    Luke suddenly approached the nurse, startling her.


    Her face turned pale when she saw him, and she stammered, "M-Mr. Bolton."

    I watched Luke''s urgent expression and thought to myself. If that nurse wasn''t a woman, he probably would''ve grabbed on to her


    His face was filled with anxiety as he said. "Please, repeat what you just said. What happened to my wife and the baby?"N?velDrama.Org (C) content.


    The nurses exchanged nces. Both puzzled when they realized Luke was oblivious to my situation.


    "Mrs. Bolton was having a miscarriage, one of the nurses exined. "The surgery was performed here."


    The other nurse was bolder and asked cautiously, "Hmm, Mr. Bolton, didn''t you know that your wife was pregnant?


    That question struck him like a heavy thunderstrike. Luke''s expression went nk, as if a powerful blow had just struck him.


    "She was pregnant?" he whispered.


    The nurse awkwardly looked away, unsure of how to respond.


    After all, who in the world doesn''t know their own wife is pregnant?


    "Yes, the nurse continued, "I remember Mrs. Bolton was brought in with low progesterone, which put her at risk of miscarriage. She had just been emotionally distressed, which made it even harder to carry the baby. She clutched the attending physician''s hand, crying desperately, saying that no matter what it took, she wanted to keep the baby"


    Luke closed his eyes shut, forcing out a few words. "Who was her attending physician?"


    "Dr. Miller."


    I stood quictly in the hallway, watching Luke stumble toward the doctor''s office. The truth was finally going toe out.


    Luke, what expression will you have when you find out that it was your actions that killed our baby?


    Can you even begin to feel the pain that I''ve been carrying?


    I slowly followed him. By the time I arrived, I saw the shock on Luke''s face. "It''s you, Neal.


    Seated across from him was a tall, thin man with wire-rimmed sses resting on his nose.


    Thi man had once been a ssmate of mine in high school. He had pursued me back then andter went on to medical school.


    When I was hospitalized due to my frail health, Neal Miller took special care of me since we went way back..

    Now, as Luke approached, Neal seemed unfazed, as if he had expected this moment. In contrast to Luke s stunned look. Neal''s demeanor was much cooler. "Mr. Bolton, please have a seat," Neal said, motioning toward the chair.


    He looked at his assistant and said. "You may leave now


    "Alright, Dr. Miller


    Luke wasn''t in the mood for small talk. He immediately asked, "I want to know what happened to Chloe and the baby."


    Neal nced at him indifferently, and I caught the trace of mockery in his eyes.


    "Mr. Bolton, so you actually care about her and the child? I thought the only person in your life was Anna. someone with no blood rtion to you."


    His words wereced with sarcasm and hostility, but Luke was too distraught to engage in any banter.


    "Stop with the jabs. Just tell me the answer!"


    "Alright, I''ll tell you," Neal began. "Chloe was sent to the ER, diagnosed as pregnant with a high risk of miscarriage. She was transferred to my care. At the time, she had already started bleeding. I told her the chances of her keeping the baby were slim, but she insisted that I do everything I could to save it.


    "She suffered greatly to save the baby. Her early pregnancy symptoms were severe, to the point where she would even throw up from drinking water. Despite that she insisted on staying in the hospital to keep the baby safe."


    Neal bored his gaze on Luke and asked, "What I''m curious about is how, as her fiancé, you managed to visit the hospital every day and never once check on her."


    "I...." Luke didn''t know how to exin himself, his face filled with unease.


    "I also heard Chloe was pushed to the ground before she was brought to the hospital. Who would be so heartless as to harm a pregnant woman?"


    Luke''s face darkened further. I could see that he was piecing it all together.


    That day in the café, I confronted Anna and informed him that I had surveince footage proving Anna had orchestrated everything.


    He hadn''t believed me but pushed me to the ground, which led to my hospitalization.


    To him, I was just a maniptive liar. How could he believe that a simple push could send me to the hospital?


    Luke''s face finally contorted with guilt. He lowered his head, looking at his hands, muttering. "I didn''t know. I swear, I didn''t know she was pregnant. I was just... so anxious... I


    "I knew it; it was you, Neal sneered.


    "Mr. Bolton, do you remember what you said when you let Chloe go all those years ago? You promised you would take care of her for life. It''s been just a few years and you''ve already pushed your pregnant fiancée

    down for the sake of another woman. Is this how you keep your promises?"

    Luke''s once confident expression was gone. Luke now appeared uncertain as he gazed at Neal. "If the pregnancy has been stabilized, then why did she miscarry?"


    "Well. I think you should ask your lovely sister. During those days, Chloe followed the doctor''s orders and stayed in bed, trying to stabilize the pregnancy. Even when she felt sick and could barely eat, she still forced herself. She didn''t flinch when she had to take injections to support the pregnancy. She did everything she could to keep the child, but as soon as your precious sister showed up, she miscarried."


    Luke still believed in Anna. He instinctively defended her, "No, there must be some misunderstanding. Anna is so kind. She would never hurt Chloe, especially since Chloe is her own sister."


    Neal''s expression matched the cold smile that spread across my lips whenever I waspared to Anna..


    He didn''t listen to the full story before condemning me, yet he always instinctively defended Anna.


    The weight I held in his eyes was obvious.


    Neal grossed his arms and said, "If you think she has nothing to do with it, then I have nothing more to


    say?


    Luke made a phone call and quickly obtained the hospital''s surveince footage from that day.


    There was no footage of the hospital room, but they could see Anna entering it. Not long after, I was seen. crawling out of the room, with arge pool of blood beneath me. There was one other figure in the footage-Carter.


    I only remembered seeing a pair of tailor-made men''s shoes beside me before I lost consciousness. After watching the footage, I saw Carter''s face, and it looked terrifying.


    Luke held the mouse tightly. His eyes glued to the screen as he reyed the moment I crawled down the hallway. He watched it for a long time, the look in his eyes unreadable. I couldn''t tell what he was thinking -regret, frustration, or maybe a hint of sympathy? He gripped the mouse tight. His voice trembling. "She must have been terrified during the surgery, right?"


    "The procedure was quick. My colleague is a professional, and the abortion process went smoothly-Your don''t need to worry about it. The pain didn''tst long, but... Neal stared at Luke. "How long do you think the pain in your heart willst?"
