In the middle of the night, Nancy's lower abdomen was filled with waves of pain, causing her fingers to tremble.
When she wanted to call 119, a series of numbers came in.
She accidentally pressed the answer button, and a painful groan escaped. Then she lost consciousness.
When she woke up again, what she saw was a white ceiling, and a strong smell of disinfectant reached her nose.
She caught a glimpse of the hanging water bottle and felt that she must have been brought here by 119.
Just her child?
The door of the ward was pushed open, and a young nurse came in to change her medication. "Are you awake?"
Nancy lightly hummed, "My child?"
"Fortunately, the child was taken to the hospital in time and was saved," the young nurse changed the medicine bottles.
Nancy's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally fell to the ground. "I will go and pay the medical expenses as soon as I finish the drip."
"Your husband
Nancy returned home and sat on the sofa. She looked around and couldn't help but feel a sourness in her eyes. This place was filled with memories of her and Dalton.Although their time together was short, it was still very sweet.She used to think that their beginning was imperfect, so her feelings for him were not pure. It was not until he misunderstood her and spoke harshly to her that she felt extremely painful, and realized that he had already taken root in her heart and sprouted.She took out the divorce certificate and tears fell on it, pitter-pattering.After a while, she got up and went back to the bedroom, putting the documents in the drawer of the dressing table.Glancing at the date, tomorrow is Zoey's wedding. Although Zoey was introduced to Dalton, she cannot stop contacting Zoey just because their marital relationship has ended.She was about to call Zoey when the phone on the other end rang."Nancy, I just heard Dalton
In the dressing room, Zoey took off the intricate accessories from her head and glanced back at Russell, who was tidying up his suit."Nancy was so pitiful, how could Dalton ignore her like that?"Russell hesitated for a moment and said, "I went to talk to Dalton, misunderstandings can be easily resolved."Zoey frowned, "But Nancy didn't want us to get involved in this matter, is she planning to leave?"Russell pursed his lips and walked behind her, placing a hand on her shoulder. "We'll see how things go. If they love each other, being together will bring happiness. But if they don't, being together will only be a torment. Let's just let things take their course."Zoey scolded him, "What if I wanted to leave?""Then I would pester relentlessly.""You kept pestering, yet you let Dalton go with the flow?" Zoey was puzzled.Russell sighed lightly and reached up to touch her earrings. "I let us go with the flow. As for Dalton, he
May 20th was a joyful day for Russell and Zoey.The wedding was five years late, and although there were regrets, it was ultimately successful.The Keller's manor and the Maddox's manor were forty minutes apart, a duration that Russell found particularly long. He was eager to meet Zoey and couldn't wait for those forty minutes to pass.Layne, who was supposed to be by Zoey's side, was taken away by Russell.Russell said to Layne, "Because you were a boy, you had to be with dad."Layne shook his head in disbelief, "You just use me as a scapegoat, you were worried that they wouldn't let you in."Russell pressed his brow, now seemingly nothing could deceive him.However, Layne still comforted him, saying, "After all, you are my father, and I want to make sure you marry my mother!"Alright, this son still sided with him.Layne changed into a black suit, with a small bow tie neatly tied around the collar of his white shirt, l
A number of luxury cars were parked in front of the villa. Russell got out of the leading Phantom, and then he also carried Layne down.A big one and a small one stood there, looking up in the direction of Zoey's room."Mom, come quickly! Layne is watching me!" Evelin jumped up happily, with two little pigtails on her head tied with colorful bells, making cheerful and crisp sounds as she bounced.Leanna, Madeleine, Carolyn, and Nancy stepped forward, looking at the lively scene on the lawn below.In Woodmerrow in May, the weather was already warm, and the green grass was sprouting. The luxury cars and handsome men were truly pleasing to the eye.Leanna cut in, "Russell, the cunning old fox, brought Layne along, wanting to smoothly pass through the level."Madeleine looked shrewd, "That's impossible, how could Royce, Brodie, and Carsen just easily and happily take Zoey away from us?"Carolyn was not one to shy away from drama. "Even if
Carolyn looked at Russell with anticipation, she swore that this time she would never call him "uncle" again!Russell cleared his throat and said, "Sister-in-law!"Carolyn nodded heavily, "Okay, Russell!"She covered her mouth with her hand, she was extremely excited.She finally got it right once, it was really not easy.At the previous wedding, she called the wrong name and felt upset for a long time.This time, we could finally hold our heads high and breathe a sigh of relief!Russell asked, "Can you please ask Carsen to be lenient and let me pass smoothly?"Carolyn looked at Carsen and then blinked her eyes. "Since you didn't make things difficult for Carsen when he proposed, he naturally won't make things difficult for you."Carsen: "..."He made Carolyn come as if it was a mistake.He looked at Royce and Brodie with a helpless expression, "My wife has already spoken, you guys come."At that mom
Zoey knelt on the bed, looking beautiful with her eyes and eyebrows.The wedding dress complemented her porcelain white skin, making her even more delicate and alluring.The wedding dress was embroidered with intricate and complex patterns of gold and silver threads, with the golden phoenix appearing as if it was breaking through the clouds and soaring high, exuding a vibrant and luxurious aura.The hair crown on her head was somewhat heavy, all made of pure gold, with red gemstones embedded on it.Zoey held up the hem of her skirt with both hands and stretched out her feet, saying, "It's time to find me some shoes.""Are you in a hurry to marry me?"Zoey glanced up at the crown on her head and said, "It really felt a bit heavy."Russell got up and placed both hands on the bed, "Where were the shoes placed?""Just put it in..."Zoey was about to speak when Madeleine walked over and said, "The proper procedures still need
Nancy tightened her lips as she heard one after another derogatory remark.Her body trembled slightly, and her fingers curled up.Dalton clicked his tongue and said, "What, did I make you angry? It seems like you really care about this bastard!"Nancy couldn't bear it anymore. She was about to leave, but the man grabbed her wrist."Let go!" Nancy glared at him, unable to speak loudly and could only scold him in a low voice.Dalton sneered, "I just wouldn't let go, what can you do to me?"Nancy swung, not letting go, and raised her other hand to slap the man's face.Because the cheers were too loud, only the people next to it saw it.Alissa frowned as she watched Dalton clutching Nancy's hand. "Dalton, you really have no manners. Not only did you not have a wedding when you got married, but now you're also entangling with your ex-wife after the divorce."She grasped Dalton's wrist and said, "Dalton, we may not be able to
Russell and Zoey faced each other, lifting the veil, revealing a breathtakingly beautiful face.He took Zoey's hands.The pupils of the two individuals reflected each other's faces.From past lives to present life and even to future lives, throughout countless generations, they will always be together!The emcee said, "The couple bows three times to each other. With the first bow, the couple holds hands and respects each other like guests, walking together in love and harmony!"Russell and Zoey bowed to each other."Two bows, heads touching, may you have a precious child until old age!"Russell and Zoey listened to the emcee's command. Russell lowered his head and pressed his forehead against Zoey's smooth forehead, and the two of them smiled at each other."Three bows, faces pressed together, happiness and joy forever!"Russell tilted his head and pressed his cheek against Zoey's, whispering softly in her ear, "Zoey, I
The Jenkins family invited the big shots from the upper class circle to their full moon banquet, and most of them came to the party with the intention of just watching the excitement.After all, who doesn't love to eat the melon of a wealthy family?The Blevins family, who were once expelled from overseas by Dalton, have also become honored guests and have risen in status, all because the wife who couldn't conceive was abandoned and the mistress, with the birth of a child, managed to turn her life around.People who used to sneer at them in the past, now when they see them, they can't help but nod and flatter them.The banquet hall was lavishly decorated, with photos and videos of the little baby playing on the LED big screen. Dalton was greeting the guests with Amiya, going around.Everyone treated her politely and called her Mrs. Jenkins.Only the Jenkins family and the Blevins family knew that Dalton and Nancy had not yet obtained a divorce certificate.Dalton's excuse was that Nan
Nancy held Nacy in her arms, watching all of this coldly. Chelsea, who had once treated her like a daughter, became hysterical in that moment.The people around kept pointing and whispering."This woman actually targeted a pregnant woman. She is truly wicked!"Anyway, the child was innocent!"You saw how she hurt the pregnant woman, and she didn't feel any guilt at all. This kind of person should be cyberbullied!""That's right! Send photos, send videos to her and upload them online!"***Nacy tightly held onto Nancy's neck, fear evident in her eyes. "Mom, I'm scared.""Don't be afraid, I would protect you."Chelsea looked as Amiya's skirt became stained with blood, and she felt a sense of unease. She directed her anger towards Nancy and said, "Nancy, you wanted to exterminate the Jenkins family, didn't you? You and this bastard have truly destroyed the Jenkins family!"Bastard?As soon as this word came out, the onlookers all imagined a grand drama of a wealthy family."Could it be t
Nancy looked at Dalton and asked, "Did your mother have any thoughts of divorcing me now?"Dalton didn't want any rift between the two of them, so he spoke honestly, "There's something, I guess Amiya did some brainwashing on her. But it doesn't matter what anyone thinks, because no one can influence me. The reason why my parents are acting this way is also because Amiya is really good at manipulating people. Nancy, you are in my eyes and in my heart."Nancy sighed lightly, "I know, I won't run away or be cowardly like before. I loved you, and I fought for us, unless one day you didn't want me anymore."Dalton's thin lips curved up, "I was really afraid that you would bring up the child and say that you wanted to leave me, and all that. We don't want to reach that point, you know?"Nancy nodded, "We could give it a try first, and if it doesn't work, we can go for in vitro fertilization."Dalton was glad that she was able to open up, and he embraced her in his arms. "Good. It's coming s
Carolyn, sitting in a wheelchair, twitched at the corner of her mouth, "Can that be done?"Carsen chuckled, "Of course not, I was just kidding with you."Carolyn pouted, "At a time like this, you still feel like joking?"Carsen raised her hand and rubbed her head, "My darling is going to be a mother, just kidding with you."Carolyn looked up and smiled, but in the next second, a wave of pain hit her, and Carolyn's face suddenly changed."Ouch, ouch, ouch! It seems like I was about to give birth!"Carsen hurriedly pushed Carolyn towards the elevator.Russell and Zoey followed behind, but their pace was slightly slower. By the time they arrived, Carsen and Carolyn had already gone up in the elevator.Russell took a deep breath, and Zoey looked at him with amusement. "Are you nervous?""Indeed, a little bit, I can't imagine what it would be like when you gave birth."Zoey held his hand and said, "Don't worry, nothing would happen."After a day of turmoil, Carolyn and Carsen's daughter wa
Eugene glared at Dalton and said, "You idiot! How could you say such a thing?"Dalton sneered, "Isn't this what you were doing? Treading carefully, ultimately pushing me into a corner and forcing me to surrender!"Eugene gritted his teeth and almost spat out the words from between his teeth, "Your attitude towards me is absolutely outrageous!""Sorry!" Dalton stood up, adjusting his cufflinks. "I couldn't do any of the things you mentioned. You can have Amiya live wherever you want, even if it means she moves into the Jenkins's manor, I won't object. With or without her, with or without me!"After saying that, Dalton directly pulled the door and left.Eugene looked at the closed door and lit a cigarette.He believed that everything he was doing now was for the good of Dalton. Being unfilial has no future, so are all the industries of the Jenkins family going to be donated in the future? Of course, there must be his own flesh and blood to inherit them!He felt that Dalton would start w
Nancy and Dalton returned to the room, and Dalton, worried that she was angry, immediately approached and embraced her."Nancy, I beg you, please don't leave me.""That night, I really had no recollection. I had already taken precautions, worrying that something might happen, but unexpectedly, it still did.""I knew that no woman could accept the fact that her husband had an illegitimate child. I had already told my parents that I would give up the Jenkins family's wealth. They can give it to whoever they want, because I will never acknowledge this child.""Nancy, I couldn't be without you. Don't think about giving up on our relationship just because you're having difficulty getting pregnant. My child can only be born from you, I won't acknowledge Amiya's child!""Nancy..."Dalton blurted out all his inner thoughts, how could Nancy possibly remain indifferent.She gently patted the man's back, "Dalton, I didn't say I want to leave you
Nancy noticed the panic in Dalton's eyes, and then her gaze fell on Amiya's small belly."Dalton, she was pregnant with your child, right?"Dalton furrowed his brow as he tried to grasp her hand, but Nancy evaded him."Dalton, was that the time she got pregnant? You didn't do anything about it, did you?""No, Nancy, I handled it. I didn't expect her to get pregnant either," Dalton quickly explained. "Nancy, we are doing a paternity test, and the results will be out soon."Nancy closed her eyes and said, "Dalton, let me have some peace and quiet."At that moment, Amiya walked over, her hand resting on her abdomen.Amiya's pregnancy was already showing after five months, especially when she wore a fitted beige long dress, making her protruding belly even more noticeable.Nancy felt a slight stinging sensation in her eyes, but she couldn't show it in front of Amiya.She asked, "When did the result come out?"Dalton g
After leaving the Jenkins's manor, Dalton did not go home but went to a bar.He drank one cup after another, using alcohol to drown his sorrows.When Russell and Toby arrived, he was leaning against the back of the sofa, looking utterly despondent.They were all dressed in casual clothes, clearly indicating that they had rushed over from home.Russell asked, "What happened? Did Craig come back to life and Nancy doesn't want you anymore?"Toby chuckled, "Your mouth was going to kill me!"Russell clicked his tongue and said, "So, what could possibly have happened to him?"Toby raised an eyebrow, "Well, there was no other possibility."Dalton raised his hand and covered his eyes, "Amiya has returned."Russell squinted his eyes and said, "Could it be that you brought the ball back, which is why you are so down?"Dalton lowered his arm and looked at the two of them. "She was five months pregnant, it should have been th
Amiya knelt and looked up at Dalton, shaking her head, her face covered in tear stains, "No! Dalton, this was your child!"Dalton coldly stated, "This is not my child! My child can only be born by Nancy!"Amiya pleaded with Chelsea, "Chelsea, I heard that Nancy couldn't conceive anymore, can you bear to see the Jenkins family become extinct?"Chelsea furrowed her brows and clenched her fists.Amiya continued, "I was the only bloodline of Dalton. I heard that Dalton adopted the child of his rival, and if this child grows up and learns about their origins, about the death of their parents and their connection to Nancy and Dalton, will she truly treat every member of the Jenkins family with sincerity?"Dalton grabbed her throat and said, "Shut up!"Eugene stepped forward and grabbed his wrist, "Dalton, let go! I didn't want the Jenkins family to end up in a tragedy!"Dalton's hand exerted force, and Eugene's hand also exerted force.
