Just then, Stella stepped out of the consulting room, drawing everyone's attention.
At the smoment, Matthew’s phone rang-it was the doctor who had examined Stella a few days ago.
Matthew listened intently as the doctor on the other end of the call hurriedly tried to explain the situation.
“I'm very sorry, Mr.
Clark.
There was an error in the earlier pregnancy test report.
Mrs.
Clark is not pregnant.
| apologize... | had been on duty all night before that morning, and | mistakenly reported a cyst as a
pregnancy...”
The doctor's voice grew increasingly anxious, trailing off as she awaited Matthew's response.
After a pause filled with uneasy silence, she added, “I'm terribly sorry, Mr.
Clark.

Please, | hope you won't hold this against me.
| swear...”
But before the doctor could finish her plea, Matthew abruptly ended the call, his face clouding over with a mix of
anger and disappointment.
Although Matthew's phone wasn’t loud, the doctor's apologetic words still echoed through the corridor, revealing
the truth about the mistaken pregnancy.
The disappointment was palpable among everyone gathered, and Stella, sensing the shift, felt a pang of sadness
herself and lowered her head.
She knew how much everyone had been looking forward to the baby.
Matthew approached and gently placed his arm around her shoulders.
In a soft, reassuring voice, he asked, “Do you feel any pain?”
Stella shook her head, her voice a whisper.
“I'm sorry...” She couldn't help but feel responsible for the emotional rollercoaster, even though it was beyond
her control.
Matthew tightened his grip on her hand, his response firm and gentle.
“It’s not your fault.
You don’t need to apologize.

Bella chimed in, attempting to lighten the mood, “Fortunately, she’s not pregnant.
Otherwise, the fall could have been much more serious.
In the end, it would still be Stella who suffered.
Hearing this, the others gradually moved past their initial shock and began to offer words of comfort to Stella.
Alissa chimed in supportively, “Your mother is right.
The most important thing is that you’re okay.
Lucia and Waldo, though visibly disappointed by the news, shifted their focus to comforting Stella.
“You have to be patient about having a baby.
It’s all in fate’s hands.

Just take it easy; as long as you're fine, that’s what matters,” Lucia said.
Stella felt a warm surge of gratitude as everyone rallied around her, showing their concern and affection.
Meanwhile, Lindsay simmered with jealousy.
She had made Joann bump into Stella, hoping it would lead to a miscarriage, only to discover Stella wasn’t
pregnant after all.
Yet, Stella was still receiving everyone's sympathy and attention.
As the group consoled Stella, Joann saw an opportunity to slip away, fearing Matthew might remember the
earlier incident and blher.
However, before she could exit, Fernando blocked her path, his expression stern.
“Miss Crawford, you'd better clarify things before you go anywhere.
He then turned to Matthew, who had just received the surveillance footage on his phone.
“Mr.
Clark, the video clearly shows Lindsay shaking off Joann’s hand, and then Joann falling toward Stella, causing her
fall.
Lucia’s and Waldo’s expressions hardened upon hearing Fernando’s summary.
