Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 1318

Lena felt like her body was being torn apart, the pain similar to roasting over a fire. Maybe this was how hell felt...

A bit of consciousness remained. She knew she leaned on a strong chest, feeling safe. A steady heartbeat echoed, too.

In her daze, she smiled faintly. She wanted to rest, yet a voice kept echoing.

"Lena, don't sleep! Don't you dare sleep!"

"Mom..." she mumbled.

"Lena!"

Suddenly, a sense of warmth spread through her heart.

She had not experienced much warmth throughout her life, let alone someone being so concerned about her.

When Lina argued with the shop owner and forced him to give her money, she had felt contented.

Now... where was this voice coming from?

"Lena, we're almost there!" Chris placed her in the car's back seat, speeding all the way. "We're almost at the hospital. Hold on!"

"I don't want to hold on anymore..." Lena weakly managed to say.

Lena was utterly exhausted. All she yearned for was a serene slumber.

In her dreams, her mother wouldn't commit such evil acts. Only there she felt cared for and cherished.

A tear trickled from the corner of Lena's eye. She couldn't hold back any more.

Chris paced outside the operating room, consumed by anxiety.
