Claire didn't remember how long she had slept. She only remembered that she had fallen asleep, and her body seemed to be getting lighter and lighter. Something embedded in her blood was being stripped away bit by bit, and she didn't feel the slightest bit uncomfortable, just more and more unwilling to wake up.
"Mom?" Claire saw a beautiful woman. She had never seen that woman before, but she suddenly found that the woman was familiar, inexplicably familiar. It was her mother. Yes, it was her mother. For so many years, she had only seen her mother in the photo, which was a black and white photo of a long time ago.
Claire grinned, "Mom, is that you? "
The beautiful woman in a white dress nodded with a smile. She was inexplicably noble and flawless, which made Claire want to be closer to her.
"Mom, I finally see you after so many years." Claire seemed to have forgotten who she was and how old she was. She just wanted to throw herself into this woman's arms. Yes, she had been longing for this hug for more than twenty years, and today she could finally get close to it.
The next second, she didn't remember what had happened. She was pushed away by the beautiful woman in front of her. She fell into darkness again, endless darkness.
"Claire, Claire!" A familiar voice kept ringing in her ears. She was extremely sober, but she could not open her eyes no matter how hard she tried.
After a long time, she finally opened her eyes. The face in front of her gradually became clear. She felt relieved at once. It was Chason. "Claire, you finally wake up!"
"I..." Claire felt a sharp pain in her mouth and tongue, and she couldn't make a sound.
Chason gently smoothed the hair on her forehead. Looking at her pale face, he felt heartbroken. When Claire was completely awake, she would definitely know that their baby was gone. How should he say to her? "Claire, let me feed you some water. "
Claire felt much better after taking a sip of warm water. What's wrong with her? She remembered that she had been sleeping at home before, but why was she lying in the hospital now and couldn't move at all. "I... What's wrong with me? "
"It's okay. It's just the sequela of the allergy. You can have a good rest." Chason tried his best to pretend that nothing had happened. He couldn't bear to hell her.
Claire frowned and felt a sharp pain in her abdomen. Although she could bear it, it made her feel uncomfortable. She slowly raised her hand that was being infused to touch her belly, but Chason stopped her. "Claire, the doctor said you shouldn't move."
Claire was stunned for a while and said weakly, "is our child all right, Chason?"
He knew that Claire would soon feel something different. As a woman, she was more sensitive to these things than anyone else. He took off the bitter smile at the corners of his mouth and comforted, "it's okay. Everything is fine. You just woke up. The doctor asked you to have more rest. I'll feed you something. Can you sleep a little longer? "
When Claire fell asleep again, Chason felt a little relieved. But this was not the way. Claire would know it soon. He felt as if a knife were piercing his heart when he thought of her desperate and sad eyes.
While cleaning up the room, the butler said, "Mr. Chason, why don't you tell Mrs. Claire the truth after she wakes up?" It was not a good way to delay it. Ralph was an experienced man. He knew that women were very sensitive when they were pregnant and miscarried. He was afraid that if Mr. Chason didn't explain it clearly in advance, Mrs. Claire would think too much.
Chason shook his head and said, "if Claire knows that the baby was aborted because of sleeping pills, she will definitely blame herself. We haven't found out the truth yet. Just hide it from her. "
The butler nodded and said, "Mr. Chason, I have released Fiona as you said. Mia kept cursing and thinking that we were going to hurt her daughter. As for what happened to Mrs. Claire, I didn't tell Linford either. "
"Good job." After a pause, he added, "give Mia a sum of money and stop her from telling others. "
Even if it wasn't because of Fiona, but considering the way she treated Claire last time, he just tied her up this time and didn't hurt her without any evidence. He didn't go too far.
As for Fiona, because of what happened last time, she had already been kicked out of the Xu family. Now, in the whole S City, Fiona could not find a decent job, let alone marry a rich and good family. However, although Mia loved her daughter very much, once it involved interests, in the face of that large sum of money sent by Chason, she would definitely feel that her daughter's grievance this time was worth it.
However, about whom hurt Claire in secret, there was no progress after several days of investigation. "Mr. Chason, I have checked what Mrs. Claire has eaten, but I haven't found the ingredients of sleeping pills."
