Chapter 214 Was Cherise Pregnant?
Besides, it was just her period, nothing major. But why did it hurt so much this time? She felt a cold sweat break out, and the pain gradually drained her strength.
Damien held her hand. “Listen to me. Don’t push yourself.”
“It’s not much farther,” she said, determination in her voice despite her eyes moistened with
sweat.
Finally, at the very last second, Cherise collapsed at the finishing line before reaching the physical assessment standard time.
There were small, scattered red spots on her bottoms. Damien’s eyes darkened, and he quickly lifted her. “Where’s the school clinic?”
Lucy rushed over, assessed the situation, and tremblingly dialed 120 on her phone. “The school clinic won’t cut it! What if it’s not her period but a miscarriage?”
The word ‘miscarriage’ hit like a thunderclap, momentarily freezing Damien.
Lucy explained, “Cherry mentioned earlier that her period was late. I suggested she buy a pregnancy test, but she didn’t take it seriously, saying it might not be accurate. Given the situation. now, if it’s indeed a miscarriage…”
Before Cherise could finish her sentence, Damien had already swept her into his arms and bolted out of the gym.
Curious female students soon congregated. “Cherise had a miscarriage? Does she even have a boyfriend? And she had a miscarriage?”
“A top student with an impeccable reputation, getting pregnant before marriage and suffering a miscarriage? This is major news!”
Lucy had no time for idle chatter with these girls. She set down her belongings and swiftly trailed after Damien.
Damien’s embrace was warm and reassuring.
Despite her weakness, with her eyes closed, Cherise could feel the frequency of his heartbeat in his chest while he ran. There was the sound of the wind and his slightly heavier breathing in her
cars.
Even with her eyes closed, she sensed his swift pace. She creased her brow and softly said, “Slow
down.”
