Chapter 199


    “Please forgive me, Lily. If my sister finds out I’ve said such bold things to you, she’ll disown me. I’m


    begging you!”


    Seeing him use the victim card, I figured he must be in a tight spot. I nned to tease him initially, but


    since he was trying so hard to fake it, I thought it was only fair that I y along too. “You don’t have to


    do this. Your sister and I are friends. I won’t even work things out with you for your sister’s sake, but


    this will be thest time.


    “Don’t worry. I will no longer act evil!”


    Having no intention of dealing with this clown who had no self respect or character, I snorted inwardly


    and turned to Carson. “How is Jolene?”


    “The surgery ended and she was sent to the intensive care unit. Chief Channing says she’s not in good


    shape so they should keep her under observation for 24 hours to see how things go.”

    “Oh, how did that happen? When Jolene finds out she lost the child, how devastated would she be?” I


    let out a long breath. “She did so much for the child. As a woman, it hurts me just to think about it. Why


    are we cursed with a life of misfortune?”


    Carson walked over and patted me on the shoulder. “Don’t be sad, dear. Everything will be fine!”


    This shameless asshole can say it so easily. In a situation like this, it is the women who always


    suffer. Did he think it was that easy to put everything back together?


    I didn’t say it out loud, but I thought it was strange; how was Carson so calm?


    Since he walked in here until now, I’ve paid close attention to him. The child in Jolene’s belly was his


    beloved child, and he had high hopes for the child. I thought there would be at least a hint of pain on


    his face.


    However, I was wrong. There was no sign of pain on his face. Was he good at hiding it or didn’t he feel


    sad? Compared to how he freaked out when I lost my son, he seemed perfectly fine after what


    happened with Jolene.


    The fact that he was so calm that he couldfort me was really scary.


    In just a few days, two children were lost. No one could have handled it with such a strong front. It was


    strange how Carson was able to act as if nothing had happened.


    Later, my mother-inw and Victoria arrived together. Compared to Carson’smon sense, my


    mother-inw was unable to hide her emotions. As merciless as she was to Jolene outside the


    operating room, she had high hopes for the child in her womb.


    The moment she walked into the hospital room, she sat up without saying a word. I started: “What


    happened, mom? You are sick? Why do you look so downhearted?”


    “No, I’m fine.” She forced a smile.


    “You don’t look too good. Why don’t you call a doctor to take a look at you? You can’t really be sick, can


    you? I heard that there was a mother-inw who was furious after her daughter-inw had a


    miscarriage and ended up bing seriously ill,” Victoria expressed her concerned opinion.


    “Aren’t they two separate matters?” Isabe said suddenly. “When Lily had a miscarriage, I don’t think


    Mrs. Boyer was so devastated. She was talking andughing.”


    After hearing this, the look on Carson’s face immediately changed and he looked at his mother in a


    serious manner. “Mom, are your stomach problems back?”
