Love, As Fleeting as the Breeze
"No, no! Lucien, you can't be this heartless! It's your child too!"
She collapsed into frantic sobs, pleading with him desperately.
The child in her belly was her lifeline. She couldn't lose it.
Lucien didn't spare her a glance and turned to leave the room.
Without thinking, Vanessa scrambled to her feet, trying to follow him. But her legs, numb from kneeling, gave way beneath her, and she collapsed to the floor.
Blood seeped out, staining the white tiles red.
Pain shot through her body as she writhed helplessly on the floor, her bloodied hands reaching out, trying to grab onto Lucien.
