I couldn’t believe what I was hearing.
What did he just say?

“I’ve done a scan, and the tumor appears to be fine. However, your condition
will worsen if you carry on with the pregnancy.” Chris explained, “The
pregnancy would reduce your lifespan greatly.”
It took me a while to find my voice. “Then, is there any way for me to…”
“Is there any way for you to keep the baby?” Chris responded.
I nodded.
Chris shook his head. “Globally, we’ve only had successful cases of babies
surviving premature birth after twenty weeks of pregnancy. You only have
five months left at most, and that is if you received proper treatment
continuously. You would have to stop all of your treatment if you wished to

proceed with the pregnancy. Yet, that meant you’d have less than five
months left to live.”
I concluded, “I just don’t have that much time, to begin with.”

“Exactly.” Chris continued, “Moreover, you were on your medication this entire
time, right? One of the medication’s side effects is that it causes defects in a
baby’s growth. Also, there’s a high chance that the baby might be born with
hereditary diseases related to cancer.”
I was too stunned to speak after hearing all that.
Though I knew I had no chance of becoming a mother in this lifetime for
some time now… It still hurts a lot when something like this has happened.
“You’re in a relatively early stage of the pregnancy now. I hope you won’t feel
too bad about it.” Chris tried to console me.
I nodded. “I understand.”

Chapter 58 I’ve Committed a Sin
Previously, when I realized that Liam had persistently avoided getting
3/9
intimate with me, I had considered drugging him so that I could have a child
of his.
I wanted to have a child with the man I love.
I wanted a child that bore a close resemblance to the two of us. I wanted
others to be able to tell that we’re a family at a glance.
I had hoped for a child that was as smart as his father and also as
down–to–earth as me.
No, it would be better if the child resembled Liam more. I’m too meek and
gullible. I thought everything would work out if I just tried over and over again.
The child might end up in a sad, pathetic life like me if it resembled me.
As I lay on the operating table, countless thoughts filled my mind.
I should have taken contraceptive measures.

Then, I wouldn’t have had to do something so cruel to this child.

It was the child that I had been hoping for all this time, yet I had to end its life
this way.
I don’t believe in karma or the afterlife, but I do think that I’m committing a sin
right now.
The abortion procedure was completed in a fairly short time. The female
doctor who was in charge of the operation reminded me after the procedure
was over. “You should refrain from having any sexual relations for at least a
month.”
After the doctor left, I tore the medical certificate which indicated my
abortion into pieces. Then, I looked at the medical reports of my pregnancy.
The only thing I have left to remember my child by is this ultrasound photo.
We couldn’t even tell if it was a girl or a boy since it was still in the embryo
stage…

I decided to have the ultrasound photo placed behind my photo on my tomb
when the time came.
After that, I returned to my ward and headed straight to bed. I wanted to
sleep and not think of anything for the time being.
As I was about to doze off, I heard the soft click of the door locking.
The sound woke me up instantly. I climbed out of the bed and hurried over to
the door. Just then, I spotted the door handle turning. A few seconds later,
someone pounded on the door hard.
I heard Chris‘ voice from behind the door. “She’s not here.”
Liam’s voice came the next instant. “Open the door.”
“You won’t find her here even if you turn the place inside out.” Chris went on,
“There’s no way your wife would have come to our hospital in the first place.
We’re located very far away from the city center.”

“Bang!”

There was a loud sound as someone slammed on the door again. Liam said.
in a slow, menacing voice, “Enough with your chattering. I want you to open
the door.”
“I’m sorry. We’re disinfecting the room at the moment,” Chris replied.
There was a short, deafening silence for a while. Then, I heard a huge
commotion outside.
“Mr. Mendez, please calm down. You don’t have to resort to violence…”
“Please calm down! Someone get the director here…”
Is Liam beating Chris up again?
I wanted to go out and stop them, but the door was locked.
After a while, the noises died down, and someone opened the door.

It was Chris.

He handed me a thick padded jacket and said in a rushed voice, “Come with
- me. I’ll take you somewhere safe.”
Chris appeared disheveled, but fortunately, I couldn’t find any new wounds
on his face.
I asked, “What about Liam? Also, where are you taking me?”
“He received a phone call just now. It was probably something urgent since
he left right afterward.” Chris continued, “We should leave while he’s gone. I
can’t let him see you like this. He can’t seem to control his temper. You need
to rest and recuperate. I’ll take you to my place.”
“I can’t go with you. Everyone thinks that I’m…”
“I stay at the hospital dorm most of the time. My neighbors probably don’t
even know me since I don’t show up at my place that often.” He placed the
padded jacket over my shoulders. “I borrowed this from a colleague. It’s a

“We can’t waste another minute here.” Chris frowned slightly. “I’ve asked the
person who’s sent you here. They came all the way from the L.M building.
That’s a two–hour ride. You might have died if you were in a critical condition.
I can’t hand you over to someone like him.”
“Did the person that sent me here tell you their name?” I asked.
“It was a strange woman. She kept asking about your condition, but I told her
that you had probably fainted due to low blood pressure.”
It’s most likely Rina.
I paused briefly before saying, “Thanks for your offer, but I can stay with my
sister.”
“No. I need to keep you on observation for the next three days. You should

stay at my place.”
Chris‘ stern tone made me feel a bit uneasy.

He seemed to have noticed the expression on my face. “I… I’m just not sure if
you should be staying with your sister. I didn’t mean to raise my voice like
that.”
“I know you mean well, but I still prefer to stay with my sister.”
Chris had a dejected look in his eyes.
