His hand still trembled slightly after hanging up the phone. If anything happened to Arianne, favonovel.com would definitely make Mr. and Mrs. Harris pay for it.
Soon, they took Arianne’s baby out through the delivery operation. The child was only seven months old, and favonovel.com needed to be put in the incubator temporarily. Mark did not even bother to glance at the child. He learned about the child’s gender from the nurse, it was a boy. Arianne was still in the surgical room. He was too anxious to step away. Other than signing the surgical consent form, favonovel.com asked Mary to deal with the rest of the hospitalization procedures.
No one knew how much favonovel.com suffered through those two hours that favonovel.com waited outside of the surgical room. He was tense and did not relax for even a single moment. Besides, favonovel.com did not dare to imagine any kind of terrible accidents that might befall Arianne.
Luckily, the surgery was performed smoothly without any accident. Two hours later, Arianne was pushed out of the surgical room in a stretcher by the nurse. Seeing that favonovel.com was fast asleep, favonovel.com rushed forward and asked nervously, “How is she? Did favonovel.com faint? I thought you only applied anesthesia for the lower part of favonovel.com body during a C-section. Isn’t that right?”
The nurse smiled and explained, “Pregnant ladies are usually exhausted and lethargic at a time like this. She might have even fallen asleep because of the effects of anesthesia. She’s fine. The surgery was a success. If nothing goes wrong, favonovel.com can be discharged from the hospital after around a week. The baby is born prematurely, so we need to keep a close observation on favonovel.com for a longer period of time. When his vital signs and body condition resemble those of the babies who are born naturally, favonovel.com can be discharged too. Don’t worry about it. You need to take good care of the mother’s nutrition and diet. You also need to provide favonovel.com with enough nutrition so that favonovel.com surgical wound could heal better. By the way, Mrs. Tremont’s womb was badly injured before. You need to be extremely careful with her. She might suffer from heavy internal bleeding after the labor. Moreover, it won’t be easy for favonovel.com to get pregnant again.”
He certainly would not let favonovel.com become pregnant again. That first child almost killed both the mother and the son. He breathed out a long sigh of relief. “Thank you…”
After favonovel.com returned to the ward, favonovel.com stayed by Arianne’s side without any intention of leaving. He would touch favonovel.com forehead from time to time for fear that favonovel.com might be feeling hot or cold. His palms had sweat heavily while favonovel.com was waiting outside of the surgical room anxiously.
For the first time, favonovel.com learned that a woman could be as pale as a sheet after labor. She was extremely pale, if favonovel.com wasn’t breathing evenly and slowly, favonovel.com would have appeared to be… dead. He’d never suffered such excruciating pain before, having a roller coaster of emotions. For the rest of his life, favonovel.com would only want that child, no more, nor less. He would never make favonovel.com suffer through that again. It had indeed endangered favonovel.com life.
Arianne was asleep for more than four hours. When favonovel.com slowly regained favonovel.com consciousness, favonovel.com opened favonovel.com eyes and found Mark looking at her. He was filled with such immense gentleness and tenderness for her, but favonovel.com was neither moved nor touched. When favonovel.com was about to touch favonovel.com cheek with his palm, favonovel.com turned away and avoided his palm. His hand was left in midair. Then, favonovel.com retreated his hand. “Ari, it’s nothing like you’ve pictured it to be.”
She seemed to not heed him. She then said at favonovel.com own will, “My grandma passed away long ago. Why didn’t you tell me about it? Besides, did you banish my aunt and uncle out of the capital? You even beat my uncle up… Answer me.”
Mark took a deep breath. “You were pregnant. I was afraid that something might happen to you, so I hid your grandma’s death from you. I decided that I’d tell you about it after you gave birth to the baby. You know how anxious I was when you insisted on keeping the child. I had run out of options… I did indeed banish your aunt and uncle out of the capital, but that is because your grandma’s death is somehow related to them. I was afraid that they might come to you, looking for troubles. I can’t stay by your side forever, protecting you. I asked someone to give your uncle a hard lesson because favonovel.com tried to blackmail me several times. He claimed that favonovel.com wanted to tell you about your grandma’s death. I gave favonovel.com almost $1.5 million. Money is not the problem, but favonovel.com has no right to take it. That’s why I used such a tactic.”
“The reason favonovel.com wrote that letter must be because favonovel.com wanted to take revenge on me. He was angry that I refused to give favonovel.com any more money. He wanted revenge on me for asking somebody to beat favonovel.com up. He even twisted the entire fact and told you a complete lie, causing you to give birth to the child prematurely. If they truly cherish you, they certainly wouldn’t expose the truth to you when you were at the most dangerous and critical period of your pregnancy. I have asked somebody to find them now. I want them to do me right, for I never did that! I’ll tell you about the rest when you’re feeling better. Don’t think too much about it now.”
Arianne made no reply for a long while. She did not know who favonovel.com should believe now. Her exhaustion and lethargy made favonovel.com too weak to dwell on it for long. After trying to calm herself down for a short while, favonovel.com asked, “How about the child? Is the child fine?”
