Baird Lane clenched his fists and didn’t answer, the chill that emanated from his surroundings spoke volumes.
Hugh Dong, really became a vegetable!
“How did …” Christine White stumbled twice and almost fell to the ground.
The news hit her so greatly.
How could she not have imagined that Hugh Dong would become a vegetable!
Ming Ming … Obviously he was alive and kicking before, how come he’s a vegetable now?
“Baird, it’s fake right.” Christine White grabbed Baird Lane’s sleeve hopefully with great emotion, “You tell me it’s fake, Hugh Dong won’t become a vegetable, no!”
Baird Lane looked down at her faintly, “It’s true!”
“No. … I don’t believe it, I don’t believe it!” Christine White yelled.
She couldn’t accept that.
How can she accept that Hugh Dong has become a vegetable!
“You lied to me …” Christine White clutched her stomach and slowly crouched down, looking a little off.
Baird Lane sensed this and asked in a hushed voice, “What’s wrong with you?”
Christine White returned with a pained look on her face, “My stomach hurts …”
“Tummy ache?” Baird Lane was startled, remembering that a few hours ago, outside the resuscitation room, she’d had a stomachache too.
Only at that time, she said she was running too fast and that was what caused the stomach pain.
But now, looking at her like this, it didn’t seem to be caused by running too fast.
“Does it hurt?” Baird Lane stepped forward.
Christine White nodded weakly, “Well …”
The pain in her stomach was like something flipping and twisting, and she couldn’t catch her breath.
“Let’s see.” Baird Lane knelt down in front of her and reached out, ready to feel her stomach.
But just as his hand, just reached the heel of her stomach, he suddenly saw something, his breath caught and his face changed.
“What’s with the blood?” He sounded a little anxious.
Christine White also looked down as soon as she heard the word blood and was shocked, “Blood?”
Surprisingly, she didn’t even realize that she was actually bleeding down there.
“Baird…” Christine White got scared and subconsciously shouted Baird Lane’s name.
Baird Lane scooped her up in his arms and headed for the elevator on his feet, not forgetting to reassure her as he went, “Don’t be afraid, I’m here.”
Christine White tightly grabbed the collar of his chest and buried her head in his arms, her face pale to the extreme, the cold sweat at the corner of her forehead was seeping out, “I’m in so much pain ah …”
She said in a weak voice.
Baird Lane’s heart tightened, “I know, bear with me.”
“Can’t stand it, it hurts too much …” The corners of Christine White’s mouth twitched slightly before she passed out.
Baird Lane’s face changed completely when he sensed the unconsciousness of the man in his arms, and as he increased his pace he rushed out of the elevator, shouting, “Ives Norton!”
In the office, Ives Norton finally had some free time and was about to take a break when he plopped down on his desk and heard the voice of Baird Lane.
With a jolt of fear, he got up from his chair in a hurry and saw Baird Lane kicking the door open and rushing in with Christine White in his arms.
“What’s going on here?” Ives Norton asked.
Baird Lane yelled down, “Quick, save her!”
“Hmm?” Ives Norton looked toward his arms.
Upon seeing Christine White’s condition, his expression tightened and he grabbed the white coat on the shelf and headed for the door, “Follow me!”
Baird Lane follows up with Christine White in his arms.
An hour later, the lights went out in the operating room.
Ives Norton emerged from it tired and frazzled.
Baird Lane heard the commotion and got up from his cooler, “How is she?”
Ives Norton gave him a complicated look, “It’s a good thing it was in time or this baby wouldn’t have survived.”
“Children?” Baird Lane froze.
Ives Norton nodded with some emotion, “Yeah, she’s pregnant, over a month, and I have to say it’s a miracle, under the circumstances, that she’s pregnant.”
Hearing this, Baird Lane was stunned, and for a moment, he didn’t know what words to use to describe his feelings at this moment.
“I thought … that it’s almost impossible for her to get pregnant naturally?” He spat out as his thin lips pinched and slurped twice.
Ives Norton rubbed his distended temples, “That’s true, but as I just said, it’s a miracle, Baird, congratulations, you’re going to be a father.”
Dad …
Mentally reciting those two words, the corners of Baird Lane’s mouth hooked up slightly, his heart a little excited.
He’s going to be a father!
“Is she okay?” Baird Lane asked again, looking into the operating room.
Ives Norton yawned, “It’s nothing, it’s just over-exercise, plus irritation, so it moved the fetus, luckily she moved it in the hospital and was saved in time, otherwise this baby would have been lost.”
“I won’t let that happen!” Baird Lane said, clenching his fists.
Ives Norton patted his shoulder, “Take good care of her, her body is already weak, don’t let her emotions fluctuate too much, in addition Hugh Dong’s matter … You shouldn’t blame her, although Hugh Dong became like this because he saved her, but have you ever thought about why those people wanted to kill her? Isn’t it because of The Lane Family?”
“I know.” Baird Lane took a tired breath, “I don’t exactly blame her for that, I’ll apologize to her when she wakes up.”
“That’s good, I’ll go back to my office and get some sleep, I’m too tired after a couple of surgeries today.” Ives Norton withdrew his hand from his shoulder and stuck it in the pocket of his white coat, crossing over to leave.
Baird Lane didn’t stand in the way of stopping either, quietly watching the door to the operating room as he waited for Christine White to come out of it.
After waiting for about ten minutes or so, Christine White was finally wheeled out by the nurse.
Baird Lane followed and cared for her in the ward for half the night before finally leaving the hospital when Aunt Lucy arrived.
Christine White woke up at noon the next day, and woke up to find herself in a hospital bed with a hangnail and the look of a seriously ill person.
She didn’t know what was wrong with her, and after lifting her other hand to rub her cheek, she tried to sit up.
Just halfway through sitting down, the door to the hospital room was suddenly pushed open, and Aunt Lucy came in from outside carrying a thermos, and saw Christine White in action, and instantly darted over nervously.
“Ma’am, what are you doing, lie down, you can’t move!” Aunt Lucy thermos didn’t even have time to put it down before she held Christine White back down on the bed.
Christine White couldn’t argue with her, so she just lay back down and cried, “Aunt Lucy, why are you being so dramatic?”
“Which is an exaggeration on my part, it’s that ma’am your body really can’t move right now.” Aunt Lucy returned with a serious face.
Christine White saw how serious she was talking, and her own heart inexplicably tensed up with her, “Aunt Lucy … What’s wrong with me?”
Aunt Lucy was slightly stunned, “You don’t know, ma’am?”
Christine White shook her head, “All I know is that my stomach hurt and I bled and eventually passed out from the pain …”
“I see.” Aunt Lucy smiled indistinctly, “Ma’am, you’re pregnant!”
“What?” Christine White’s eyes rounded in shock, “Aunt Lucy, did you just say … I’m pregnant?”
“Yes.” Aunt Lucy nodded, “It’s only been over a month, your stomach pain yesterday was because of how much you exercised and the stimulation, so it moved the fetus, it’s a good thing that you were saved in time, or else this child wouldn’t have been saved.”
“The baby …” Christine White wasn’t even listening to the words that followed Aunt Lucy’s, all she had on her mind at the moment was the shocking news that she was pregnant.
She touched her belly incredulously, her mood unspeakably uplifted and excited.
She’s actually pregnant!
“Aunt Lucy, is this true? I’m really … pregnant?” Christine White, with tears of excitement in her eyes, eagerly begged for confirmation.
