004: I don't make mistakes

Ivan immediately embraces Iris in his arms. Autumn ought to raise her voice but she felt a lump against her throat.

Her eyes met with the doctor, he scornfully glances at Ivan, she could tell he was in love with Iris.

"I love you so much." Ivan tells Iris and that finally broke Autumn. A tear stream down her sockets.

Autumn could recall by memory how many times she had begged this man to love her. She always thought he was incapable of saying it to her or any other woman. How deluded she really was, Ivan was never incapable of ever saying it, he just didn't care to say it to her. He did not love her and just finally coming to terms to it was painful, it was as if Ivan had slapped her in the face.

Why did she even fall in love with this man? Why had she agree to marry him. If only she didn't spend that drunken night with him she wouldn't be in this situation.

"Ivan." Autumn calls him, he turns his back sealing his once tender gaze with an icy stare.

"What are you still doing here? You might as well look for the actual father of that bastard growing in your stomach since you have the time to slut around." Autumn's eyes darkens, the words Ivan had said hit the the nail. She expected tears but they were none. She hesitated if Ivan would even listen to her. But she had to try.

"I am pregnant with your baby Ivan, I believe something is wrong with this hospital results and I'll rather have another doctor run a test." Autumn pauses watching the light panic in Iris's eyes.

"If the baby claims to still not be yours I'll disappear from the face of the earth." Autumn bargained with Ivan, his brows arched in curiosity. He saw the little flames of hopes that were dying, ignited. Remorse washes over him a bit but then he remembers how she drugged him and slept with him twelve years ago. If she had not taken advantage of him, he wouldn't have dreamed of being engaged to her.

"Fine." Ivan tells her. "Run another test in another hospital, it will still give you the same results." He Informed her.

"What if she forges it Ivan, these days women like her forges fake pregnancy test and traps the man." Iris says as Ivan stares at Iris long enough.

"I'll take her there." Ivan suggested, Autumn's ears perked up, she hadn't expected him to take part in the process but if he did follow her he could see up front that the child is his.

Ivan walks away as Iris followed behind him, trying to change his mind. Dr Dexter glares at Ivan's back before returning his attention back to Autumn. He smiles at her pacing up his steps towards her.

"I advise you abort the baby Miss Dawson." Dexter smuggly informs her.

"And why would I do that Doctor Dexter are you afraid that you made a mistake and your job might be in the line?" Autumn could not hide her disdain for the man in the white coat.

"Oh, I don't make mistakes. Your baby has a high chance of being still born so either way even if you prove my test are incorrect you can't still have it." Autumn felt as if her ears were ringing.

She chuckled, her eyes twitching. "You think I'll believe that crap? My baby is healthy and alive and after I get the actual results I'll reveal the truth and whatever you're planning with Iris." She threatens him and immediately walks away leaving the hospital.

The next day Autumn gets up immediately. She looks at the opposite side of bed and reminece on the earlier stage of her marriage although Ivan never did pay her much attention. He was what you could say present but after two years she rarely saw him and he only ever came home because his father was hell bent on him giving him an heir.

Autumn wasn't barren, she was very fertile but Ivan would always force her to take contraceptives but because he was too busy with his wedding to Iris he had forgotten to shove one of them down her throat and that's how she got pregnant.

Autumn gets on her feet, feeling weird. She rubbed her flat stomach, try to make sense of the weird feeling. She shrugs it off and goes to make breakfast. Her maid walks up to her in cold sweat and hands her breakfast.

"G-Good morning Mrs A-Atumn." The maid greeted looking disturbed.

"Are you okay Felicity?" Autumn asked as the maid nods. Felicity was new to the Ashton residence. The last maid quit two months ago for some weird reason but given that time, Felicity should have had enough time to settle down into the family.

"Then have you eaten? Take a day off okay. My husband and I will be going to the hospital as a couple to check on the baby." Felicity moods turn sour as she watch Autumn happily sip her tea.

"Miss Autumn, I'm sorry." Felicity begs, Autumn archs her brows, before she could question Felicity blood slowly drip from her nose and down to her mouth.

A reaction causes her to cough up blood as well and her vision slightly blurred by the second.

Autumn looks at Felicity with tears in her eyes. "what did you do to me?" She sobbed holding her stomach. She immediately gets up and tries to run to get her cellphone but her kness buckle up and in a violent thud, her body plopped to the floor.

Her nose was burning and every single feeling in her body suddenly begin to numb. She hears the maid walk behind her and pierce a sharp object at the back of her throat.
