Chapter 944
I pursed my lips. "My child died in my stomach when I was just about to deliver."
The doctor pondered for a very long time before saying slowly, "Miss, judging from your condition,
you just need to take extra care and you should be fine-provided you''re not nning to have kids. If
you have ns to conceive, I''m afraid it''ll be hard. You’re not in good health to begin with, and now
that your uterus is bleeding, it can easily endanger both the mother’s and the baby''s lives. I''m sure
the doctors you visited previously have told you that you can''t have any more kids."
His words came down like a basin of cold water, soaking me all the way down to the soles of my
feet.
"The baby must have struggled when they were in your womb as the lining of your uterus is
wounded. Even if your eggs are fertilized, it’ll be hard for the fetus to survive in your uterus."
After a pause, the doctor continued, "Besides, at your age, whether or not you can conceive is
another question altogether. Even if you do manage to conceive, you may not be able to deliver the
child smoothly. My suggestion for you is to stop trying for a child and start taking care of your body."
I waspletely deaf to whatever he said after that.
When I stepped out of the hospital and got hit by the wind, I got even dizzier.
How absurd could life get? Just as one was filled with hope to start anew, reality gave one a hard
p across the face, making it impossible to move on.
"Wanda." A man''s voice rang out behind me.
I turned around and looked at the man in a daze.
It had been so long since Ist saw Matthew. He seemed much haggard and weary now.
He said to me in a deep and low voice, "Let''s talk.”
I frowned and replied coldly, "We have nothing to talk about."
He let out a self-deprecating chuckle. "Do you find me that loathsome?"
I pursed my lips and was not going to say anything else.
"You must be happy now that Zimmer Corporations has fallen into Theo''s hands and I''m being
investigated, right? I''ll most likely be prosecuted. That way, I won''t bother you anymore."
He said those words with a smile as if he were talking about someone else.
I pursed my lips. "What do you want to talk about?"
Matthew sighed softly. "Let’s find a ce to sit down

and talk."
I nodded. "Sure."
In the end, we sat down on a bench outside the hospital. It was not that cold today, hence it was fine
t o stay outdoors for a longer time.
Neither of us spoke first. It was only when I looked at him and noticed that he was looking at me did
I chuckle and ask, "Do you regret saving my life?"
He was a little stunned butter smiled. "I’ve never once regretted it. I''m even d I saved you."
I pursed my lips. "I don''t understand why Theo is suddenly getting rid of Zimmer Corporations. He
doesn''t want me to contact you or even ask any questions about Zimmer Corporations. He’ll get
mad and lose his temper if he finds out that I''m asking around."
After a pause, I continued, "What did you say to him at Cassey’s wedding?"
Matthew''s gaze was deep as he said slowly, "I never told you that the baby was still alive when he
was removed from your womb. Due to prolongedck of oxygen, he suffered from brain damage
and couldn''t survive for long."
My heart stopped for a moment, and then it began to hurt.
There was suddenly pain in his eyes. "I asked the doctor about the sess rate but the doctor said
that i t was almost zero. Do you know what it means when a doctor says that? He had directly given
a death sentence. The baby was ced in an incubator and I watched him from outside for two
days straight. I saw him open his eyes. They were huge and bright. They looked a lot like yours. I
figured he would be a charming young man when he grew up.”
After a pause, he continued, "I''m really sorry. The chances were too slim, so I chose to give up on
him while you were still unconscious."
I unconsciously clenched my fists so hard that my nails were digging into my flesh.
