Chapter 352 I Did It
Using her medical experience, Elspeth believed Ginna was likely suffering from a miscarriage. With that, she immediately dialed 911 and then felt her breathing.
It’s clear that she’s suffering from a miscarriage, yet she’s showing signs of poisoning!
“Elspeth…” Ginna called out to her with slightly narrowed eyes while fighting her consciousness.
“What is it?” Elspeth leaned her ear against Ginna’s lips to hear better.
“Please, save my child. Please, I beg you…” Ginna pleaded as she reached for her belly.
“Everything will have to wait until we reach the hospital and hear what the doctor has to say. I can’t do anything right now.”
After hearing Elspeth’s words, Ginna seemed unable to hold on anymore as her eyes gradually lost focus, and she passed out eventually.
The ambulance arrived soon after, and Elspeth and Arthur couldn’t care less about the engagement party anymore. What was important right then was sending Ginna to the hospital.
Just like that, the engagement was postponed.
…
After they arrived at the hospital’s emergency room, Elspeth stood guard anxiously at the door.
Arthur, on the other hand, was rather impassive. “What are you so worried about? It’s not like that’s your child in there,” he said, looking at Elspeth while leaning against the bench.
However, it only annoyed her further when it seemed that he wanted bigger drama.
“If something bad happens to the child, given Ginna’s vengeful personality, she’ll be bound to do something again.”
To that, Arthur crossed his leg and fiddled with his phone while saying, “If she wants to seek revenge, then let her be. You don’t have to worry. If she does anything to you, I won’t let her get away with it. You’re my fiancée now, after all.”
Sure, making sarcastic remarks is going to help with the situation.
Having done talking to him, Elspeth directed her attention back to the lit-up ‘in operation’ sign above her head.
Very quickly, the light switched off, and a doctor walked out. “Is the patient’s family here?” he asked after sweeping his gaze across the space.
At that, Elspeth came forward. “Her family’s not here at the moment. I can represent them for now.”
The doctor sighed and shook his head when he saw how anxious she looked. “I’m sorry. The child’s gone.”
“Is there really no other way?” Elspeth’s heart sank.
“She was poisoned with a deadly substance, and its toxins had already spread to her uterus. If you forcibly keep the baby, he will be born with the toxin, and worst, he might be born deformed.”
Elspeth locked her brows into a tight furrow in response. Seconds later, she said firmly, “Got it. Thank you, Doctor.”
Ginna, on the other hand, had been transferred to the general ward when her condition improved after receiving treatment, and a nurse was feeding her medicine when Elspeth visited her.
As she looked at the poor young woman’s now flat belly, a hint of pity flashed across her eyes, and when she placed the fruits she had brought onto the table, Ginna swept it all away before she even had the chance to set it down properly.
“Get out!” she screamed, startling the nurse, causing the latter to jolt and nearly drop the medicine.
Ginna’s anger was through the roof, and when she saw Elspeth, it was like she had found a target to vent it all out. “I said scram!”
“I know you’re upset because you’ve lost your child,” Elspeth said plainly. “But it has nothing to do with me.”
