Kana came up with a plan to kill Katherine by a medical cause, but it seemed like fate wasn't on her side. Katherine was released a couple of days after Pete saw her. The male nurse that Pete threatened told Nathaniel and Isla of a man being 'interested' of Katherine. They had her move to a different room on another floor to which only lasted for three days as Katherine awoke a few hours of being in her new room.

"Urgh," Katherine groan, placing her hand on her stomach
"Katherine!" Nathaniel shouted, running over to her
"Nathaniel, please be quiet for once in your life," Katherine croak
Nathaniel filled a cup of water and helped Katherine sit up and gave her water. He set the cup down and poked his head out of the door, trying to spot a nurse.
"Excuse me," Nathaniel said, waving his hand
"Yes?" The nurse asked, walking towards him
"My wife woke up and I don't know what to do,"
"Okay, sir. I'll go get your nurse," The nurse left and Nathaniel walked back to Katherine
"Wife, huh?" Katherine remarked
"Oh,uh…," Nathaniel scratching his neck, his face red
"I never remember you proposing to me or going to a courthouse," Katherine stated
"Well, um… I can make it happen," Nathaniel said, "W-wait, if only you want too…" His eyes widening
Katherine didn't say anything, she just stared at Nathaniel. Her mouth opened, but quickly closed when someone spoke.
"Ms. Lynch, you're awake. That's great," The doctor said, "How are you feeling?"
"Sore, but restless," Katherine stated
"Well, get you out of bed soon, but we need to make sure that you're fine," The doctor stated, Katherine nodded
The doctor and nurse wrote down Katherine's vitals and how she was doing.
"Oh, and congrats Ms. Lynch," The doctor said
"On what?" Katherine asked
"On your pregnancy," He said, "But you don't need to worry. We're taking precautions to make sure the fetus is healthy and for you not to have a miscarriage,"
"Oh, oh," Katherine's eyes widened
"I'll give you time to think," The doctor and nurse left
Katherine looked down at her lap and placed her hand on her stomach. A smile rested on her face, but disappear when she remembered what happened last time.
"So, what do you wanna do?" Nathaniel asked
Katherine looked over at him, "Are you going to kill my child?"
"What! No, no, no! Why would I kill my own child?" Nathaniel exclaimed, his eyes widening
"Is that why you said I'm your wife?" Katherine asked
"Katherine, don't change the question?"
"I just...thought…. you wouldn't want it because… um…," Katherine bit her lip, trying to hold her tears in
"I know you were pregnant but you lost the child. Did Prince Oslo harm you?"
"No, it was Ko. I-I don't know why he slept with me if he was… with… um… Kana,"
