She wouldn't be the first actress to use her title and popularity in order to secure a marriage into a wealthy family.

This opportunity was hard to come by, and she would be fool to let it pass.

“Moira, contact the media in secret and let them know that I will be visiting the gynecology and obstetrics department for an examination.”

Knowing the paparazzi, by this time tomorrow, everyone in the city would know that she was carrying Brian's child.

Given his status as a prominent figure in the business world, there was no way he would abandon her, not when he had eyes on him.

He would have no choice but to marry her in the end.

Inside Barlow's ward, Rosalynn had been chatting with him for a while, and was now feeling sleepy. She padded over to the spare bed to have a quick nap.

Barlow, on the other hand, was in so much pain that he couldn't even doze off.

He considered his options for a moment, then sent a message to Karina.

“Are you asleep?"

Her reply came in just a few seconds.

“Not yet."

Barlow's eyes twinkled with interest. He went into autopilot and proceeded to flirt with her.

“Is it because you miss me?"

No response came this time.

Barlow chuckled to himself as he typed, “Will you come and visit me tomorrow?"

*m afraid I am very busy,” Karina replied.

"You can't possibly expect your best friend to tend to me all the time, can you?"

“You're right. Fine, I'll take care of you tomorrow so that Rosalynn can go home and rest."

Barlow's face broke out in a grin. He got what he wanted.

"Ah, I'm so lucky to have two beautiful women taking turns to look after me.”

“Yes, you are a lucky man, indeed. Good night."
