The Day I Learned My Baby Can't Exist Chapter 8
Vanessa's POV "What are you talking about? When you were with me, you never had to endure hardships like this! You won't be able to stick it out until the end!" The moment Christopher saw me, his eyes filled with concern, as though the thought of me enduring even the slightest hardship was unbearable. What he didn't realize was that I'd spent the most meaningful and happiest days of my life here. Back when we were together, he'd always put Serena first, while my needs were little more than an afterthought. Over time, I'd learned to stand on my own two feet and grown into a mature, independent woman. Still, whenever I saw how meticulously he cared for Serena, I couldn't help but feel hurt. I'd argued with him and thrown tantrums, but he always used Alexander as an excuse. "Before Alexander died, he made me promise again and again that I'd take good care of Serena. I'm just honoring that promise. Stop letting your imagination run wild." But as it turned out, there had bee

Vanessa's POVAfter joining the Altara aid program, I put all my personal troubles behind me and became a member of the teaching staff. I'd once given up the opportunity to pursue higher education, choosing instead to stay home and devote myself to being the wife of the research institute's director. Now, I finally had the chance to rediscover the ambitious woman I'd once been. Although the living conditions here were harsh, the locals were warm and welcoming, bringing me more happiness than I'd ever expected. But that newfound peace was shattered when an earthquake struck near the elementary school where I taught."Ms. Foster!" I threw myself over two young children to shield them with my body while directing the others to take cover under their desks. But the school's already dilapidated roof couldn't withstand the shaking and came crashing down on top of me. "Everyone, stay calm! Don't come out!" I had no idea how long it lasted. By the time the tremors finally subside

Third-Person POV"What?" Christopher staggered, his legs nearly giving out beneath him. "Why would she suddenly volunteer for a support mission in Altara? The conditions there are extremely harsh. How is she supposed to survive out there all alone?" Henry finally caught his breath before answering, "Mrs. Monroe contacted them herself. She said she was never coming back." The very next second, Christopher collapsed onto the couch. Knowing Vanessa as well as he did, he could only imagine how utterly hopeless she must have felt to say something like that."No. I don't believe she's given up on me! Get the car ready! I'm going to find her myself!" Henry hurried to stop him. "But the research institute can't function without you! There's a major project that needs your attention right now. You can't just leave!" For a moment, tears glistened in the corners of Christopher's eyes as he stared helplessly at the empty room, unable to utter a single word. He had always assumed
The Day I Learned My Baby Can't Exist Chapter 5
Third-Person POV "Vanessa!" The moment Christopher stepped through the front door, he began searching for Vanessa, calling her name as he looked around the house. Then he noticed that the luggage she'd packed the day before was gone. He called out for her several more times, his voice growing louder until even the neighbors came out to see what was happening. "Mrs. Walker, where's Vanessa? Why isn't she here?" The neighbor let out a heavy sigh. "Her mother had a heart attack, but the hospital was full and couldn't find a bed for her. So she passed away a little while ago. They're probably holding the funeral at the residential compound now. From the way Vanessa looked, I'd say she's taking it pretty hard. You should do your best to comfort her." The moment Christopher heard that, he rushed straight to the residential compound without wasting another second. White flowers covered the area, and the funeral service was coming to an end. Their longtime neighbors stood nea

Vanessa's POV "What? Dr. Monroe has a bed reserved exclusively for his family! She's his mother-in-law. How can you refuse to admit her?" I could no longer hide the shock and disbelief on my face. The nurse hesitated before explaining, "Dr. Monroe just brought his sister-in-law in for admission, so the reserved bed has already been taken." I turned stiffly and saw Serena reclining in the private room, leisurely eating freshly peeled fruit from a plate. Christopher stood anxiously at her bedside, fussing over her and helping her drink water. He looked more like her husband than mine.The seemingly perfect scene was interrupted by my arrival. "Christopher, my mother—" "Why did you follow me here?" Christopher cut me off furiously. "Serena was so upset by what you said that it triggered contractions! If we'd gotten here any later, she might have lost the baby!" At that moment, Serena casually speared a piece of apple with her fork and popped it into her mouth, chewing a

Vanessa's POV When I opened my eyes again, the nurse who had come to treat me gently broke the news that my baby hadn't survived.I pressed a hand against my now-flat stomach, the pain so unbearable that I could barely breathe. I thought to myself, "Christopher, you killed our baby with your own hands." Before I could even wipe away my tears, a neighbor from the residential compound came rushing into the room, panic written all over her face. "Dr. Monroe has taken back the apartment the research institute promised to give your mother! You need to get to her right away. She's having a heart attack!" Her words hit me like a bolt of lightning. Without giving any thought to the pain in my lower abdomen, I stumbled out of bed and rushed toward the residential compound. When I arrived, Christopher was already ordering people to throw my mother's belongings out of the apartment. My mother, Alice Atkinson, was so enraged that she collapsed on the spot. "What are you doing?"
