Chapter 599: 599. Could it be that she is pregnant_1

This is a very famous Chinese restaurant in the city, occupying an entire floor of this shopping mall. The prices are not cheap, and the clientele comprises mostly well-heeled professionals and tycoons.

Elly Campbell rolled her eyes at her in annoyance and said, "Cut the crap, eat more. If you’re still thinking about dieting to become some skinny beauty, then don’t bother coming to me anymore."

"Yes, yes, yes, I’ll eat, I’ll eat, I assure you I’ll finish it in one go, without wasting a bite."

Helen Melendy raised both hands in surrender, picked up her chopsticks, and put a piece of what looked like very tender fish into her mouth. The next second, her face turned pale, she put down the chopsticks, covered her lips, and turned to rush into the restroom within the private room.

Elly Campbell was startled by this and quickly followed her in to see her bent over the sink, her expression one of pain as she retched.

"What on earth is the matter?"

Elly Campbell patted her back while looking at her with a stern face as she vomited until she turned pale.

After a bout of severe retching, Helen Melendy finally stopped, took a wet wipe to clean the corners of her mouth, and rinsed out her mouth. Then, she waved her hands at Elly Campbell.

"I’ve been on a diet for a month and haven’t eaten anything rich for a long time. Suddenly tasting the fishy smell, my stomach probably couldn’t handle it. It’s nothing."

She patted Elly Campbell’s shoulder in a consoling way and led her out of the restroom, "Don’t worry, I’m fine."

But how could Elly Campbell not be worried when she looked like that.

Especially since her complexion was all wrong. Even after dieting for a month, tasting something fishy shouldn’t make her vomit like that.

Her eyes darkened, and she said seriously, "You couldn’t be pregnant, could you?"

Helen Melendy was startled by her words, and her eyes became a bit frantic. As if to cover her panic, she lightly tapped Elly Campbell’s head with her chopsticks.

"What nonsense are you talking about? I don’t even have a man, am I self-reproducing?"

Faced with her vehement denial, Elly Campbell didn’t believe her. She thought of Harry Hall.

Ignoring Helen Melendy’s words, she just quietly stared at her, making Helen Melendy feel more guilty.

Helen Melendy tried to act casual and said, "Don’t look at me like that. I broke up with Harry Hall three years ago. Even if I were pregnant, it couldn’t be his."

With that, she took her chopsticks and stuffed some vegetables from the side into her mouth.

Elly Campbell had been through it all and could sense the situation between Helen Melendy and Harry Hall, although she hadn’t experienced it firsthand.

To say they broke up three years ago was just a formality.

Just last time at the Noble Marquis, when Harry Hall heard she was in trouble, he immediately left Adam Jones, who was vomiting blood from drinking, and ran off. With that "caring for a partner over common decency" behavior, did that look like a clean break?

Yet even so, she still thought that with her friend’s attitude towards Harry Hall—seeming like she couldn’t wait to kick him twice—she didn’t seem like someone who would... with him.

"Okay, Elly, stop looking at me like that. I really am not pregnant. It really is a problem from the dieting. I’ll find time to go to the hospital and have a look."

Seeing Helen Melendy with such an indifferent face, Elly Campbell felt she might be overthinking, but Helen Melendy’s complexion was indeed not good, so she emphasized:

"I’m going to stay in Boston for a while. You take the day off tomorrow, and I’ll go with you to the hospital for a check-up."

Helen Melendy’s chopsticks fell from her hand to the floor.

She crouched down to pick them up, and beckoned to a server to bring her a new pair, deliberately avoiding Elly Campbell’s remark, but Elly Campbell was persistent:

"Did you hear me? We’re going tomorrow!!"
