"Chief, Miss Leonard has only been injected with a slight dose of anesthesia. Her condition is not serious."
After conducting a series of examinations, the director of the surgical department gave Yvon a positive conclusion and was relieved as he did so. Thank goodness…
“What about the baby in her womb?”
Janina was greatly anxious. If Joye hadn’t reacted fast enough to stab that quack, she couldn’t even imagine the consequences.
"The baby is alright too."
Yvon also let out a sigh of relief and turned to look at Joye, who was still in a coma. His brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and there was a hint of hostility in his eyes that he did not notice.
"Yvon, Joye is waking up!"
Janine tugged Yvon’s hand hard, only after that did he come back to his senses. Joye lifted her heavy eyelids. For a moment, she thought that she had just fallen asleep. However, after a little while, she remembered everything that happened before. She suddenly sat up and covered her belly with her hands. “My child!”
"Joye, hurry up and lie down. The baby in your belly is alright."
Janina quickly pressed Joye’s shoulders down. Her heart was filled with hatred. "Which b*stard tried to hurt your child?"
"Janina..."
Joye gradually calmed her anxious breathing. She grabbed Janina’s arms, but her throat seemed to be blocked by something. She couldn’t say the words.
It was Shawn Richard who did not want his child.
That man's words echoed in her mind. Her pale lips moved slightly. He didn't want the child in her womb, but she wanted it. What rights did he have to take that away from her?
“Joye, I will ask William to keep watch in the hospital. Such a situation will not happen again.”
Yvon's deep but gentle voice broke through her chaotic thoughts and freed herself from her pain and hatred. She widened her eyes and shook her head. "I don't want to be in the hospital, I want to go home."
This was a place where she should be healing, but she almost lost her baby. She did not want to stay there anymore.
"But you have just finished your..."
When she saw the insistence in Joye’s eyes, Janina swallowed her words. She could only look at Yvon helplessly and place her hopes on him to convince Joye to stay in the hospital. Unexpectedly, he said something else, “Then I will ask William to get you discharged from the hospital.”
The guard, William, immediately went to handle the discharge formalities. Yvon followed him out of the ward then walked towards the other wards with cold steps.
When Janina saw that he had left, she sat gently by the bed. “Who was the man that hurt you? Did Vivian send him?”
Vivian was like the vicious supporting character in the novel. With such tactics, it must be she who was responsible for the incident.
Joye’s eyes suddenly turned watery. She turned her head away and did not answer her friend’s question.
Whether it was because of Vivian or not, Shawn did not want this child at all.
......
"Who are you? What do you want?"
As soon as the man who was rescued opened his eyes, he saw Yvon entering with a cold look. He was so scared that he started to lean back.
"Who was the one that ordered you to do that?"
As Yvon asked, he grabbed the man’s arm with a cold expression and twisted it with great force. After that, a few more sounds of bones being dislocated could be heard.
That man instantly broke out a cold sweat from the pain. He looked at his now powerless arm with fear in his eyes.
“I have eaten at the pizza shop at that place in front of us before. It is very delicious. Shall we go there to eat?”
Dalton pointed out of the window and begged sweetly with his little hands. Shawn looked at the pizza shop opposite the hospital and frowned. How could all of this be such a coincidence?
When Vivian saw that, she immediately said, “Shawn, it is okay if you don’t want to eat pizza. We can take Jasper to eat something else.”
"No! I want pizza. Dad, can you take me there?"
Dalton had always been well-behaved and obedient, but that day, he was particularly persistent. He pulled Shawn's arm with tears in his eyes. The pitiful look of wanting to cry made his heart soften slightly, and the irritation in his eyes was also suppressed. "Okay, if Jasper likes it, let’s eat it."
"Yay! Dad, you are the best."
Dalton, who was originally sad, immediately smiled again. Shawn smiled as well, he looked out of the window as he did. After that, the smile on his face reverted into a straight line.
He did not know what choice that woman made.
The car stopped at the entrance of a pizza shop. Shawn got out of the car, he could not help but look at the hospital opposite of it. His hands were suddenly held by another small hand.
Dalton looked up happily and said, “Dad, Mom, let’s hold hands as we go inside the pizza shop.”
He came back from his thoughts. Shawn moved his long legs and started to walk inside.
Standing at the entrance of the hospital, Joye was being helped out of the hospital by Janina. At that moment, she looked up and it felt like all the blood in her body froze. The ice in her blood formed sharp edges pierced through her blood vessels. She was in so much pain that she slowly became numb.
On the one hand, he ordered someone to kill his child. On the other hand, he was enjoying his time with his family of three.
Shawn, how could you be such a despicable and cruel man!
