Chapter 47
Samuel carried Shelmaine into the car. She opened her eyes for a while and held her stomach. The pain made her grit her teeth. She could vaguely hear his voice, but it was very faint. She was in so much pain that her face was pale.
When his voice kept ringing in her ears, she was irritated. She didn’t want to hear his voice. She mumbled, “Stay away from me.”
He seemed to have said something again, but she didn’t hear what he said as her ears were ringing. She couldn’t hear anything clearly, and her head felt heavy.
Upon arriving at the hospital, Samuel carried Shelmaine to the doctor. He was in a panic. After she was pushed into the room for treatment, the doctor came to him to ask about
the situation.
He stared at a spot and became absent–minded. He only returned to his senses after the doctor kept calling him. Then, he answered the doctor’s questions properly. “Who is she to you?”
“My ex–wife.”
“How many months has it been since she was pregnant?”
“Five months,” Samuel blurted out. He still remembered the month Shelmaine became pregnant
“How did she end up in this state? Did she fall?*
“I’m not sure.” Samuel indeed had no idea what happened. He lowered his gaze and all he could see was the image of Shelmaine’s pale face from moments ago. If something happened…
When Samuel hung out with Julien the day before, palien brought up shelmaine and asked if Samuel knew her. Samuel had asked him, “What answer do you want to hear?” “Just tell me.” Julien continued, “That day, she wanted to leave the moment she saw you at the restaurant. Do you know each other?”
Not only did Samuel and Shelmaine know each other, but she was his ex–wife. Nevertheless, he didn’t tell Julien about it.
Julien then said, “I saw you two talking by the side of the road too. I wondered if you knew each other and if she didn’t like you. Why did she run away upon seeing you? Samuel, what did you do?”
Julien observed Samuel’s expression, wanting to see if there was a change in his expression. On the other hand, Samuel was calm. He took a sip of alcohol and smiled. “Do you like ber?
Julien didn’t deny it.
“You don’t know her well,” Samuel said.
“I just think that since she has gotten a divorce and is single now, I can pursar her,” Julien said calmly. He wasn’t someone to care about these things. It was rare to meet someone compatible.
At once, Samuel’s expression turned cold. He immediately said, “She isn’t suitable for you. Besides, she’s still pregnant. Do you want to be a father right away?
Julien didn’t mind it. “I don’t mind it. As long as she’s willing to be with me, I can do it. It’s just that I don’t even know her current situation. We aren’t that close yet. But I believe that it won’t be a problem if we continue to hang out.”
Not a problem..
Samuel held the glass tightly as wins popped out at the back of his hand. He looked at Julien and smiled. “Julien, don’t hit on her.”
He didn’t know if Julien noticed anything after his warming because he left right after saying that. A while later, shelmatne was pushed out of the emergency room. She was still unconscious, and her face was pale.
The doctor said, “The mother and the child are fine, but she needs to be admitted into the hospital for further checkups. In addition to that, her condition isn’t good. She had been taking injections to prevent miscarriage. If such a thing happens again, the child may be gone.”
“Injections to prevent miscarriage?”
“That’s right”
Samuel didn’t know about it at all. It was impossible for Shelmine to tell him. After she was moved to a ward, he went to complete the admission procedures.
When he returned to the ward, she was already awake. She still had a breathing tube, and her gaze was blank. The moment she saw him, she frowned, was clear that she didn’t
