Chapter 200: Chapter 111: She Always Has a Way to Drive Him Crazy (3)
She can’t be so cowardly; she has to be strong for the child in her womb.
With this belief constantly in her mind, Rebecca Quentin held her stomach more protectively.
The atmosphere was very tense, Howard Geoffrey glared at her with a livid face.
At this moment, a nurse pushed the door open and entered, saying, "Sorry, I need to change the IV drip..."
Howard Geoffrey’s expression was so cold and severe that it startled the nurse who walked in. Originally wanting to tell Rebecca Quentin to rest more, she swallowed her words due to the strange atmosphere.
After changing the IV drip, the nurse hurriedly left.
After glaring at Rebecca Quentin coldly, Howard Geoffrey didn’t say another word, turned, and strode away.
After Howard Geoffrey left the ward, Rebecca Quentin called the nurse.
Seeing Rebecca Quentin’s tear-streaked face, the nurse compassionately advised, "Miss, since you already have a child, why quarrel with your husband? And I heard from the doctor that your husband is very concerned about the child in your womb. He kept asking the doctor about your check-up results these past few months, asking very detailed questions!"
Heh...
Concerned?
Rebecca Quentin sneered inwardly.
Even if everyone in the world cared for her, he probably wouldn’t.
Asking the doctor about her physical condition was perhaps just to know if she’s suitable for surgery, right?
Didn’t he say it himself? He could take her to an authoritative hospital for surgery without harming her body.
He loathed her so much that he couldn’t even ignore her, insisting on severing ties cleanly!
If it were three months ago, she might have gone to the hospital with him just to win a point, after all, she didn’t want to be tied to him because of the child.
But now, the child is already four and a half months old...
When the doctor did a four-dimensional ultrasound, she could clearly see the little head, little hands, and little feet of the baby... The baby’s nose bridge is high, and the doctor also said the baby isn’t small...
This visible growth is something she can no longer part with...
She cannot be without this child; the child is her only motivation to live on now!
"Nurse, did you see my phone when I came to the hospital?" When alone, afraid of accidents, she always carries her phone with her, usually in a radiation-proof bag.
"I did, I’ll go get it for you."
"Thank you."
In her current isolation, the only one she could turn to for help was her sister.
The nurse handed her the phone, and after she searched for the signal again, she found out that her sister had already called her many times.
Rebecca Quentin dialed the number, and when the call connected, she slowly said, "Sis, can you come pick me up? I’m at the hospital..."
Hearing Christine Quinn’s guilty and anxious voice on the phone, a sour feeling surged in Rebecca Quentin’s heart.
Not long after, Christine Quinn appeared before Rebecca Quentin.
Seeing Rebecca Quentin’s pale face, Christine Quinn glanced around the ward and asked, "Howard Geoffrey isn’t here?"
Rebecca Quentin blankly got out of bed and shook her head.
Christine Quinn supported Rebecca Quentin and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
"No."
Christine Quinn instantly breathed a sigh of relief, "As long as you’re okay, when I heard you were in the hospital, I was almost scared to death... Becca, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to disclose your whereabouts to Howard Geoffrey; he came to my door and even used Marie to threaten me."
"That’s just how he always is, isn’t it?" Willing to stop at nothing to achieve his goal.
"Where did he go?" Christine Quinn asked.
"I don’t know, Sis, I want to go home."
"Okay, let’s go back now."
"Becca, I have to remind you, Howard Geoffrey already knows you’re pregnant, he definitely won’t let this go." Christine Quinn said earnestly while driving, "I think you should talk to him... Raising a child isn’t easy. If it weren’t for Howard Geoffrey back then, I couldn’t have raised Marie to this age. You need to know, having a child may be a matter of time, but once the child is born, the living expenses and education fees are all cumbersome and hefty; I’m really afraid you won’t be able to cope with it in the future!"
Leaving the hospital, Rebecca Quentin originally only wanted to get far away from Howard Geoffrey as soon as possible, but who would’ve thought that Christine Quinn’s words at this moment again disturbed Rebecca Quentin’s already determined mind.
"I can endure hardships, no matter how tough it is, I’m not afraid." Rebecca Quentin could only answer like this.
Christine Quinn sighed, "Perhaps we really are paying for the sins of the previous generation."
