Love Began with the First Meeting novel Chapter 408

Molly tried to open her eyes, yet the blood in her eyes made her feel like she was looking into a world of hellfire.

She couldn't move her body at all, and her breathing was weak and shallow.

However, the instinctive toughness as a mother strengthened her, and she managed to overcome the fear in her heart. She opened her mouth with difficulty and said in a weak, but determined tone, "Don't...hurt him, please. I... beg you, doctor. Please... don't take away my baby... from... me."

Dr. He stared at Molly and a shade of sadness flashed through him. Throughout his career, he had operated on many different patients, most of whom had survived the operating table, yet, some others weren't so lucky. He had witnessed many people who went into their long sleep and he was by now used to those heart-breaking parting moments. However, when he saw Molly's pale face and bloody eyes, he was taken aback by the strength of this young mother.

"Even if he ends up... with some complications because of this... " Molly said in an extremely weak tone, and every word seemed to take up all her energy, "He is my baby... after all. I... I... don't want... to... end his life this way..."

After she finally finished speaking, a drop of tear trickled down her cheek. The tear was bloody red, and it looked horrific in the harsh light of the operating lamps.

Tears kept welling out from Molly's eyes, and she couldn't repress them, regardless of the sharp pain in her eyes. Even so, she was pierced to the heart with grief which went beyond the pain in her body. When she had heard Brian's words, she had felt like she was left totally alone in this world once again. She had thought that after her retinas were given to Becky just as Brian and Becky had wished, she would bid farewell to the world on this icy cold operating table.

But then, she heard from the nurse that she was pregnant. Her whole world trembled when she found out about the existence of this little life. She had felt both joy and grief, but more than that, she was perplexed and stumped wondering about the baby's fate. When the nurse suggested that she should have an abortion, she had thrown away her own miserable experiences out of her mind. The only thought in her mind was that she wanted to protect her baby!

"Doctor... I beg you... please." Her sobbing and hoarse voice was filled with despair. Her bloody tears dripped down on the operating table and stained the cloth red.

The operation room fell into silence. All the staff focused their attention on Molly. None of them knew what Molly's exact condition was, except Dr. He. However, they all knew that Molly was very likely to go blind while her kid might suffer from various complications because of her injuries. Everyone was touched by Molly's request. They not only sympathized with her possibly miserable future, but also with the dramatic tragedy in front of them.

"Miss Xia," said Dr. He with knitted eyebrows, "I hope you fully understand what might happen if you keep the baby. The situation is quite complicated. If you are incredibly lucky, the baby might not get affected at all. You're only one month along, so we can hope for the best. However, if things don't go smoothly, the baby will definitely suffer from this ordeal."

Molly stared at Dr. He, but she could only see a blurry red figure. Due to the burst in the blood vessels of her eyes, everything seemed bloody red to her. She gave a bitter smile with all her strength, and then begged in anguish, "I know, but... he's... my only hope. Doctor, please."
