit her lip, seeming a bit conflicted. Then she turned to look at John and then at me, acting as if waiting for my decision.

"What a joke. I exerted great efforts to save this child for her in my previous life, and she killed me."

"I won't care about her for the rest of my current life."

"I will let go and let her destiny call the shots."

"Kate, the child is yours, so it's up to you to decide."

I smiled and tapped a pen in my hands.

I calmly took a sip of coffee.

"You're a doctor. Why are you like this when we ask for your opinion? I will go back and talk to my Libby about it. She spoiled you so much."

"Whether I advise her to keep the baby or not, she will shirk responsibility on me. She just wants to shift the blame onto me."

I valued family affection and never argued with her. Now it came to this point, I no longer cared about family affection. After all, I didn't want to die again.

Chapter 3

"We are responsible for what we say. Whether to keep the baby or not is up to you."

My words made her even more embarrassed.

"John... What if this child indeed has a heart disease, and we can't cure it?"

"No, it won't be like that. With the advanced technology nowadays, all diseases can be cured."

"Is that so... But what if? I mean, what if it can't be cured?"

"I got it now. She didn't want to keep this child from the beginning. I ended up causing harm to her by keeping the child for her."

"Then... should we not keep it?"

"But this child doesn't come easily, you know."

She complained in John's arms.

John seemed a little impatient, frowning and asking, "So what do you want to do?"

"I... I don't know. I'm asking for your opinion, okay?" She blushed, seemingly afraid to confront John.

John waved his hand casually and got up to answer a call, saying, "Do whatever you want."

"John! You... " She looked very embarrassed after being humiliated by him.

I glanced at her and continued to smile.

"Kate, go back first if you don't have anything else. You have taken up the consultation time of other patients. You can't cut in line because of your relationship with me."

"Who... who said I cut in line? I am your aunt. It's normal for me to come to you for a pregnancy check-up. Why do you separate public and private matters like this?"

She snorted and walked away with her bag.

Chapter 4

I instructed everyone in the department.

"If Kate is here again in the future, don't assign her to my department."

"I can't afford such a patient, who is difficult to deal with."

"Dr. Sue, but for this disease... The child can be kept. She is your aunt, right? Can't you fight for her a bit? I don't think she wants to give it up."

"Fight for what? Since she doesn't want it, we don't need to help her. We should respect others' fate, let go of the desire to help others, and enjoy an immoral life."

"Sure enough, once I care about other people's business, I feel much more relaxed."

On the way home, I deliberately bought an extra piece of cake to reward myself for my hard work.

I didn't expect to see Kate crying in my mother's arms as soon as I opened the door.

"Libby, your daughter's words are too harsh. I asked her whether I should keep the child or not, but she couldn't give me a definite answer. If it's not possible... can't she help me check whether it's a boy or a girl?"

She muttered.

But I found clues from it.

"It turns out that she wants to know whether the child in her belly a boy or a girl is."

"No wonder her face was so pale when the child was born."

"Natalya, haven't you always been good to your aunt? Just tell her whether she should keep the child in her belly or not. Then she can feel at ease."

I sighed, saying, "Mom, I can't guarantee that. Although I am a doctor, my medical skills are not proficient. I have studied so much that it's all in vain. I can't help Kate. She'd better go to a better hospital for a check-up."

"No need, I have a prescription here. As long as I drink it, the baby will be healthy and strong, and it is guaranteed to be a boy."

Kate's mother-in-law, Linda, brought out a pot of dark and smelly stuff from the kitchen, which carried a strong and pungent smell.
