However, her pregnancy would definitely be exposed if she were to undergo a complete medical
checkup. As Margaret had not figured out how to tell Christopher the truth, she needed to come up with a
plan to get herself out of the sticky situation.’ “I see. Since I’m heading out soon, I’ll go to the hospital
once I’ve attended to my matters, and I’ll give you the report once it’s ready. It’s inconvenient for you to
follow me around while I carry out my errands, anyway. Would this be okay for you?”
When she noticed Noah’s hesitation, she added, “Otherwise, you won’t be able to report back to him.
Anyhow, you will have the medical report. It’ll lead to the same result.”
Finally, he nodded. “All right, then. Please contact me once the medical report is ready, and I’ll come and
collect it.”
Margaret nodded. After having her breakfast, she left the house.
In truth, she was not planning to go out that day. Unexpectedly, Christopher ordered Noah to bring her for
a medical checkup. She wanted to contact Jodie and ask for her help, but the latter did not answer the
phone.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLeft with no choice, Margaret could only head to the hospital by herself.
Upon arriving at the hospital, she consulted the doctor regarding details for the medical checkup and
avoided examinations that were not suitable for pregnant women. When she received the medical report,
she repeatedly checked the results before handing it over to Noah and said, “The doctor told me that I’m
just a bit anemic, that’s all.”
However, Noah was quite skeptical about her remarks. He was aware that Margaret’s “gastric pain” had
reached the point of chronic nausea. How is it possible that she’s only suffering from anemia? In the end,
he had another person review the medical report. Only when he ascertained there was nothing wrong
with it did he give it to Christopher
Looking at the stack of papers on the table, Christopher did not seem the least bit annoyed. He then
scrutinized each test result carefully and meticulously.
Noah stood aside and pointed out, “I’ve had someone review the medical report, and they confirmed that
her anemic symptoms were slightly severe. Also, some tests were not carried out, but it shouldn’t be a
huge problem.”
Christopher nodded, but his brows soon puckered in a frown. How can she be severely anemic again
when she has been taking nourishing foods for quite some time now? He then called the Lewis
residence and instructed Fredrick, who answered the call, “Tell the people in the kitchen to stock up on
more iron-rich ingredients.”
Once he received Fredrick’s affirmative response, Christopher turned his attention to the pile of work
documents on his table again.
Noah then said in a low voice, “I’ll take my leave now.”
Christopher nodded. All of a sudden, there was a knock on his office door. Noah went to open the door
and frowned when he saw it was Megan standing outside the room. Even so, he left without saying
anything.
Megan click-clacked into the office in her high heels. At that sound, Christopher furrowed his eyebrows
and asked, “What are you doing here?”
Putting on an aggrieved expression, she said, “I know you’re busy these days, so I didn’t dare to bother
you. But I really missed you! I came to visit you since I happened to pass by your office. I’m not going to

bother you too much. Carry on with your work; I’ll leave in a bit.
He glanced at her indifferently and replied, “If you have something to tell me, just say it now.”
Since he had seen through her true intention, she did not beat around the bush. “Christopher, have you
considered the partnership proposal we discussed with you at your house last time?”
“I’ve looked into it, and the current state of your company is not in my consideration at the moment,” he
said impassively.
Megan’s face turned slightly pale. She assumed he was likely to accept their proposal since he had
allowed her and Hannah to discuss the collaboration at his home. Never did she expect things to turn out
that way. “Christopher, even though my family isn’t as powerful as yours, we’re still quite well-known in
the industry. Perhaps you could try to form a partnership with us first, just for my sake.”
Nevertheless, Christopher’s stance was firm. “I’ve already made myself very clear. Furthermore, I hope
you can be professional. If the Jenkins family is a viable business partner, I will consider it, regardless of
anyone’s sake. You should leave first as I’m quite busy right now.”
Even though Megan was unwilling to give up, she dared not say anything else.
Suddenly, her gaze fell upon the medical report at the corner of the table. As soon as she noticed
Margaret’s name on it, she clenched her teeth tightly. Despite her anger, she affected a gentle
expression and replied, “In that case… I’ll take my leave then. Take care, and don’t overwork yourself.”
