Chapter 217: Like Phoenix From The Ashes
(Arata)
Karsten tried to speak to me again, but I was too heartbroken to listen. Hiding under the quilt, I refused to turn my head in his direction or communicate any further.
But I could hear his pacing in the room and knew he hadn’t left.
How was I even going to tell him?
I wasn’t even sure myself, and knew I had to go to a doctor to confirm first.
If I spoke to him, he would think I tried to trick him and somehow didn’t take the pill he left me.
Women used pregnancies to trap rich men, and he would assume I did something similar.
I waited for him to leave the room. Once I heard the door click shut, I reached for my phone.
With nervousness and anxiety raining over me in abundance, I typed in the search engine to figure out if one could get pregnant even after taking a pill.
The results shocked me. Pill taken within 12 hours of unprotected sex reduced the chances of getting pregnant by 97%; there was still a 3% chance of getting pregnant.
And if the pill is taken after 12 hours, then the chances of not getting pregnant get reduced to 89%. That was a whole 11 per cent window, and I fell in that one.
