“Am I dead?” In the quiet ward, Jane\'s eyelashes moved slightly and opened slowly. The pale ceiling greeted her with a faint fragrance of flowers in the air. “This is a VIP ward.” Jane turns her head and sees that she is lying on a soft bed, the straps on her wrist are gone, and the worn areas are covered with gauze. “Didn\'t he want my life, why did he save-” Squeak. The door pushes open and a tall figure walks in facing the sunlight. Jane\'s pupils shrink, she uses all her strength to prop up her body, and shouts hoarsely, \"Liam! You-\" \"Janie!\" She interrupts her. \"Mom?\" Jane could hardly believe her eyes and even forgets to breathe. Her heart is happy but her throat is choking. Just behind Liam, a nurse walks in pushing a wheelchair, and the thin woman sits happily. Her mother is alive. Liam took the wheelchair and politely motioned the nurse to leave. \"Mom, you’re n
She burst into tears, her heart hurting like it was about to split. The oily soup ran across the ground, mixed with overturned vegetables and tofu. Jane grabs them one by one, picking off the shards of broken plate. She fills her mouth and swallows abruptly. Blaaarghchk. A strong pregnancy symptom, Jane couldn\'t control her retching. She covers her mouth, she couldn\'t tell whether it was soup or tears but she forces herself to swallow. She can\'t vomit otherwise her mother will have to continue to be hungry until dawn. Jane kneels on the floor, dripping with oil from her chin, ashamed and sick. Liam looks indifferently, showing no mercy but a hint of revenge in his eyes. He will no longer have any sympathy for this woman. \"Wow. Nothing is left, I hope your mother will do the same.\" He says coldly. He turns and walks out of the room. ... \"Miss Jiang, your meal is-\"
Liam stares at the woman standing in the window, he looks at her up and down. The wind blows up her skirt, seeming to be blown away at any time. He remembers a time when he would run his fingers up her delicate legs. There are wisps of pain deep in Liam’s heart. Once, he treated her like a treasure, unwilling to hurt her even for a bit. But now, he only feels the extreme opposite. He gave up everything for her but she left before getting married and went with another rich man. He will never love this woman again. \"Liam, please let my mother go...\" \"Janie, I will never let your mother die,\" he gives out a demented smile. Her eyes lit, \"You’ll save my mother?\" \"Yes.\" He smiles and means the word, \"If you kill yourself, I will save your mother. I will make sure that she does not die. I will extend her life and cure her heart disease. Once she is cured, I’ll have her medically dissected. The knowledge that we can obtain from
Jane could not speak and her body trembles even more. She wanted to go on a hunger strike to protest, but Quinn volunteers to feed her, and privately tortures her in this way, twice a day. \"Janie, do you know why I hate you so much?\" Quinn sits beside her sister and slaps the nurse in the shoulder to go away. \"You and I are both daughters of the Jiang family but we have different destinies. Why are you the eldest lady of the Jiang family and I am the illegitimate daughter?\" Quinn\'s eyes showing strong resentment. Cough! The tube in Jane’s mouth tears off and her throat is sore. Quinn laughs, \"You won\'t be proud of it for long since you have a terminal illness. Your lucky to live an extra day.\" \"Terminal illness?\" Jane froze, her broken eyes stares at Quinn in confusion. \"You think I’m lying?\" she sneers at her and throws the torn medical record in front of her piece by piece. She took care of
Weeks later. Maria\'s wheelchair pushes forward to the ward but a figure suddenly blocks the way. \"How are you, Auntie?\" Quinn Liu is wearing a loose pregnant woman\'s skirt, caressing her belly and smiling. \"Wicked woman!\" Seeing that it was her, Maria immediately said, \"You\'ve ruined my daughter\'s wedding and cheated my son-in-law! When my daughter births, I\'ll tell Liam the truth! \" \"Auntie, your daughter is already dying of cancer. Why is your mood so negative?\" Quinn giggles. \"Cancer?\" Maria’s face turns white, \"What are you talking about?\" Maria scolds Quinn. \"Hm? Didn\'t sister tell you?\" Quinn pretended to be surprised, \"She has bone cancer. She only has a month at most.\" Maria’s chest and arms felt heavy and lifeless, as if she was struck by lightning, she grips her chest in a dizzying whirl. \"Miss Liu, the patient has a serious heart condition and can\'t be stimulated.\" The nurse st
Jane could hardly believe her ears, her insides are frozen, and her mind is drowning. “Am I a bad person? What could have I done to deserve such evil?” Her child will be born soon. \"Quinn injured her body during the last miscarriage, so she couldn\'t get pregnant again.\" Liam\'s bottomless eyes were bleak, \"Quinn sees this pregnancy as more precious than anything in her eyes. I didn\'t expect your mother to instigate a situation with her and let her miscarry again.\" Jane leans on the wall hard and the pain in her chest welled up like a tide. She folds her arms to cover her belly, as if in a dream, \"So, you are going to kill my child?\" Liam clenches his fist and releases. \"It was you who killed your mother, this wicked breed of yours...\" Out of her disheveled hair and snot-covered face, her sharp eyes gaze up to him. Liam stopped breathing, their eyes meeting with no words spoken. For a moment, there was but hesita
\"Crash cart!\" Liam barks. The room scuffles about as if Jane was the sickest patient in the entire institution. Zchangnk! The defibrillator presses against Jane’s lifeless body and zaps her, jangling her limbs uncontrollably. “No response.” \"Again!\" Liam roars thru his surgical mask. “Nothing.” \"President Chu, the patient has lost a lot of blood. And she has advanced bone cancer, she has been refusing anesthetics for the past months” “ …the body has reached it’s limit.\" \"Bone cancer?\" He stares at Jane\'s pale face and murmurs confusion. Liam’s face is distorted underneath all his clothing. His chest suddenly feels a sharp pain. Just now he heard her shout and cry about bone cancer, but he thought it was just her lying again, trying to rouse his sympathy by making up an incurable disease. “Bone cancer?” “Bone cancer? Its impossible! I’m her doctor. I wouldn’t have missed such a
Quinn\'s dissatisfied voice came. \"Don\'t you collect so much money from me? Why don\'t you know how to solve problems? This time, I pretended to have a miscarriage and you helped me falsify the medical records. Next, I pretended to be pregnant, and you help me falsify it. Just to the same thing when the time comes.\" \"This...\" The doctor is shocked, \"Miss Liu, this is a matter of having a child, your stomach can\'t take it anymore.\" \"It\'s okay. I will tell Liam when he arrives that I\'m going abroad to have a baby. He will be so busy in this hospital that he won\'t be with me so often.\" Quinn\'s usual voice seems proud of herself, \"When the time comes, when Liam is away, I’ll just pick a baby somewhere and say that I have given birth.\" Liam stood outside staring blankly at the white door with utter rage brewing between his heart and his stomach. His heart felt like a ball of broken glass forcefully stuffed inside his ribcage. Hi
