"No!" Catelyn roared almost instantly, slamming the table and standing up. "Quack doctors! You're all quack doctors! You couldn't find it out before, so this is probably another mistake!"Ceddy, I don't want to be examined here. Let's go to another hospital!"Her sadness was awfully tangible and hung in the air.Cedrick had a serious expression on his face. Seeing how agitated she was, he immediately hugged her to comfort her.Moments later, after making sure that Catelyn was no longer burning with intense rage, he looked at the doctor coldly and said, "If you dare to lie, you should know the consequences.""I wouldn't dare to lie to you, Master Cedrick! Your wife has an ectopic pregnancy, and it can't be delayed any longer. She needs to undergo surgery right away."Cedrick took a deep breath, suppressed the despair in his eyes, put his hands on Catelyn's shoulders, and looked at her. His voice sounded suppressed, making it appear extraordinarily deep."This pregnancy is ectopic
Cedrick paused as he caressed her lower abdomen, feeling the urge to keep her from entering the operating room. Eventually, he let her go."Go. I'll wait for you outside."Catelyn followed the medical staff into the operating room without hesitation.Everything was ready in the operating room. The nurse held the anesthetic in her hand, pointed to the operating table in front of her, and said politely, "Missus Mason, please untie half of your trousers, lie on the bed with your legs open, and I'll give you an anesthetic."Catelyn did not feel embarrassed at all when she was asked to unbutton her trousers, but she felt the urge to run away from the door.Looking at the word [Gynecology] on the doors of the operating room, she was lost in thought.Catelyn took off her trousers slowly and lay down on the operating table according to the doctor's instructions.She closed her eyes and kept telling herself, 'God has His plan.'The female doctor saw her accepting her fate and exchanged
Catelyn's actions were faster than her thoughts as she pressed the answer button without thinking any further."Cat? You're finally willing to answer my call!" Ezekiel was overwhelmed with surprise as he continued, "I was wrong. I shouldn't have kept it from you..."Catelyn pursed her lips, and after a long time, she said flatly, "I have an ectopic pregnancy, so you don't have to bother trying to abort my baby in the future.""Ectopic pregnancy?" Ezekiel's voice suddenly rose, sounding entirely baffled."Yes." Catelyn covered her face in pain and cried, "I'm in the operating room now, and I'm going to have surgery soon. Are you satisfied now?"Ezekiel remained silent for a while. "You're my daughter, so why would I feel better seeing you suffering? Are you sure that your pregnancy is ectopic, however? The report I got at that time showed that the gestational sac appears to be in the uterine cavity.""What did you just say?!" Catelyn clenched the phone tightly with her mind blown.
If it was shocking that her pregnancy was found to be 'ectopic', then finding out that everything was forged by Cedrick at this moment was no less than a catastrophe.'It was him after all…Dad didn't lie. It was Cedrick who's deceived me…'"If it wasn't for Master Cedrick's request, how would we dare make such a life-and-death decision? Madam, please believe me!" begged the doctor, still explaining herself.Catelyn stabilized her precarious body and sneered coldly, "If you violated your professional ethics as a doctor just because someone threatened you, what's the difference between you and an executioner?""I—I'm sorry…""Do you know why he wants to abort the child?""Master Cedrick didn't say anything. He only said that we needed to forge a report that said you have an ectopic pregnancy so you'd agree to remove the child surgically."Catelyn stretched out her hand to caress her lower abdomen. Her eyes were filled with determination, adamant in not letting him succeed regardle
It was not the woman's beauty that attracted Edwin.This lady, Noah Sinclair, was his first love.Due to Edwin's parents' tumultuous marriage, Edwin used to be rebellious when he was in his early twenties. To run from the quarrels of his parents, he went abroad to study alone.While abroad, he met Noah.She, too, was an exchange student, and they spent wonderful moments together while studying. Later, Sylvie told Edwin to return to America, and he brought Noah with him.He wanted to take her to meet her parents and marry her, but the moment Noah knew that he was the grandson of Granny Atherton, she incessantly asked him for money. At that moment, he accepted this due to his belief that men should earn money for their wives to spend.Unfortunately, she crossed the line.When he came home on one fateful day, he stumbled upon Noah having sex with a man 20 years older than her in the luxury suite he bought for her. According to Noah, she had no father growing up, so she longed to be
After a while, Edwin whistled indifferently and casually replied, "I only look at the results, and I don't want to know the process. Besides, I want to tell you that I'm married. Do you think I'm still pining after you?"'M—Married?!' Noah's eyes widened in sheer shock."You're lying to me so I'd give up. Many reporters stalk you the moment you leave your house every day. If you get married, how can there be no news?"She refused to believe he was married.Edwin sneered, full of anger. "Whatever floats your boat. Anyway, I have a wife.""Your family probably arranged for this, didn't they? You don't love her, right?" spoke Noah, rather sad and helpless. "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have left you, but I can't help it. Your father came to threaten me with my Mom's safety. If I hadn't broken up with you, my Mom would've died!"Eddy, I love you! The scene you saw in the suite years ago was fake. I spent a thousand dollars on that just to break up with you."Edwin clenched his fis
Cedrick had thought of staying at Atherton Manor so that he could take care of Catelyn.Oddly enough, after returning to the manor, Catelyn lost weight quickly over just a few days, and all the new clothes Joanne had bought for her looked too loose on her.Whenever she ate, she would only take a few bites before she would run upstairs and lock herself in the room, not allowing anyone to get close.This time was no different; Cedrick was locked out of the door.He knocked on the door repeatedly, hoping she would open the door to let him in. After returning from the hospital, she had been acting abnormally, shutting herself in the room all the time, and he had no idea what she was doing.After he finally got in, he noticed that her face was pale.He wanted to stay by her side all the time, talk to her, and make up for the pain of losing a son, but she always turned her back against him whenever he was before her, and she even rolled up the quilt and pretended to sleep.This time,
Catelyn feebly grabbed Joanne's wrist before she could run, whimpering, "No! Don't tell Cedrick! I didn't have a miscarriage at all; the baby's still here. It's Cedrick who wants to trick me into killing the baby..."Joanne's mouth widened in shock."W—What? Master Cedrick wants to trick you into killing off your child?"Joanne thought that Cedrick cared about her and the child the most, more than anyone else. The day he found out that Catelyn was pregnant, he was elated for several days. Even if he did not show it, everyone could tell that he was looking forward to the arrival of that child.There were several times she found Cedrick looking through books for a suitable name for the child."I wished that this was a lie, too…but it's all true. The doctor he bribed told me this. I don't have an ectopic pregnancy at all, yet he threatened the doctor to make me believe in that."Catelyn took Joanne's hand and pinned her last hope on her, her lips trembling slightly. "Listen to me. I
