Clarissa was unhappy in her heart. She made a call to Adelaide.
"Sister, I wondered if you slept well last night.
Antonio went far. I asked him not to sleep with me in his arms, but he said he loved me and had to hold me to feel safe."
Adelaide gritted her teeth and said.
"Very good!"
She hung up the phone in a hurry. She felt comfortable to hear Clarissa's words.
It was one thing to know that Antonio and Clarissa were sleeping together, and it was another to hear her say it in person. She forced herself not to think about Clarissa's words, but she couldn't stop thinking about the images that came out of her mouth.
Adelaide's forehead slowly filled with fine beads of sweat. Her eyebrows wrinkled together from the pain. She covered her stomach with one hand while shouting,
"Damla, Damla, my stomach, it hurts, it hurts!"
Clarissa’s words stimulated Adelaide. Adelaide felt the child as if to leave her. Damla was not there. She shouted while no one to come. Adelaide grits teeth, picked up the mobile phone and made a call to Antonio.
But he hung up. And when she called again, it was already off.
Adelaide's tears came out. She thought of Hanna her best friend so she made a call to her with trembling hands.
"Hello, Adelaide."
"Hanna, my stomach hurts so much, it hurts so much, come to my house!"
With her last breath, she finished the sentence brokenly. Without too much strength to support herself, she passed out.
The good thing is that when she got married Hanna came to her house, and there are not many people with the surname Gu in this area, saying which building Antonio lives in others quickly told her.
When Hanna came to Adelaide, Damla was playing with her phone on the first floor, not knowing exactly what she was doing, perhaps she was too involved to hear Adelaide's cries for help.
When the two went upstairs, Adelaide's lower body was already bleeding. Both of them were terrified and carried Adelaide to her car.
She then drove Adelaide to the hospital.
The lights in the operating room were on for a whole hour. Hanna walked around in the long corridor. She still remembered Adelaide's happy expression the day she married Antonio, but in just a few years, how did she get herself into this state?
The doctor came out of the operating room and first reprimanded Hanna. How could a pregnant woman get angry and lose sleep in the early stages of pregnancy?
After the lecture, he told Hanna that it was fortunate that she had been in good health, or she would probably not have been able to keep the baby.
She was slightly relieved to hear that Adelaide and the baby were fine.
Adelaide was pushed to the ward before she woke up. As Hanna looks at her bestie lying sickly on the bed with a pale face, she was furious and blamed Antonio for everything.
Without waiting for Adelaide to wake up, she came to the Baron Group in a rage.
The receptionist asked her who she was looking for. Hanna yelled out Antonio's name. As the receptionist was to ask her if she had an appointment,
Hanna unkindly tugged at the receptionist's collar,
"Appointment? I'm his wife's best friend, where is he now?"
The receptionist had never seen such a fierce woman, and she informed Hanna of Antonio's office. Hanna rushed to Antonio's office by elevator.
Antonio's office was not in the highest floor of the company, but he had his own independent reception desk. Seeing Hanna coming straight to Antonio's office, Koby hurriedly stopped Hanna and said with a smile.
