“…” No voice responded to her.
“You can’t force Sunnyto get rid of the baby, as long as she refuses to sign, no hospital would dare to perform such an operation. Besides, no matter what, this child is also yours, it’s our THE Xiao Family’s. How can you bear to kill your own child?”
Jerry Xiao’s voice, finally, came out, throwing his voice, without any room for maneuver, “After half a month, the child must be removed! Moreover, this child is not mine! It is yours and Sunny Qin’s!”
“How can you say that? It’s your blood that’s flowing from this child.”
“Enough!” Jerry Xiao gulped, his tone chilling and disappointed, but also deeply helpless and exhausted.
…
Zoey stood outside the door, her whole body shivering, her face so pale that she looked like she was going to collapse in the next instant. The thermos in her hand was so warm, but right now she was so cold that her teeth were chattering. If she hadn’t heard his voice in person, Zoey couldn’t believe the cruelty of it all.
Just now, how she wanted to hear his retort … But no …
The child, truly, has his blood in his veins …
Why is this happening? Why be so cruel to her? No wonder, he was so embarrassed when she was coming to visit …
Disheartened and cold. The body, even the veins, seemed to be frozen.
Woodenly, he tossed the thermos in his hand into a side trash can. Woodenly, he turned around and left.
Tears, swirling in the eyes, but … so strange, not a drop can flow …
It turns out that, really, hurt to the depths, is not even tears …
Lost soul walking in the long corridor, mind, only a blank. Resentment, anger, anger, annoyance, at this moment there is no … remaining, only numbness …
…
Jerry Xiao felt that the ward was so stuffy that he simply pulled open the door of the ward and walked out. Deep fatigue invaded, he pressed the sharp pain on his brow, leaning against the wall to keep himself from collapsing, but …
In the next instant, when he saw the thermos bottle inside the trash can, his whole body was stunned. A sense of foreboding welled up in the bottom of his heart, and he bent over to turn over the trash can, turning out the thermos.
Feng was returning from paying the bill and was a bit surprised to see him like this, “What did the president lose?”
Jerry Xiao didn’t bother with him and only flipped out the thermos. In the next second, his chest tightened, and he threw the thermos bottle haphazardly into Feng’s arms and rushed out with a pale face.
Zoey!
She was here … And, she must have heard something …
The thought of this possibility made the heart rack with pain. His physical condition was even worse, and when he ran out a few steps, he was panting sharply. But, he couldn’t give up and kept going.
Afon stood there looking at the thermos in his hand, always felt a little familiar. After pondering for a long time, he suddenly remembered that it was Zoey’s, and was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly pushed the door in to put down the bill, and did not explain, and hurriedly rushed out again.
When he rushed out, he only saw that his boss hadn’t gone to the elevator yet, and he hurriedly jogged to follow him, “President, should I go after Secretary Baker? The thermos is still so hot, it must have just come in, it can’t have gotten too far.”
Jerry Xiao did not return his words, just stubborn, cold face toward the elevator. Grabbing the cell phone in his hand, he kept dialing the familiar number, but no one answered at the other end.
The panic and fear in her heart was exactly the same as when she had stormed out of his office a few months ago. Even, more …
He knew that if he lost it this time, it would really be forever … the remaining three months, and it would never be possible to get her forgiveness.
He’ll be dead to the world … surely, dead to the world …
Zoey …
Come back, OK? At least, give him a chance to explain …
Constantly poking at the knob for the elevator to go down, but, damn it, the elevator wouldn’t wait. The numbers were jumping up, one by one, going up.
Jerry Xiao’s heart was burning with anxiety, and when he thought that she must be grieving alone right now, he only felt that he couldn’t wait even for a moment, and was about to head for the stairway. Ah Feng stopped him with a hand, “President, this is a building!”
Before he could reach the first floor, not to mention that the elevator had already waited, with his current physical condition, I’m afraid that he would simply faint halfway there.
Jerry Xiao had to stop walking, but still couldn’t hide the mania in his heart.
Venting his anger, he slammed his cell phone hard on the ground, and with a loud “pop–“, the phone was split in pieces, startling all the people present. Everyone shook their heads and shrank to the side, not daring to approach this high-risk source.
“The elevator is here!” Ah Feng saw the LED light jumped to, exclaimed, only to hear “ding -” a crunch, the elevator door, slowly open …
Jerry Xiao almost immediately raised his steps to break into the elevator. But, see the elevator door open that moment, his whole person froze on the spot …
That familiar figure was standing inside the elevator. On his face, the tear tracks were all over the place, and new tears were still falling down like pearls on a broken string.
Seeing him outside the door, she stood on the spot and suddenly cried out in pain, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances and pains that were roiling in her heart.
It was as if his heart had been torn to pieces by her cries. Afraid that she would disappear in front of his eyes again, Jerry Xiao took a step forward to go in, but Zoey rushed out one step faster and jumped into his arms.
“You give me an explanation! I want an explanation …” she choked back a sob, her hands clenching into fists as she lunged at him in anger. “Why did you do this to me? How could you go so far as to have a child with her? I hate you! Hate you!!!”
Crying in despair, resignation and pain …
The people around, listening to that painful questioning, only felt staggered. In the next second, they all looked at the questioned person with contempt again.
Hmph! So it’s a bitchy guy with two feet!
“Don’t hate me Zoey , I forbid you to hate me!” Jerry Xiao held her whole body tightly, as if he was afraid that if he loosened his grip just a little, she would disappear from his arms. She pounced on herself and he stood firm, letting her vent. “Believe me, I haven’t touched her, not even a finger!”
He explained anxiously, afraid that if he slowed down a little, her sadness would increase, her resentment would grow a layer.
“Ch, how can there be a child if it hasn’t been touched?” The onlookers, the passersby, couldn’t help but snort coldly.
Jerry Xiao had no time to care about those cold words, he only hugged Zoey , only cared about Zoey, and locked her tearful eyes in a deep sleep, “The baby is a test tube baby! My mom and Sunny Qin hid it from me and took sperm from a sperm bank. Zoey, believe me, I didn’t know about this farce until a moment ago, just like you.”
Zoey is completely shocked by the fact that he’s telling the truth.
Along with that, the passersby on one side, were stunned.
Surprisingly, it would be such a ridiculous thing to do?
Zoey didn’t come to her senses for a long time, and with her eyes wide open, she listened to his explanation. Originally, she had been stoned by Sunny Qin’s pregnancy, and in her heart, she only wanted to never see him again in her life, but when she came to her senses, she couldn’t help but walk back.
How could she just walk away without even listening to his explanation? Even if she didn’t listen to the explanation, she should at least come back and teach him a good lesson.
But, to my surprise, his explanation is so amazing …
“They … did this to force you to compromise?” Zoey stopped pouncing on him and looked at him in a daze. Jerry Xiao shook his head and took Zoey into his arms, “Don’t pay any attention to what they think, it doesn’t matter! I won’t have the baby, and I will never allow her to have it!”
Zoey suddenly felt heartbroken, heartbroken for the man in front of her.
The existence of such a child did not come from his will, and even, no one had considered his will at all. He is already so unbearable, why can’t Sunny Qin leave him alone for the remaining three months?
Zoey’s heart clenches and tightens …
She suddenly backed away from his arms, took his hand, and headed for Ward 0.
“Zoey ?” Jerry Xiao looked at her strangely. She didn’t turn around, just continued to walk towards the hospital room. When she reached the door, she knocked on it and heard the admission from inside before finally pushing her way in.
The three people in the hospital room froze for a moment when they saw Zoeycoming in. Sunny Qin just woke up, half-sitting up from the bed, and looked at Zoey, her eyes going cold.
“Uncle Xiao, Mrs. Zhan.” Zoey let go of Jerry Xiao and greeted the two elders first. Both of them originally had deep prejudice against Zoey because of their eldest son Chuck, but since Jerry said what happened that night, they didn’t know whether to blame her or their own son.
After a few moments of thought, he eventually just nodded faintly in response.
“Can I have a moment alone with her?” Zoey requested, giving a slight sideways glance at Sunny Qin, who was lying on the bed.
Zhan Qintian did not hesitate, after looking at Zoey, he carried his hand and walked out. Mrs. Zhan seemed to be worried about something and didn’t go out immediately, but Sunny Qin opened her mouth, “Auntie, don’t worry, I’ll be fine, don’t worry for me.”
Hearing her words, Mrs. Zhan only felt a little more at ease. Walking over to the bedside, she patted Sunny Qin’s hand, “Well, if something happens, just call, we’re all outside. You can’t get any more emotional, the child is important.”
Mrs. Zhan’s simple words clearly showed her pity and expectation for the child. Zoey glanced at Jerry, who was standing on the side with a cold expression like ice, and felt only heartache and sorrow. His will, his mood, why these two women who say they love him, but do not care at all?
Could it be that this is their ‘love’?
All of them went out. For a while, in the ward, only Zoey and Sunny Qin were left.
Without waiting for Zoeyto speak first, Sunny Qin was the first to snatch her words triumphantly, “I’m pregnant, and, the baby is Jerry’s. Zoey Baker, we own the same thing now, and maybe in the future, the Xiao Family’s fortune will be divided equally between us.”
“Is this your purpose?” Zoey coldly looked at Sunny Qin, “Knowing that Jerry won’t live much longer, knowing that Mrs. Zhan just wants the Xiao Family to have a queen, you are still so unhesitating in conceiving this child?”
Sunny Qin snorted, “Don’t come to question me with your mouth as if you’re noble. Since you knew Jerry was going to die, didn’t you still cling to him? After all these years of not letting the kids recognize their father, how come you can’t wait to recognize him when he’s about to leave? Zoey Baker, aren’t you just eyeing the Xiao Family’s money?” . “Not everyone is as selfish and greedy as you! You don’t deserve to be a mother when you can even use your child as a bargaining chip!”
