00:19How are you going to thank me? Zoe grew more anxious as she finished putting on her sterile
00:25clothes while she was awed by her surroundings and greatly appreciated Blaine making special
00:32arrangements for her to observe the procedure. She couldn't forget that the person Blaine would
00:38be operating on was her mother. After Kelly informed Blaine that everything was in place
00:44for the operation, he thanked her and turned to Zoe. Ready? When Zoe nodded yes, he said,
00:51okay, let's go. Blaine raised his sterile hands in front of his chest and headed towards the
00:58operating room door. Zoe, is that you? Zoe? Is that you? Zoe turned around at the sound of Josie's
01:06shocked voice. He would assist Blaine with her mother's surgery and had just arrived to scrub in.
01:13Zoe smiled at Zoe in surprise, then raised his eyebrows mischievously at Blaine,
01:18who had paused by the door to wait for Zoe. Josie grinned. Dr. Dexter, you're too much.
01:26You know this isn't a woman's ideal date, right? Next time, try dinner in a movie. Zoe's face
01:33immediately blushed as she quickly tried to explain. I begged Dr. Dexter to allow me to
01:38observe my mom's operation. Blaine glanced at Zoe, but remained silent. I just saw your mother.
01:46They just finished administering her anesthesia. Don't worry. Zoe, with Dr. Dexter operating,
01:54she's in good hands. Josie smiled and went to pat Zoe's shoulder to reassure her.
01:59As Zoe smiled gratefully at him, she's already sterile, Dr. Ramirez. Blaine warned Josie coldly
02:06as he stared meaningfully at Josie's approaching hand. Josie realized what was happening and
02:12quickly pulled his hand back without touching Zoe. Oh, sure, right. Dr. Dexter got it. I'm sure
02:20that's the only reason you didn't want me touching Zoe. Josie laughed. Blaine pursed his lips and
02:27scowled at his resident while Zoe blushed. Blaine didn't say anything else. He just stepped on a
02:33pedal so the door to the operating room would open automatically. Zoe was amazed as she stepped
02:40into an operating room for the first time. She looked around in awe. Everything was so new to
02:46her. She looked at Blaine, who was watching her closely. His eyes seemed to be simmering with
02:51emotion. Zoe suddenly thought of everything that had happened in her room earlier. Flustered, Zoe
02:58quickly looked down. She studied Blaine's shoes, now wrapped in sterile covers, as he walked over
03:04and stopped directly in front of her. Zoe felt his presence even though he didn't touch her.
03:10Blaine quietly explained. You can observe behind that partition over there. The area around the
03:17operating table is restricted, and no one is allowed to enter except medical personnel. Do
03:22you understand? Blaine pointed to the partition at the end of the room, the top half of which was
03:29glass. All right. Zoe agreed obediently. Don't worry, I won't intrude. Blaine nodded. When we
03:38begin your mother's operation, the procedure will be displayed on the monitors. There is a monitor
03:44behind the partition that you can watch it on. All right. Zoe nodded again. If you feel the images
03:50are too bloody or you become nauseous or upset, stop watching. Blaine advised. He seemed a little
03:57worried about her. All right. Zoe repeated a third time, her mouth curving into a small smile.
04:05She appreciated how considerate Blaine was being. She knew he was nervous about operating on Zoe's
04:11mother, so she tried to reassure him. Don't worry about me. I'll be fine, and don't be nervous.
04:20You've got this. Zoe couldn't touch him, so instead she clenched her fists into a cheering
04:26gesture and said, Go, Blaine, with an encouraging smile. Unexpectedly, Blaine lowered his head and
04:34kissed Zoe's earlobe. Zoe's face looked like it was on fire, and she blushed from the top of her
04:40head to the tips of her toes. I think I prefer a kiss for encouragement, Blaine said casually.
04:47Then, ignoring the wolf whistles of the medical team, he turned around and walked towards the
04:53operating table without hesitation, and here I was worried the pressure of this operation might
04:59get to you, Dr. Dexter. Shoes, he exclaimed. Instead, you're Dr. Don Juan flirting in the
05:07operating room. Let's have Kelly dim the lights for some good mood lighting. Maybe she can light
05:13some candles and put on some slow jams while she's at it, he teased, listening to Joze's teasing.
05:20Blaine cast a cold glare in his direction. I should have you lie on my operating table so
05:25I can sew your mouth shut. The door to the operating room opened, and everyone instantly
05:30grew serious. Two nurses pushed Gloria into the room on a hospital bed. The anesthesia had already
05:38taken effect, and Zoe's mother was already asleep. Mom, Zoe's smile faded as she hurried to her
05:44mother's side, looking at her mother lying there. Zoe felt her chest tighten painfully.
05:51She gripped her mother's cold hand, whispering, Mom, just hold on a little bit longer. This will
05:57all be over soon. Don't worry. Dr. Dexter will do his best to help you, so don't be nervous.
06:05I'll be right here the whole time. Zoe knew her mother couldn't hear her, but she believed her
06:11mother could feel her encouragement. I'm sorry, Miss Fuller, but we need to begin.
06:18Please step aside. The nurse kindly asked Zoe. Oh, of course I'm sorry.
06:26Zoe hurriedly let go of her mother's hand and moved out of their way to behind the partition.
06:32The doctors and nurses lifted Gloria onto the operating table, and a piece of canvas was
06:37stretched across the table, blocking the top half of her mother's body. From view,
06:43various instruments and microscopes loomed above her. As the chief surgeon, Blaine was already
06:49standing in front of the microscope with a solemn expression. A light strapped to his forehead gave
06:56off an intense white light. He looked confident and calm, and Zoe was reminded again of how grateful
07:02she was that he would be the one operating on her mother. If anyone could help her mom,
07:09it would be Blaine. Blaine put on the mask hanging from one ear, and as if he could feel Zoe's gaze,
07:16he raised his eyes slightly to look at her. Blaine's eyes were bottomless as he returned
07:22her gaze. She lifted her lips and gave him an encouraging smile before he lowered his head
07:28and buried himself in the surgery. Josie was assisting, and their chief surgical nurse,
07:34Kelly, was handing over the surgical instruments. Zoe stared at the display monitor, her heart and
07:42her throat, as the procedure began. She clasped her hands together and closed her eyes to say a
07:49prayer. The operating room was so quiet that the only sounds were Blaine's commands and the slight
07:55clinking of the instruments. Everyone seemed tense. Blaine's cold face filled with an intense
08:02seriousness that Zoe had never seen before. Without a doubt, this was a complicated operation,
08:08and he couldn't allow himself even a moment of distraction. Everyone in the room knew how complex
08:15and critical this operation was, how important this patient was. Everyone was so nervous that
08:22they hardly dared to breathe. Josie felt a cold sweat trickle down his back. Zoe stared fixedly
08:29at the display screen, her eyes unblinking as she watched each surgical instrument float past her
08:36mother's brain. What surprised her was that the operation was not as terrifying as she had
08:41imagined. On the contrary, watching the process took away the fear of the unknown, calming her
08:48down quite a bit. However, seeing the blood did cause Zoe's stomach to churn and she felt nauseous.
08:55After several long hours, the operation was finally over. Josie couldn't help but exclaim while
09:02clapping with the rest of the medical team, Zoe, your mother's surgery went brilliantly. Your man
09:08is a medical genius. Zoe was so excited that her eyes filled with tears. She wanted to rush over to
09:15look at her mother on the operating table, but she remained where she was, heeding Blaine's warning.
09:22She could only anxiously stay behind the partition, wordly and happily looking at her mother as they
09:29prepared to move her. Blaine snapped off his gloves and raised his eyes to look at Zoe.
09:36Come here. His words were like a king's amnesty. Zoe was so happy that she quickly walked around
09:43the partition toward her mother. However, as she approached, Blaine suddenly reached out and wrapped
09:49his arm around her waist, stopping her. He pulled Zoe back to his front. She could hear his deep
09:55voice behind her ear, careful, don't get too close. Although your mother's operation was successful,
10:03she is fragile and we can't risk contamination. Zoe nodded that she understood. Her nervousness
10:10and panic turned into relief and fatigue. Zoe felt a wave of exhaustion go through her as her
10:16body relaxed. She leaned back against Blaine's warm chest and let him hold her, unwilling to move.
10:24Kelly and Zoe pushed Gloria out. Zoe was about to follow, but Blaine stopped her. He tightened his
10:31grip around her. Your mother is being taken to the IQ. Visitors aren't allowed. Zoe turned around in
10:38his embrace and looked at him with concern. Is she all right? The hardest part is over, but we must
10:45watch her closely during recovery. Blaine answered her question thoughtfully. Zoe heaved a sigh of
10:54relief with a relieved smile. She said, that's good. Then she hurriedly thanked him. Blaine,
11:02thank you. After the operation, she felt closer to him. Almost everyone in the operating room
11:09had left. Zoe struggled shyly in his embrace. Shall we leave as well? Yes. Blaine muttered as
11:17he quickly ripped off her mask, revealing her delicate and pretty face that was slightly red
11:22and swollen. The arm around her waist tightened. Zoe's soft breasts pressed against him as he
11:29pulled her closer, and Blaine felt his desire build. His palm cupped the back of her head,
11:36forcing Zoe to raise her head and look at him. How are you going to thank me?
11:42His dark eyes were brimming with anticipation. Zoe looked up at him as if in a trance,
11:48her breathing slightly erratic. Aye, I buy you dinner, Blaine frowned, looking highly unsatisfied.
11:57That's it. Zoe gasped, her heartbeat chaotic. Then what do you want? Blaine's eyes heated
12:05dangerously. I'm sure I'll think of something. He responded with a smirk. Episode 81, Pregnant or Not
12:15Blaine had asked Zoe how she would thank him for her mother's successful surgery,
12:20and clearly he already had some ideas. As Blaine stared at Zoe with heated eyes,
12:27her eyelashes fluttered as Blaine's face moved closer to hers before he passionately kissed her,
12:33right there in the operating room. One of Blaine's hands held her head and the other tightened around
12:40her waist, pressing Zoe so close to him that there was no space between their bodies.
12:45His kiss mesmerized Zoe. She gasped for air when Blaine finally released her.
12:52She was flushed and tried to withdraw from Blaine's embrace, but he refused to let her go.
12:58He gripped Zoe's chin with his fingers as he studied her face. He looked down at her,
13:03frowning. What's going on? You look so awful, huh? Zoe looked at him with a puzzled expression.
13:12She patted her hot cheeks with both hands and said with embarrassment,
13:16Do I look pale? Are you currently experiencing nausea? Blaine asked her nervously. Zoe blinked
13:24her eyes. Did he notice this too? Not so much nausea. My stomach is just feeling a bit sensitive.
13:32It's just uncomfortable. It's probably nerves because of my mother's operation,
13:37or I'm just tired. I've been up for a long time. Zoe felt drowsy as she spoke.
13:44Blaine frowned and looked at her anxiously. Zoe, you aren't pregnant, are you? What?
13:51Zoe was a little taken aback by his question. I don't think so. But Zoe had to admit to herself
13:57that even she was becoming increasingly uncertain. When I was admitted, the doctor said,
14:04I showed no signs of pregnancy. Blaine scowled. Just because you aren't showing signs of pregnancy,
14:10it doesn't mean that you're not pregnant. Pregnancy often can't be detected until after
14:15a missed period. Zoe had never seen Blaine look so nervous before. He dragged her towards the door
14:22and out of the operating room as they walked. Blaine asked her, When was your last menstrual
14:28cycle? So he was flustered. What? Dr. Brenner said, I'm not pregnant. Besides, I don't want
14:38to discuss my cycle with you. That's a private matter. Blaine suddenly stopped walking and
14:44glared at Zoe in exasperation. I'm a doctor, Zoe. I'm not embarrassed to talk about these things.
14:52You shouldn't be either. You are already the mother of a child. Don't tell me you don't even
14:58have the most basic knowledge of how this works. Many women are pregnant for a month before testing
15:04shows a positive result. In response to his bluntness, Zoe grew upset and slightly panicked.
15:12But even more so, she felt wronged. She shook off Blaine's hand and turned to confront him,
15:18not wanting to show any weakness. Why are you shouting at me? Stop blaming me for this.
15:25I am not devoid of common sense. I'm not a doctor. Why is your hospital not responsible?
15:31Why didn't the A.R. doctor warn me that it might be too early to detect pregnancy? Besides,
15:38what right do you have to growl at me if I'm pregnant? I didn't get that way by myself.
15:46The child would be yours as the father. The last person who should be yelling at me about this
15:51is you. She has it plain as Zoe spoke. Her eyes reddened and a tear rolled down her cheek.
15:58And even if I was pregnant, how likely would it be that our baby survived my attack? Zoe,
16:05a series of questions made Blaine's eyes tighten and the calmness in his eyes vanished.
16:11Zoe was dragged into Blaine's embrace by the force of his arms. His chest was hot, and when
16:17he pressed it against Zoe's body, it made her feel as if her entire body was burning up, angry.
16:24Zoe reached out to push him away, but Blaine only hugged her tighter. I apologize. You're right.
16:31I shouldn't have yelled at you. Blaine's deep voice sounded genuinely distraught. Zoe was stunned.
16:38She returned to her senses and pushed him away, a faint redness appearing on her cheeks.
16:44Now we're both just guessing, and the baby might still be in my belly. Blaine's mood improved a
16:50little. Whether you're pregnant or not, it's time to consult an expert. Zoe didn't refuse and let
16:57Blaine pull her through the corridors to the hospital's obstetrics and gynecology department.
17:03The ob-gyn gave Zoe a complete examination and asked her a series of questions.
17:08When was your last period? 20 days ago, Zoe answered honestly. Blaine stood beside Zoe
17:16quietly with his hands in the pockets of his white coat, listening to every word the doctor
17:22said to her. The creases in his brow revealed Blaine's current nervousness. He found waiting
17:28to find out if he would become a father more nerve-wracking than the most challenging operation.
17:35The doctor examined her urine test results and then handed them to Zoe,
17:40saying your urine test is negative. When Zoe heard this, she couldn't help but feel disappointed.
17:46So it's like that. Blaine's eyes grew dark. Zoe turned around and looked up at him,
17:53her lips pressed together tightly. The result was the same. She wasn't pregnant. Blaine touched
18:00the back of Zoe's head. It was a simple gesture, but his touch comforted Zoe. Her lonely heart
18:07unconsciously calmed down. Ms. Fuller, have you felt anything strange in your body lately?
18:14Any symptoms I should know about? the doctor asked Zoe. Zoe turned back to the doctor.
18:20A little. I am tired often and my stomach is more sensitive. I don't know if it's because
18:26I took medicine, but sometimes I have trouble concentrating. The doctor lowered his head and
18:32wrote notes on Zoe's chart. It's like this. Your negative result is likely because you are still
18:38in the early stages of conception. Testing conducted this early is not always accurate
18:44and we can get a negative result even if you are pregnant. So, Ms. Fuller, my advice is to wait
18:51until you have officially missed your period. If you miss your cycle, you should return to the
18:56hospital for a second test. Also, while you wait, you should treat your body as if you are.
19:03This means no alcohol or caffeine and you should be cautious about taking medicine.
19:09Blaine unconsciously put his hand on Zoe's shoulder and looked at the obgyn opposite her
19:15with a severe expression. All right. Zoe agreed and nodded. Zoe walked out of the doctor's office
19:23without waiting for Blaine when they were through. She was halfway down the hall when Zoe felt a
19:28tight grip on her waist and a sturdy arm pull her over. She fell into Blaine's firm chest without
19:35any warning. What are you doing? Zoe blushed and struggled. Blaine, stop messing around. Let me go.
19:44There are so many people around. Blaine didn't let her go. He put his lips next to her ear and
19:50whispered, What are you so afraid of? I said that if you were pregnant, I would marry you.
19:57Zoe froze. She stopped fighting him and stood motionless in his embrace, her heart beating
20:04rapidly. You stop joking around. Zoe reached for the big hand at her waist. Blaine her left and
20:12cupped her cheek with his hand, forcing Zoe to look at him. His eyes scrutinized her face and he said,
20:19looking at you in such a state, I might think you were looking forward to being pregnant with my
20:24child. Zoe blinked and gasped for breath with difficulty. She slapped his hand away and said,
20:31Nonsense. Zoe, if you're truly pregnant, you should be glad. Blaine said meaningfully before
20:38letting go of Zoe and walking straight ahead. Why? Zoe asked with a frown as she hurried to
20:45catch up with him. This child can also save your son. There's a chance that the umbilical cord
20:52blood of his half-brother would match Max, Blaine said. Zoe was stunned. She glanced at Blaine
20:58carefully and asked Blaine, Do you like my son? I like Max, although as Matthew's son,
21:06I don't have any reason to like him. Blaine's voice was a bit cold. Zoe felt a pain, but the
21:13child is innocent after all. Blaine frowned. Why are you asking me how I feel about your son? He
21:20stopped and crossed his arms over his chest as he examined Zoe with a mocking smile. He said,
21:26What? I'm supposed to embrace co-parenting with a love rival just because I marry you.
21:32Are we supposed to become one big, happy, blended family? Blaine's words made Zoe's face darken.
21:42Blaine, I think you misunderstood. I never thought of marrying you because my son likes you.
21:49I asked for him. Zoe knew she didn't have any right to be angry with Blaine.
21:54She was the one who plundered their relationship. Their current predicament was not Blaine's doing.
22:00After Zoe finished speaking, she turned to walk away, not wanting to continue their conversation.
22:07However, Blaine pulled her back and said arrogantly, Zoe, don't misunderstand me.
22:13If you're not pregnant, I won't marry you. Zoe smiled benignly. That's right. How could
22:21I forget about your wonderful fiance? She marked saying such things can easily be mistaken as you
22:28being jealous. Blaine raised his eyebrows. Zoe smiled. Since Dr. Dexter has met his fiance,
22:35you should know what I mean. Blaine stared at Zoe, but he didn't say anything else. He let
22:41go of her and headed for the IQ to check on her mother. Zoe silently followed him.
22:47Blaine received a USB drive from the police station. On it was a bunch of digital photos
22:54and a short video. The video was a police recording of a meeting in a dark, abandoned factory
23:00on the outskirts of Scottsdale. Three people appeared on camera. One was the red-haired man,
23:08Aaron. One was the scumbag whose eyes Zoe had taken out. And the third man was undoubtedly
23:14their buyer. The last man was tall and dressed in a well-cut suit. Blaine frowned as the camera
23:21zoomed in on the buyer's face. He recognized the man. It was Grant, one of Sophia's bodyguards.
23:28Sophia really was behind Zoe's attack. Blaine turned up the volume so he could hear their
23:34conversation. My mistress is very dissatisfied with your performance. You informed us that
23:40this would be a simple matter, and it has turned into anything but with teams of police combing
23:45the city for clues. This is such an incompetent way of doing things, Grant said tersely. What
23:52reason does your mistress have to be dissatisfied? My brother was the one that was blinded by that
23:58woman. He lost an eye. Aaron's temper was explosive, but Grant only stared at him coldly.
24:06My mistress wanted you to kick her, to get rid of the woman's child,
24:10rape her and burn her face with acid. But what did you two good-for-nothings do?
24:15At most, she might have lost her child, but that remains uncertain. Therefore, you will receive
24:23only half of your fee for the botched operation. In these bags are $200,000 for your time and
24:30continued silence, and the other $200,000 is compensation for your eye. You should consider
24:37yourselves lucky. My mistress has been this generous. Grant then arrogantly threw two bags
24:44of unmarked bills at their feet. Blaine closed his laptop heavily. The expression on his face
24:50was dangerous. Blaine took out his cell phone and called Sophia's number. Blaine. Sophia happily
24:58greeted him. She was thrilled he had called her. Sophia's excitement quickly faded when she heard
25:04Blaine's cold tone. Sophia, I think it's time for you and me to have a good chat.
25:12An hour later, Sophia stood in Blaine's living room. Blaine lazily sat on the sofa but didn't
25:18offer her a seat. He hadn't smiled or greeted Sophia when she arrived. Blaine's stony-faced
25:24demeanor sent a shiver of unease down Sophia's spine. All evidence of the elegant, courteous
25:31gentleman was gone. She had never seen Blaine like this before in her anxiety. Sophia's hand tightened
25:38on the strap of her bag until it was wiped. Blaine, what can I do for you? Sophia asked him
25:45softly, carefully maintaining her gentle and serene expression. Blaine threw the USB at Sophia's feet.
25:54He leaned back into the sofa, crossing his legs in a seemingly casual manner, and sneered at her
26:00coldly. I watched a fascinating video tonight, and I thought you might want to watch it as well.
26:06Let me see if I remember the dialogue correctly. Your instructions were to kick Zoe in the stomach,
26:12to terminate her pregnancy, and then rape her afterward. Blaine paused, and his tone turned
26:18deadly. Oh wait, I almost forgot. Let's not forget, you also asked your hired thugs to finish the job
26:26by throwing acid in Zoe's face. Sophia instantly paled, biting her lower lip so hard she almost
26:32drew blood. Blaine watched as her serene expression transformed into one of horror. Her eyes flickered
26:39in panic as they grew misty. Blaine, I don't know what you're talking about. What nonsense is this
26:46about? Zoe, I don't understand a word of it. She pretended Sophia tried to deny any knowledge,
26:55but Blaine wasn't buying it. Don't insult my intelligence, Sophia. You aren't fooling me.
27:02The video shows your bodyguard talking to the two men who hurt Zoe. As for what they said,
27:08you should know better than anyone since they were your orders, right? Blaine coldly smiled.
27:13Sophia burst into tears. Blaine, I have no idea what you're talking about. Could my bodyguard
27:20have done something to hurt Zoe? Growing impatient, Blaine hissed at her. Whether you admit it to me
27:27or not, I know it was you. Sophia, I do not need to discuss the matter further. I have only one
27:36thing left to say to you. Blaine paused before sneering. I will not marry a heartless woman.
27:43Thank you so much for watching.
