Henry sat up immediately, but it was too late. Michael entered the door and saw them on the bed together. Any doubts he had in his mind were shattered when he saw them, and it broke him out of his reverie.
He was not there to see them so intimate with each other. He had only woken up from a coma three days ago. All he could think about was Elena’s chalk-white face and how she trembled when she left the island. He had immediately gone to check on her. He wanted to make sure she was alright and the baby as well. He was surprised to find out that she had been admitted to the hospital.
“Big Brother…” Henry got up hastily from the bed; he was fidgety when he saw Michael.
Elena grabbed his wrist and gently shook his hand. “I have something to say to Eldest Young Master Williams, why don’t you go out first?”
“You both…” Henry looked at her.
Michael coldly said, “Tell him to get out! Get lost!”
It was Elena who said she wanted to talk to him, so he was curious to hear what the woman had to say to herself. If…she was willing to return to his side…
Henry hesitated, but Elena shook her head at him. Henry finally went out and stood guard at the end of the corridor with Ryan. Michael and Elena wanted to talk. No one should interrupt or eavesdrop on their conversation.
Michael stared at the girl on the bed. Her face was pale, and she looked frail. He was not better himself; he was as pale as her.
“You…”
“I have decided not to have the baby. Eldest Young Master Williams, my apologies for that,” Elena calmly said.
Michael was stunned; he was unable to react at all. What did she mean? He went to her immediately after he regained consciousness. He did not expect to hear something like that from her!
“The doctor said that I was too weak to be pregnant at this time, so I simply asked him to take the baby… away.”
“What are you saying?” Michael felt as if his world had gone dark. His body shuddered uncontrollably. It took him quite a lot of effort to keep his balance. He rushed toward her and clasped her wrist.
“What did you say? Repeat it to me!”
“It is the same no matter how many times I say it! The baby is gone! Look at this drip. Do you see this anti-inflammatory drip?”
She reached out to the bedside table and took the list of drips that she was on and chucked it at him. The list came with the drips.
“Anti-inflammatory drips! Don’t you get it? I can’t be on this kind of drip if I’m with a baby! I can now because the child is gone!”
“You’re lying! You’re lying to me!”
How could she be so ruthless? How could she kill their baby?
“Michael, I don’t want to give you any room for illusions! I have asked the doctor to remove the child… argh!”
There was a tingling sensation on her neck before she realized that Michael had wrapped his hands around them. His fingers tightened, and his eyes were scarlet! What was in his mind when he decided to go there?
Did he think that she had something to tell him? He would have forgiven her if she told him she regretted her choices and chose to return to him! He wanted to forgive her! Then, she killed their child!
Michael thought he was a wimp! What kind of a person had he become for that woman? He had given up and sacrificed so much for her. He would even give up his career, his life, and even his dignity for her. What did he get in return? That woman had betrayed him again and again!
“How dare you kill my child! How dare you!”
His five fingers tightened, and his eyes glowered with a beast-mode scarlet luster. His breathing was labored, and he looked like a demon! He had no idea what he had done.
He did not know anything besides the fact that his child was gone. The woman had killed his child!
“Elena! Give me back my child! Give me back my child!”
Elena’s eyes widened in shock. She opened her mouth, but she could not breathe at all. She was no match to Eldest Young Master Williams’s strength. Her neck throbbed, and soon, the pain spread across her body, and it almost crippled her.
His body burned in rage and anger like an out of control beast! His coldness felt as if it was from hell, and his eyes were so red that it was as if they were enough to kill the animals in the entire forest. His violent urge to kill consumed her.
Elena could not breathe, the air between her chest dwindled, and she gradually slipped out of consciousness. She did not want to die, but she could not even call for help. He tried to kill her…
Her eyes slowly dimmed, and her small palm-size face had a tinge of blue on it. Her hands shook, and her entire body twitched. She could not even breathe.
Michael glared at her with the wrath of destruction. Why did she kill his child? Why would she betray him? Why was she so cruel? That evil woman! She could hurt him and even kill him with her own hands, but why would she harm his child? Their child, his only child…
The girl’s eyes widened, but her gaze began to lose its life. Her pupils were dilated, and the last ounce of air seemed to have disappeared quickly from her body. He had loved her bright eyes, but they had begun to dim. Tears trickled down the corners of her eyes.
Suddenly, Michael threw the girl backward. She slid from the head of the bed like fallen leaves in the autumn. Eventually, she fell onto the ground with a thud; she was completely motionless. Her chest still moved, a sign that she was still alive. Her eyes slowly brightened as air entered her lungs again. She thought she had died; she did not expect that she was still alive.
The man stared at her. He watched her slide down from the bed and onto the ground, but he did not help her. Elena was so weak that she did not even have the strength to lift her fingers. She could only blink her eyes and kept her eyes on the man.
Suddenly, Michael laughed, but it sounded lifeless.
“You have killed my child. Do you think you’ll get to live happily with him now?”
He crouched to meet her eyes. He gripped her chin tightly.
“That’s a wonderful thought. Did you think I’d agree to it?”
Elena was speechless; her throat burned with pain. It was a miracle that she survived his attack. How could she possibly muster the energy to speak at that time?
“Do not think that I will let you both off so easily.”
The Eldest Young Master Williams before her was a little less calm than usual. Instead, he was as gloomy as the Grim Reaper himself! He let go of Elena’s chin as if he had discarded a piece of dirty trash. He stood up and looked at her again; his eyes blazed with great fury and a desire to destroy.
“After I clean up the mess with Paradise Island, I’ll deal with you two then!”
