The Love from The Past that Ruined Our future

I realized that this child was mine alone. I promised I would take him with me. Then I would raise him well. My child would be the most important and the only family I had.

I also didn't expect that the man who comforted me countless times in the middle of the night, just watched me blame myself for not being able to give him a child. He also said that it didn't matter if there was no child. But he would actually be the cause of all this.

My heart seemed to be clenched by someone. I opened my mouth to gasp for air.

“It's a pity that even if you were pregnant, Richard Athelstan still chose me. Guess, who will Orlando choose this time?”

A bad premonition rose in my heart before I could react.

She had already pulled me towards the stairs and rolled down.

Behind me, Orlando's anxious voice exploded, “Save me.”

In a panic, I desperately grabbed the handle. I watched as Orlando chose to pull Eleanor into his arms with one hand between me and Eleanor Celeste.

I didn't care about my fall injury. The severe sharp pain coming from my belly made me suck in cold air.

I saw Orlando standing on the stairs. He only nervously checked Eleanor's injuries. Then he looked at me angrily with a disgusted gaze that I had never seen before.

“Celine Reverie, I have always been heartbroken that you lost your child and have taken good care of you. But I never thought that you would actually be so vicious like this. Just because you lost your own child, so you want to kill Eleanor Celeste's child too?”

I wanted to defend myself. Unfortunately, the pain made me unable to say a word. He carried Eleanor in his arms and left in large strides.

My eyes went black for a while. Before I lost consciousness, all I saw was his determined back.

When I woke up again, the doctor's regretful voice sounded in my ears, “The baby is healthy, what a pity.”

I let out a bitter smile at this moment. I didn't get to keep anything in the end. After opening the cell phone, Orlando's messages appeared on the notification screen. All of them were just very strong accusations.

Orlando: [Celine, do you know that Eleanor was in shock? She is now scared and crying all the time.]

Orlando: [You're so vicious, Celine.  You can't see anyone else's good!]

Orlando: [Even if it's just a child in the womb, it's still a living being, Celine. How could you do it?]

Orlando: [If you don't kneel down and apologize to Eleanor this time, don't even think about me forgiving you, Celine.]

I just looked at these text messages numbly. After catching up with the teaching team, I simply pulled out the phone card. It wasn't until the hospital couldn't find me in the evening that they called Orlando.

“Excuse me, may I ask if you are the family member of Celine Reverie who is in labour? Now we can't find anyone. We would like to ask if the embryos are handled by yourselves or if we will help you handle them?”
