"Don't touch me... Stephanie shouted as she struggled to free herself Her body twisted, the wound on her arm now bleeding more profusely.

The excessive blood loss drained her face of color, and everyone was hurling vicious insults, siding with Claire and her daughter "I didn't hit that little girl! She choked back tears, feeling wronged.

It felt as if the whole world had turned against her, leaving her lonely and helpless, yet she refused to give in, pushing the man behind her.

"Go away!" Stephanie cried out desperately, struggling with all her might..

But suddenly, everything went dark before her eyes, and her body went limp....

"Ms. Reed, are you alright?" A nurse stood by her bedside, offering a warm smile as she noticed Stephanie awaken

Stephanie wiped the cold sweat from her brow and took a deep breath looking at the nurse. "What... What happened to me."

Her body still felt weak, her memories a blur. She remembered arguing with Claire at Wellington Villa, InXvilla, and then Kevin pushed her, causing her to bleed And there was a man.....

The nurse changed the WV with gentle care, her voice soft and respectful. "Ms. Reed, you're pregnant." "What?" Stephanie froze, thinking she had misheard.

"Congratulations, Ms. Reed," the nurse smiled. "You're six weeks pregnant." However, there was no sign of joy on Stephanie's face. Instead, she looked deeply in shock, a flicker of fear in her eyes.

"I'm pregnant?"

Stephanie instinctively touched her flat belly, still in disbelief Sheo m scrambled up from the hospital bed, En agitated. "How could be pregnant?” "How could this happen..." Her mind went totally blank at that moment.
