There would be two debates, which lasted about three hours.
It was held in the large conference room of the school, which was full of students now.
With so many people here, Kathy's hands got slippery. She couldn't help but clench her hands.
Reece stood beside her and looked worried about her.
"Kathy, you can do it." Reece tried to encourage her.
Kathy raised her head and slowly nodded. She found her seat and sat down. Her eyes ranged over the
students and came to rest on someone on the right side.
Kathy could see the handsome man in a white shirt from such a distance. He was like God's
masterpiece, attracting everyone's attention.
When Kathy saw his smile, she miraculously calmed down.
Reece looked in the direction and saw Joseph. Something cold moved in his eyes.
Soon, the debate began. After seeing Joseph, Kathy had a good performance. She won the first debate
and advanced to the second round. They could rest for 30 minutes before the second debate.
Kathy got off the stage and looked at Joseph. It was too troublesome for her to go over there. She
could only wait until the end of the debate.
As Kathy was thinking, Reece walked over. "Zofia has got out of the surgery."
"How's she feeling?" Kathy asked with concern.
"You can go to see her after the debate." Reece did not answer her question.
But Kathy knew the answer from his tone.
Zofia didn't keep the baby.
Kathy trembled slightly, and her face turned pale.
But she knew that she should respect Zofia's choice.
In the next round, Kathy had dealt with the emotions and did her best.
However, the opponents were very smart. And they were stuck in a dilemma for a long time. In the end,
it was Reece who refuted the last point and won the debate.
Kathy was a little surprised. Their opponents almost won, but Reece suddenly turned the scale in favor
of them. All of a sudden, they won the debate.
"Reece, you're amazing!" The students all gave Reece a thumbs up.
Reece had contributed a lot to this debate.
Kathy also praised him, but she remained indifferent to Reece. After getting the trophy, she rushed to
the hospital.
She called Joseph on the way, and he had been waiting for her in his car.
Kathy sat on the passenger seat. "Zofia is in the hospital. Let's hurry over."
"Alright." Joseph frowned.
"She should be out of danger, right?" Kathy asked nervously.
Joseph had only just known Zofia had an abortion when Veronica asked him to get a doctor over.
But before that, Reece had arranged a doctor for Zofia.
"Yeah. But she should rest for at least half a month after the abortion."
After arriving at the hospital, Joseph brought Kathy to the ward. He didn't go in and just stood at the
door.
Veronica was also here with Zofia, but Zofia did not say a word.
Kathy walked closer and saw Zofia's pale face. Her heart ached for Zofia.
"You can go back. You don't have to be so nice. I'm fine." Zofia forced a smile.
"Zofia, why are you doing this?" Veronica had cried, and her eyes were red.
Zofia lowered her head and glanced at Joseph outside the ward.
"I'm a student. How can I have a child?"
"But you can go on to graduate school even if you're pregnant."
"I'm on an internship at the hospital. I just can't have this child. Don't worry. I know what I'm doing."
It was night. Veronica and Kathy did not stay for too long. Sonny was not in the ward because he was
still angry at Zofia, but Veronica called him.
Sonny didn't know Zofia got pregnant until she had this abortion. How could he not be angry?
However, Sonny was soft-hearted. He did not leave the hospital and stayed on the first floor.
He didn't go up to the ward until midnight.
Zofia was still up. She looked out of the window blankly. She did not even know that Sonny had come
in.
Suddenly, she sounded a familiar voice. "Zofia."
She slowly turned around.
There was no expression on her face. She used to smile brightly every time she saw Sonny.
"You don't want our child?" Sonny asked in a choked voice.
He thought the baby was innocent.
"Yes," Zofia said resolutely.
Sonny's eyes widened, and his face darkened.
He clenched his fists and walked closer as his eyes turned red.
However, Zofia looked as if she didn't notice his changes. She pushed him away as he approached.
"Sonny, we should break up," Zofia said calmly.
"What are you talking about?"
"I said we should break up." Zofia remained cold to Sonny.
Sonny was stunned and started trembling.
"No. I don't accept it!" Sonny roared as the veins on his fists bulged.
Zofia turned around and lay down, ignoring the heartbroken man.
However, tears ran down her cheeks when she closed her eyes.
After a long time, the sound of Sonny's footsteps died away. Zofia took a deep breath and took out her
phone to call her brother.
"Bertie, I remember everything. Don't lie to me anymore."
...
Kathy was still worried about Zofia. She waited in the car and stopped Joseph starting it.
She got out of the car when Sonny walked out in disappointment.
"Sonny, how is Zofia?"
"I don't know. We broke up."
"What?" Kathy was shocked. They were hitting it off recently, but now they broke up for a child?
"Did you dump her?" Kathy's face sank.
"No. It was her. She ... she wants to break up with me!" Then Sonny walked away coldly.
Kathy returned to the car. Joseph tried to comfort her, "We can come again tomorrow. Let's go home
now."
"I'm sorry to trouble you." Kathy sighed.
She had lectures tomorrow, but she had asked for leave. She wanted to see Zofia in the morning and
then went back to school.
"Don't worry so much about Zofia." Joseph said in a deep voice.
"She's my friend. I should worry about her." Kathy whispered.
"She was asking for it." Joseph frowned.
"What do you mean?" Kathy looked at him in confusion.
However, Joseph did not say anything else. Kathy felt that he was a little weird.
But she was too sleepy to figure out why.
The next day, Joseph brought her to the hospital. "You can go back to the hospital. I'll go to school
myself."
Kathy didn't want to trouble Joseph. He should go to work now.
"I'll wait for you."
Kathy knew that she couldn't persuade him, so she went directly to the ward.
After she left, Joseph's phone rang. It was Bertie.
Joseph picked it up with a frown. "Joseph, stay away from Zofia!"
