Chapter 1

I got pregnant at the same time as a doctor from another department.

But right after my NT scan, the head nurse came knocking at my door.

"The hospital is short-staffed. Management has a rule that only one woman can be pregnant during the same period."

"The slot goes to Dr. Harris this time. You need to get an abortion right away!"

I was stunned. "Dr. Harris and I aren't even in the same department. Our work doesn't conflict at all."

"Plus, I'm a nurse and she's a doctor. We're not even on the same shift schedule."

But the head nurse just stubbornly tapped on my desk.

"This is hospital policy. No one gets special treatment!"

"Either you abort the baby, or you transfer to logistics. Your choice."

Transferring to logistics meant no hope for advancement for the rest of my career. I'd be stuck making two thousand dollars in base pay.

My fingers clenched tighter and tighter.

I'd worked at this hospital for eight years. I was the hardest-working nurse on the front lines, winning excellence awards every single year.

And yet I wasn't even allowed to be pregnant.

I took a breath and looked calmly at the head nurse. "I agree to transfer to logistics."

Less than a week after I transferred, the department fell into complete chaos.
