Can You Mend My Broken Heart? Chapter 141 That old friend of hers

Dr. Brooks wrote a couple of medicines as prescription and then said,

“Miss Bennet these are the medicines that you need to start from today. My assistant Anna who is sitting outside will explain to you about the timings and everything”.

“Thank you, Dr. Brooks. I shall take my leave then”, Katherine said.

“But wait for a moment, Miss Bennet. These test reports are like 7 months old. Let’s do an ultrasound now to see the status of your ovaries”, Dr. Brooks said and pointed at the exam bed to her left-hand side.

“Oh Bollocks !!!”, screamed David, who was listening to everything live, outside the hospital and rushed in.

“Is that really necessary? My dress is quite expensive and this ultrasound gel will ruin it for sure”, Katherine said throwing an air of tantrum.

“Well Miss Bennet, it is always better to take a second opinion. Let’s get you checked. Maybe we can see if there is any way or any scope using surgery. Shall we?”, Dr. Brooks said and got up from her seat.

Katherine got up very reluctantly from her seat and then lied down on the exam bed.

Dr. Brooks had already pressed the bell for the attendant to come and she smeared her belly with the cold ultrasound gel. Katherine was getting uncomfortable with every passing second and was counting her blessings.

A few seconds later there was a loud knock on the door.

It was David.

“I am sorry to interrupt doctor but there is an emergency and Miss Bennet needs to go home immediately”, David spoke all panic driven.

Dr. Brooks heard David and said,

“That’s ok. Anyways we are done here. I have taken the necessary images”, and she smiled at Katherine who looked quite pale.

As Katherine put her shoes back, Dr. Brooks looked at her ultrasound images and sighed,

“To be honest, I don’t want to raise your hopes, Miss Bennet. With such a high level of Polycystic nature of your ovaries, it’s really difficult to have a kid”.

“I know”, said Katherine and left the room.

She saw David waiting outside the room and smiled at him gently.

“I am sorry, I should have come earlier. Did she suspect anything because of the ultrasound scan? Will she be able to know that the reports were fake?”, David asked impatiently as he saw her looking all dejected.

“No, she won’t”, Katherine said and smiled at David and walked towards the exit of the ward.

David followed behind unable to understand.

The moment she exited the gynecology department she stopped and said,

“David I am going to the washroom. Please don’t call or text Raymond anything about this. He won’t be able to take this well.”

David nodded and Katherine went inside the washroom and removed the fake hair, the excess makeup, prosthetic nose, and chin tighteners. She brushed her hair and tried to look uptight but deep down something was eating her up.

She picked up her bag and came out of the washroom and checked her phone to see if Raymond had pinged anything. While she was walking absent-mindedly with her focus on the phone, she bumped against someone and her phone fell down.

But before she could even bend to pick it up, someone had already picked it up and handed it over to her,

“You are still clumsy aren’t you?”, he said and smiled at her.

Katherine looked up and saw Shawn standing in front of her.

“Shawn Cummins !!! Is that you?”, she spoke in surprise.

“How long has it been !!!”, she exclaimed.

“Well 4 years to be precise since Nate’s wedding as in face-to-face and 3 hours since our last call”, he said and smiled.

“Still have that crisp memory of yours huh !!!”, Katherine said and teased him.

“Well people like you can’t be forgotten that easy”, he said and smiled.

“Duh… “, Katherine said and rolled her eyes.

“By the way do you have the documents ready, which I had asked you for?”, Katherine asked.

“Yup !!! In my cabin. I can give you right now if you want”, Shawn asked and looked a bit suspiciously at David, unable to decide if it was safe for him to talk about Dr. Brooks in front of him.

“Yeah, that would be better and this is David. He is … He is like family”, Katherine said and smiled warmly looking at David.

“Follow me then”, Shawn said and walked ahead.

As they entered his cabin, he immediately went to his draw and picked out a file and gave it to Katherine and said,

“This is all the information that I could pull”.

“Thanks a lot, Shawn. I don’t know how indebted I am to you for this help”, Katherine said and looked at him with gratitude.

“Ugghh… it was nothing. Don’t say all that”, Shawn said and then turned back to his desk and immediately turned a photo-frame upside down with a swift move.

“How did your thing go with Dr. Brooks? Was she behind all this?”, Shawn asked.

“Well yeah, pretty much. She fooled us by plugging in some fake ultrasound video and she tampered with the DNA test too. She admitted doing all that herself and I have recorded it”, Katherine said.

“That’s good enough then. I have also pulled out the papers of Scarlett’s abortion procedure and from the pharmacy records, I have also obtained a copy of Dr. Brook’s prescription in which she has asked her to take pregnancy hormones and that’s dated a week back, So with all this, you can easily prove that she is lying”, Shawn said and pointed at the page where the pharmacy prescription was.

“Thank you so much for your help, Shawn. I don’t know what to say. I called you up randomly, without even staying in touch for all these years and still you helped me and took such risks”, Katherine said and sighed.

“Don’t worry Kat, Raymond is like a baby brother for me too. Ask him to stay strong”, Shawn said and gave her a comforting look.

“Ok then, I will get going. We have a battle to win”, Katherine said and waved at Shawn and left the room with David.

While they were returning to the car, David asked,

“So this Shawn guy, he has a thing for you right?”

“What? C’mon David, what are you saying? We were just friends in college. That’s it. Let’s focus on Scarlett as of now”, Katherine said quickened her pace.

“Well I am not blind Katherine, and don’t tell me that you didn’t see the picture of you both together on his table, although he turned it upside down the very second I glanced at it”, David said and opened the car door for Katherine.

“David ?”

“Yes Katherine”

“Just because I said you are family, you will now bash me up like my mom is it?”, Katherine said and shut the car door.

“No way !!!”, David exclaimed all of a sudden after looking at his phone.

“What happened?”, Katherine asked in surprise.

“The surveillance data of the villa, in which Scarlett is staying has been destroyed. All the disks have been wiped clean”, David said looking all worried.
