Chapter 979: Please Advise Me, Second Miss
The doctor is now paying special attention to her."I wanted to ask about my sister’s situation—if she really intends to abort the child, will it cause her any harm?"
Doctor Chapman couldn’t quite understand what Cherry Lewis, the second Miss of the Lewis Family, meant.
As the Lewis Family’s household doctor, no one knew better than him how terrible the relationship was between the two Misses of the Lewis Family behind the scenes. Cherry beating her younger sister was a common occurrence; Zoe had suffered countless injuries in the past, and most of those injuries were treated by him.
He didn’t believe Zoe cared for her sister as she pretended to unless she were a fool.
Doctor Chapman spoke carefully: "There is definitely harm, as abortion is inherently damaging to the body. It’s not something that can be avoided by the doctor’s skill, so later on, she must rest well, just like postpartum care, without neglect, or else the aftereffects could be quite serious."
Zoe blinked: "Then... what’s the most severe consequence?"
"The most severe consequence is infertility in the future."
"Oh, that is quite serious, but I feel there could be something worse, maybe even losing her life, don’t you think?"
Now with advanced technology, it’s rare to lose one’s life due to induced abortion, but there have been precedents.
Doctor Chapman was even more puzzled—what exactly was Zoe trying to say?
"Doctor Chapman, do you think you know many secrets? If you add the enormous secret of helping my sister abort, your likelihood of being silenced is already at eighty percent."
Doctor Chapman’s heart trembled.
He knew it! The Lewis Family was a terrifying place that devours without leaving bones behind!
However, he hadn’t expected that the usually somewhat transparent and timid second Miss would boldly discuss such unspeakable topics with him today.
He subtly lowered his head to Zoe, presenting himself in an extremely humble manner: "Please advise me, Miss. What should I do?"
"You keep my sister’s baby, and I keep you alive, how about that? This would mean I’ve saved two lives—it’s a great deed."
"I can ensure the eldest Miss’s baby is kept, but Miss Zoe..."
Doctor Chapman didn’t continue, but Zoe knew he was doubting her capability, afraid she couldn’t protect him.
That’s quite normal; Doctor Chapman was originally a very cautious and smart person—otherwise, he wouldn’t have survived till now and ended up like several other household doctors, becoming a wandering spirit.
"Consider, Doctor Chapman, if my sister aborts the baby, your value would be gone. To prevent you from leaking secrets, you can imagine your fate."
Zoe had already thoroughly considered how to persuade Doctor Chapman last night, so today, her words flowed particularly smoothly and precisely.
"But if my sister wants to keep the baby, as the most trusted doctor of our family, she won’t be able to do without your care during her pregnancy. Even when the baby is born, you remain valuable, as the baby and the mother still need your expertise. My grandmother won’t find another doctor, firstly because she won’t be at ease, and secondly, because it adds an additional person who knows our family secrets, doubling the risk."
After hearing this, Doctor Chapman was thrilled!
He actually felt that it was more beneficial for Cherry to have the baby, but both the old lady and Cherry were very adamant about the abortion, leaving him powerless to change that!
"Doctor Chapman, you just need to slightly exaggerate the risk, like saying there’s a life-threatening danger, infertility, and other aftereffects. You’re the doctor—you understand better than I do."
