With that thought, she took out her phone and sent a WeChat message to Jungkook.
"Are you there?"

"I'm here," Jungkook replied within seconds.

"I heard... your company's employees are all pulling night shifts for the next week."

"Yeah."

"Why?"

"Because night shifts are good." Jungkook's reply was undeniably suspicious.

What kind of answer was that? Lisa was certain that JC's sudden night shifts definitely had something to do with her.

This wasn't because she was narcissistic, it was just too much of a coincidence that whenever she had a night shift, so did everyone at JC.

"I get off work at 8 AM tomorrow morning."

"What a coincidence, I get off work tomorrow morning at eight as well," Jungkook replied.

Lisa was so angry that she wasn't sure whether she should laugh or cry...

Coincidence, what coincidence was this? He was clearly following her work schedule, okay?

"Are you coming home after work tomorrow morning?"

"Yeah."

"Then let's talk then, I have some things to tell you."

"Okay."

After sending the Wechat message, Lisa sighed... and she lost her appetite.

If her need to work night shifts led to the misery of the entire JC corporation, then wouldn't she be considered a big sinner?

"Unnie, why aren't you eating?"

"I'm full."

"You ate so little, you have no appetite, and you look so pale... are you pregnant? When we return to the clinic, we should get you an ultrasound," Wonyoung said cheekily.

"An ultrasound my ass. What pregnancy, maybe I was just lusting about romance." Lisa tapped her chopsticks on Wonyoung's head.

After spending so much time with Wonyoung, Lisa realized that she was a silly, sweet girl...

Wonyoung was still young, her heart was pure, and she hadn't yet been corrupted by society.

Other than working at the hospital, she spent the majority of her days submerged in romantic Korean dramas. Truth be told, Lisa was quite envious of Wonyoung a lot of the times.

At least her life was simple. She was careless, like a child...

After working through the night, she was finally able to go home. Lisa had to take care of an expecting mother all night.

The pregnant woman had already reached her due date, and the baby was to arrive any day now.

Word was that she had married into a wealthy family, and her mother-in-law and husband demanded that she give birth naturally, claiming that a C-section was bad for the baby.

But after looking at the data, Lisa discovered that it was highly unlikely for this expecting mother to give birth naturally.

First off, the baby's umbilical cord was wrapped twice around its neck, which was extremely dangerous and may cause the baby to suffocate at birth.

The other reason was that the pregnant woman had extremely high blood pressure, and her urology report came back with two extra positives.

This was a sign of gestational hypertension, and during the ultrasound, the gynecologist had said that the infant was estimated to be between 4.5 to 5.1 kg.
