Chapter 1438


    Only then did I recall that my baby was also affected by the incident. Iid a hand on my abdomen,


    and suddenly felt a sharp pain. I gazed at them, as if looking for an answer.


    My voice was hoarse. "My baby... is he alright?"


    Valerie suddenly burst into tears. Pedro sighed. Susan lowered her head and said nothing. Evan''s


    face was full of apology and guilt. I was dumbfounded by their reactions. I was not stupid. The


    answer was clear: the baby in my belly was gone.


    I was suffocating in my own despair. For a moment, my body began to tremble uncontrobly. I


    pressed my lips into a thin line and tried to restrain myself, but it only made me look like I was


    grimacing hideously.


    Valerie noticed my expression and quickly pulled me towards her. She had streams of tears on her


    cheek. "My child, don''t do this, don''t do this. You haven''t recovered yet. Don''t do this. Everything will


    be fine, please, I beg you. Don''t hurt yourself."


    I couldn''t control these instinctive reactions from my body. I clenched my fist, and my head was


    throbbing with pain. The pain was so bad that it felt like I was going to burst open.


    There was a cry of surprise. "She bit her tongue. Quick, stop her!"


    I didn''t realize that I was biting my tongue. My whole body was numb. In that instant, however, I


    suddenly felt that everything began to hurt. I couldn''t pinpoint where, but it hurt everywhere.


    Evan went to summon a doctor, and several doctors strode over. Seeing this situation, they also


    panicked and quickly said, "Give her a sedative, quick!"


    Meanwhile, the entrance of the ward crashed open, and someone pushed Valerie and Pedro aside.


    He hugged me tightly in his embrace and his voice was hoarse, "Don''t be afraid, I''m here."


    It was Hendrix. The pain in my brain subsided slightly, and I stared at him. We hadn''t met for a few


    days, but I could tell that he was already visibly thinner. Perhaps he was too preupied with his


    job in Oand.


    Probably because of the sedative, I began to feel a little drowsy. I wanted to open my eyes and


    have a good look at the man that I hadn''t seen for days, but no matter how hard I tried to keep them


    open, my eyelids gradually became heavier, and once again I fell into a deep sleep.


    Time passed very slowly, yet also very quickly. In life, there wasn''t much that remained the same


    forever. As the saying goes, "If you can endure losing everything, then you won''t have any regrets


    in life."


    It was probably true. When I came out of the hospital and looked at Asherton''s bright sun hanging


    above my head, I seemed to have begun my journey of eptance.


    Hendrix stopped the car and looked at me. "Is there anything that you crave? Let''s eat something


    first and then go home to have some rest."


    I nodded, thought for a moment, and said seriously, "Let''s have some seafood!"


    He slightly frowned, but still nodded in agreement.


    In the seafood restaurant, there were all kinds of aquatic animals being kept in the tanks. Seeing


    me staring at the tanks with a pale face, Hendrix started to get a little worried, "Let''s go somece


    else."


    I shook my head and said, "No need, I''m good." I looked at the animals in the water and said to


    Hendrix, "Is there live seafood here?"

    Hendrix frowned but still nodded. He found a seat for us and asked the waiter to serve us some live


    seafood.
