Chapter 187 The morning I thought I'd have to wait another month to set my trap, I got a call from the clinic askingto cin for a check-up to confirm if I was pregnant, as there were sindications from yesterday's result.
I dragged myself out of bed, and Max was gone once again.

What mattered was he believed inand didn't think I was crazy enough to be sent to a mental hospital. While leaving, I saw Richard waiting at the door. "Claire." I instinctively stepped back, but he looked just as worried as he did the day before. "Claire, we need to see a doctor. I'm worried about what might happen if you keep going like this." I stepped back. "Richard, I thought you were the only one in this world who believed in me." "Claire." He was probably afraid that my condition was so severe that it could be fatal.
"Never mind. I'm fine. I'll take care of myself and go to the hospital if there's any issue." I didn't want to fall out with Richard, especially since he died forin my past life! I couldn't hate him. Richard asked, "Claire, are you sure you are fine?" I spun around. "I'm fine. I'm off to school now." I headed to the hospital first to dodge any further questions and his insistence on driving me.
But I underestimated Richard. He seemed obsessed, having been busy with work until recently. But he suddenly started keeping a close eye on me.
"Richard, why the hell are you following me?" I hid in the stairwell, waiting for him to exit the elevator, and stepped out to block his path.
He looked surprised. "Did you know I was tracking you?" I rolled my eyes. "Your tracking skills are pretty obvious. Next time, maybe switch cars." So, I walked ahead. Since Richard didn't believe I was pregnant, I would have the doctor check again to confirm. Richard was confused. "Claire, why are we at the OB-GYN?" I said without looking back, "Because the doctor calledthis morning for a follow-up to be sure. I told you I would have a baby." As I walked in, Richard followed. "Claire, you're not well." I rolled my eyes at him. Then, I told the doctor about the call I received for a recheck. The doctor looked confused and asked the nurse, "Who called Ms. Floyd for a cho today? There's no record of it." While I was still puzzled, Richard pulledaside. "Claire, this is a serious case of hysteria. You need a comprehensive psychological evaluation." "Richard, I did get a call. Look." I showed him my phone. The number was the hospital's landline, but the call cat 7:30 AM, seemingly before work hours.
"So, someone deliberately lured you here?" Richard realized, and I breathed a sigh of relief that he didn't insist on takingto a psychologist or a mental hospital.

"Someone wants to confirm if I'm m pregnant. Suddenly I felt excited, pulling Richard back toward the OB-GYN. "Doctor, could you please givea check-up?"
The doctor shook his head. "I looked at your file, and you weren' 'Epregnant е yesterday. How could you be today?" I said, "It's okay. Just issue one. If it's negative, so be it. If positive, even better."
But the doctor looked at Richard and said, "Sir, your wife is persistentm Perhaps your wife is can talk to her."
