“Robin, what’s going on?” She immediately grabbed Lillian’s hand, sitting by the bed, using her sleeve to wipe the sweat and tears from Lillian’s face.
Robin was already working.
She leaned over Lillian, both hands carefully moving over her swollen abdomen as she tried to manage the situation.
“It’s more than just early labor. I think the baby’s been injured. I’ve already given her the delivery potion, but there’s no sign of labor starting. It’s been two hours.”
Lillian’s face twisted in pain. “Laila… it hurts so much…”
“Don’t be scared. I’m here.” Laila soothed her, then looked up at Robin. “Dr. Sagewood isn’t here?”
“She’s out of town on a house call. Rockie went to get her. Hopefully she makes it in time.” Robin tried to keep her voice steady, but the slight tremor at the end gave away her anxiety.
Viola couldn’t stand it and stepped outside, finding Bex. “What happened? How did things get
this bad?”
Bex’s face was flushed with anger. She pointed toward Shawn, who was tied to the tree. “He did it. But we let our guard down too.”
She explained in detail.
Over the past few days, Shawn had finally started to move on from losing Tiffany. Realizing how badly he had treated Lillian, he had been coming by every day, trying to make amends.
Every time he showed up, he came with a smile, bringing food and drinks. He kept apologizing, saying he should never have treated her that way. He was practically begging for forgiveness and swore it’d never happen again.
Lillian hadn’t openly confronted him, but she hadn’t responded warmly either.
After seven or eight days of this, Shawn’s constant efforts had worn down Rockie and Bex’s vigilance.

Today, when he came, Bex had been in the kitchen preparing medicinal herbs for labor. With the due date approaching, she had to get everything ready.
Lillian, already irritated at the sight of him, asked Rockie to take her outside for a walk.
But it was a little cold, so Rockie went back inside to grab a cloak.
No one knew what Shawn said to her in that moment. Suddenly, he slapped Lillian across the face and shoved her down the steps.
When Rockie heard the noise and ran out, she found Lillian already at the bottom, her forehead split open, blood everywhere.
“That piece of shit!”
Viola cursed and rushed over to Shawn, kicking him hard several times.
Shawn screamed in pain.
Evelyn winced at the sight of her son being beaten, but she knew she couldn’t step in. The more he suffered now, the less anger Laila and the others would hold later.
But even after screaming, Shawn was still shouting, “Why are you hitting me? She brought it on herself!”
Inside the room, Laila heard his voice while looking at Lillian on the bed. Her face was pale, nearly bloodless. The bleeding hadn’t stopped. There was no dilation. The child might suffocate inside her, and Lillian herself was in danger.
And that bastard was still talking like that, still blaming her.
Lillian’s maids, standing nearby, were in tears as well. Seeing Laila about to step out, one of them quickly spoke. “Ms. Conlay, Mr. Foster wanted Ms. Whitmore to speak well of him in front of you and help him get another position. She refused, said he didn’t deserve it. That’s when he lost his temper and pushed her. This isn’t her fault.”
Laila’s anger surged instantly, her Alpha presence turning cold as a winter storm.”
Evelyn hurried to apologize. “I’m sorry… This is my fault. I didn’t raise him well. But Laila, Lillian is more important right now. Let’s save her first. We can deal with that bastard afterward, alright?”
Tears streamed down her face. She truly cared about Lillian.
Laila stared at Evelyn for a long moment before slowly reining in the overwhelming pressure
