Loving him was very difficult, but she had still done it. So why should she die? "I won't die. If I die, another woman will sleep in my bed, have children with you, and hit my children. What kind of a fool would I be if I were to die? I wouldn't be happy even if I were a ghost."Hunter flung Emlyn's hand away and said, "Go away!"Hunter had only been in the hospital for ten minutes when Emlyn hurried over.She was still wearing what she had worn at home and the apron was still tied around her waist. She had not even changed out of her slippers and she looked very out of place in the hospital.She stood beside Eve's bed and looked at Hunter. She said, "Come home with me. She would never die like this."Hunter pointed at the woman lying on the bed with closed eyes and said softly, "Emlyn! She is your younger sister!""You are my husband! She has parents who can take care of her! What are you doing here?!"Emlyn could not control her temper and she clenched her fists!Hunter laugh
"Slap!" Boris struck Emlyn across the face forcefully.Emlyn lost her balance and hit the wall. There was a ringing sound in her ear and she heard Boris yelling, "Your younger sister is about to die and you're still making trouble here! How evil can you be! If you're not here to visit, then scram!"Ruby also charged at Emlyn and started to push and kick her. "You've never liked her since you two were children and now you want her to die! Is that right? How can you be so vicious! To think that I have always treated you as my own!"Boris grabbed Emlyn's wrist and dragged her out of the room, "Get out! I don't have a daughter like you!"Emlyn tried to peel Boris' hands off her while Ruby went forward to help drag her out as well.Emlyn turned to look at Hunter, who approached them quickly, and said, "Hunter! I already told you! I didn't set you up! The person who set you up is the woman you love!"Hunter looked at the blood trickling from the corners of Emlyn's mouth and dragged her
Hunter could not listen any longer. Every word that Emlyn uttered was like a fine needle piercing his chest. They struck deep into his chest, bit by bit, deeper and deeper. The pain he felt grew even stronger and he could not get away from it."Don't say anything anymore, don't say anything anymore..." Hunter ran forward holding Emlyn in his arms. He saw some nurses running toward him with a gurney."I agree to a divorce... I agree..." Emlyn's voice grew softer and her hand slowly released its grip on Hunter's shirt and fell weakly.Hunter panicked and yelled, "Emlyn!" He was about to yell for the doctor when he saw the hospital's chief physician. It was Sean Morris, his high school and college classmate.When had he and Sean become strangers?It had probably started when Sean pursued Emlyn. Sean had hacked into the school's website and posted that he would not marry anyone but Emlyn. Hunter had thought that Sean was nuts and found him to be a nuisance. After that, they had stoppe
Hunter sat on a green plastic chair in the corridor, hunched over with his elbows propped up on his legs. He scrubbed his face with his palms and exhaled loudly.Ruby ran towards him on her high heels, making clacking sounds. She grabbed Hunter and started crying, saying, "Hunter, go and take a look at Eve. The doctor said that she's not doing too well!"Hunter did not look up but said lazily, "Go and look for a doctor."Ruby was shocked. She glanced at the signboard saying 'Emergency Room' and gritted her teeth as she said, "Hunter, Eve had taken a turn for the better but the doctor said that she has been aggravated and has now fallen unconscious again! It's all Emlyn's fault! Hurry up and get a divorce!"Ruby knew that Hunter was grateful to Eve for saving his life and knew that Hunter was in love with Eve. That was why she was pushing all the blame on Emlyn.Hunter was very frustrated. He exhaled deeply and sat up straight, tossing his head back and leaning against the wall. He
Hunter did not have faith in the top-class private hospital. He called his secretary and ordered him to prepare a helicopter. He was going to send Emlyn to a different hospital. They could even head to a hospital abroad immediately.However, the staff at the hospital warned him that she might die if they were to move her.Hunter admitted that he had been scared by the warnings of the doctors, chief physicians, and directors. He could let Emlyn stay in the hospital, but he had to go in and take a look at her. He had to see how the woman whom he had been married to for two years was doing!In the end, Hunter made use of his unshakable position in society as well as some connections to make the hospital let him through the emergency room doors.He disinfected himself, changed into scrubs, put on a surgical cap, a mask, and cleaned his hands and under his nails with soap before entering the room.He looked at Emlyn, whose nose and mouth was attached to tubes. She lay on the operating
The director said, "There is a problem with her chromosomes and she was lucky just to be able to get pregnant. The fetus did not detach completely from her uterus when she miscarried. We had to clean out her uterus using surgical tools. It was an emergency then and the patient was hemorrhaging and we had to save her life. However, the tools caused damage to her uterus..."Hunter could not accept the fact that he would not have any children in the future. No man born into a wealthy family would be able to accept this fact!He lost control of his emotions when he stood up. His eyes glinted fiercely as he said, "You all caused this medical mishap!"The director swallowed. He was very frightened but he could only steel himself and continue, "Mr. Shield, when you signed the waiver, you were informed of and agreed to all the surgery risks. We could only use surgical instruments to remove the part of the fetus that was attached to the uterus. There is not a single hospital in the world tha
Emlyn was shaded from the glare of the midday sun by the curtains as restlessness prevented sleep from reaching her and she tossed and turned in her bed.The door of the ward slammed open to announce Eve's entrance, and Emlyn sat up.Eve had been discharged from the hospital earlier. Perched atop a pair of high heels and wearing a dress, she crossed her arms haughtily as she scrutinized Emlyn and sniggered, "How are you feeling after your miscarriage?"Emlyn was mindful of Sean's advice as she held onto her temper and disregarded Eve's provocation.Eve was holding a small glass bottle filled with a strange liquid in her hand. A small, flesh-colored ball was suspended in the liquid. She shook the bottle flippantly. "Do you know what this is?"Emlyn furrowed her brows. "What?""Well, it's the child you lost."The color drained from Emlyn's face as her resolve gradually slipped. "You! What are you talking about?""Do you want to know how I got it?" Eve continued to jiggle the cont
"Emlyn! What are you doing!" Sean Morris shoved open the door and bolted towards Emlyn to pull her into his arms. "What are you doing! Why did you not listen to me?"Emlyn grabbed onto Sean's white coat as her body was racked with an onslaught of sobs and she screeched piteously. "Sean! I tried to tolerate it! But she won't let me go! I beg you, seize the bottle in her hands! I beg you!"Sean shifted his attention to Eve just as Emlyn let out a gut-wrenching howl. "My child's inside!"Eve flinched as she perceived the malicious glint in his eyes. She was about to leave with the bottle in her hand when he sent her sprawling to the ground in a disheveled heap!He plucked the bottle from her grip and placed it in Emlyn's hand before spitting at Eve, "Get lost!"Eve crawled towards the door resentfully. "I'm going to file a complaint against you to the hospital!"Sean retorted disdainfully, "This hospital is operated by the Morris family! Sue us if you're that capable!"After Eve ha
