My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 117 You're Pregnant

"No." The doctor shook his head.

Sydney was relieved.

That was good.

When she saw the doctor's serious expression, she thought she had some terminal illness.

"Then, what's wrong with me, Doctor?" Sydney looked at the doctor and asked again.

The doctor put down the checklist in his hand. "I'm not too sure. You should go to the obstetrics and gynecology department. Your condition is under the scope of the OB-GYN department."

The OB-GYN department? Sydney's mouth twitched.

She just had a stomach ache.

Why did she have to go to the OB-GYN department?

"Yes, my diagnosis is that you're pregnant, so I suggest you go there," the doctor nodded and answered.

Sydney's pupils shrank and her mind went blank with a buzz. It took a long time before she recovered to open her mouth and say with a hoarse voice, "I... I'm pregnant?"

"I believe so," the doctor replied.

Sydney's body swayed for a moment. She felt like the whole world was spinning.

Pregnant.

How could she be pregnant?

Sydney stood up, took the checklist, and walked toward the obstetrics and gynecology department at a hurried pace.

She had to get a detailed examination at the obstetrics and gynecology department.

What if she was not pregnant and the gastroenterology doctor was wrong?

Ding, the elevator opened.

Sydney stepped out of the elevator, looked around, and saw that the OB-GYN department was on the left. She turned and walked in that direction.

Julien had just finished making a phone call when he saw her figure disappear around the corner. He could not help but narrow his eyes.

Why was she still in the hospital?

"Julien."

Just as he was thinking, he heard someone calling out to him behind him.

He turned around to see a doctor wearing a white coat with a slightly wicked smile on his face.

"What's wrong?" Julien put down his phone and asked in a light voice.

Finn James pushed his glasses up. "Lyra is awake and wants to see you."

"Alright." Julien was relieved and quickly walked into the consultation room.

Finn looked at his back. His lips pursed for a moment before they curled up again, and he also walked in.

"Julien." Lyra sat on the sofa and looked at Julien blankly. "Julien, Finn said that I fainted. How did I faint?"

Julien frowned at those words. "You don't remember?"

Lyra shook her head and raised her hand to press on her temples. "I don't remember. I don't remember anything at all."

Julien lowered his head so no one could see the look in his eyes.

After a while, he asked again, "Then, do you remember what happened before you fainted?"

Lyra tilted her head to think and shook her head again. "I don't remember either. I only remember that we made up in the morning, and then I don't remember anything after that. Julien, what happened to me?"

She looked at him with some panic. "Why did I lose part of my memory? Do I have some kind of terminal illness?"

Julien did not speak and simply looked at her with a deep gaze as if he wanted to see through her to know whether she was telling the truth or not.

"Julien?" Lyra forced down the apprehension in her heart and called in confusion.

Julien's throat bobbed slightly and he said with an emotionless tone, "Do you really not remember anything?"

This time, Lyra did not speak. To the side, Finn opened his mouth to say, "She doesn't remember anything."

Julien's face changed slightly.

He might doubt Lyra's words, but not Finn's words.

Finn James was not only his friend, but also a reputable surgeon, so it was impossible for him to lie.

"What's going on? How did Lyra lose her memory?" Julien stared at Finn.

Lyra also looked at Finn with great interest.

Finn took his hand out of the pocket of his white coat and scratched the back of his head. "About that... Let's talk about it outside."

"Can't I know as well?" Lyra pouted unhappily.

Finn smiled at her. "It's better if you don't know. Let's go, Julien. We'll talk outside."

Julien hesitated for two seconds before nodding in agreement. Then, he went out first.

Finn followed behind.

The moment he went out of the door, he suddenly turned around and winked at Lyra.

Lyra's lips curled and she nodded.

After receiving her response, Finn turned around and closed the door to his consultation room.

"Tell me. What's going on?" Julien stopped and asked in a low voice.

Finn took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, shook one out and handed it over. "Want one?"

Julien did not even look at it. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Finn knew he did not want it and took the cigarette back. He lit it himself and took an elegant drag. "Lyra has schizophrenia."

"What?" Julien's eyes widened.

Finn picked the cigarette ash. "To be precise, she's not just schizophrenic. She has a dissociative personality disorder. She has a dark personality type. As the name implies, it's a personality that does bad things."

Julien clenched his fists. "How could she have a split personality?"

Finn exhaled smoke. "A split personality is only developed by a great stimulation. Lyra didn't have it before and only got it after she woke up. Do you remember? When Lyra woke up and learned that you were married, she almost turned back into a vegetable. I'm guessing that the personality was created at that time."

When Julien heard this, his heart contracted violently.

Lyra's split personality was caused by his marriage to Sydney!

"I did a little research earlier." Finn put out his cigarette. "Lyra's dark personality has a great hostility toward your ex-wife. It's probably because your ex-wife stole the position that originally belonged to her."

Julien frowned somewhat unhappily. "Sydney has nothing to do with it. I was the one who didn't refuse her back then."

In the final analysis, the greatest cause was because of him.

Finn's glasses glinted. "Julien, are you defending your ex-wife?"

"Enough. We're talking about Lyra now. Why are you asking about that?" Julien pursed his lips somewhat impatiently.

Finn looked at him steadily for a couple of moments before smiling. "You're right."

“Does Lyra's dark personality only appear when she sees Sydney?" Julien asked.

Finn shrugged. "How would I know about that? But generally speaking, it'll appear when she's threatened. Maybe your ex-wife did something to Lyra in the past that caused her dark personality to come out."

"That's impossible!” Julien subconsciously replied.

Finn's eyes narrowed for a moment. "Julien, you're clearly defending her."

"I'm not defending her. It's that there's simply no way she would've done that," Julien said coldly.

His intuition told him that Sydney did not do anything.

"Fine, fine, if you insist." Finn pressed his hand, and then his tone grew heavy. "It should be the first time this personality appeared, so Lyra only lost her memory of this period. I'm afraid that if this continues, this personality will come out very often."

"Can it be cured?" Julien looked at him.

Finn nodded. "In medical history, there are many cases where people suffering from DID end up with fused personalities. Lyra's split personality has only been born for a month or so, so the possibility of fusion is very high."

"How would that work?" Julien asked in a low voice.

Finn pushed his glasses. "It's simple. Stay with her more and try to make her happy. Don't let her see your ex-wife, especially the scene of you and your ex-wife together. As long as you don't stimulate her, her subpersonality will not emerge and it'll fuse with the core personality over time."

Although it felt a little unreliable, Julien still took note of it. "Alright."

"Well then, I'll get back to work. I just came to Mediana and I'm very busy." Finn patted Julien's shoulder and walked away.

Julien stood in place, looking at the door in front of him with his thin lips pursed into a straight line.

He never thought that Lyra would be stimulated until she developed DID. It seemed like what she did to Sydney in the past month or so was influenced by this alternate personality.

That was why Lyra's words and actions when she woke up were so different from what was written in the letter.
