The baby, his baby, was gone again.
Again, it was gone. He would taste this pain again in his life.
Was this retribution? Was God revenging on him?
There was a moment of silence in the room. After Hiram finished his words, his lips trembled slightly. However, on the bed, Alline's expression was very strange at the moment when she heard the news. It was empty, confused, guilty, and self reproach. Tears fell all of a sudden. She sobbed, "Sorry, Hiram, I didn't protect our child well. "
"It's not your fault, Alline. It's not your fault. It's my fault. I didn't protect you well. Don't cry. The doctor said that you just had a miscarriage and your body hasn't recovered yet. You can't cry. It's not good for your eyes. Holding Alline in his arms, Hiram felt that what happened a few hours ago was repeated in front of him. But this time, he felt more painful, more painful and more uncomfortable.
Because he felt the sadness, pain and self-blame of Alline.
Alline bit her lips and tears fell silently, "Hiram, why don't you keep the baby? Why don't you keep the baby? The clinic is in such a good condition. Why don't you let the doctor keep the baby? Do you know it's our baby?! "
"I'm sorry, Alline. It's all my fault. I can't keep our baby. Hearing her words, Hiram felt even more guilty. He held her in his arms, with tears in his eyes.
Alline cried even louder and the tears fell down. She hugged Hiram and cried in a daze. When she cried enough, she wiped her face and lay back on the bed, looking out of the window expressionlessly.
Seeing that, Hiram's heart ached. Alline might be sadder for him to lose his child.
Ethan didn't sleep all the time. After what had happened, he had been worried and couldn't fall asleep. His mind was in a mess. The miscarriage of Alline naturally alarmed everyone in Mo family, but no one dared to ask. Ethan ordered all the people who should go back, leaving only Jonny.
Sadness showed upon Jonny's face. He didn't know what to say. It was all his fault. If he hadn't been against his father, Alline wouldn't have lost her child. It was all his fault. If it weren't for him, the family wouldn't have ended up like this, and how could Alline bear the sin in it? He had been guarding outside the hospital, and no one persuaded him. He had been standing downstairs all the time.
The cold moon shone on him, and his body was full of desolation. Even the moonlight could not compare with his sadness and pain.
Ethan took a look at his son. When he heard the words of Alline and Hiram in the ward, he stopped knocking at the door again. His great grandson was gone. He didn't know how to face the two people when he pushed the door open.
For so many years, was he too stubborn? Why didn't the God punish him, but punished the child?
After a long pause, Ethan finally didn't have the heart to go inside and left. He turned around and met the servants in the Juan Garden on his way. It was already midnight, and the servants in the Juan Garden didn't sleep. When the servant saw him with chicken soup in his hand, he greeted Ethan, "Don't tell Hiram that I've been here. "
The servant answered quickly.
He walked down the stairs step by step with heavy steps. What should he do with the matter of Christa tomorrow?
When he passed by Jonny, Jonny suddenly called, "Dad -"
"What's up? Ethan stopped and looked at him with deep eyes, but his fingers were trembling. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. Was it his retribution today?
"Dad, don't be sad. It's all my fault. Alline's still young. As long as she takes good care of herself, she and Hiram will have another child in the future. Don't worry too much! For so many years, Jonny has always been obedient to Ethan. At this time, when he saw Ethan's expression, he suddenly felt that in this family, his father, who has always been scrupulous and decisive, was really old. His temples had already turned pale, and his eyes were no longer as shrewd and decisive as when he was young.
He had shouldered too much for the family, and he had done too much for the harmony of the family.
It was his fault. He had made a mistake in the past, which led to the brothers' discord. His father was worried about this family a lot. If his father hadn't protected Christa in the past, Christa would have died long ago. Now the Christa was still there, what else could he hope for?
Ethan felt that his breath was stuck in his throat, neither up nor down, and he was very uncomfortable. After a long time, he sighed and said softly, "Sinful debt! Sinful debt! After saying that, he turned around and left.
