Arthur was unconscious for a while, and when he woke up, he searched for Su Chen desperately, but... he couldn't find her anywhere.
They all say she was killed by Benjamin and turned to ashes, which is why they can't find her.
But Arthur firmly believed that he would see her again someday!
One month later.
"Ugh..." Aither held the trash can and couldn't stop vomiting.
Su Chen patted her back from behind and gave her some hot water to drink.
"What's wrong? Did you eat something bad?" Su Chen asked worriedly. "The food I made... is it really that bad?"
Is it so bad that it makes you feel acid reflux?
[Tsk tsk tsk, did you make them throw up? Look at the food you made, is it even cooked? They'd probably get stomach problems from eating your food for a month.] The system couldn't help but complain.
Su Chen pouted, "What's wrong? My cooking is already pretty good. Aither's cooking is even worse; all her dishes look like they were just dug out of a mine, all black and shiny. At least I can tell the ingredients!"
Ethel vomited so badly that she felt like she was bringing up bile.
"Let's go to the hospital. You can't keep vomiting like this," Su Chen said, pulling Ether along. Ether carried the bucket, and the two of them hailed a carriage to the hospital.
"Doctor... what's wrong with her?" Su Chen noticed the doctor's complicated expression and sensed it was something serious, so she sent Aether away and secretly asked the doctor.
"Your friend is pregnant," the doctor said with a complicated expression.
Pregnant?! Whose child is this? Is it the male lead's?
Su Chen was filled with questions, and even suspected that a green light had appeared in Benjamin's brain.
"But... there's no fetal heartbeat, it's a stillbirth." The doctor's tone was extremely heavy.
"Stillborn?" Su Chen was taken aback.
The doctor nodded and sighed, "Arrange the surgery."
"Wait a minute, let me discuss it with her." Su Chen's feelings were mixed.
"Surgery is still necessary; otherwise, it won't be good for the pregnant woman's health," the doctor advised.
"knew."
...
"You're pregnant." Su Chen decided to tell her the good news first.
"Ah?" Aither was startled, tears welled up in her eyes, and her hands trembled as she touched her stomach.
Su Chen asked seriously, "When did this happen?"
“It was…” Ethel’s face flushed red, “the day before we ran away.”
"The Earl's?" Su Chen's mouth dropped open.
Ethel nodded shyly.
"Benjamin Polidori?" Su Chen repeated the male protagonist's full name to maintain information symmetry.
Ethel said softly, "Mm."
Su Chen sighed. It seemed the male lead hadn't been cheated on.
But this child has no heartbeat! Su Chen just hopes the male lead won't blame her for this.
"What's wrong?" Ethel placed her hand on her forehead. "Oh, it's so cold."
"Cool?" Su Chen was taken aback.
By the way, she's now a vampire and her body is ice-cold because her heart has stopped beating, unless she's in a state of emotional agitation.
Huh? Heart stopped beating?
"You're probably a vampire, no doubt about it." Su Chen poked her belly.
“What? It could also be a person!” Ethel said, looking at the belly.
Su Chen shook her head. "The doctor just told me the baby had no heartbeat, and I thought it was stillborn. But... vampires don't have heartbeats, and Benjamin did too. So, your child is a born vampire!"
"Huh?" Ethel said with a bitter face, "I was thinking that the baby would be soft and warm, and I could hold him to keep my hands warm."
