The Villainess Needs a Hug (Ivy Windsor) novel Chapter 641

Chapter 641

Ivy shot Jamison a reassuring look, signaling that he didn’t need to worry, then turned her attention back to the phone. “Are you in some kind of trouble?”

“…” Roberta barely managed a single word before her voice broke, thick with tears. “I found out I was pregnant. It was an accident. I bought abortion pills online and tried to handle it myself, but then… there was so much blood. It hurt so badly, I thought I was going to die. I ended up calling an ambulance, but I don’t have any money…”

Ivy’s face went pale, her brow knitting in shock and concern.

“I know it’s a lot to ask. I know I hurt you before, but I have no one else to turn to… Could you please lend me a thousand dollars? I swear I’ll pay you back, with interest if you want.”

Instead of answering, Ivy asked, “What about your boyfriend? Where is he?”

“Don’t even mention him! That bastard traded up for the boss’s daughter and dumped me without warning. He took all my scholarship money, my living expenses–every penny I had. He said he needed it for a used car, then

disappeared. If he hadn’t cleaned me out, I wouldn’t be so desperate–couldn’t even afford a procedure at the hospital…”

Another worthless jerk. Ivy was seething, even over the phone.

“Where are you now?”

“I’m at the women’s hospital. The ambulance brought me here.”

“Okay, I’ll come find you.”

As soon as she hung up, Ivy turned to her husband. “It’s my old roommate–her boyfriend tricked her out of all her savings, she got pregnant by accident, tried to handle it herself, started hemorrhaging, and now she’s in the ER without a cent to her name. She’s asked me for money.”

Jamison had always been indifferent to people outside his circle. He just nodded calmly. “Then lend it to her.”

Small change like that meant nothing to someone in his position. Whether she paid it back or not, it was no big deal–if anything, it was a good deed.

Ivy frowned, hesitating for a moment. “She’s at the women’s hospital. I want to go check on her.”

Chapter 641

Afraid he’d think she was meddling, she explained how Roberta had once shielded her from the rain and walked her to the library, and how she’d changed her number. and moved out of the dorm to avoid Emma and her friends–indirectly, Ivy felt responsible for her situation.

Besides, she wanted to see for herself if Roberta was telling the truth. Even if a thousand dollars wasn’t much, she didn’t want to be cammed..

Jamison glanced at his watch. It wasn’t even eight in the evening yet. The hospital was only half an hour away if traffic was light.

“All right, let’s go,” he said.

“Thank you, sweetheart.”

Half an hour later, they arrived at the women’s hospital.

Given Jamison’s reputation in the medical community, the moment they walked into the ER, a nurse in dark green scrubs recognized him and exclaimed, “Professor Ludwig! What brings you here tonight?”

Jamison offered a polite smile. “Just visiting a friend.”

Ivy seized the opportunity to ask, “Excuse me, doctor, is there a young woman who was brought in by ambulance after taking abortion pills and losing a lot of blood?”

The doctor immediately nodded and pointed down the corridor. “Over there. Is she your friend?”

“Something like that,” Ivy replied before heading in that direction.

Sure enough, she found Roberta lying alone in one of the curtained–off beds in the emergency ward, pale and hooked up to an IV, looking utterly drained.

Ivy walked over and called softly, “Roberta.”

No response.

“Roberta?”

She called again, and this time Roberta’s eyelids fluttered open. When she saw Ivy, there was a flash of genuine emotion in her eyes.

“Ivy… you really came…” She tried to sit up, but Ivy hurried over to stop her.

“Don’t move. Just rest.”

Seeing this, Jamison quietly excused himself to speak with the doctors about her
