The Billionaire's Baby Nanny

The night grew late as the rain poured heavily.Lightning flashed, its white glow occasionally piercing through the cracks of the window. In the darkness, a young woman wept while clutching her fragile infant tightly.Though thunder rumbled and shook the sky, Elizabeth paid no attention. Her mind was consumed by only one thing—her son, lying weak with a burning fever.She had already given him fever medicine, yet his temperature showed no sign of dropping. His breath came in gasps, and his skin had turned pale with a bluish tint.“My baby…?” she whispered hoarsely, choking back tears. Again and again, she pressed her finger beneath his nose, desperately ensuring that the little one was still breathing.Her husband could not be reached. For the past four days, he had not come home, nor had he responded to any of her messages.There were no neighbors she could ask for help, as everyone was away. Besides, her house was far too isolated—surrounded by a dark forest and slippery, muddy path

What the old woman did shocked everyone!Martin immediately tried to stop his mother.“Mama, don’t do this! Have pity on Elizabeth!” he cried.“Pity, you say?!” Mery snapped harshly. “This woman is useless! She’s truly stupid and uneducated. I told you not to marry her, but you insisted. Look at her now—she can’t even take care of one child. My grandchild died because of her!”Mery burst into loud sobs, pulling Elizabeth’s hair even harder.But Elizabeth remained silent, frozen like stone. Her eyes were empty, fixed only on the small body of her lifeless son.“My real daughter-in-law should have been Julia! She is a great woman—smart, intelligent, educated, with a good career. Not like you, a parasite! You can’t even care for a child!” Mery kept raging as she struck Elizabeth.Elizabeth still didn’t react. Even if the woman killed her right there, she was willing to die with a smile, as long as she could be with Alex.“Mother, please! Have some compassion. Can’t you feel sorry for Eli

“Of course, this hospital accepts breast milk donors. If you want to donate, just go to the baby care unit on the fourth floor. But before that, you have to take a health test.”Elizabeth gave a faint smile. “Alright, nurse. Thank you.”After finishing the administrative process, she walked toward the health examination room and then went up to the fourth floor, as directed by the cashier earlier.Elizabeth knew very well where the baby care unit was. Alex, her son, had once been treated there. When he was born, Alex had to stay in the incubator because he swallowed too much amniotic fluid. The tiny baby was born with bluish lips and without a cry.Since then, the nursery had become a familiar place to her. Almost every day she brought breast milk for her child.This hospital… held too many memories.The place where Ibnu was born.And the place where he took his last breath.Elizabeth’s chest tightened. But she quickly took a deep breath, trying to stay strong. At last, she arrived in

For some people, a cemetery is the scariest place of all. But not for Elizabeth. The young woman seemed at ease sitting in front of her child’s grave.Tears streamed endlessly down her face. Her eyes, once large and bright, now looked swollen and sunken.“My dear, Mama wants to find a job, so I won’t feel so restless at home. I want to earn money to buy sacrificial lambs, Alex. It’s a tradition in Islam—slaughtering lambs as a form of gratitude for the birth of a child. I promised to buy two lambs. I’ll also make you a beautiful headstone.” Elizabeth hugged the mound of earth covering her child’s grave, hoping it would ease the ache of her longing.No matter how many people told her to let go, Elizabeth still could not accept her child’s passing.“My dear, Mama has to go home now, it’s getting late. Forgive me for not being able to hold you, Alex. If only I could turn back time, that morning I would have taken you straight to the hospital, so you could have been treated right away.” E

“What? A lethal injection?” Doctor Jhon was stunned when he heard Elizabeth’s request.“I’m afraid of injections, but if it’s a lethal one, I’m not afraid,” Elizabeth said in despair.“I understand how you feel, but you cannot think this way. You have to care about yourself. Pity your child—he would be sad to see his mother crying.” The doctor rose from his chair and stood beside Elizabeth.Quickly, Elizabeth wiped away her tears. She stayed silent as the doctor checked her heartbeat, stomach, and blood pressure.“Low blood pressure, 90/70. And your stomach acid is high,” Doctor Jhon said after finishing the examination.“Is there any hope for me to die, Doc?” Elizabeth asked eagerly.“Again with death!” Jhon glared at her, annoyed.“Those who are already buried cry and beg to live again. And here you are, still alive, busy wanting to die.” His tone was sharp with irritation.“I was just asking, Doc.” Elizabeth grinned sheepishly.“You must not stress. Eat on time, and get enough rest
