บททั้งหมดของ My Steprother's Secret Obsession: บทที่ 271 - บทที่ 280

When I finally opened my eyes, everything around me was blurry. For a few seconds, I couldn't remember where I was.The bright white ceiling above me. The faint smell of antiseptic. The quiet, rhythmic beeping of a machine somewhere nearby. Slowly, reality began to settle in. I was in the hospital. The moment I tried to move, a wave of pain crashed over me. A soft gasp escaped my lips. My entire body ached. There was a dull, throbbing pain deep inside my lower abdomen, almost like powerful cramps that came and went in slow, relentless waves. Every few moments, another one would tighten across my stomach, reminding me that my body was slowly trying to heal itself. The area between my legs felt sore and swollen. Raw and tender. Even the soft hospital sheets brushing against my skin made me wince.My back hurt, my hips ached, it felt as though every muscle in my body had been stretched beyond its limit. Then I felt another sharp pulse of pain com

I looked down at my son, whose tiny cries were growing louder as he searched blindly against my chest. A fresh wave of tears filled my eyes. For the first time in my life, someone needed me this much.And in that moment, holding my son in my arms, I knew with absolute certainty that no matter what hardships awaited us, I would spend the rest of my life loving and protecting him with everything I had.Almost without thinking, I acted on pure instinct. Carefully, I adjusted the blanket around us and uncovered one breast before gently bringing my baby closer. For a brief second, he searched clumsily, his tiny mouth moving as though he already knew exactly what he was looking for. Then he found it. He latched on eagerly.The moment he did, his little cries faded into silence. I let out a small gasp as a sharp, tender ache shot through me. It was uncomfortable, almost painful, and completely unlike anything I had ever experienced before. But I didn't mind, not even a

"I deserved every bit of it. I hurt you. I failed you when you needed me the most. Everything you felt, every ounce of anger and resentment... it was valid. Please don't apologize for surviving the pain I caused you."His own tears continued to fall. I slowly shook my head."No. I was wrong too. The way I treated you wasn't right. So I owe you this apology." I gave him a small, trembling smile. My fingers intertwined with his then I squeezed his hand gently."But I also want you to know something else. I forgive you. There is no more anger, no more resentment. It all disappeared because of your patience, your kindness and your love. And now I'm ready. I'm ready to move forward, to build a future together. With you and with him that is if you still want that."The words came out softly, but they carried the weight of everything we had gone through. For a long moment, he simply stared at me.It was as though he had forgotten how to breat

Doctors and nurses immediately surrounded her, asking questions and checking her condition. I answered everything I could, my voice shaking as panic threatened to overwhelm me.Her OB-GYN was contacted at once, and within minutes, they wheeled her toward the delivery room. And then she was gone. The doors closed between us, leaving me alone.I stood frozen for several seconds, staring at those doors as though willing them to open again. Then the reality of the situation finally hit me.I began pacing the hallway outside the delivery room, unable to sit still. My chest felt tight, and every breath seemed difficult to take."Please..." I whispered, bowing my head. I wasn't even sure who I was speaking to anymore."Please let them be okay. Please don't take them away from me."I folded my trembling hands together. I had never prayed so desperately in my entire life. Tears slipped down my face, but I barely noticed them. For the first time

"You showed me that your love was real. Not through words, but through your actions. You stayed beside me. You cared for me. You loved our baby even before you met him. And little by little, all the anger I carried inside me disappeared. So now I want to apologize. I want to apologize for the way I treated you these past two months." She stated emotionally as she reached for my hand and squeezed it gently."Oh, baby... You don't have to apologize. I deserved every bit of it." I gently brushed away a tear from her cheek. Her eyes widened."I hurt and  failed you when you needed me most. Every bit of anger you felt was justified. Every bit of resentment was understandable so olease don't apologize for surviving the pain I caused you."I lifted her hand and pressed a kiss against her knuckles. I meant every word because the truth was simple. Between the two of us, I had been the one most at fault. I had refused to listen and I had  judged before understan
