After that day, Jenny York didn’t come to see Lily Turner again, nor did she post any more articles about Lily and the mysterious investor online.
Additionally, major media outlets seemed to go silent overnight, with no media reporting on Lily Turner and the mysterious investor’s nighttime outings.
Life became calm like this, and Lily Turner devoted herself wholeheartedly to the filming of the movie.
A month later, the film wrapped up with the scene of the female lead’s pregnancy.
"Ugh..."
Lily Turner felt a wave of nausea in her chest, holding her mouth and retching.
"Lily! Haven’t you come out of character yet?"
Seeing Lily Turner holding her mouth and retching, not only did the male actor who was acting opposite her think she was still immersed in the scene, but everyone who saw this thought the same.
They thought she was still in the recent scene, but she now looked even more convincing than when she was acting.
Lily Turner didn’t explain anything about everyone’s misunderstanding, only held her hand over her mouth and gave a slight smile to everyone, then got into the car with Helena and Freya Yeager.
After getting in the car, Lily Turner took out her phone from her bag, flipped through the calendar in her phone, and when she saw the specific date today, her eyelid twitched sharply.
This month, her period was nearly twenty days late, and her period came very punctually every month. This was the first time she had encountered such a situation.
Could she have won the lottery?
She only had one encounter with that man; how could she be so unlucky to win the lottery?
Lily Turner couldn’t believe she had won, but all signs indicated that she was very unlucky to have won.
What should she do?
Whether going to the hospital or the pharmacy, the pregnancy would surely be exposed, and by then, the fact that she had slept with that man would no longer be a secret.
Lily Turner closed her eyes and leaned against the seat. Seeing the exhaustion on her face, both Helena and Freya Yeager thought she was resting with her eyes closed. They, as if pre-arranged, didn’t make a sound to disturb her and quietly turned their heads to look out of the window.
Throughout the journey, Lily Turner pretended to nap with her eyes closed, appearing very calm on the surface, but inside her heart, it was already in chaos.
"Lily!"
Hearing Helena call her, Lily Turner opened her eyes, and after seeing this, Helena pointed outside the car window and said, "We’re here!"
Following Helena’s direction, Lily Turner realized the car was already parked at her apartment entrance. She sat up straight, "Then I’ll head up first; you guys should go back and rest too."
While speaking, she opened the car door and got out. After getting out, she walked straight into the apartment without looking back.
Once she returned to her home on the eighteenth floor of the apartment, Lily Turner’s tense nerves finally relaxed completely. She laid freely on the sofa and stared blankly at the white ceiling.
After a long, long time, she suddenly sat up, her eyes fixed on the unopened TV in front of her for a while, and her thoughts slowly returned.
When her thoughts returned, Lily Turner took out her phone from her pocket, gripping the phone tightly with both hands, hesitated for a moment, and finally edited a message.
She took a deep breath, closed her eyes, shivered slightly, and mustered the courage to send the text message she had just edited to Easton Holmes.
"I’m pregnant, and you need to take responsibility."
