Chapter 4%
A bowl of chicken soup appeared in my blurred vision and I looked up to find that it was Marlon who had returned exhausted.}
His rough thumb wiped away the tears from the corners of my eyes.
His voice was a little tired, “You are still the same as before, crying when you are pregnant.“}
My memory was a little hazy and I suddenly remembered that pregnancy.
At that time, I was vomiting so much that I could not eat anything, so Marlon learned how to make chicken soup for me to replenish my nutrition.§
But the more I supplemented myself, the weaker I became.
I clearly could not eat it, but I could not bear to waste his kindness.}
I clearly remembered that when I drank chicken soup for the last time before my miscarriage, Marlon seemed to be hesitant to speak.
I asked him what was wrong, but he hugged me and sobbed, “It’s my fault. I made you suffer. I don’t want the child anymore. It’s just you and me in this life.”
I laughed at him and said he was a fool who loved me.
But I was obviously the stupid one.
How could his pathetic self–esteem allow me to give birth to a child smoothly?}
I did not realize that the look of pity in his eyes was more of guilt and a guilty conscience.
It was the repeated repentance for killing his own child with his own hands.}
I looked coldly at the man I had loved for twenty years and felt that I had never really understood him.”
I could not help sneering in my heart, ‘Marlon, why didn’t you discuss this with me?!
‘My parents just wanted the first child to take my surname and I would give birth to a second and third child for you.
‘After helping your family change their fate and rise to higher social status, am I not even worthy of having the right to give my child my surname?‘
I raised my hand and overturned the chicken soup in his hand. I was shaking with hatred.”
‘Marlon, I’ll be waiting for you to go crazy in a week,‘ I cursed him in my heart.”
Marlon frowned as he asked, “What are you doing?”
A thin woman rushed in from the ward door, frantically picking up the thermos on the ground.
“Marlon, don’t be angry. Maybe the chicken soup I cooked is not to Margret’s liking.”
I was completely stunned.
It turned out that it was not Marlon who came to see me, but he brought his lover to show his affection.
Melanie was very beautiful.“}
Perhaps because she was taking care of her sick son, she looked a little haggard, but this made her seem even more pitiful.
I touched my face unconsciously.
Youth was fleeting.
I could not make that seductive look anymore.
But Marlon did not notice my disappointment at all.
His attention was all on Melanie. Seeing Melanie was scalded by the thermos, he rushed examined it carefully.
over impatiently, took the beauty’s hand and
Melanie broke free embarrassedly and glanced in my direction, which made Marlon feel distressed. Her voice was soft as she said, “Marlon, I’m fine. Margret’s health is more important now.”
As she spoke, she waved towards the door.
A bald little boy walked in.
“Isaias, come quickly and say hello to your aunt.”
The little boy looked very grim and Melanie led him to my bed.”
Suddenly he put his hand on my belly.
“Isaias, come and feel it. Your aunt is pregnant with a little brother. He can save your life. Wait a few more months and we won’t feel the pain anymore.”
Her words were like poisoned needles piercing my heart. She was trying to kill
my
child!
