Ruby felt as though someone had poured cold water over her.
She had never been pregnant before and was not aware that there were so many tests that she needed to get done. She was stunned.
Avery shoved the ultrasound diagram back into her hands. "By the way, you said that your baby is Elliot's, right? Once you are three months into the pregnancy, you better get a DNA test done, or you won't see the end!" "Very well! I'm not afraid of a DNA test!" Ruby handed the ultrasound results to the nanny and strode toward the bed. "Why haven't they administered his medication yet? Did the doctor not come today?" "Can't you read the clock?" Avery was extremely rude because she was in a bad mood. "I asked the doctor to change the meds he is on. They are now getting his new meds ready." The color on Ruby's face changed rapidly.
Avery was a doctor, who was qualified to make such decisions; she was a nobody, and her opinions did not matter in the face of Avery.

"Miss, you don't have to stay here and argue with her. Just let her take care of things in the hospital. Why bother fighting her over these tiring chores? Once Mr.
Foster wakes up, he will still be coming home with us," said the nanny consoling Ruby. "The doctor said you need more rest. Why don't | send you home?" Ruby did not like the situation. "If Elliot wakes up and doesn't see me—" "We will leave the bodyguards here. They will notify us when Mr. Foster wakes up." Ruby pursed her lips, conflicted.
"Let's go, Miss! Aren't you irritated by Avery Tate?" said the nanny.
Elliot showed no signs of waking up, and there was really no point in remaining in the hospital. She needed to go home and rest.
With that decided, she turned and left.
Once Ruby and her companions left, the nurse walked in with the new medication.
"Give that to me," Avery said to the nurse. "I will administer it to him."
The nurse chuckled. "Dr. Tate, we don't get to do anything anymore once you are here."
"These are all just small adjustments. How fast he recovers is up to him."

The nurse lowered her voice, "You don't know this, but she used to pester vice president Miller daily, wanting to know why he hasn't woken up yet. He was annoyed, but he dared not say anything." "You are all afraid of her because you live here. I'm not from Ylore, so I'm not taking it from her." Avery hung the IV bag, sterilized the indwelling needle, ?b&;RJW> screwed the pipe in.
"Aren't you afraid that she will come after you?" "She would have done it already if she had the guts for it." "That's true. Dr. Tate, all my colleagues think that you are better than Miss Gould. Once Mr. Foster wakes up, he will definitely go back to Aryadelle with you." Seeing how approachable Avery was, the nurse started chit-chatting with her.
Avery took the opportunity to ask the nurse some questions. "Do you know who is the father of the child Ruby is carrying? She said that it is Elliot's, but Elliot said the opposite." Troubled, the nurse said, "Um... | don't really know about that! It is true that her baby is a product of our lab, but that is not my department." Avery nodded in understanding.
"But | can help ask around. | have a friend in the fertility department. She must know something," the nurse offered enthusiastically.
Avery beamed. "Okay. Please help me ask around." "Sure. | am a bit busy right now, but I'll ask her at noon." "Thank you so much." Avery could not help but feel nervous.
