The doctor had mistakenly assumed Gale was the father of the child Lisa was carrying.Before Gale could clarify, Lisa said, "He's not the child's father, so I can make the decision myself. Doctor, please arrange for the abortion."Hearing Lisa's firm stance, the doctor began to respond, "Alright then, I...""I am the child's father. What if I don't agree to the procedure?" A voice interrupted the doctor.With those words, a tall figure appeared in the doorway.Lisa stared in disbelief as Terry approached her. He was dressed in a simple white shirt and black trousers. His hair was slightly disheveled, and his shirt collar was crooked. His appearance indicated that he had been in a rush to come here.Terry looked at Lisa lying on the hospital bed. He had intended to contact her that morning to share that they could finally be together and to reveal everything about the past!Yet, he hadn't expected to hear from Gale about her accident and then arrive to find her requesting an abor
"But... ""It's okay, Gale. Let me have a word with him. I'd like to make some things clear to him," Lisa interjected.Hearing that, Gale finally walked away. However, before leaving, he couldn't help but tell Terry, "Mr. White, Lisa hasn't fully recovered yet. If you have anything to say to her, please be civilized. Don't grab her."Terry completely ignored Gale. His eyes never left Lisa.Letting out a sigh, Gale eventually left the hospital room.Now, only Lisa and Terry remained in the room."Are you really getting an abortion? You're so desperate to cut ties with me?" his cold voice filled the room."Yes," she took a deep breath and replied firmly."You won't even give me a chance now because I broke up with you in the past when you were severely injured?" he questioned."Since we already broke up, why should we get back together? The baby will only become a burden," she stated.A pang of pain flickered in his eyes. She had no idea how much he looked forward to the baby.
She reminisced about the playful conversations they used to have, teasing each other about the future. "Terry, do you think we'll still be kissing like this when we're old and gray? Would we ever get tired of kissing?" she asked. He replied with tenderness, "We'll never get tired of kissing. Even when we're old, I'll still keep kissing you. I'll continue to kiss you until the moment we close our eyes and leave this world."But... that would never happen now. It was already impossible five years ago, and it was certainly impossible now.Lisa didn't resist or push him away. She allowed Terry to deepen the kiss.To her, it felt like a goodbye kiss. She was bidding their relationship goodbye.When the kiss eventually ended, Lisa heard Terry's hoarse voice pleading with her, "Lisa, you still love me, don't you? Do you have any idea how badly I've wanted to kiss you like that?"After five long years, he could finally touch her again without experiencing extreme pain."Lisa, listen to
He faltered, leaning against the edge of her bed for support. It seemed as though he lacked the strength to stand on his own."Am I that unworthy of your trust?" he asked weakly, his eyes filled with profound pain.The pain looked so intense that it tugged at Lisa's heart, despite her decision to sever all ties with him. She couldn't help but feel for him.But she reminded herself that it’s all a lie. Even if he had some lingering feelings for her, she's had enough. It's over between them. She's tired of being tricked by him again and again."I'll never believe a single word you say again," she heard herself say."Are you sure?" His eyelashes trembled, and his cold fingertip brushed against her lips. "Are you sure you'll never regret getting an abortion and cutting all ties with me?"She felt her lips grow cold, as if his touch froze her blood. "I'll never regret it."No, she would never regret it. She already made up her mind when she was in the emergency room.And the baby, a
Upon receiving a call from their daughter, Lisa's parents rushed to the hospital. They found Lisa lying in bed with an IV drip attached to her hand."What happened? Why are you in the hospital? Is there a problem with the baby?" Lisa's mother asked anxiously.After all, the hospital Lisa was currently in was the top maternity hospital in the city that had many renowned experts in the field."I need to stay in the hospital for a few days. I got into a car accident this morning, and the baby's condition isn't looking too good," Lisa explained."A car accident?" Lisa's parents were shocked. "You had a car accident this morning, and you're only telling us now?!" It's already 4 PM.Lisa's parents immediately asked how serious her injury was. They were relieved upon learning that she only got some bruises from hitting the roadside greenery."What about the baby?" Lisa's mother asked."It's not doing too good. The fetal heart rate is weak, and there's a risk of miscarriage at any momen
"We already have one foot in the grave. Gossip isn't gonna hurt us. We just want you to be happy," Lisa's mother said, her eyes red with emotion.By giving birth out of wedlock, Lisa would be choosing a difficult path for herself. Tears welled in Lisa’s eyes. Over the years, she had done a lot of things to make her parent's worry. She hadn't been able to repay their love and support.Lisa's father looked at his daughter and said seriously, "Are you sure you won't regret it? Raising a child isn't as easy as raising a pet. Your life will become very difficult."Lisa took a deep breath, her resolve firm. "I've made up my mind. I won't regret it. As long as the baby allows me to be its mother, I won't give up on it.""Alright, if you want to keep the baby, then do it. Our family has no problem raising a child!" Lisa's father said. Since his daughter had made up her mind, he, as her father, would protect both her and the unborn child!Lisa couldn't hold back her tears."Don't cry, h
"You didn't ask Lisa?" "Lisa didn't want to talk about it, so didn't push her," Serenity thought for a moment and said, "Jack, can you find Terry for me? I want to ask him what happened.""You're always so concerned about Lisa," he said softly."She's my best friend." Without Lisa, she wouldn't be alive."What about me? Do you care more about me or her?" Jackson leaned closer, his captivating eyes filled with both charm and desire.Although he knew that Lisa held a special place in Serenity's heart, he couldn't help but wish that he was the person Serenity cared about the most. Even if he couldn't have her all to himself, he hoped to have the biggest share of her heart.He was greedy, but only towards her."Don't tell me you're getting jealous again?" she asked. "You're my husband, and Lisa's my friend. There's no need to compare!""That's right, I get jealous even over something like this. I'm so stupid, right?" With shuddering eyelashes, he lowered his gaze and helped her fa
"Alright, I'll go with you," Jackson said. Their car thus made its way towards the Solaria Airport.Upon their arrival, Serenity found Terry in a VIP waiting room, dressed in a black trench coat and carrying a black suitcase."You're leaving Solaria?" Serenity asked, slightly breathless from her hurried arrival with Jackson after learning the VIP waiting room's location."Is there a problem?" Terry responded indifferently. "I came here for business, and now that it's taken care of, of course I'm going home.""What about Lisa?" Serenity questioned anxiously. "Are you aware that Lisa is in the hospital right now...""So? What does that have to do with me?" Terry coldly cut her off, showing no concern."You...!" Serenity walked up to Terry, raised her hand and delivered a resounding slap to Terry's face.Slap!The sound reverberated in the VIP waiting room, fortunately devoid of any eyewitnesses due to it being a private room.Terry stared at Serenity with a chilling intensity, e
