Chapter 237 The child must be gone, otherwise her lower abdomen wouldnât ache like this.
In that tiny space, it felt as if sharp knives were scraping back and forth, twisting her until she wished she could pass out again.
And with the slightest movement, the warm liquid would flow between her legs.
Though inexperienced, she still knew the basics of miscarriage The excruciating pain accompanied by lochia, what else could it be if not a miscarriage!
The child that had just been conceived in her womb died at the hands of its father in the most direct and brutal method.
Tears blurred her vision as she instinctively denched the fabric at her abdomen, allowing the piercing pain to spread to every limb This was her retribution for abandoning her own child, and only through such heartâwrenching pain could she feel a bit better.
The man on the sofa slowly stood up, walking toward the bed with steady steps.
The liquid in his glass gently swayed with his movements, creating faint red ripples, accentuating the wicked smile on his lips, sinister and cruel.
He reached out and grabbed her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze, his cold breath overwhelming, imprisoning her. âI did it myself. Do you think it still had a chance of survival? Huh?â
With that, his large hand slowly moved down, tracing her delicate collarbone, finally resting on her lower abdomen.
Luna couldnât help but shiver, her eyes full of fear She was afraid of this coldâblooded man No wonder everyone trembled at the sound of his name.
His cruelty instilled fear to the core.
Only now did she realize that the boy who had doted on her eight years ago was completely dead.
What appeared before her was the ironâfisted, ruthless, and cunning leader of the Baker family âItâs good that itâs gone. It was never meant to exist,â she said.
Westâs eyes narrowed, and the pressure on her lower abdomen suddenly increased.
A sharp, shattering pain struck, and Lunaâs body convulsed violently. She pleaded. âIt hurts. Please donât torture me.â
West admired the fear in her eyes, a sinister smile curling his lips.
âDoes she know fear now! Good, this way she wouldnât dare to defy me again, let alone decide the fate of the child on her own he wondered.
Just this once. If you dare to act on your own again. Iâll break your legs.â
With that, he slowly withdrew his hand, patting her face twice before saying, âDonât think about escaping, or youâll bear the consequences.â
Luna turned her head slightly, unable to bear the pain in her abdomen.
From learning about her pregnancy to the miscarriage, it had only been three days, but it felt like she had lived a long life.
With the passing of her child, she thought she would never have happiness in her life again Just like Sophia, the fetus she aborted two years ago had become an unhealable wound in her heart.
After Westâs gaze lingered on her pale face for a moment, it slowly moved to her flat abdomen, and his eyes gradually deepened.
That palmâsized place would give birth to the heir of the Baker family.
After Sophia left The View, she called the Baker familyâs bodyguard to have the female doctor taken to a cafe across from the warehouse She knew Jason had someone following her, and if she went directly to the warehouse, it would arouse his suspicion.
11:30 AM Ï.
Chapter 237 She didnât want to reveal the truth about her daughterâs death yet. After all, with Ada having the Watson Group as a backing, even if Sophia were to accuse her, she wouldnât be able to do anything to her.
In the cafe, Sophia met the bodyguard at the door of the private room.
Thank you for your hard work. Hereâs 400 thousand dollars for youâ As she spoke, she took out a bank card from her bag and handed it to him.
Seeing it, the bodyguard, dressed in black, quickly stepped aside, keeping his distance. âMiss Taylor, no need. If we take your money today, Ms. Luna will be angry with me. Please donât put me in a difficult position.â
