Netizens Told Me to Run Away with My Baby Chapter 4
I was surrounded. I was scrolling through my phone, bored, wondering when Shaun would get here. All of a sudden, the entire hospital seemed to become restless and uneasy. The security scoured the entire hospital, floor by floor, until they eventually stopped in front of me. They put their hands behind their back, motionlessly surrounding me.Before long, Shaun ran over to me from the distance.I had never seen him look so flustered. He almost seemed haggard. His clothes had been messed up by the wind, and his tie was crooked. Even his usually neat hair was a little messy.He came to a stop in front of me and pulled me to my feet. “Nessa, why didn't you tell me you were pregnant? Why are you trying to abort our child?”His eyes were red as he stared at me fixedly. “Why?”He gripped my wrist so tightly I thought he would break it. I hissed in pain, instinctively trying to break free.Shaun misunderstood that to mean I was rejecting him, so he held on even tighter. He even p

Vicky pulled me into her arms and patted my back comfortingly. “Go ahead and cry it out, Nessie.”She wanted me to demand an explanation from Shaun, but I refused. I could not imagine him looking at me expressionlessly, his tone cold as he said, “Nessa Smith, I got sick of you ages ago.”Neither could I accept him lying to me with his usual look of devotion, insisting that there was nothing between him and that woman.The worst part — the part I really could not stand — was that I seemed to be that woman’s substitute…I ran away while pregnant again, hehe.This time, it was no longer a joke. With Vicky’s help, I ran away behind Shaun’s back, going somewhere he could not find me.Serenity City was thousands of miles away from Oceanine. He would never think to find me here.Hmph, now he could spend all his time with his precious love. I pouted. So much from trying to protect me by hiding the truth from me. Men were all such liars.Vicky came by to visit me every so often, brin

“Impressive, Nessa Smith.” He gritted his teeth angrily. “You ran away twice, and now you’re getting our kid a stepfather!”He could not hide the anger in his trembling voice. All I could think was, ‘Not bad, he found me in record time.’Ahem, but I digress.This was my first time seeing Shaun in three months. He was dressed up nicely, and he had even had his hair done.When I thought of how he said, “Don’t let Nessie know” back then, I got mad all over again.I said coldly, “What do you mean? My baby and I don’t have a home.”To my surprise, he pulled out our marriage certificate as though by magic. “Don’t forget, Nessa Smith. We’re legally married.”Was he crazy? Why would he carry our marriage certificate around with him?I just… I could not stand it when he did things like that. I wanted to cry, but a good woman knows what she’s worth. I could not turn back.Instead, I hugged Richard’s arm. “Then you’re right on time. Let’s get divorced, right now.“You wouldn’t get in th

He jabbed a finger at Richard. “I will not allow you to date him.”Wasn’t he being a hypocrite? What was with the double standards? How could he have his long-lost love as well as his wife and child, all at the same time?I was furious, demanding, “You won’t let me date anyone else, so why do you get to cheat on me while we’re married?“You know I’m pregnant, so why are you still keeping secrets from me?“When was the first time you lied to me? Was that photo just a meaningless memento?”Tears started flowing before I knew it. My voice hitched in my throat.‘Was it that fun to play with my heart, Shaun Lewis?’ I thought to myself. ‘Will our relationship of many years really lose out to a woman who came from nowhere? How do I know which of your words were true, and which were lies?’I wiped away my tears and opened the door, hoping for some time alone in my house.Shaun put his hand between the door and its frame, only frowning slightly when I slammed the door onto him. He did n

It was difficult at first, sure. I insisted on going to school, surviving off some meager social benefits and my part-time salary.I put everything into securing my future, and I knew that education was my only way out of poverty.I also knew that it was not my fault my parents treated me like that. The fault was all theirs.Things got better once I went to college. I met Shaun and Vicky, my lover and my friend.I was satisfied with my life. Now, I had a child on the way too. My future was looking brighter every day.Still, why was there such a difference between my sister and me? Why did my parents have another daughter to begin with?I did not know what to do, so I instinctively looked to Shaun for help.He patted my back comfortingly, lowering his head to meet my gaze. I could see how much his heart ached for me. “Nessie…”I wiped my tears and turned to Joanne. “I understand everything now. Please don’t visit me ever again.”She pleaded, “But why, Nessa ?!”I stood up, ho

Shaun’s perspectiveMy wife was not speaking to me anymore, because she thought I had a “long-lost love”.I was innocent! I swore on my soul that I was a model husband.I just happened to find a woman who looked a lot like my wife and decided to investigate her. The results of the investigation were not out yet, so I decided to hide it from my wife temporarily. That was all.As a result, I went home to find my wife missing.Not only had she taken her clothes away, she had even tossed my clothes to the floor and stomped all over them.Luckily, I had enough savings to buy her a small gift and coax her home. Before long, however, she started acting up again for some reason.She started running from the dinner table to the washroom to retch into the toilet.I was worried sick, so I asked her if she had eaten the wrong thing again. She rolled her eyes at me in response.What was that about? She thought she hid it well, but I knew she would order take-out when I was not home.The d

I knew that her parents were a great source of Nessie’s trauma, a scar on her heart.I did not know if the scar still hurt when touched. I did not dare to take the gamble.So I told Joanne Smith to keep her existence a secret from Nessie for now. She readily agreed.After that, I realized I was wrong.Nessie was strong and decisive. I should not make these decisions for her.She had the right to know, and I could not take that right from her while saying it was for her own good.No matter how well I knew her, I was not her. She understood herself best.I brought Joanne Smith home.My wife disappeared again, leaving the pale white divorce papers on the table, my clothes scattered all over the floor, and her cabinet hanging empty.This time, I could not find her so easily.I went to Vicky’s place multiple times.

Good news: I was pregnant.Bad news: I was not on talking terms with the father.How should I tell Shaun Lewis the news without embarrassing myself too much?I put a picture of the positive pregnancy test online and asked the netizens. There were plenty of friendly people on the forum, and soon I had a thousand comments in my inbox.[Send him the photo of the test and tell him the baby starved to death in your war of attrition][Tell him straight to his face: I am not alone! I have someone on my side!][Come back after five years with five genius babies][Tell him, “Come here and get on your knees. I have something to tell you.”]…Yep, they were really helpful. I sighed to myself as I watched the comments flood in. I knew I was right to believe in the inherent kindness of the Internet.A few of the comments stood out among the barrage.[Run away with the baby! I’ve been reading novels for an entire decade, so I have plenty of experience.][Go to a hospital and schedule an

“What is your problem, Nessa? Stop making a fuss and hear me out!”“You still think I’m the one with a problem?” I looked into his eyes and broke free from his embrace. The moment I got my feet back on the ground, I pointed at the door. “I don’t need your excuses. Get lost!”Shaun did not move, tapping away on his phone instead. So now he was not even bothering to explain?I looked at the face I loved for so long.Had he been tolerating me all this time? Was I always throwing tantrums and making a fuss? Was that how he thought of me?Shaun looked up and saw my dejected expression. All of a sudden, he shoved his phone into my face.The photo on the screen showed the SS Princess, a cruise ship I had been eyeing for a long time. It was gracefully docked at a harbor somewhere. “I bought the SS Princess, Princess Nessa.”I immediately fell silent, pouncing onto his phone. For real?! That ship was worth 18 million dollars!Hehe, that was one thing Shaun was good for.I held the ph

However, he was hiding something in a panic. When he heard my voice, he hastily hid the picture he was holding in the drawer.“What are you hiding, Shaun?”He avoided his gaze, his usually rational tone surprisingly guilty. “Nothing. Just some scrap paper.”“Shaun Lewis!” I was agitated. “You’re lying.”He would instinctively tap the things next to him with his fingers whenever he lied. Knowing his tell, I reached over to pull open his drawer.“I told you, it’s nothing!” He grabbed my hand and stopped me from touching the drawer. The next second, he locked it tight.“What could you possibly need to hide from me, Shaun?” I asked, hurt and confused.In all the years I had known him, he had never put his guard up against me. Even when the company was in crisis, he would lay all the documents before me and let me play with them as I liked.This time, he just kept avoiding my gaze without saying a word.I grew more upset by the second, so angry I wanted to snatch the key from his h
