Remorse After Breaking Up

Natalie shook her head once again. "I've had people search every antique shop in Ravenview City, but we haven't found anything."

Sebastian frowned. Based on his months-long investigation, both amulets had ended up in Ravenview City.

Since they were antiques, the likelihood of them appearing in antique shops was high.

However, the fact that they hadn't been found was troubling. It was possible they had been hidden away, making the search even more challenging.

And he was even more concerned that the amulets might no longer be in Ravenview City, which would be worse.

…

Meanwhile, Lillian was at the hospital for prenatal check-ups under her mother's persuasion.

"What? I'm not pregnant?"

When Lillian heard the doctor say she wasn't pregnant, she was dumbfounded.

"No, that's impossible. That jerk has slept with me twice already. You must be mistaken," Lillian said, shaking her head incredulously.

"I can guarantee you, there's no room for error in my examination. But if you're skeptical, feel free to seek a second opinion elsewhere. However, I stand by my assessment's reliability," the doctor said with unwavering confidence.

"But I've taken a pregnancy test before," Lillian protested, perplexed.

"Pregnancy tests can be inaccurate. Moreover, my recent gynecological examination confirms that you're still a virgin. What led you to believe you were pregnant?" the doctor inquired.

"Doctor, are you certain she's still a virgin?" Evelyn interjected anxiously.

"I am certain," the doctor affirmed.

Evelyn felt a surge of relief. She had initially suspected that Lillian had been deceiving her, but seeing Lillian's bewildered expression made her question that assumption.

"Lillian, what's going on?" Evelyn asked.

"I don't know," Lillian murmured as she walked out of the hospital, still bewildered.

Despite sleeping with Sebastian twice, she couldn't wrap her head around the fact that she was still technically a virgin.

Had he not touched her at all?

During the first encounter, she was intoxicated. Alongside her menstrual cycle, she couldn't recall what had happened.

Back then, she didn't feel any pain, which was odd considering her innocence was gone. Now, she finally understood what happened that day.

Sebastian hadn't touched her—at least, not in the sense of taking her virginity.

As for the second time, it was even simpler to comprehend. Sebastian had given her a glass of water, and after drinking it, she had drifted off to sleep.

He had ample opportunity to take advantage of her. So, why didn't he?

Did he have some kind of disability that prevented him from doing so? It was the only explanation she could come up with to make sense of it all.

Meanwhile, Evelyn was ecstatic. After leaving the hospital, she sent Lillian home on her own and headed to the Harris residence to share the good news with Lynette. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Lynette was skeptical, but Evelyn had come prepared. Not only did she produce the test results, but she also provided Lynette with the doctor's contact information, urging her to verify the information herself.

Despite her doubts, Lynette visited the hospital accompanied by the hospital director, ensuring that the doctor wouldn't dare to lie to her.

Even then, the doctor confidently assured her that the test results were authentic. Finally, this put Lynette's suspicions to rest.
