After he hung up, I calmed down and asked him, “what’s the matter?”
Sean looked at me and frowned. He was silent for a moment and shook his head.”It’s OK.”
“You’re lying.”
Sean was definitely a poker face at work.
But he couldn’t control his emotions now.
It showed that this matter was very important.
I reached out and hugged Sean. I leaned my face against his stomach.”Tell me. I’m not afraid.”
Sean was silent for a moment and told me, “the police said they found the bodies of the black men by the river in the suburbs.”
“They’re dead?”I could hardly believe it. My tears had wet the gauze on my face.
I couldn’t help crying.
“Don’t be afraid. Even if you have an abortion, you can get pregnant again. I hope you live.”Sean tapped me.
I knew that at this time, he and I were ready for the worst.
But I was really scared.
I looked up at him.”Sean, do you think Molly has the ability to do this? There must be more powerful people. Whatever his purpose, there is no denying that they are really powerful. If we can’t find them, what should I do next time they hurt me again?”
Sean’s face didn’t change when I said it.
I knew that he had thought about it.
He patted me on the back of the head.”I’ll protect you and not let anyone hurt you.”
“How to protect me? Will you keep me in the house and not let me go anywhere?”
“…”
When I said that, Sean was silent.
I knew I was right.
Actually, Sean and I had been together for so long. Now he said he loved me, so he was very good to me.
But if he was emotional and desperate to control me, it was not impossible.
“Sean, let me go. I don’t deserve you.”
I didn’t want to bet on my baby.
What’s more, I had already decided to give up on him.
He didn’t speak and held me.
After supper, it was 8 o’clock.
Here came Barton again.”Have you thought about it? You can have an abortion later, but I suggest you take the blocker right away. If it exceeds 24 hours, the risk increases.”
“I…”
I hesitated.
I put my hand on my belly. Was this baby leaving me?
I didn’t know his existence until less than ten hours ago!
Sean knew I was hesitating. He came up to me and grabbed my hand and said gently, “you can get pregnant again, but if you really get sick, you will never be able to recover and get pregnant for the rest of your life.”
He was right.
“But…”I looked up at Sean.”I don’t want to.”
It was cruel.
Sean’s black eyes were also full of sadness, but he was still comforting me, “I promise our next baby will be born safely and grow up healthily, OK?”
“But…”
“Miss Carter, make a decision. You’re not racing against time, you’re racing against death. As long as you want, you will have another baby later.”
Barton persuaded me, too.
Maybe as long as I lived, there was hope.
I finally made up my mind, “OK.”
They were obviously relieved to hear me agree. Barton said quickly, “I’ll get the blocker. Just wait here.”
In less than 20 minutes, Barton brought the blocker.
I looked at the three pills in front of me and hesitated.
At this point, Sean received a text message. He looked at me and said, “eat it. When the black men were autopsied, one of them was found to have AIDS.”
Did I have to?
I looked at these three pills. As long as I ate them, my baby would die.
But Molly was right. One of those people really had AIDS.
She was too cruel. If I got sick, I may not have a baby in my life.
When I made up my mind to eat them, Sean’s cell phone rang again!
I saw it was an Internet call!
Was that Brian?
I looked at Sean with excitement and hope!
Sean hesitated and answered the phone. It turned out to be Brian. They had a video call.
Barton said, “well, I’ll go out first. I’ll be back in half an hour. It can’t be delayed any more.”
When Barton walked out, Brian said, “when I was checking this laptop, another video was sent by that virus file. I think It’s necessary for you to have a look.”
“OK.”
Sean agreed right away.
I was nervous!
Brian’s screen began to play the video from my laptop. I was shocked when I saw it!
In the laptop, “I” was naked and raped by five black men.
And the video was very clear. I could see the details clearly.
In the video, my eyes were closed and I was obviously in a coma.
As I stared at the screen and seemed to see something, Sean turned it off in a flash!
I looked up and wanted Sean to turn the video on, but I found him expressionless and angry.
He took the three pills and a glass of water and handed them directly to me.”Eat them quickly!”
His tone was very unfriendly.
Although I didn’t see clearly just now, I realized something.
“It’s not me. It’s Molly!”
Although the person in the video and I had the same hair style and hair color, it was Molly!
It occurred to me that Molly was wearing a wig. When I pulled off her wig, she was wearing a hair net. The hair in the net seemed to be black.
Did she prepared to take this video?
“I know you can’t accept it, but I can still tell you from her.”Sean’s tone was firm.
I was emotional.”Can’t I recognize myself?”
Sean looked at me and seemed to notice that his tone was bad. He took a deep breath and whispered, “I know you can’t take it, but I don’t mind. We have a long way to go. You are my Mrs. Jessop, and we can have many babies. We’ll have as many as you want, OK?”
With that, he wanted to hold my hand.
“No!”I quickly took my hand back and jumped out of bed. I tried to explain to him, “it’s not really me. Believe me, will you?”
I was not violated. I couldn’t get sick. I didn’t want to have an abortion!
