I become unemployed when I'm four months pregnant, and my husband asks that we become independent of each other in our marriage. We manage our own finances and pay for our own expenses. Even when I'm suffering from major blood loss during labor, he's unwilling to pay to save my life. My child and I both lose our lives. When I open my eyes, I find that I'm back to the day my husband asks that we become independent of each other. I readily agree. What he doesn't know is that I can morph into a seahorse and transfer the baby to his body so he can carry it to term.
View MoreI refused Bryce's request. So, he cursed at me vehemently while giving birth this time. Giving birth to eight children was very risky. It took him four days and nights. By the time it came to the eighth child, Bryce was exhausted. As a result, the eighth baby got stuck in the birth canal.My father had to use a scalpel to widen the birth canal, but this time, he hit a major artery. Consequently, Bryce started bleeding profusely. He was given a major blood transfusion, yet even that couldn't save his life. Soon, my father told me that Bryce was on the verge of death and asked me to say my goodbyes.I walked over to him, only to see his face that was filled with despair. He said weakly, "You did this on purpose to take revenge on me."I looked into his eyes and understood immediately. "Which point in time did you come back to?""During the birth of the second child."The moment he entered the current timeline, the intense pain almost knocked him unconscious again. He didn't unde
Although Bryce was a man, he was still in his postpartum recovery period. He was still so weak that when I gave him a light push, he fell to the floor.After Bryce fell down, he sat on the floor and started crying. I looked at his tear-streaked face and wondered if he remembered the mindset he'd had when he first insisted on splitting everything equally with me.I didn't feel sorry for him at all.After the postpartum period ended, Bryce wanted to divorce me. However, he was faced with the reality that it was easier said than done.Even if we got divorced, not only would I get custody of the child, but I would also get half of the cost of the house and the car. He would have to get back to work. In that case, he would have to spend money to hire a nanny. A somewhat decent nanny would cost more than 10 thousand dollars a month. With the car loan, house mortgage, and the nanny's salary combined, he would have to fork out over 20 thousand dollars every month. Before Bryce quit his
On the day the baby was due, Bryce lay in the delivery room, cursing in pain. During his pregnancy, his body had gradually changed. A small opening had formed on his belly for natural birth. Even so, the pain he endured was no less than that of a woman.After examining the baby in his belly, my dad straightened up and said, "The baby is slightly large in size, so a natural delivery might be difficult. It's best to go with a C-section."Bryce was sweating profusely from the pain. He demanded desperately, "Then hurry up and do it!"I intervened right away and said, "No, a natural birth is better. Babies born via natural birth are smarter."With his hands clutching the bedsheet, Bryce shouted angrily at me using every last bit of his strength. "Are you crazy? If we keep this up, I'm going to die!"I replied frostily, "Dear, a C-section costs a lot more than a natural birth. I'm only willing to cover half the cost of a natural birth. That's all I'll be paying for."Bryce was furious
Bryce gritted his teeth. "But I'm unemployed with no income now. Do you want to starve me and the baby to death?"Like what he once did, I appealed to his emotions and reasoned with him. "Dear, I'm insisting on splitting our expenses for your own good. My parents are different from yours. When they get sick, they'll need special medication, which is ridiculously expensive. I'm doing this to keep things fair.""Your parents are so rich. Paying for such medication is nothing to them," Bryce said, calculating everything swiftly in his mind. "Let's not split expenses for now. Why don't we wait until the baby is born before going back to it?"I gave him a sideways glance. "Bryce, do you think I'm stupid?"And so, I held my ground and firmly refused to rescind our agreement on splitting the expenses. There was nothing Bryce could do about it. He had no choice but to borrow money from everyone he could reach out to.That was when I found out that he was living paycheck to paycheck. In
Bryce looked awful. I could easily imagine what kind of shock he had gone through. Obviously, he had gotten the ultrasound to confirm whether what my dad and I had said was true. But in his anger, he forgot that ordinary men couldn't get pregnant. Even though he used a fake name, he had probably been surrounded by a bunch of doctors. When a seahorse brood pouch was implanted in a human male, it was essentially the same as giving them a uterus. Male pregnancy wasn't entirely unheard of among humans, since there were individuals who possessed both male and female reproductive systems.In short, male pregnancy wasn't exactly that rare of an occurrence for human doctors. What was truly extraordinary was that I had implanted four brood pouches into Bryce. This meant he had four uteruses!Owing to that, Bryce showing up at a top-tier hospital was like having a scientific research paper walk through the door. When the doctor saw that there was a living, breathing baby inside his bel
At first, Bryce thought there was something wrong with his stomach and wanted to go to the hospital for a check-up. I was afraid he might take the wrong medication and harm the fetus, so I suggested, "Why don't I take you to see my dad?"As soon as Bryce heard that he wouldn't have to spend any money, he immediately agreed. So, I took him to my dad's clinic.As soon as we arrived, Bryce was startled by the sight of a room full of men with big bellies. He whispered to me, "Linny, who exactly does your dad treat? These men all look so strange. They look like they're pregnant."They didn't just look pregnant—these men were indeed pregnant. My father was a renowned gynecologist in our seahorse community. Not only could he give birth himself and deliver babies, but he could also solve infertility issues.I didn't say anything and led Bryce into my dad's office. Soon, my dad said, "The baby is developing well."Upon hearing this, Bryce frowned deeply. "You must be mistaken. I have a
Bryce's expression soured considerably. "Linny, we're a married couple. Is it really necessary to split everything down to the pennies?"I flashed him a good-natured smile and asked, "Weren't you the one who said that we should split our expenses evenly to prevent conflicts between us?"Since Bryce had suggested splitting our expenses in the first place, he couldn't come up with anything to argue with me. He could only transfer the money to me as he was told.After completing the chores, I went to take a shower. I was currently 18 weeks pregnant, and my belly wasn't showing yet. Although pregnancy usually lasted ten months, I knew I would give birth after 38 weeks. So, next week would be the best time to transplant the baby. For that, I needed to implant the brood pouch into Bryce as soon as possible.Implanting the brood pouch was quite simple. I put on some sexy lingerie and sprayed on some perfume. As I stepped out of the bathroom, I saw Bryce working on a table on his compute
Bryce's smile froze. "You have parents? Why have you never mentioned them before?"Well, it was because my parents weren't human. I came from a family of seahorse beastmen. In our society, the male seahorses were the ones who gave birth. So, when I announced that I was going to marry a human and have a child with him, my parents kicked me out without mercy. They believed that I was committing an atrocious act.I replied, "I have too many siblings, so my parents usually just let us be. So, it's not necessary to split our expenses since I have parents too, right?"Bryce said to me, "Linny, I don't want money to cause any unhappiness between us in the future. I think splitting our expenses is still the better choice. Let's stick to that."And so, I pondered for a moment and suggested, "That's fine too, but verbal agreements don't hold any significance. We should put this in black and white."Bryce grabbed some paper and a pen and wrote down the details of our agreement swiftly. He se
I went back in time to the day I lost my job.On that fateful evening, I announced the bad news to my husband, Bryce Silverman. The moment he heard that I'd been dismissed, he immediately suggested we split our living expenses evenly. He proposed that each of us would manage our own income and pay half of our shared expenses."Don't worry, Linny. I promise I won't spend a penny extra of your money. I won't ask you to pay for what I'd already spent on you previously either," Bryce said.Bryce sounded so magnanimous when he said that. He spoke as if he had spent a lot of money on me. But in reality, we got married with nothing to our name. There were no wedding gifts exchanged, nor was there a wedding ceremony held.In fact, Bryce took out a loan to buy the house, and I paid for the renovations. After we got married, we split the mortgage and car loan payments equally. Since my job was easier and I had more free time, I paid for our daily expenses and utility bills. In addition, I di
