The scene in the hospital room left Pearl feeling helpless.


    ude was standing amid shattered ss, refusing to move.


    "Why do you keeping here?" Sabrina was visibly upset, her face flushed with anger. "I told you I don''t want to see you. Don''t you get it?"


    "I..." ude didn''t n on leaving. He wanted to go closer and hold her trembling hand.


    "Stay away!" Sabrina was furious. She couldn''t believe how stubborn he was. "I''ve told you I don''t love you. We''re only friends with benefits. Don''t you understand that?"


    "Sabrina, don''t you think that''s very disgusting?" ude ignored the fact that he should be gentle with a pregnant woman and spoke his mind. "You say you''ve never loved me, huh?" "Yeah, I''ve never loved you."


    Sabrina gripped the nket tightly, trying to stay calm. "I''ve told you over and over. I wish you''d understand our situation. I even left the country to avoid you. Isn''t that clear enough?" "I don''t believe you. Then why are you having my child?"


    At the mention of the baby, Sabrina sneered in disdain. "ude, who told you I wanted to trap you by having your child? Do you really think I''d use the child to make you stay with me? It''s just a child. My family can look after it.


    "Besides, Mister ude, do you really think the child is all that matters? That you want to bring it home?"


    "You know that the baby isn''t the one I care about."


    But Sabrina seemed to miss his point. "Or is it someone who can have your children? I''m sure there''s a long line of women for that—"


    "How could you say that!"


    "Don''t you get what I''m saying?"


    Then, she looked away from ude

    ude clenched his fists, his knuckles popping loudly.


    "Don''t just stand there. Do you want me to show you out?"


    It was clear Sabrina wanted him gone. Then, the door mmed shut loudly, almost scaring her.


    ude had left.


    Sabrina calmed herself down and then noticed Pearl watching her closely.


    "Why did you lie?"

    "Yeah... Anyway, let''s not talk about him. Did youe to visit me, Miss Pearl?"


    Sabrina and Pearl weren''t close, but Sabrina was touched that Pearl had risked herself to save her.


    And as for ude... she preferred not to mention him.


    "Yeah, Esther asked me toe and visit you. I came because I happened to be free. By the way, where''s Esther?"
