Never to Be a Father

After that, Cameron left, leaving me alone with the cold, impersonal machines.A nurse suddenly rushed up to me and exclaimed, "You really are something. You just underwent an induced abortion, and you're already moving around so violently. If I hadn't noticed in time, you would have died!" Was that so? But what did it matter if I died? Who else in this world would care about me?"Where's your husband? Why hasn't he come to care for you? You're in such a weak state now, and you need someone to take care of you," the nurse said.I coldly replied, "He's dead."I would have rather he were already dead. If he were dead and buried, he wouldn't make me feel disgusted.Just then, Cameron suddenly returned and yelled at me, "Justine, I'm still your husband! How could you curse me to death? I shouldn't have come back and cared about you out of kindness!" When the nurse witnessed this, she was even more confused. Wasn't the husband supposed to be dead? How was he alive again?"I know y

Cameron spoke gently into his phone. "Does your belly still hurt? Don't worry. I'll be there soon to keep you company. A miscarriage isn't a small thing. You need to rest well and take care of your body."I'll bring you some chicken soup later. Just wait for me!"I was lying in bed resting when Cameron kicked open the door. He frowned and looked at me, asking, "Are you feeling better?"I could tell that he definitely wasn't asking this out of concern for me."Thanks to you, I almost died in the hospital!" I snapped.Cameron knit his brows together even more tightly. "What do you mean by that? It looks like you've almost recovered. Get up and boil some chicken soup!" he demanded.I chuckled coldly. "For whom? You?"A trace of guilt flashed across Cameron's face as he said, "Why do you care who it's for? Just make it if I tell you to!""Hah! You want me to make some soup for that bitch? Does she deserve it?" I sneered.Although my words were harsh, my heart felt like it was blee

How could a person who could murder their own child be qualified to be a father?After I married him, he told me he would hand over his salary to me to manage. But that was just what he said on the surface—in reality, while I had his bank account number, he kept the password and PIN.He tightly protected all his income, and other than the necessary monthly expenses, I didn't get a single cent.But even so, because I was blinded by love, I never questioned him—I always thought that a couple should trust each other.I was being serious about the divorce, but it seemed Cameron was convinced that I couldn't live without him."Justine, think carefully. Can you live without me after the divorce? After being out of the workforce for so many years, do you really have the courage to go back to work? Just stay home and be my trophy wife. As long as you don't disturb Julie, you'll be my wife forever. Isn't that nice?" he said.No! How could that be nice?Marrying this hypocritical man was

I couldn't describe how I felt at that moment—perhaps it was something akin to having eaten some disgusting shit.Julie wasn't done with her rant. "I couldn't accept it! That was why I dated someone abroad too. But why should I be abandoned by a scumbag and nearly lose my life because of a miscarriage, while you get to live a happy, peaceful life that originally belonged to me?"Hmph! I didn't expect that Cameron would still think about me after I came back. All I had to do was shed a few tears, and he personally tricked you into going to the hospital to kill your child! All just to make me happy!"You know, when you were on the operating table for your abortion, he was sitting right next to me, watching. How unfortunate that he never looked at you from the beginning till the end. When they removed your child, he only had eyes for me!"Justine, you lost! You have to give up your place to me and give me back the life that was supposed to be mine!"After hearing all of this, I only

Following Cameron's explanation, I went with him to the hospital for a checkup. Fortunately, my body was fine.It must have been because, ever since I'd found out about Cameron's infertility, our attempts to have a child had shifted from natural conception to artificial insemination.Cameron's sperm quality had worsened with each attempt, so the doctor used the sperm sample from when he was still healthy to perform the IVF.That meant the baby in my womb had been perfectly healthy too. He could have been safely born into this world.After leaving the hospital, Cameron and I remained speechless.Cameron was indeed pitiful—but every bit of his misery was his own doing.If it weren't for him desperately wanting to take care of his so-called "unattainable love" and clinging to her like an idiot, how could Julie have gotten close enough to infect him with her disease?"This is the end. I'll have the divorce papers sent over when I have time. Let's never see each other again," I said
