Book:The Selfish CEO Published:2024-6-2

“Ah…” Suddenly, a groan of painful cries rang out. Broken, tragic, at once seized his heart. Dropping his eyes to look at her, the piece of paper in his hand suddenly loosened and fluttered twice in the air, falling to the ground.
She held the small of her back and moaned in pain. She only felt that a hot tide was slowly gushing out from her body underneath her, and she cried out in pain at that moment.
The baby is leaving … or is it going to go …
No!
No! Don’t be so cruel to her …
“Andrea Jones, how about it? Bear with me! I’ll take you to the hospital!” Neal Williams, looking no better than she did, had scooped her up across the room.
Seeing the blood flowing down her body, her face had turned as white as death. He forced himself not to think, only to stride out. She was in so much pain that it was like holes had been drilled in her body, unable to say a word, only helplessly hugging him and bawling.
The blood all over her body and tears all over her face messed up his heart and stirred up the pain. At this moment, he even felt that the child is actually not so important, whether she stays or not is not important, as long as she is happy, as long as she is healthy!
Whatever she wants, wherever she wants to go!!!
Carrying the blood-covered her into the car, he painfully planted a deep kiss on her miserable white face, “Andrea, be strong! And …”
“I love you!”
She shuddered and closed her eyes, her eyelashes wet again.
Outside the operating room, he held his head in pain and crouched on the floor in dismay. The doctor’s voice echoed back and forth in his head, gripping every nerve he had.
“The fetus has long since lost its fetal heart!”
“The patient is hemorrhaging and now his life is in danger at any time!”
He regrets it so much!
How painful and torturous it had been for her to have a child without a fetal heart! At that time, he was not by her side. Now … himself was foolish enough to pour salt on her bloody wounds in a big way!
How could he blame her for being cruel without knowing anything?
What a jerk!
The guilt and heartache drove him to madness. Desperate to vent his emotions at the moment, he slammed his fist on the wall, but the pain that had built up in his heart only grew more and more intense …
He slammed one fist hard after another, as if he was punishing himself.
The operating room lights, abruptly dimmed.
He was startled, his body tensed up and held his breath as he stared at the door.
The door was opened and the white-robed doctor came out of it first. He quickly ran over, “Doctor, how is the situation? Where is she? Is she okay?!”
Anxiously pursued, his voice has changed its tone.
The doctor took the mask off and said with relief, “Fortunately, the mother’s condition is still okay, but the child … I believe you know that there is no way to keep it.”
Neal Williams had mixed feelings in his heart, and could not say what it was like. The bitterness in his throat made him unable to utter a single extra word, and he finally just nodded heavily. At this moment, the sound of grunting rollers came from the operating room, he and the doctor informed, and then approached a few steps.
She was lying there, with blood all over the sheets and her cheeks too pale to see. Because of the anesthesia, her eyes were still closed at the moment, but the tears in the corners of her eyes never stopped. That look is fragile and pitiful, so that the nurses aside are sighing.
His heart stirred like a knife, reaching out to hold her cold little hand, painfully covering his lips, as if to convey his warmth to her, but in return was more tears from her.
Now, more warmth … can no longer warm her heart …
Doctors and nurses, in and out. The drip was changed from bottle to bottle. Her eyes were always closed, as if she didn’t dare to face this reality. It was only after two days of lying quietly that she finally opened her eyes. But her eyes were listless and her gaze was lax.
Sister Chen boiled the porridge and looked at her in such a state of pity. Just pouring the porridge out of the thermos, Neal Williams already carried it over, “I’ll feed it.”
This kind of thing should have been done by their own men, Chen did not grab to do. The company’s main goal is to help Andrea Jones rock the bed up and carefully add two pillows behind her.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to the market. Neal Williams didn’t give up, patiently coaxing her, “Don’t you appreciate Sister Chen’s cooking? Eat some so you can get well faster.”
She bit her lips lightly, still did not move, and did not say anything. Chen sighed, “If you can’t eat it, forget it, put it here and eat it later.”
Looking at Neal Williams, Sister Chen added: “It’s no wonder she was so sad. Miss Jones was taken to the hospital by ambulance that day and kept calling Mr. Williams on your phone, but no matter what, she couldn’t get through.”
When Chen said this, she was a little indignant. As a woman, she knows best what women need. At this moment Andrea Jones’s heart chill, and completely understandable.
The hand holding the porridge shook hard, and Neal Williams looked at her with pain. She hadn’t even said anything to herself …
“Sister Chen, you have to stop saying …” Andrea Jones’ voice had choked up, as if she didn’t want to see Neal Williams again, and she twisted her face away from him, facing him only with the back of her head. Tears, dripping wet on the pillow.
“Andrea, listen to me, that day was actually …,” Neal Williams said as he put down his porridge and tried to explain.
“Forget it …” The words, only halfway through, Andrea Jones had cut him off. Voice weak, some trembling, “Forget it, Neal Williams, I simply do not want to hear …”
She closed her eyes with a broken heart, her eyelashes trembling slightly, “No more reasons are useless … the child is gone is gone …”
She is so tired.
She believed that he was also tired …
They, no one is better than anyone else …
Neal Williams closed his lips, suddenly unable to justify himself anymore. Regardless of the hardships, he did not take care of their mother and son, did not appear when they needed him the most, this fault, already can not be forgiven.
After five days of recuperation, Andrea Jones was to be discharged from the hospital. Neal Williams hurried to the hospital from outside and saw her changing into her own clothes and getting out of bed.
The face sank, without saying a word, he instantly picked her up and put her back on the bed.
“Neal Williams!” she tried to struggle, but Neal Williams just forcefully pinned her to the bed and warned in a low voice: “Don’t move, so you don’t tear the wound and then you’ll have to stay in the hospital longer! ”
“Get me out of the hospital! I have a lot of very important things to do!” Andrea Jones braced herself.
“With all this tossing and turning, do you want to have any more children in the future?” Neal Williams was a little annoyed that she didn’t know how to take care of her body, and his tone couldn’t help but increase a few points, “What’s more important than your own body?”
“…” Feeling Neal Williams’ forced stare, she only bit her lip and lowered her head, not answering.
“Why don’t you say anything? What’s so important, anyway? Hmm?” Neal Williams continued to press, and she just wouldn’t say anything, only avoiding his eyes sheepishly.
He looked down at her from above, with downcast eyes. The tall body, enveloping the frail her. Looking at her flickering eyes, a trace of pain flashed under his eyes.
“Lie well in the hospital, your matter … I will help you to do!”
She froze and looked up, “You know what I’m going to do?”
Neal Williams did not answer immediately, but slowly straightened up and took out the admission letter from his pocket. Dark eyes stared down at the piece of paper, fingers tense and straight. As if he was afraid of backtracking, he pressed the paper heavily under her pillow and made a quick promise, “I’ll get you the visa and passport you need, so you can stay in the hospital and rest.”
Looking at him, Andrea Jones has been unable to speak.
He was willing to let himself go after all …
This, too, really seems to be their only way out …
She thought she would be relieved, but now her heart is as hard as a boulder. Her hand fumbled, reached under the pillow, touched the notice, and she held it tightly, not letting go of her fingers.
“Lie down and rest easy.” Neal Williams pulled the covers carefully over her.
She curled up, closed her eyes, and opened her arms to wrap them tightly around herself.
The old man has not been discharged from the hospital yet either. He is in a better condition today than when he collapsed that day.
Neal Williams handed the newly purchased flowers to Bonnie Williams, who unwrapped them and helped put them in. Turning his head to look at him, he saw that he was in a trance and couldn’t help but frown.
Out of the old man’s ward, Bonnie Williams just said, “I heard that little girl Ashley Williams said you were locked up in Villa Huan Yu by the old man a few days ago, and had to let you take Penny Brown?”
“… hmm.” He only faintly responded, his dull voice leaking his deep exhaustion.
Bonnie Williams snorted, “The elders of the two families are all unbelievable. I think, simply tell the old man and the old woman that Andrea is pregnant with their little great-grandson. They’ve wanted to hold their little great-grandson for a long time.”
Neal Williams’ heart tingled, and he only pursed his lips for a long time, silent, before Bonnie Williams noticed that something was wrong with him and narrowed his eyes, his pretty eyes examining him, “What’s going on?”
“Sister, I’m tired and want to go back to rest.” He would not answer.
Bonnie Williams frowned and held his shoulders down. Sensitively, she asked, “Something happened to the baby?”
“Yes, no more.”
Bonnie Williams’ face changed, “Who did this? How could a good child be lost for no reason? Did you find out?”
Neal Williams took the hand she rested on his shoulder down, his eyes looked straight at her and spoke, but his voice changed tone, “She had low progesterone and the baby was malnourished, so … at almost five months, there was no fetal heart.”
He has tried very hard to make light of the situation and keep his emotions calm.
Bonnie Williams was not feeling very well either and reassured him, “Don’t worry, you still have plenty of chances … to get there later.”
Is there still a chance?
I’m afraid, it’s difficult …
He didn’t say anything, just barely lifted his lips.
“I want to go to the hospital and see her… where is she staying?” Bonnie Williams asked.
“It’s better not to go.” Neal Williams declined her kind offer, “She’s having a hard time right now, and you going over there will just stir up her sadness all over again.”
“You’re right about that too.” Bonnie Williams sighed and gave her brother another encouraging pat. “I’ll help you persuade Mom and Grandpa again about Penny Brown. Even if they do manage to tie you up in the auditorium, there’s no way they’ll be able to cut off your hand for you to sign at the Civil Service.”
Neal Williams didn’t say anything else, just looked out the window far away, as if in thought.
Twenty days later, she was discharged from the hospital and Neal Williams came to pick her up in his car.
Sitting in the car, he still bent over to fasten her seat belt as he had done every time in the past. She did not refuse, nor did she avoid it. When he hung his head to look at her, the two people were very close to each other, each other’s eyes on each other, at that moment, clearly in the eyes are only each other’s existence, but …
But it all becomes so blurred …
