“Of course not! It’s you who has an infectious disease!” Abby bellowed at Wilson in rage.

“I only asked a question. Why are you so angry? Is it because I guessed right?” Wilson snarled. Abby’s retort had caused his face to darken.
In anger, Abby balled her hands into fists and made to reply scathingly, but Rachel stopped her.
“Abby, don’t.”
“Miss Bennet…” Abby murmured, simmering down.
She couldn’t let him talk that way; after all, she had decided not to be as submissive as before because Rachel was pregnant. Abby was determined to protect her and the baby at all costs. Unfortunately, it seemed her flair-up from before had caused Rachel even more problems.
Acting on impulse, she had uttered an offensive retort to Wilson’s provocation, escalating the tension in the room. She Looked at Rachel with guilt-filled eyes and slowly lowered her head.
Rachel was surprised to see Abby react this way. During the confrontation with Ivy, she had acted timidly. This time, however, she was much bolder in the face of provocation, refuting an unfounded accusation fiercely.
She held Abby’s hand and gently pulled her to the side. Then, she looked at Wilson and coldly said, “Of course, I don’t have an infectious disease. But, one could ask the same question of you, Mr.
Patel, because no one knows if you have one or not. Besides, wouldn’t you agree that it’s rather strange for someone to accuse others of having infectious diseases out of the blue?”
“Y-you! Are you insinuating I have an infectious disease? “ Wilson demanded in outrage. Her sarcasm, which he had understood right away, had pissed him off.
“Mr. Patel, I only asked a question. Why are you so angry?” Rachel asked with a smile, hitting back at him with his own provocative words from earlier. Wilson’s face flushed red with rage.
A few moments later, he closed his eyes and sucked in a deep breath to calm his raging nerves. Then, after glaring at Rachel one more time, he signaled the nurses to start the examination immediately.
As this was a regular check-up, it didn’t take nurses long to complete it. After taking two test tubes of blood from Rachel, the nurses left with Wilson.
The situation had Abby a little worried. As she watched the three walk away, she whispered, “Miss Bennet, why did that man ask to examine you? Is he up to something?”
Rachel didn’t reply, though. Instead, she leaned back on the sofa and smiled at Abby.
“Miss Bennet, why are you smiling?” Abby asked, worried about her visible lack of concern.
“I’m just happy,” Rachel said with a smile. Then, she took a sip of water from the water bottle and tossed the gauze pad she used to stop bleeding into the trash can.

“I’m happy my little Abby has grown braver and smarter.”
Abby pouted; she didn’t want to be teased.
“Miss Bennet, are you making fun of me now?”
“No, I’m serious. I’m happy for you.” The look of worry on Abby’s face hadn’t faded completely, though. Rachel noticed this and said,
“You sensed something wrong, so how could I not, too? The Sullivan Group indeed organizes a physical examination for all its employees every year. It’s also quite normal to invite medical professionals to carry out these examinations. However, something’s off—these check-ups usually take place in November.”
“So, the check-up is two months earlier this year! There has to be something wrong. Do you know what they are up to?” Abby asked with a frown.
“I don’t know,” Rachel said, shaking her head sideways. She didn’t sound too concerned, though.
