Chapter 505
\nMy Sweetheart novel Chapter 505<\/p>\n
Kathy and Alexia arrived at the hospital room; Sue was awake already, but Lincoln didn\u2019t enter.<\/p>\n
Looking at the feeble woman on the hospital bed, Kathy recalled how, just a while ago, they were still happily expecting to greet a new baby. No one foresaw that the baby was gone before they knew it.<\/p>\n
\u201cSue, the doctor said that you probably had abortion pills.\u201d Alexia hesitantly said.<\/p>\n
Sue\u2019s face turned pale white; she pressed her hand against her stomach and remained silent.<\/p>\n
How could she be so cruel to have taken her own child\u2019s life.<\/p>\n
Unless\u2026 it was something she ate in her daily meals.<\/p>\n
\u201cFar too many people want my child dead.\u201d Sue said solemnly as she shut her eyes.<\/p>\n
What she didn\u2019t say was how frightened she became ever since she was pregnant with her child.<\/p>\n
The Fletcher family\u2019s old man had many devious methods, and had tried to take her child\u2019s life innumerous times already.<\/p>\n
Sue was surprised she was even able to remain pregnant for four months.<\/p>\n
\u201cSue\u2026\u201d Kathy whispered, but then fell silent for a while.<\/p>\n
On the surface, Lincoln and Sue looked like quite a lovely couple; even the Fletcher family seemed to have accepted them. But in reality, things may not be this way.<\/p>\n
At this moment, footsteps sounded from outside the room; it was Lincoln, and both Kathy and Alexia left the room to give them a private moment.<\/p>\n
Sue kept looking down, her eyes were filled with a look of gloom.<\/p>\n
Then her eyes turned red, but she bit her lip and held in her tears.<\/p>\n
\u201cSue, sorry\u2026\u201d Lincoln said, then he knelt down next to her bed.<\/p>\n
He held her small hand tightly; she could clearly feel his anguish and pain.<\/p>\n
\u201cLincoln, is this our fate?” Sue suddenly asked with a smile.<\/p>\n
But as her smile widened, tears began to roll down her face.<\/p>\n
Lincoln rushed over to gently kiss away the tears off her face.<\/p>\n
However, Sue began to cry out even more uncontrollably; she held Lincoln tightly and said, \u201cI want to get revenge for my child.\u201d<\/p>\n
…<\/p>\n
Kathy was worried about Sue, so she kept waiting outside.<\/p>\n
Late in the night, Lincoln finally came out as Sue finally fell asleep. A deep sense of fatigue clearly showed on his face.<\/p>\n
“You should head home, it’s quite late.”<\/p>\n
Joseph was with Kathy; he held her gently and looked over to Lincoln, \u201cIf there\u2019s anything you want my help with, just ask.\u201d<\/p>\n
As they left the hospital, Kathy still felt distraught.<\/p>\n
On the way to the hospital, Sue kept trying to protect her child; but in the end, nothing had changed.<\/p>\n
\u201cJoseph, who do you think murdered Sue\u2019s child?\u201d In the car, Kathy looked over to the man next to her.<\/p>\n
\u201cSomeone from the Fletcher\u2019s.\u201d Joseph said as his eyebrows converged.<\/p>\n
This child arrived at the wrong time.<\/p>\n
Sue\u2019s position in the Fletcher\u2019s family was still unstable; there was no way the Fletcher\u2019s would stand by to watch her give birth to a child that would take a share of the family inheritance.<\/p>\n
But the couple was too immersed in the pregnancy that they overlooked some considerations.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut\u2026 Sue\u2019s child is the flesh and blood of the Fletcher family!\u201d Kathy lashed out.<\/p>\n
It was a life; a living, breathing life!<\/p>\n
How could the Fletchers be so cruel!<\/p>\n
Joseph placed a hand over to her, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Fletchers have always been a dog-eat-dog family.\u201d Joseph calmly said.<\/p>\n
He has known Lincoln for years, so he had quite some insights into that family.<\/p>\n
However, he never wanted Lincoln to return to that family.<\/p>\n
Kathy stayed with Sue until late in the evening. Due to school matters, she had to stop by Jennifer\u2019s place, but Joseph already arrived to pick her up.<\/p>\n
Joseph heard that Kathy was going to Jennifer\u2019s place, and he didn\u2019t say anything.<\/p>\n
She could tell that Joseph has been quite busy with work lately. Sometimes, he was still working in his study late in the night. Even when Kathy hit the bed, he was still working.<\/p>\n
She knew that he recently resumed his post in the hospital, and he was in charge of Ella\u2019s treatment. Between his family business and hospital job, Joseph barely had any time to rest. Kathy felt distressed for him.<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter Ella\u2019s treatment, will you have more free time?\u201d Kathy asked concernedly.<\/p>\n
Joseph rubbed her forehead lovingly and said, \u201cYes.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIs her operation difficult?\u201d<\/p>\n
Currently, only Joseph has had experience with this kind of operation.<\/p>\n
\u201cHm, it\u2019s a bit complicated.\u201d<\/p>\n
If Joseph even said it was a tough procedure, then Kathy knew it was.<\/p>\n
\u201cHope it all goes well,\u201d Kathy said under her breath.<\/p>\n
Otherwise, Ella would spend even more with Joseph in the future.<\/p>\n
Kathy didn\u2019t like that idea.<\/p>\n
Kathy planned to stay the night at Jennifer\u2019s place, and asked Joseph to head home.<\/p>\n
He wasn\u2019t keen with that idea, so he entered with Kathy.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf you\u2019re going to stay the night here, I will too.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kathy puckered her lips; it seemed like a fine suggestion too.<\/p>\n
Besides, Jennifer now had a good impression of Joseph, and no one else lived there.<\/p>\n
\u201cPearl, Joseph\u2019s here too; bring over an extra cup of tea.\u201d Jennifer ordered.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1171","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/1171","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1171"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
