The nurses said in embarrassment.
"Madam, all the doctors in the city have been called to the riverside villa by the president. Miss Scarlett broke her finger a little when she was drawing blood, and Sterling is always worried that she might have an accident, so he asked all the doctors to be on standby."
"Right now, there are no doctors in the entire city... "
The mother-in-law was so angry that she kept calling: "This is crazy. He begged his wife to marry him and now she is bleeding heavily during childbirth, but he called away all the doctors for a mistress and didn't care about his wife's life or death!"
When the tenth call came, Lucas finally answered the phone and asked impatiently what my mother-in-law was doing, asking if I was being unreasonable and asking her for support again.
The mother-in-law shouted excitedly: "Eleanor has been bleeding heavily and has fallen into a coma! The baby in her belly is lacking oxygen! You even took her doctor away. Do you want to kill your wife and child?"
Lucas sneered: "Did Eleanor ask you to call me? She gave birth to her baby yesterday. Why is she pretending to be in critical condition now?"
"Alright, alright, I still need to take birth photos for Scarlett and her son. Doesn't she want a doctor? I'll just send someone."
My mother-in-law hung up the phone and held my hand tightly.
"Don't be afraid, Eleanor, the doctor will be here soon."
I held my belly tightly, feeling the life inside it gradually fading away.
Thinking back to my last life, my child was also sewn to death in my stomach by Lucas, suffocating to death.
I was trembling all over, holding my mother-in-law's hand, and said with difficulty.
"Mother-in-law, three years ago, my father fell into a coma while trying to save Lucas. You promised me that you would treat me as your own daughter. If Lucas treated me badly, you would help me divorce Lucas."
"I beg you to let me divorce him. I will never stand in his way of letting the son of his beloved woman take his place. I just want my children to be born safely."
The mother-in-law was already in tears, and kept talking.
"Although I wanted to repay your father for saving my life, I only said that I wanted to adopt you as my goddaughter. It was Lucas who confessed his love to you and proposed to you. He loves you so much, how come it has turned out like this? It's all because of that bitch Scarlett. If she hadn't suddenly appeared, you wouldn't be like this now."
I smiled miserably. Yes, how could my childhood sweetheart’s first love turn out like this?
The man who said at the coming-of-age ceremony that he would love me forever and that if he betrayed me, he would be cut into pieces and die a miserable death.
Now, for another woman, I am being chopped into pieces.
"Please, Mrs. Sterling." I gritted my teeth and said each word.
Listening to my weak pleading, my mother-in-law finally nodded.
"Okay! When you got married, I asked him to sign a divorce agreement with you, so that if there is a rift between you one day, I can help you get out. Now I will go back and get it for expedited processing!"
"Tomorrow, I will declare that you are my only heir. As for this ungrateful son, I will no longer recognize him!"
My mother-in-law left immediately to deal with the matter.
I lay on the hospital bed, the pain in my abdomen was like a tide, and I cried out.
The assistant left by my mother-in-law was anxiously waiting for the doctor sent by Lucas to arrive.
Finally, someone came.
But the person who came was not a doctor, but a courier boy.
Seeing the blood in the delivery room, he helplessly handed over the bag, and a sanitary napkin and a band-aid fell out of the bag.
"Sterling always said that it's just postpartum lochia, it won't kill you, just wipe it off yourself, don't disgust him with this kind of thing anymore."
