As if Xiao Yue didn’t want to listen to me anymore, she snatched the stick from my hand and drew it towards me again.
“Do you think Zhao Dong will still want to marry you if he knows you killed his baby?” I leaned against the wall with a slight smile on my face, feigning my composure.
I managed to make myself look unconcerned, but my nerves tensed up inside, which made me sweat all over.
I was really worried that she would be out of her mind and beat me into a miscarriage.
What I said finally worked! Xiao Yue put the stick down while gasping out of anger.
She stared at me with eyes full of jealousy and ruthlessness.
After quite a while, she left with great reluctance.
At night, I saw Zhao Dong being called away by Xiao Yue in a hurry after he arrived at my door.
My tense nerves finally relaxed a little. Wrapped in the thin quilt, I fell sound asleep in spite of the bruises.
Since Xiao Yue had believed what I said, it seemed very likely that I could find an opportunity to escape!
The next day, Xiao Yue was worried that I might tell Zhao Dong about my pregnancy, so she still tried to keep him from coming to me.
In the end, seizing the opportunity while Zhao was away for his own business, I asked Xiao Yue to come to my room for negotiation.
“Anyway, I’m done with Zhao Dong. As long as you let me go, I won’t tell him about the baby.”
After finishing my words, I was thrown into a state of agitation.
Xiao Yue was quite different from the one she used to be, so for the moment, I couldn’t figure out what was on her mind.
But I still wanted to try my luck. I bet she would choose to stay with Zhao Dong.
Fortunately, I won the bet again this time. Xiao Yue seemed to have acquiesced to my words. She nodded slightly and left with a grim look.
I could hardly contain my excitement, but finally, I managed to calm myself down and quietly waited until late at night when Xiao Yue unlocked the door. I walked out cautiously with my heart pounding.
The moment I breathed the fresh air outside, I almost burst into tears.
Although I finally escaped, I didn’t dare to take it lightly. Despite my bruises all over, I ran as fast as possible, covering my belly with my hands.
The first thing that came to me was to go to Quan Shaoze for help.
However, Xiao Yue caught up with me before I could run far.
“Anything else?” My heart sank when I saw her familiar gloomy look. At the thought that she might go back on her words, I moved back instinctively.
She didn’t reply but began to pull me back with a sneer.
To prevent my baby from getting hurt, I gave up struggling after a few attempts.
If I knew that Xiao Yue took me back to make me abort, I would have put up a desperate fight to escape.
Therefore, after she forced the abortion pill down my throat with the chilly water, for a moment, I really wished that I could die with my baby.
“Ha! Want to leave? You wish! Now you have lost your baby, show me how you’ll keep Zhao Dong!” Xiao Yue said smugly. She cast a scornful glimpse of me lying on the floor like a corpse before walking away.
The floor was freezing, and it chilled me to the bones.
My baby was dead.
This idea kept haunting me.
After pondering for a while, I suddenly sat up and put my finger down my throat, hoping I could force the aborticide out by inducing vomiting.
Tears streamed down my cheeks uncontrollably.
I still held onto the last glimmer of hope that a miracle would happen.
