Second Chances Don't Come Easy Chapter 67
After speaking, Russell didn't stand up but maintained the bowing posture like Hadden, quietly waiting for Mitchell's response.After a long while, Mitchell finally said slowly, "I accept your apology."Russell and the others let out a collective sigh of relief at his words. "Thank you," Russell said, quickly tugging at Annie, who was still kneeling on the ground. Annie reacted and said repeatedly, "Thank you. Thank you.""I'll take Annie back for reflection now, so we won't disturb you any longer."Soon, Russell led the group of four out and left the Warner Residence.…In the car, the faces of those who had just appeared grateful darkened in an instant.Looking at Warner Residence receding behind them, Russell had a fierce look in his eyes. This was far from over!Meanwhile, back at Warner Residence, Sophie watched as Russell and the others left, and a hint of worry flashed in her eyes."Is everything alright now?" she asked.Sophie recognized a simmering temper beneath

A few days ago, Xavier had suddenly received a call from Sophie, saying that she wanted him to help her investigate the ingredients of some medicine.Xavier had been shocked, as he was afraid that she had taken some bad medicine by mistake.When Sophie mentioned that the herbal medicines had been prescribed at a legitimate hospital, he felt somewhat relieved.But if that was her medication, why wouldn't she know what it was for?Moreover, her frequent hospital visits in recent days only fueled Xavier's concern."I'm fine. It's just that my family got this medicine, but they refuse to tell me what it's for. So I'm a bit worried if I might have contracted some serious illness," Sophie said, half-truthfully.Xavier's expression became serious. "Don't worry. I'll have someone check it out right away."After saying that, he seemed to think of something. He hesitated and said, "Don't overthink it. Maybe it's just..."Sophie waved her hand and smiled. "I'm fine, Xavier. Don't worry."

How could Mitchell tell her such a cruel truth when he knew how much she longed for a child of her own?Sophie's figure swayed, and she felt her vision go dark as she collapsed."Sophie!"In a daze, she only managed to hear Xavier's shout before she completely lost consciousness.…When she woke up again, she was already in the hospital. Staring at the familiar white walls, her expression remained unchanged. Her gaze held no life, and her eyes were like vacant sockets reflecting a soul that seemed to have been extinguished.Was this her fate? A life devoid of a child, a family forever incomplete? What had she done wrong? Was she really so wicked? She had been abandoned as a child. Now, was this the ultimate punishment? She was being cruelly deprived of her right to be a mother?If this was her fate, she questioned her very existence. Why be born into a world that offered only emptiness?"Are you awake?" A surprised voice suddenly came from the door.It was Xavier.He ha

Xavier furrowed his brows. "There's a chance it could have affected the baby, but it's too early to tell for sure. We'll need to wait until the baby develops further and get an ultrasound for a clearer picture. "But don't worry. Keep up with your regular prenatal appointments, and we'll monitor the baby's health closely. Everything will likely be alright."What he didn't say was that if she had taken any anti-inflammatory drugs, the possibility of harm to the baby was extremely high.Coupled with her weak uterus, poor health foundation, and falling into the water... This pregnancy might be in jeopardy.But he couldn't tell her any of that.Sometimes, a pregnant woman's mood could also affect the baby, so he couldn't scare her.Thinking of this, Xavier felt bitter in his heart.He had been too late again. He had thought that their reunion was a chance given by fate, but he hadn't expected…"Sophie," Xavier suddenly called out.Sophie was still immersed in the shock of being pr

Xavier realized that he had been too hasty in his words. He should have remembered the unusual injuries he had seen on her body that night. How could he have uncovered her scars?At the same time, he also felt resentment and blame toward the father of Sophie's child, whom he hadn't met yet. Sophie was such a wonderful person.He was already incredibly fortunate to have her in his life. Why hadn't he cherished her more? Why had he hurt her so?Sophie came back to her senses and immediately understood from Xavier's worried and angry expression that he had misunderstood. She hurriedly explained, "Don't get me wrong. Actually, I'm already married, and the baby's father... He's a good man."Mitchell was indeed a good man. He was also the only one in this world who was truly good to her without asking for anything in return.Despite his coldness and the torture and humiliation that followed, she never resented him for any of it.He hadn't done anything wrong. She was the one wh

Xavier prepared a bowl of oatmeal for her and casually asked, "By the way, do you want to inform the baby's father to come over now?" Though he now knew that he had been mistaken before, Sophie was married and living a blissful life. But he still wanted to see this man with his own eyes and to personally confirm if the man was as good as Sophie had described.Only then could he rest assured in handing Sophie over to that man."I..." Sophie's hand holding the oatmeal bowl paused.She desperately wanted to share this good news with Mitchell right away, but she also felt a mix of nervousness and anxiety.She wondered if Mitchell would be happy. She still clearly remembered he had told her that she wasn't worthy of being his child's mother.Could it be that he actually didn't want this child?But soon, Sophie dismissed this thought. How could that be? He had said before that he wanted a child.Besides, he had even secretly sought help from an herbal medicine expert to help imp

Sophie lay alone, her gaze dimming with each passing minute.Mitchell still didn't call back. This couldn't help but remind her of the days when he had coldly ignored her for the past three years.She had eaten alone, slept alone, and spent one festive occasion after another alone.…Sophie grappled with her thoughts for a long time, so long that she had lost track of time. The constant knock on the door jolted her back to reality.As the door creaked open, a flicker of hope ignited in her eyes but quickly extinguished when she saw the person standing there. "Xavier..." Xavier glanced at the empty ward and asked, "Has the baby's father not rushed over yet?"It had been a whole day. Even if they were far apart, Mitchell should have made it by now.Sophie's already depressed mood instantly sank to the bottom as she said, "He... is busy..."Xavier frowned. He had just decided to let go, but he felt his heart waver for a moment when he saw Sophie in her current state.But he

Xavier followed Sophie's gaze, yet he didn't see anything.Sophie couldn't hear what Xavier was saying.All she wanted to know was why Mandy was here!Although she had only caught a brief glimpse of that fleeting figure, she was sure she hadn't mistaken it.That was Mandy for sure!As if suddenly realizing something, Sophie immediately took out her phone and called Mitchell. "Answer the phone... Please answer the phone…" she repeated in her mind.Each monotonous "beep" from the phone stretched into an eternity.Just when she was almost desperate, the familiar, deep voice of the man finally came from the other end of the phone. "Hello?"Sophie's tense nerves relaxed, and a smile finally appeared on her face. "Mitchell, I—""Mr. Andy, please proceed to Room 6 for your appointment..." Suddenly, a voice rang out at Mitchell's side.Sophie's grip on the phone tightened suddenly. She suppressed her emotions deep down and asked, "Where are you right now?"There was a slight pause

In the basement, Sophie slowly opened her eyes."Where… is this place? Am I… still alive?" she thought.She couldn't see things clearly as her vision was blurry. She could only see the spots of light above her head, and she found the light dazzling.Her pupils shrank to protect her eyes from the light. It took her a while before her vision became clear again.Yet, she could still see nothing.She tried to sit up to see where she was but found out that she couldn't move her body.She had no strength at all.These powerless, helpless, and hopeless feelings reminded her of everything that had happened before she fell unconscious.Her baby, Mandy, and… Mitchell.She couldn't forget the scene where the man had left with Mandy in his arms and how she was left in that cold pool of blood!She immediately lost hope, thinking it was better for her to die since her baby was gone. Mitchell had abandoned her, too.Sophie wondered what was the point of staying alive."Beep… Beep…"A lou

There wouldn't be any country's laws that allowed such a drug to be released.However, upon hearing such horrifying side effects, the woman didn't hesitate at all before she said, "Use it on her."Although the man in a white coat was the one who proposed the idea, he was stunned by the woman's ruthless attitude."Once this medicine is used on her, there's no turning back… What if—" He tried to dissuade her.The woman coldly interrupted him, "Just use it. I'll take the responsibility if anything happens."Listening to the words, the man in a white coat stopped speaking and nodded. "Understood."He was just following orders. The result and the patient's life weren't his responsibilities. It was such a pity, though. Looking at the woman's pale yet charming face on the operating table, he could only sigh. He didn't even know what he was lamenting about.The woman got what she wanted and left.It was also dark outside. Followed by the sound of the door opening, the wall lamps we

Harold sounded worried on the phone.There was an immediate change in Mitchell's expression when he heard Harold's words. "What do you mean by 'missing'?""Earlier tonight, Ms. Sophie suddenly rushed out and drove away. I thought she might have something to settle. But after waiting all night, Ms. Sophie didn't return. I tried to call her but the call couldn't get through," Harold explained the situation briefly.Mitchell's restless feeling had reached its peak at this moment."Got it." He hung up the phone and left the hospital.In the emergency room, Mandy was still in a coma, having no idea that Mitchell had left.Although she was the one who had planned everything, she stabbed herself forcefully to make it seem more convincing. Besides, she stabbed herself a little longer before Mitchell arrived to show that she had suffered from excessive blood loss. Although her life was not in danger at the moment, her condition wasn't good either. On the other side, Sophie was in a mo

She couldn't wait longer to be saved. However, the phone in front of her was still dialing. Mitchell didn't pick up her call.He chose Mandy.Sophie suddenly tasted a bitter saltiness in her mouth.At that moment, she realized that she was crying.She raised her teary and blurry eyes. Through the mist, she saw Mitchell lifting Mandy, who was lying on the ground, outside. That cold man looked worried."Mitch, you're finally here…" She heard Mandy's weak yet joyful voice."Stop talking. Let me take you to the hospital now."She also heard the man's voice which was slow yet tense.She struggled to make a hoarse sound and silently called the man's name, hoping he could notice her behind the wall. And their child…However, that man, who had said he wanted to live happily and have a child with her, was only worried about Mandy in his arms at the moment. He lifted Mandy and hurriedly left the warehouse without even looking in her direction.She could even clearly spot her glasse

She wondered if she would die there that day. Sophie had no idea what others would think before they died. Right now, she could only think about the baby inside her. That poor, barely three-month-old baby, who didn't even have the chance to see the world.She thought it was all her fault.She wouldn't have fallen into Mandy's trap if she had been more careful. Her baby wouldn't have died tragically with her.What if there was a chance to turn back time, would she still risk anything to come and save Mitchell?As Sophie was thinking, she realized that if she was given another chance, she might have done the same thing.She couldn't bear to watch Mitchell being harmed. Even if it was just a possibility.If that was the case, she had no regrets.It was just that if she could turn back time, she hoped that the baby wouldn't choose to be her child again.She wasn't a good mother, for she had failed to protect the baby.If the baby chose someone else as the mother, that person w

"Don't worry. Didn't you just hear it? Mitch will be here soon.""Mitch… Mitchell…"Sophie suddenly felt that there was still hope when she heard Mitchell would be there soon.He would definitely save their child."Mitchell… Mitch… Please come as soon as possible…" she muttered secretly. She had never been so eager for Mitchell to appear in front of her as she was at the moment.She didn't even realize why Mitchell, who was supposed to still be unconscious, would be able to answer Mandy's call.She only hoped that Mitchell would arrive sooner and save her baby.Mandy was extremely jealous as she saw the glint of hope in Sophie's eyes. She couldn't fathom what right Sophie had that made her deserve such special treatment from Mitchell.Sophie was just a lowly orphan. She wouldn't even have had the chance to meet Mitchell for the rest of her life if she hadn't been adopted by the Warner family!Not only did she become the adopted daughter of the Warner family, but she even

In a private room in a hotel, Mitchell watched the people, who were still chatting and toasting at the dining table. Feeling annoyed, he slightly furrowed his brows.For some reason, he had been feeling uneasy since just now. He felt like something was about to happen.It happened that he had to entertain several important customers that day.When the conversation paused, he told them he was going to smoke and left the private room.Leaning against the wall in the corridor, he rubbed his forehead to reduce the uneasy feeling. He took out his phone and intended to call Sophie.For some reason, he wanted to hear her voice at that moment. However, the call wouldn't go through.Mitchell started to feel uneasy again. He attempted to call Harold but his phone was showing no signal.It turned out that he had no signal there.Feeling relieved, Mitchell took his phone and walked to the end of the corridor, where his phone finally showed a full signal bar.When he was about to call

She swayed and only managed to glance at Mandy before she completely lost consciousness...The tall man was gone when Sophie woke up.She was bound with ropes, surrounded by high piles of debris. She seemed to be kept at the back of the abandoned warehouse.Sophie heard a voice in front of her when she was still looking around. "So you're awake."Only then did she notice Mandy was standing not far in front of her.Seeing that Sophie had opened her eyes, Mandy slowly walked toward her. She squatted down in front of Sophie and sized the latter up.Her gaze stopped at Sophie's belly.Sensing that, Sophie instinctively curled her body, trying to protect her belly.It was only then that she realized the pain in her abdomen.She felt like something was about to detach from her body. This feeling filled her with sudden intense panic and unease.Sophie desperately prayed that her baby could stay strong and promised to keep it safe. "You're pregnant," Mandy suddenly said. She sounde

Sophie drove to the address Mandy had sent her. It was an old, abandoned warehouse.Sophie had no time to think about anything else, so she pushed open the door and walked into the warehouse.Mandy had been waiting inside. She chuckled when she saw Sophie walk in. "I didn't expect that you'd actually come to meet me."Sophie frowned, finding that Mandy's words were somewhat strange. She suppressed her doubts and looked around, but she saw no one else.She wasn't sure whether to be disappointed or relieved.After all, Mitchell wouldn't be in danger as long as she got to calm Mandy down."How do you want to end things between us?" Sophie asked while standing tall to look at Mandy on an old abandoned chair.Mandy suddenly asked, "Do you remember that bet I told you?""What?" Sophie couldn't fully react."I had a bet with you to see whether Mitch cared about you or me," Mandy said.Sophie pursed her lips while remaining silent.She didn't understand why Mandy would bring up th
