His Heart Is Now Elsewhere novel Chapter 2

Chapter 2 

When we arrived at the hospital, he held me and rushed crazily towards the blood drawing room. 

Bumpy all the way, my already weak body could no longer bear it. 

Before I even stepped inside, I vomited a mouthful of blood. 

Edward gently wiped away the bloodstain from the corner of my mouth. 

He turned around and held me down, using his eyes to signal the doctor to prepare for blood 

extraction as soon as possible. 

The cold needle pierced into my body, and I instinctively clenched Edward’s sleeve. 

The intense pain coming from my heart rendered me unable to utter a single sound. 

When I was in a state of confusion, I heard the doctor say with a hint of concern. 

“Mr. Matthews, Mrs. Matthews cannot have too much blood drawn in this situation. If we continue 

like this, she will die!” 

Edward looked at me with cold eyes. 

“Enough talking, draw as much blood as Selena needs!” 

“If it’s not enough, I will have someone bring the child as well, no matter what the cost, I won’t allow anything to happen to Selena!” 

The blood in the body gradually cooled down. 

In his heart, the lives of me and the children combined were not as important as his Selena. 

I weakly forced out a bitter smile and let myself sink into a deep sleep. 

When I opened my eyes again, I had already been taken to a regular ward. 

Edward stood by the sickbed with red eyes and a worried expression on his face. 

When he saw me wake up, he couldn’t help but shed tears. 

“Melanie, the doctor said you fell into a coma due to excessive blood loss.” 

“Fortunately, you are fine. I almost thought you would never wake up again!” 

He held me in his arms, crying with genuine and heartfelt emotions. 

I, however, felt disgusted. 

He clearly disregarded my life and death, so why bother pretending to be affectionate in front of me?

I pushed him away without making a sound, and forced a faint smile. 

“I’m fine, you don’t have to worry about me. I’m concerned about leaving Anthony alone at home, so you should go back and take care of him first.” 

Edward’s face was tinged with a hint of sorrow. 

I didn’t pay attention, I just took it as him mentioning Anthony with some guilt. 

But the next second, he suddenly spoke up. 

“Melanie, the child’s condition is like this now, the doctor said it would be difficult for him to 

recover in the future, it’s hard to say if he can survive and grow up.” 

“Should we make plans early and adopt a healthy child as soon as possible?” 

I lifted my eyes and looked at him in disbelief. 

Edward didn’t notice my strangeness and he held my hand and kissed it near his mouth. 

“Melanie, you were very sad after Anthony’s accident, and it pained me to see you like that. Instead of feeling this way, why don’t we have another normal child?” 

The questioning words were on the tip of my tongue, but I swallowed them all. 

After a moment of silence, I cautiously spoke up. 

“Edward, I didn’t want to raise someone else’s child. How about we have our own child in the 

future?” 

He instantly changed his facial expression and pushed me away. 

“What are you talking about!” 

After realizing that he had lost his composure, he slowed down his voice, but his eyes involuntarily 

avoided contact. 

“Melanie, your body is no longer suitable for having children, I can’t bear to see you suffer.” 

“Anthony, in this situation, will also need someone to take care of him in the future. Just today, the doctor said that the person who received your blood donation wants to find someone to adopt their own child, so that’s why I…” 

“Don’t worry, only Anthony is my biological child, and everything I did was for his sake.” 

My heart felt as if it was being squeezed tightly, causing intense pain. 

He took away everything from Anthony, not even willing to leave him a little bit of love. 

Always claiming to consider the children.
