In the hospital, the surgeon walked into the delivery room with rapid footsteps to prepare for the operation. A group of nurses pushed Josephine who was covered in blood and rushed into the operating room. Reginald rushed forward as soon as he could. When his eyes met Josephine’s face, pale as a ghost, and his eyes widened in horror as his gaze slowly moved down.
Blood was everywhere, her skirt, her legs, the bedding beneath her, all stained with blood. Her whole body seemed to lie in a pool of blood, so…… fragile that it was as if she had not a breath.
A pair of blood-covered hands reached for his sleeve, and Josephine was in tears, her voice dying, “Save…… save me and the babies……”
Regan, who arrived at the same time with Reginald, hurriedly stepped forward towards the surgeon, “This is Mr. Barnes, how is Mrs. Barnes now?”
“Mrs. Barnes is already eight months pregnant. Although she was not hit by a car, she had a miscarriage due to excessive shock. She had lost too much blood when she was sent to the hospital, and the situation is extremely critical now. It is difficult to keep both the adult and the child, and Mr. Barnes should make a decision as soon as possible. We will do our best.”
Reginald stood there, his tall body couldn’t stop trembling slightly, and he was almost choked.
He couldn’t say a word. His body stiffened, his eyes were covered with shocks.
Only after the doctor’s words were finished, an urgent voice from the nurse on one side came into Reginald’s ears with a bang, “The mother’s water has broken, and the placenta has been stripped, so she needs to deliver the babies as soon as possible!”
“The operation must be performed now!”
“Mr. Barnes.”
Regan stood in front of Reginald and looked at his hands that kept trembling, “What should we do?”
Reginald’s hands were clenched into fists, veins rippling. Just now, Ragen had found out that Josephine went to the Horizontal Hotel for the first time, and she had never had any consumption records before. Aurelia and the man they took away had their rooms booked as early as noon. That was to say, Josephine appeared there and bumped into Aurelia being drugged, was completely an accident.
In his heart, Josephine had a clean and tender appearance, but a ruthless and calculating heart, and he had never had any no good impression about her, but now……
Ragen could see Reginald’s reluctance at a glance. Obviously, this reluctance was towards Josephine. Watching Josephine’s breathing getting more and more weak, he hurriedly opened his mouth to urge, “You said you married Josephine just for the child, now the situation is critical. If you still waste your time on making a decision, even the child can’t be saved, we can’t wait any longer!”
“You, you’re right, I……” Reginald replied in a trembling voice.
He couldn’t deny that he had kept Josephine until now, for the sake of his child in her belly. According to his original plan, he would divorce Josephine as soon as the child was born successfully. But now, why was his having heartache?
Josephine’s eyes widened and looked at Reginald in tears. Just then, a sudden sharp pain came from her abdomen. She instantly changed her face, only to feel a burst of hot stuff gushing out of her body, and suddenly her brain went blank.
“Josephine! Josephine-!”
Josephine opened her eyes wide, but could not see anything. All the nurses and doctors immediately rushed up to stop her bleeding and resuscitate her again. The nurses had already prepared the anesthetic and handed it to the doctors. Her whole body kept trembling, finally she heard Reginald’s difficult voice above her head, “All I want is the babies……”
The words, like a sharp knife, sank hard into her heart all at once.
Her mind went blank, her consciousness was gradually withdrawn. Her tears mixed with blood flowed down, and she fainted completely.
