Chapter 78
Herbert‘s POV
Be was very agitated when she learned that our child was dead.
I had called a doctor. The doctor injected sedatives into Be‘s body to calm her down. Soon, she fell
asleep. The ward was very quiet at night, and everything outside could be heard clearly.
When I learned that our child was dead, I was also very sad and broke down. After all, it was the first
child of Be and I. I have a lot of expectations for this child. I also imagined the happy life of the three of
us. But now, everything was destroyed. I sat by Be‘s bedside and looked at her, who waspletely
asleep. My mood was veryplicated I clearly knew that I love her. Seeing her so ufortable, I felt
sorry for her. But I love her so much but the man in her heart doesn‘t seem to be me. When she was at
her most ufortable state, she only remembered Hank. I was clearly her husband, and I was the
father of the child, but she had asked someone to call a stranger here! Was Hank better than me? Why
did Be care about him and not me? At this moment, I clearly knew that the man in Be‘s heart was
Hank, but I was still worried about her. This was not like me!I should be free and easy. Since she didn‘t
care about me, I should give up on her. After all, losing me was her loss.” But I couldn‘t do it! I had no
way to leave Be, even if she didn‘t care about me! “Miranda, go back and rest.” I said.
“Mr. Wharton, you need to rest.” Miranda said.
“You can rece me tomorrow morning.” After I finished my words, I lowered my head.
I didn‘t want to leave until I saw Bepletely safe.
Miranda took her things and left the ward.
I reached out to hold Be‘s hand, and the beautiful memories between us surfaced in my mind. And she
used to care about the rtionship between Caroline and I very much. Perhaps, at that time, she had me
in her heart? I looked at her and asked, “Why did we be like this?” I spent the whole night with
Be. Until the next morning, the doctor said that Be‘s situation had eased. I informed Be‘s mother
and sister, and then left the hospital after giving some instructions to

Miranda
Be‘s POV:
With thepany of my family, I was in a better state. At least I wouldn‘t be excited anymore. But I was
still in a bad mood. I didn‘t want to talk. I stayed in the hospital for seven days, and in a blink of an eye, it
was the day I was discharged from the hospital.
Miranda was packing the things. Joey peeled an apple for me to eat. “Thank you.” I was eating an apple
numbly. Joey asked, “Why isn‘t Herbert picking you up from the hospital?” “Maybe he‘s very busy.” I
smiled helplessly. “No matter how busy he is, you should have time to pick him up. You stayed in the
hospital because you gave birth to a baby for him.” Joey said discontentedly. I didn‘t answer. Instead, I
turned to Miranda and said, “Miranda, you can take a taxi and leave. Joey will send me back.” “Then I‘ll
leave it to you, Miss Joey.” Miranda smiled at Joey and left with her things. “This Herbert is too inhuman,
isn‘t he? You‘re still his wife!” As soon as Miranda left, the dissatisfaction in Joey‘s voice became even
more obvious. “Don‘t say that. I don‘t want my mother toe here today because I don‘t want her to
worry about me. I‘m with Herbert just because of this child. Now that the child is gone, I have nothing toContent ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.
do with him.” My tone was calm, but the emotions in my heart were veryplicated. Yes, our only
involvement was gone. He would soon propose a divorce, right? Caroline was still waiting for him.
Joeyforted me. “You don‘t have to think about anything now. The most important thing is to take
good care of your body. Your health is the most important thing.” “I understand.” I nodded.
Joey helped me out of the ward. When I was about to leave the hospital, Joey wrapped a thick scarf
around my neck and straightened my coat before letting me out. Out of the gate of the hospital, a young
woman in white fur came over. I wanted to ignore that woman, so I grabbed Joey‘s hand and was about
to leave. But the other party refused to let me go and blocked my way. “Mrs. Wharton, you don‘t
recognize me?” The other party was all smiles, like a beautiful flower. I said, “How can I not remember
my husband‘s ex–girlfriend clearly?” She must have known that my child was dead, so she came here on
purpose today? This was definitely not a coincidence. “I need to correct it. Herbert and I are still in a
rtionship, he had never stopped loving me.” Caroline raised her chin, her eyes full of confidence, and
of course full of provocation. Although I‘ve been lying here for seven days, and I knew that it‘ was
impossible for Herbert and I to continue, but Caroline‘s words still hurt my heart “I‘m not interested in
what‘s going on between the two of you. However, I need to remind you that

19020 right now, I‘m still Mrs. Wharton!” What I meant was very obvious. Their rtionship could only be
regarded as an extramarital affair. Since I had not divorced him, she was the third party. Caroline
continued to stop me and said sarcastically, “Because your child has just died, he can‘t bear to abandon
you immediately. Do you really think that he has feelings for you? What a joke. You should propose a
divorce, so that you can avoid embarrassing yourself!” Normally, I would have definitely quarreled with
her, and I would never show my weakness. But I just went through an operation and the pain of losing a
child. I was still very weak. I didn‘t have the strength to argue with her. Joey stepped forward and pushed
Caroline on the shoulder. “Are you Caroline?” “Who are you?” Caroline sized Joey up. “Who am I? I‘m
your grandma!” Joey reached out and pped her in the face. “Why did you hit me?” Caroline
questioned as she covered her face?
“Why? Because you‘re the mistress? How dare you seduce someone‘s husband? This world is getting
more and more outrageous. How can a mistress be so arrogant!” Joey‘s voice was so loud that people
who came in and out looked at her. I stood aside and said nothing. I was grateful to Joey in my heart.
Caroline argued, “I‘m not a mistress! Herbert and I met and loved each other first. She wasn‘t even there
when we were in love!” Joey sneered and said, “ording to you, can all the ex–girlfriends in the world
destroy a married family?” “You...” Caroline could not say a word. Then, Joey walked with her hands on
her waist and shouted, “Everyone,e and have a look. This is the most shameless b*tch in k City,
who seduced my friend‘s husband and ruined her family. My friend was discharged after giving birth to
the baby, and she came here to block our way and started cursing here! She has gone too far!” In that
moment, many people gathered around, and most of them looked at Caroline with contempt. Caroline
turned around and was about to leave.
My gloomy mood eased a little. At this time, two men in ck coats walked up the stairs.
Herbert, why was he here? During the seven days I was hospitalized, he came here when I woke up
once. I haven‘t seen him since then.
I didn‘t expect him to pick me up from the hospital today. He was still very cold, especially when he wore
a ck fur coat, which made him look more noble and indifferent in the crowd.
Caroline immediately threw herself into his arms, which stung my eyes. I turned my head and didn‘t look
at them. I only heard her aggrieved voice. “Herbert, you‘re finally here I was beaten by them!” Oh, her
acting was really good.

I still didn‘t look at them. I continued to listen to them, and then I heard Herbert say, “What are you doing
here?” “... I heard that Be was discharged from the hospital today, so I came to see her. Who knew...
that they would hit me.” By the time she said this, Caroline had already cried. She sounded very
aggrieved and distressed.
This woman! It was obvious that she was the one who caused me trouble first, but now she said
something like that to Herbert.
I didn‘t exin immediately. I just looked at Herbert. I really wanted to know what he would do!
