After My Boyfriend Dumped Me, He Ended Up Begging on the Streets novel Chapter 6

Lila got me an appointment fast.

I paid the bill and started the prep process.

The next morning, I headed to the clinic alone.

Lila had a driving test in a few days, and she'd promised to come with me later.

But I didn't want to wait.

If I did, I might not have the strength to go through with it.

Sitting in the waiting room, my hands fidgeted in my lap.

"Number 3. Zoe, you're up!"

The nurse called my name. I stood, about to step forward—

When suddenly, someone grabbed my wrist.

I stumbled backward, straight into a firm, familiar chest.

The scent of expensive cologne surrounded me.

A scent I knew all too well.

Eight years.

I didn't need to turn around to know it was him.

Caleb.

I shoved him away, scowling.

He was sweating, like he'd run here.

"Zoe, what the hell are you doing at the hospital?"

His voice was sharp, accusing.

I let out a cold laugh.

"How is that any of your business?"

The nurse called my name again, but before I could move, Caleb grabbed my hand and marched me out of the waiting room.

"Lie down and pull your pants down."

"I'll administer the anesthesia," the doctor instructed.

I had barely reached for my waistband when—

BANG.

The door slammed open.

Caleb stormed in, his expression dark, eyes locked onto the doctor.

"She's here for an abortion?"

The doctor frowned.

"Sir, you can't just barge into a gynecology procedure."

"This is a private matter. Now, please leave."

Caleb ignored him, striding toward me, his presence suffocating.

I glared at him, frustration boiling.
