Chapter 401

Winona touched Calla's belly and asked kindly, "How long until your due date?""About a month," Calla replied.Looking down at her belly, Calla smiled happily. This little one inside her was very active, especially at night. The baby wouldn't go to sleep without kicking her a few times.Hearing this, Winona nodded, then turned and walked to the wardrobe. She opened it and pulled out a large bag of clothes.Calla watched in surprise as Winona placed the bag on the bed. Winona then sat on the edge of the bed and slowly began to unwrap it.Calla's eyes lit up when she saw the colorful cartoon fabric inside the bag. The bright colors and familiar cartoon characters were designs that children loved."This is..." Calla slowly walked over.Winona looked up and smiled. "My eyes aren't what they used to be, but I spent a few nights making these small quilts. They may not be as perfect as the ones I made when I was younger, but I hope they'll do."Calla was overwhelmed with gratitude. Sh

Chapter 402

The black car appeared out of nowhere so suddenly that Calla's heart was racing like crazy.When she saw that the black car was a Bentley, her legs went weak. Mercer's car was also a Bentley, identical to this one. Although she couldn't see the license plate, she had a strong feeling that this was Mercer's car.This area was nothing if not remote and desolate. Forget Bentleys, even regular cars were rarely seen here. He must have found her.The next moment, the rear door opened, and a tall man in a long black coat stepped out. He was like a glacier amid a summer meadow, his coldness seeping into the air as he strode forward.Seeing Mercer, Calla's mind went blank, and she could almost hear the sound of her racing heartbeats. His gaze was unusually complex, and he looked haggard with stubble on his jaw.Calla had no time to think. She instinctively turned to run away. She was about to give birth and couldn't let herself fall into his hands. She didn't know exactly what he wanted,

Chapter 403

Calla's resistance melted away when she heard Mercer's warning. After all, she was now over eight months pregnant, and she couldn't risk any harm coming to her baby.Seeing that Calla had stopped moving, Mercer instructed Simon in front, "Drive!"At Mercer's command, Simon started the engine, and the car turned around. They headed back in the direction they had originally come from.The journey was smooth and quick. Calla looked out the window and knew they were heading back to Riverford.Then, she withdrew her gaze, thinking to herself, "What kind of game is Mercer playing? What does he want?"With Mercer's influence, he could have found her long ago if he wanted to. It wouldn't have taken him this long.So, during these past few months, did he avoid coming to find her? But why was he here now? And why did he abduct her? What did he want to do? Calla simply couldn't figure it out.Ultimately, Calla concluded that he must be after her baby, so she questioned him, "Mercer, look m

Mercer turned to face Calla, a look of resignation and complicated emotions in his eyes. Noticing her anxiety, he forced a faint smile. "I want you to deliver the child right now."Calla was shocked by his words."What did you just say? You want me to have the baby now? How is that possible? I'm only 33 weeks along. The baby would be premature and might not survive!" Calla couldn't help but shout at Mercer.Mercer's expression turned cold when Calla protested. He turned away, staring at the hospital ahead. "You're having this baby today, no matter what!"Realizing his determination, Calla knew he wasn't joking. She also knew that resisting him might be useless. As she touched her belly, her heart pounded at an alarming rate.No! She couldn't have the baby today. She thought of her first child and was determined not to let history repeat itself with another premature birth.In the blink of an eye, Calla dropped to her knees with a heavy thud on the car floor.Calla's action cause

Calla's legs trembled as she looked at Mercer's extended hand. She shook her head frantically. "No… No... I don't want to!"Mercer's forehead was creased in a frown, his dark eyes gazing at Calla with a touch of sadness.His tone mellowed as he said, "You're already over eight months pregnant. A C-section now wouldn't harm the baby. I've arranged for the best obstetrician and pediatrician in the city. They can guarantee that both you and the child will be fine!""No, I don't want to deliver the baby now. I want to wait until she's full-term." Calla shook her head with all her might, her face streaked with tears.Seeing that Calla wouldn't budge, Mercer withdrew his hand. He then gave a subtle signal to Simon, who was standing behind Calla.Simon understood and stepped forward, covering Calla's mouth with a cloth.The next moment, Calla felt her body go limp. She managed one last glare at Mercer before succumbing to sleep.Simon caught her just in time, and Mercer quickly bent do

Chapter 406

After what felt like an eternity, the door to the operating room finally opened. A doctor in a white coat hurried out."Doctor, how are they?" Mercer quickly stepped forward to ask.A warm smile spread across the doctor's face as he removed his mask."The mother just gave birth to a baby girl. Her vital signs are relatively good, but since she was born a month premature, we've placed her in an incubator."Hearing this, Mercer let out a sigh of relief. But as if remembering something, he anxiously asked, "How about the mother?"At this, the doctor's expression grew serious. "The mother lost a significant amount of blood. She's receiving a transfusion and needs to be hospitalized for observation."Mercer's face grew tense, and he urged, "Doctor, please do everything you can to save her!""Mr. Garland, rest assured. It is our duty as doctors to do everything we can to save our patients," the doctor replied.The next moment, Mercer asked, "Doctor, can my daughter's umbilical cord b

Calla hesitated, almost afraid to take the phone from Pierre. She was terrified that history would repeat itself, and she'd lose this child too."Your daughter is very beautiful and cute," Pierre said to Calla with a smile.Hearing this, Calla quickly grabbed the phone. Indeed, on the screen was a picture of a tiny baby wrapped in a pink blanket.She lay with her eyes closed, her two small hands raised to either side of her head, sleeping peacefully. Despite her clumsiness, she looked tiny and frail, so vulnerable that it was impossible not to feel sorry for her."Why is she so tiny?" Calla couldn't take her eyes off the screen."Because she was born prematurely, she's smaller than most babies. But I've asked the doctor, and it's nothing to worry about. It won't affect her growth later on. In a few months, she'll be as plump and healthy as any other child," Pierre reassured Calla.Calla reached out to touch her daughter's little face on the screen. Knowing that she was safe and h

After what Calla said, Pierre was shocked into silence. Then, he stood up and slammed his fist on the table."Is Mercer even human? How could he do something like this? This is his flesh and blood. I'm going to have a word with him and get him to come clean. I'll make sure he gives you a satisfactory explanation!" With that, Pierre turned and started to leave."Pierre!" When Calla saw that Pierre was leaving to confront Mercer, she panicked. She tried to grab Pierre's hand but he was walking too fast and had already reached the door.Calla knew that Mercer had lost his mind and reasoning with him would be futile. She feared she would implicate Pierre if Mercer were to take his anger out on him. After all, she'd troubled Pierre enough and didn't want to cause him more problems.So in her desperation, Calla tried to get out of bed in a hurry. However, she had forgotten about the wound on her stomach. Before her feet could touch the ground, she rolled off the hospital bed in pain.Pi

Chapter 409

At that moment, the door to the ward was gently pushed open.Mercer looked up to see Simon poking his head in.Then, Mercer glanced at Casper on the hospital bed before quickly leaving the room.Gently closing the door behind him, Mercer turned to Simon and softly asked, "Are the results out?"Simon nodded, his face showing joy. "Yes, they got it. Casper and the newborn's umbilical cord blood are a match. The doctor said that as long as Casper's vital signs remain normal, they can schedule the surgery soon.""That's great!" Mercer was overwhelmed with joy that he punched the wall in elation.Simon beamed just as brightly. Then, with concern, he said to Mercer, "Mr. Garland, you haven't slept for two nights. Now that we finally have good news, you should go and get some rest. After all, your health is important; Casper is counting on you.""I know. I'll leave things here to you and rest for a while. Oh, and please talk to the doctor. I want to schedule the surgery for Casper as s

Chapter 410

Mercer frowned when he saw Calla's pale face, her expression haggard and weak. He wanted to approach her, but a voice in his head stopped him. He reminded himself that Casper's condition was still uncertain. Now was not the time for them to reunite. Besides, her fragile state would likely be unable to withstand any further emotional turmoil right now.Pierre carefully supported Calla as they reached the large glass window of the NICU. Pointing at a baby wrapped in a pink blanket, he smiled and said, "It's her, right here!"Following the direction of Pierre's finger, Calla saw the tiny baby with rosy cheeks and long eyelashes. If she weren't so tiny, she would be even more beautiful.Calla reached out to touch the glass as if she could already feel her daughter's cheek. Her eyes carefully took in every detail of the child, her heart overflowing with emotion.The last time she gave birth, she didn't even get a chance to see her son. Before she could, the doctor announced that the c
