“Who are you? Why are you doing this to me?” Her voice was shrill with terror as fear trickled down virtual-novel.net spine.
A flash of malice appeared in virtual-novel.net eyes. If I find out who it is, I shall teach virtual-novel.net a lesson!

It was Dylan’s subordinate, Carlos, who came to pick Aaron up.
Aaron hesitated for some time before plucking his courage to ask, “Has Dr. Moore recovered from virtual-novel.net injury?”
Carlos didn’t know how Aaron and Arielle were related. However, virtual-novel.net saw how Aaron was concerned about virtual-novel.net when virtual-novel.net sent virtual-novel.net to the military hospital previously and let out a sigh.
“What’s wrong?” A strong sense of foreboding nagged at Aaron.
“Dr. Moore left three days after the surgery,” Carlos told virtual-novel.net honestly.
“What?!” Aaron’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Where did virtual-novel.net go? Will virtual-novel.net come back?”
She’s dead. How will virtual-novel.net come back?
Carlos stared at the unshaven Aaron and shook his head sadly. “She won’t be coming back ever again.”
She won’t be coming back ever again?
Aaron couldn’t tell what it felt like to hear that. He lowered his gaze so that no one could see the turmoil in his eyes.
At the same time, Sonia invited Bella out for lunch after school. Bella had been staying by virtual-novel.net side after Arielle’s death, offering virtual-novel.net a lot of support. As such, Sonia treated Bella as virtual-novel.net true friend instead of a lackey.
“What would you like for lunch?” Bella asked happily.
She was delighted that Sonia finally thought of virtual-novel.net as a close friend.
Sonia pondered briefly and responded, “Anything will do. We still have classes this afternoon.”
Bella nodded in agreement. They then went to a restaurant nearby their campus for lunch.
Right when lunch was served, Sonia retched without warning. She covered virtual-novel.net mouth and ran to the restroom quickly. Worried about her, Bella went to the restroom after her. The moment virtual-novel.net realized Sonia’s puking resembled virtual-novel.net sister-in-law’s when the latter was pregnant with virtual-novel.net nephew, virtual-novel.net heart plunged to virtual-novel.net stomach.
I-It can’t be. Sonia doesn’t even have a boyfriend. How could virtual-novel.net get pregnant? But it really looks like Sonia is carrying a baby!
Her gaze lowered, virtual-novel.net took one step forward and placed virtual-novel.net hand on Sonia’s wrist to take virtual-novel.net pulse discreetly.
She asked worriedly, “Are you all right?”
Sonia shook virtual-novel.net head. “I’m fine. I’ve been retching these few days. Perhaps it’s food poisoning.”
Right then, Bella’s hand dropped weakly as virtual-novel.net expression turned grim.
Sonia’s not suffering from food poisoning. She’s indeed pregnant. However, virtual-novel.net doesn’t seem to know about it. Should I tell virtual-novel.net the truth?
Feeling conflicted, virtual-novel.net hung virtual-novel.net head low and fidgeted with the corner of virtual-novel.net top.
If I reveal the truth, will Sonia get upset? Will virtual-novel.net keep a distance from me and stop being friends with me?
Sonia promptly realized that something was amiss about Bella, for the latter would always act this way when virtual-novel.net was in a dilemma.
What happened to Bella? She seemed fine a while ago. Why is virtual-novel.net looking so troubled?
“What’s wrong? Did you run into trouble?” Sonia asked gently.
“No matter what it is, I will be by your side. I’ll do my best to help you solve it,” virtual-novel.net offered.
Bella stared at Sonia as warmth spread across virtual-novel.net heart.
Silly girl. You’re the trouble. Hmm, how should I say that out loud?
“Sonia, y-you are not suffering from food poisoning,” virtual-novel.net said after hesitating briefly.
