Carefully covering the quilt for Hester, Austin sighed silently and slowly closed the door. There were still tears on his fingertips, which were not as warm as before. On the contrary, it was cold.
Standing at the door, he slowly exhaled a mouthful air. He didn't know what to say, but it didn't mean that he couldn't understand.
He knew why she was worried, but he could not relieve her feeling. Terence's attitude had been in a state of confusion.
And Melody was in a state of madness. It was hard to guarantee that she would do something to grab the child in the future or not. Women were complicated. No one could guess what they would do next.
"Hester, I won't let you get hurt again," Austin whispered and turned around to his room.
Hester, who should have already fallen asleep, was staring at the ceiling with her eyes wide open now. She tightened her grip on her body with grief.
Today, she was scared by Melody's state. Although she had been so ruthless before, she was rational after all. But today, she was completely in a state of anxiety, and any slight movement would make her angry.
Hester put her hand on her belly and gently stroked it. She couldn't help but burst into tears.
"Will Melody come and grab my child? What should I do?"
On the early morning of the second day, Hester stood in front of the mirror and looked at the dark circles at the bottom of her eyes, with a faint smile at the corners of her mouth. Last night, she fell into that dream again, but it seemed to be clearer and deeper than the previous times.
She ran out of the room nervously and slapped hard on the door of Austin's room. Tears streamed down her cheeks, she falling into boundless panic. She was afraid that the dream which was too real would become true.
"Brother Austin, come out. I have something to tell you!"
In a daze, Austin heard someone knocking at the door. He opened his eyes, hurriedly stood up and opened the door. He saw Hester crying and throwing herself into his arms.
He held her in his arms
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.
To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.
"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."
She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.
Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.
finished her words, she felt dizzy and fell to the ground.
"Call the doctor over!"
Terence quickly stepped forward and held her up. He turned around, walked quickly back to her room and put her on the bed. He took out the phone from his pocket and dialed Sheryl's number.
"Hello, Mr. Terence! What can I do for you?"
"I won't go to the company today. If you have any emergency, come to my home!" Looking at Melody's pale face, he was confused. Terence's tone was rare to have some emotion, but mixed with a trace of impatience.
Sheryl held the phone for a moment and restored as usual. She'd better not inquire about her boss's business and speak less.
"Okay!" Sheryl answered.
"What's wrong with her?"
He stood aside, looking at the family doctor carefully examining her body, frowning. He had always been impatient. It was his limit to speak until now.
"Mrs. Qi was just in a coma because of her physical injury and mental stimulation during the delivery. She is fine. Please rest assured, Mr. Terence!"
The doctor put away the stethoscope and put it in the box. When he looked up at the deep eyes of Terence, he felt a little uncomfortable.
"Okay!" Terence nodded coldly and looked at Melody with a complicated expression. He took a deep breath and stood aside without saying anything.
"Melody, what on earth do you want?"
