Chapter 144 Pregnancy Madison looked at her in confusion.
Sierra blinked and explained, "He's Benson's uncle. I've always seen him as an adult figure of mine. Besides, I've just ended things with Benson. Wouldn't it be weird if I suddenly married his uncle now?" "He's Benson's uncle, that's right. However, that's his family relationship, and it has nothing to do with you. What's wrong with marrying your ex-boyfriend's uncle? I think you and Theo are a perfect match." Sierra still felt uneasy. "That won't do. Regardless of why Uncle Theo wants to marry me, I just got out of a relationship. I'm really not in the mood to start a new one.
"I just want to live an ordinary life, free from being disturbed by anyone." Her slightly hoarse voice was filled with exhaustion.
"But other than Theo, who else can stop Benson from harassing you?" Madison asked sharply.

Sierra's expression froze momentarily. She then bit her lip lightly and lowered her gaze as her eyes were filled with mixed emotions.
After a while, she slowly asked, "There will be other ways. I'll just take things one step at a time." Sophie had originally pretended, but after arriving at the hospital, she did feel a bit dizzy, so she went ahead with a full check-up.
After Benson had arranged the check-up for her, he left the hospital. Sophie quickly contacted Clyde before lying back on the hospital bed anxiously.
As soon as her phone rang, she picked it up and answered right away after seeing that it was Clyde calling her back. "Hello? How did things go?" Clyde said, "I already deleted the surveillance footage for you and only the parts you wanted to keep are still there." Hearing his words, Sophie let out a sigh of relief, and her tense expression finally eased up. "That's good." "You always have to rely onduring such critical moments, don't you?" Clyde's smug voice cthrough, causing Sophie to frown.
Although Clyde had only finished elementary school, he was incredibly street-smart. He spent all his thanging around intecafes, gaming, and befriending skilled hackers.
If it weren't for the help of one of his friends, she would've been in big trouble if Benson ended up checking the surveillance footage.
"Thank you for that," Sophie said.
"There's no need to thank me. Just giveanother 100,000 dollars." Hearing his request, Sophie frowned and asked, "Didn't I just give you 20,000 dollars a few days ago?" Clyde retorted, "Don't I need the money to get someone to help you delete that surveillance footage?" "But didn't you say that it was your friend who helped?"
"Even friends need to be treated to a meal whenever they lend a helping m hand, right? A decent meal these days costs at least 1,000 dollars or so. I need to maintain good relations with them so they can help you in the future." Clyde spoke as if his reasons for asking for so much money were perfectly justified.

After ending the call, she was filled with irritation and just the thought of Clyde's ugly face was enough to make her nauseous.
Just then, the doctor walked in.
"Ms. Scott, why didn't you inform the nurse that you were pregnant? We almost gave you smedication that could harm the fetus. That would have been very dangerous." The doctor's words hit her like lightning, leaving her shocked.
She stared at the doctor in disbelief, took the examination report from the doctor, and saw the line at the bottom that read "Four weeks pregnant." Her face instantly turned pale, and her fingers trembled slightly.
Seeing Sophie's shocked expression, the doctor guessed she hadn't known and asked with concern, "Ms. Scott, is the man who brought you here today the father? Do you wantto contact him?"
