âJasper, I want to see Mick. Can you help me find him?â Nancy choked out.
âNow?â
âYes, now!â Nancy nodded vigorously. She had too much to say to him and wanted to see him as soon as possible!
If it werenât for her current physical condition, she would have rushed out of the ward to find him.
âOkay, Iâll contact my brother for you!â Jasper said, taking out his phone and dialing Mickâs number.
But no one answered the phone on the other end!
Jasper thought for a moment and said, âSince my brother isnât answering the phone, Iâll just go find him.
No matter what, Iâll bring him to see you as soon as possible!â
Jasper said as he was about to leave the ward.
Nancy stopped and said, âIfâ¦if he doesnât want to come see me, tell him I want to marry him!â
Jasper was caught off guard. He didnât expect to hear such a bold statement.
âOkay, I got it!â Nancy said. If her older brother heard thisâ¦well, he would probably rush to the hospital right away.
After Jasper left, Nancy lowered her head and whispered to her baby in her belly, âBaby, Iâm sorry.
Mommy loves you very much, but Mommy also loves your daddy. No matter what, I hope you both can be well!â
Perhaps she was too greedy, wanting everything.
She thought she could risk her life for her child.
But now she realized that Mick was also risking his life for their child!
How should she make a choice between them?
Was there really no way to have both in this world?!
At this moment, she knew she had to make a decision!
Nancy didnât have to wait long in the hospital room. Mick appeared in her room after only an hour!
âWhy did you have Jasper say that?â Mickâs voice broke the silence in the room.
âIâ¦have a lot to say to you,â Nancy took a deep breath and said.
âI thought we had said everything we needed to say,â Mick said. âYou want to keep the baby until 35 weeks, okay, I wonât say anything else, and I wonât stop you.â
His voice was calm, as if he was talking about something ordinary, without the excitement he used to have.
Even his eyes were dull and lifeless.
The lifelessness made Nancy feel as if the man in front of her had given up on her completely!
Or⦠has he already prepared for the worst?
So youâre not going to try to persuade her anymore?
Thinking of the words he had said to Jasper before, Nancy felt a sudden pain in her chest, and the pain seemed to be getting stronger and stronger!
âI didnât make myself clear. Youâre not unimportant to me. Youâre the father of my child, and⦠the man I love!â Nancy spoke, looking at Mick with sincerity. âBut⦠I donât know if Iâm saying this too late. Do you still believe me?â
She used to only think about the child and believed that if something happened to her, he would only be sad for a while and nothing more.
This kind of thinking had been with her throughout her pregnancy.
She had taken his love for granted.
She had thought that he didnât love her that much.
