Chapter 48

• "Pregnancy has many reasons. It's not always her fault. Things outside of her can also affect it. Like stress. I once had a patient who was stressed out at work so much, she couldn't conceive for ten years. She left her job, and within a year, she was pregnant. Another patient was stressed out from her mother-in-law. They moved away, and she conceived," I said, sounding suave.
• "So you're saying Clara couldn't become pregnant due to me?" Eleanor exclaimed, her face reddening.
• "That's not what I'm saying. She was on so much medication. Maybe they finally worked. She never came back for a checkup, so I don't know the specifics," I stated. I knew she never came back. I had been waiting for her to, so I could make sure she couldn't have a child. I would have made sure she never gave birth. I didn't say that.
