After Mike left, Patrick didn’t pay any more attention to him. He turned his head and looked at Jane, who was still unconscious in front of him.
It had been a long time since she had shown any signs of waking up, which made Patrick even more anxious. He sent someone to change Jane’s clothes that were stained with blood and laid her flat on the bed.
Her face was still very pale, looking like a dying patient. Patrick felt heartbroken. Soon after, the doorbell rang outside.
Patrick frowned and opened the door to see the doctor standing there. This was the best doctor around, but now that Jane was unconscious it wasn’t easy to transfer her back home so they had no choice but to have this doctor come over instead.
Although there were planes available for travel, it still took a lot of time for them to get here. “Doctor, thank you for coming.”
Patrick’s voice choked up as he stepped back and let the doctor in.
“This is what I should do,” replied the doctor while nodding his head as he carried his medical kit inside.
Originally, this place was meant for Jane to nurture the fetus. Due to Jane’s physical condition, Mike had arranged for the hospital’s well-prepared equipment to be brought in early.
As a result, Jane’s room was filled with various types of equipment, eliminating the need to go to the hospital specifically.
This provided Jane with a comfortable environment, where she could properly recover.
Patrick felt relieved as the servants brought in the equipment.
The doctor first conducted a full-body examination for Jane and then checked the condition of her abdomen. The fetus had not fully formed, and although there was a miscarriage, given Jane’s physical condition, a miscarriage was inevitable.
If the child had been lost earlier, it would have been beneficial for her body.
If the miscarriage occurred when the child was more developed, at that point, Jane’s body would not be able to sustain it.
“The patient’s emotional anxiety and tension have been detected, possibly due to excessive recent stress.”
The doctor examined and explained Jane’s condition while Patrick listened silently, his brows furrowing.
He never expected that during the days he was absent, Jane had suffered so much.
His gaze dimmed, and he silently promised himself that he would not let Jane suffer anymore.
The doctor handed several bottles of nutrient solution and medication to the servant beside him. “During these days when the madam was unconscious and unable to eat, we had to support her temporarily with nutrient solutions. These bottles of medication should be administered to her in the evening.”
The doctor instructed the servants about the details while Patrick quietly took note.
Soon, an intravenous tube was inserted into Jane’s delicate hand, and Patrick watched with a pang of heartache.
Just a few days ago, Jane was hospitalized and received injections, and now she had to endure the same suffering again.
Patrick stood by Jane’s bed, leaning down to caress her full forehead and gently tracing his fingers down her straight nose.
Jane was truly extraordinarily beautiful, but her body had been broken down.
For several consecutive days, Jane relied on these medications and nutrient solutions to get through each day. Patrick changed her clothes daily, helped her turn over, and occasionally wiped her body.
After several days, Jane still lay quietly in bed, her eyes tightly closed, causing Patrick to feel anxious.
In the morning, the warm sunlight streamed through the curtains, gradually bringing a rosy color to Jane’s complexion. Her fingers also moved slightly.
Patrick leaned over Jane’s bed. For several consecutive days, he had been watching her fall asleep like this.
“Patrick…”
Just as Patrick was about to get up, a familiar voice sounded in his ear.
He quickly turned around and saw Jane’s eyes slightly opening.
“You’re awake.”
Patrick’s heart was filled with extreme excitement as he leaned down and gently supported Jane.
“Have some water.”
Jane’s voice was hoarse, and Patrick turned to fetch a cup of water for her. Even though she had been unconscious for these days, water had always been prepared for her in the room.
Jane took a sip and then handed the cup back to Patrick, shaking her head. She then looked at the puncture marks on her hand.
“You were administered fluids by the doctor while you were unconscious.”
Patrick replied, seeing a somewhat despondent expression on Jane’s face, deciding not to say much.
“My child, is it still there…”
In the next moment, Jane asked this question.
During her unconsciousness, she felt a chilling sensation beneath her body. When she looked down, she saw fresh blood seeping through her dress…
Patrick opened his mouth, knowing that Jane was about to ask him this question. Despite thinking countless times about how to answer her in his mind, when faced with the moment, he couldn’t utter a word.
“Is it still there?”
Jane asked again, but this time her emotions were somewhat agitated.
“The doctor said you shouldn’t get too upset,” Patrick worried about Jane’s health and sighed, “We will have children in the future.”
“It’s gone…”
Jane’s pupils contracted as she touched her flat abdomen. A few days ago, she had truly felt a small life quietly growing in her belly. Now, that feeling had vanished.
“We will have more.”
Patrick couldn’t bear to see her like this. He walked forward and embraced Jane’s shoulders, feeling a deep sadness in his heart.
Jane had been imprisoned here because of this child, and now that the child was gone, she had lost her last consolation.
Tears welled up in Jane’s eyes, silently streaming down. Patrick knew that the more painful it was, the quieter she cried.
“It’s alright, cry if you want to.”
Patrick held Jane in his arms, gently wiping the tears from her face.
“He left me when he was so little.”
Jane’s choked voice sounded. She knew that this time, there were significant reasons because of her.
She even had a dream where the child waved at her from afar, crying and telling Jane, “Mom doesn’t love me, I have to leave.”
“He will watch over you from heaven.”
Patrick said tenderly, and in the next moment, the door to the room opened.
“Jane is awake?”
It was Mike entering through the door. He knew he had no reason to stand here now.
But everything started because of him, so he had to come and check on Jane’s condition.
When Jane saw Mike, her face immediately turned sour.
“Why are you here?”
Jane questioned, causing Mike to feel embarrassed.
Patrick also harbored resentment towards Mike in his heart, so he didn’t pay him any attention either.
This made Mike’s situation even more difficult.
“Just checking on your condition.”
Clearly, Mike’s tone was displeased. Although it was his own doing, Jane was the wife of the Pansy family, so he couldn’t tolerate such an attitude from her.
“Have you finished? Once you’re done, you can leave.”
Jane said coldly, thinking about how Mike had imprisoned her here these past few days. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been in such a state of mind.
