My Husband's Affair My Anniversary Gift (Lily and David) novel Chapter 207

David’s car stopped hard in front of the hospital. He didn’t even bother to lock it; he just jumped out, still holding Lily in his arms. Her face was so pale, and her lips had lost all their color.

“Help! Someone help!” his voice broke out as he ran through the hospital doors. The nurses at the counter quickly looked up, shocked to see the blood on his shirt and hands.

“Please..she’s bleeding! She’s not waking up!” David shouted, his voice shaking.

Two nurses rushed over with a stretcher. “Put her here!” one of them said. David carefully laid her down, his hands trembling so bad that he almost lost his balance.

They started checking her pulse and talking quickly to each other, but David couldn’t catch what they said. Everything sounded like noise to him. His eyes were only on Lily.

“She was fine a few minutes ago,” he said, his voice breaking. “She just said her stomach hurt, and now...now she’s like this…”

“Sir, please wait outside,” a doctor said firmly, already pushing the stretcher toward the emergency room.

“No! I’m coming with her!” David tried to follow, but a nurse stopped him, shaking her head.

“Sir, we need to take care of her. Please wait outside.”

David stood there, frozen. His heart was pounding so hard he felt dizzy. His shirt was stained with her blood, his hands shaking, his breath coming in sharp, uneven gasps.

He looked down at his palms, they were still red. He rubbed them together hard, as if that could erase what had just happened, but it didn’t. The color stayed, and so did the fear.

Minutes passed, maybe more, he didn’t even know. He sat on the cold hospital bench, elbows resting on his knees, his head down.

His thoughts were a mess. He couldn’t stop remembering her last words before she fainted, how she had looked at him with those scared eyes. The image tore him apart from inside.

A nurse walked out after a while. “Sir, she’s being treated. Please calm down,” she said gently.

“Is she… is she going to be okay?” he asked, his voice barely coming out.

She didn’t answer right away, just gave a small nod before hurrying back inside.

David leaned back against the wall, his eyes closing tightly. “Please, Lily… don’t leave me,” he whispered under his breath, tears slipping down again.

He quickly took out his phone and called Roy.

Roy was just about to get into bed when his phone rang. Seeing David’s name on the screen at that hour made him frown, but the moment he heard his boss’s voice, his heart skipped a beat.

“Roy, come to the hospital. Now!” David’s voice was full of panic and fear, something Roy had never heard from him before.

“Boss, what happened?” Roy asked, already getting up, but David didn’t reply properly.

“Just come fast! Lily… she’s bleeding, she...” David’s voice broke in the middle of the sentence.

Roy didn’t ask anything more. He grabbed his car keys and rushed out of his apartment without even changing his clothes. His heart was pounding as he ran down the stairs.

The doctor’s gaze softened just a little, but he didn’t let David off. “She needs complete rest and immediate care. Any delay could make things worse. We need to monitor her closely now.”

David nodded, swallowing hard, his heart hammering in his chest. He felt helpless, terrified, guilty, and shocked all at once. He just wanted her to open her eyes, to look at him, to know he was there.

“Can I see her? I need to see her,” he asked, his voice tight, desperate. Even the news that she was pregnant barely registered in his mind. Right now, all he could think about was her, her safety, her pain.

“Boss, let them do their work,” Roy said gently, noticing David’s desperation. He placed a calm, respectful hand on David’s arm.

David shot him a sharp glance, his panic making him almost snap. But Roy stayed steady, calm as always. “Let them work. She’s in safe hands. I’ve already called Mr. Lori,” Roy added quietly.

Mr. Lori was the director of this hospital.

David’s expression softened slightly, and he stepped back, taking a deep breath to steady himself.

“Thank you, doctor. And please… make sure nothing goes out of this hospital,” Roy said firmly to the doctor.

The doctor, who already knew who David Hardison was, nodded without a word. He understood, David Hardison was someone no one could provoke lightly.

“Don’t worry about that,” the doctor said, his voice professional but respectful, before turning and walking back into the ward.

David stood there, watching the door swing closed, his chest tight. He let out a shaky breath, his mind still racing.
