Chapter 511 Pregnancy Test
As a woman, the most dreadful thought, startling even herself, crossed her mind. Could it be…? Her
face turned pale in an instant. Her heartbeat skyrocketed to its peak, and leaning on the table, her hand
couldn’t bear the strength anymore.
The feeling of her stomach churning was the biggest threat to her. She subconsciously slipped her
hand to her lower abdomen, touched it lightly, and quickly removed it as if she had been electrocuted.
Please don’t let it be what she was thinking, please…
She didn’t take a single bite of the meal. The untouched food was taken away, and instead of feeling
hungry, she felt a sense of relief. Especially when the aroma of the food in the room dissipated, that
feeling of suffocation, as if her throat was being constricted, finally eased a bit.
After entering the police station, Evelyn didn’t contact her family anymore. Huston had sent someone to
comfort Lucy and Ben. When Grace learned the news, she returned to the country. Although they
hadn’t seen each other, Evelyn was certain she hadn’t left Jewel City.

contact her from the beginning to the end, afraid that she would worry too much and also afraid of
implicating her.
And today, she was afraid that she would have to break this thought.
After thinking about it for a while, Evelyn couldn’t feel relieved at all. She hesitated for nearly an hour
before dialing the number. Perhaps because it was an unknown number displayed, Grace didn’t
answer quickly.
“Hello?”
Hearing this familiar voice, Evelyn’s eyes immediately turned red and choked with sobs. “Grace, it’s
me.”
Grace, who was sitting on the sofa, bounced up when she heard her voice. “Evelyn?”
Before Evelyn could answer, she hurriedly asked, “Is it Evelyn?”
“It’s me.” Evelyn walked to the farthest place from the door and said in a low voice, “Grace, I have an
urgent matter, and I need your help. I’ll get straight to the point because time is limited. I need a
pregnancy test stick, the simple kind.”
Grace was still immersed in the joy of her phone call. When she heard this, her whole body seemed to
petrify. It took her a long time to find her voice. “Pregnant testing stick? What do you want this for?
Don’t tell me…”
She paused, raised her hand to cover her mouth, and was so surprised that she couldn’t speak.
“I don’t know.” Evelyn’s breathing was trembling. “I hope not.”
“Don’t worry for now. I’ll bring it to you this afternoon. What if it’s not what you think? Don’t jump to
conclusions.” At this point, it was the best comfort she could offer.
Evelyn glanced in the direction of the door. “I’m using the police station’s phone. I can’t talk too much.
Let’s meet and talk in person.”
“Okay.”
At three o’clock in the afternoon, Grace arrived at the police station with a pregnancy test paper. She
couldn’t bring electronic devices that could be discovered, so she had to bring this.

When she went through the security check, she felt anxious, but fortunately, she passed without any
issues.
Grace followed the police officer all the way to the interrogation room, twisting and turning until they
reached the iron door. When she pushed the door open and saw the frail woman sitting inside, tears
welled up in her eyes immediately.
Evelyn had become much thinner after not seeing each other for a while. She might have already
looked emaciated if it weren’t for her small frame. Her once fair skin had become translucent, revealing
the red veins underneath. Her eyes were swollen, indicating that she had been crying for a long time.
Grace stood at the door, her feet feeling as heavy as lead, unable to take a single step forward. Just
before the tears fell, she turned her back, not knowing why. Perhaps it was because she didn’t want
Evelyn to feel the same sadness.
Looking at her trembling shoulders, Evelyn stepped forward and hugged her from behind. She
comforted her softly, “Grace, I’m fine.”
However, she didn’t expect that those words would make Grace cry even harder, her expression a mix
of worry and anger. “Are you fine? Look at yourself, what have you done to yourself…”
