Chapter 1303: Chapter 1306: You Want to Abort Our Child? (Extra 4) Chapter 1303: Chapter 1306: You Want to Abort Our Child? (Extra 4) Hearing what Dr. Collins said,
Aidan Lucas, who had been staring at Lily since he entered, finally looked away.
He stood up, facing Dr. Collins.
His dark, ink-black eyes, filled with complex emotions, “The child… hasn’t been lost?”
He dared not ask this question since he came in.
He loved Lily; she was his greatest love in this world, even a child could not replace her status.
Even though this child was one he had always wanted.
But upon receiving the call and hearing the doctor’s notification, his first reaction was to think that the child was already gone.
Pushed down the stairs, a pregnant woman with a child, less than three months along, was now being taken to the ward.
These jumbled pieces of information, coming from the doctor’s mouth, Aidan Lucas had never even considered the possibility that this child could be saved.
Even though this was the baby he longed for, Lily was always the most important.
He was considerate of Lily’s feelings; after getting to the hospital, he never mentioned the child.
He didn’t dare to even ask or mention it, for fear of touching upon Lily’s heartache.
But now—what had he heard?
Dr. Collins said with a smile, “Yes, the child hasn’t been lost. It was just a false alarm earlier; this child has great resilience, not even slightly harmed.”
Thinking that deciding to terminate the pregnancy was the couple’s decision, Dr. Collins slowly began to persuade them.
“If you’re thinking of terminating this child, you might want to think it over, after all, children are precious, and if you just terminate it like that, it really is…”
He stopped talking halfway through.
Because Dr. Collins suddenly realized that the man standing on the other side of the hospital bed, his eyes as cold as frost, slowly began radiating a terrifying hostility.
She had worked in the hospital for many years, seeing life and death.
She had seen much joy, despair, grief, and resentment from patients and their families.
But such a gaze filled with endless hostility was something she had seen for the first time.
Dr. Collins couldn’t help but take a step back, feeling as though something was stuck in her throat; she wanted to continue persuading but had no idea what to say.
At this time, Aidan Lucas suddenly turned around.
His gaze lowered, with profound and icy eyes, he looked at Lily, who was almost in a daze, half-propped on the bed.
“Do you want to terminate our child?”
The moment the words left his mouth, a sensation of his heart being viciously squeezed and pulled from his body nearly suffocated Aidan Lucas.
When the confrontation rang out, Lily couldn’t contain her tears.
She wasn’t scared; she wasn’t fearful.
It was just that Aidan’s instant pallor and the deep hatred emanating from his eyes caused her an indescribable pain.
Without warning, tears brimmed over, falling like rain.
Lily bit her lower lip tightly, her whole body trembling with it.
She wanted to explain, but the sudden surge of emotion nearly made it impossible for her to control herself.
How could she explain?
Aidan Lucas was right to question her; she was the executioner; she had originally intended to terminate their child.
Tears fell heavily; her lip, bitten tightly by her teeth, also slightly quivered.
At this moment, Lily fell into a silence filled with self-reproach and loathing.
Without receiving a response from Lily, he interpreted it as agreement.
“Heh.” Aidan Lucas bowed his head, lowering his eyelids.
A look of hopelessness flickered through his unfathomable eyes.
“So, you really want to terminate our child.”
This time, it wasn’t a question.
But a soft murmur, as if denying himself.
In that moment, all hope had faded.
The last bit of light in the world seemed about to go out.
…
Dr. Collins knew something terrible had occurred; she regretted deeply but was helpless to do anything.
Just as she was about to attempt to say a few words to ease the atmosphere, she saw the man who had been looking down motionlessly suddenly raise his eyes.
“This doctor, please leave. I have words I’d like to say to my wife.”
