At this time, Emma’s throat has made a click. Her body is as cold as a stone. Her face is as white as a sheet of paper. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire thinks Emma will die at any time. She is scared. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Emma is dying. Bryce might think he’s overdoing it, so he lets go. Emma falls to the ground. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Emma coughs violently. She is really close to being killed by Bryce. She thinks Bryce is really scary. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Emma gets up and runs away. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Bryce’s face is still a little gloomy. He looks at Emma’s back and sneers scornfully. He turns to smile at Claire. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Bryce, I’m scared. If you kill her, you will be sentenced.” Claire looks at Bryce reproachfully. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Bryce sighs and claps Claire on the shoulder. “I can’t stand her bullying you all the time and saying that. I didn’t hold back. I’m sorry it worries you.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire says, “I know you care about me, but…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Bryce pats Claire on the head like they did when they were young and says, “I see. I’ll remember it next time.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire looks at Bryce’s warm smile and doesn’t blame him for his recklessness. After all, he is so impulsive because he cares too much about her. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Bryce touches Claire’s hair, but he doesn’t know what to say. Claire’s situation seems more complicated than he thinks. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
And Claire has been reticent about the reason why she insists on staying with Leo, which makes Bryce helpless and sighs again and again. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When they are speechless, Kate suddenly comes in from outside. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
They exchange greetings. Kate asks Claire so she tells her she is pregnant. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Kate is furious. She wants to fight Leo and kill him! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Just then, Emma runs to Leo in fear. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Leo smiles gently at Emma when he sees her. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But Emma puts her arms around his neck and says, “Leo, you need to to avenge me.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Leo holds Emma in his arms and gently asks, “what’s the matter, kitten?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I went to the hospital to visit Claire, but I saw Bryce. I came in just in time to see them holding hands and talking.” Emma has tears in her eyes. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Leo says coldly, “What? What did they do to you?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Emma cries and says, “when they saw me, Bryce came and pinched my neck. I was almost killed by him!” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Emma leans against Leo’s chest but she smiles smugly. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
With that, calm Leo is furious again. Even Emma can feel how angry Leo is this time. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
… <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire is awakened by a loud noise. Leo breaks in. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Leo pulls Claire out of the quilt. Claire has five red fingerprints on her soft wrists. She is in a terrible pain. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire glares at Leo and shouts, “Leo, you bastard. What are you going to do to me?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
She has been holding back, but this moment she breaks out. She forgets the fate of her father and the baby in her stomach. She roars. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Leo stares at her indifferently and says, “what do I want to do? My wife was cheating. Claire, isn’t Bryce abroad? Tell me why he’s here and so close to you.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire knows it must be Emma’s revenge. She told Leo she saw her and Bryce. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But Claire has no courage in front of Leo. Because she’s not even sure who her baby’s father is. Her father’s fate is also under Leo’s control. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire restrains her disgust and anger at Leo. She just smiles bitterly and says, “why keep pestering him? I am hurt and he just comes to see me. It’s simple. What do you want to hear?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Leo approaches Claire and says, “it’s not what I want to hear, it’s what you did. Now it seems that the baby must be Bryce’s.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire’s eyes widen in horror. She didn’t expect Leo to say that all of a sudden. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“No matter who the father is, he can’t be Bryce. He and I haven’t done what you think.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Oh? Then tell me who the father of this baby is?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I…” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Are you going to give birth to Bryce’s baby in the name of my wife?” Leo is finally furious again. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire feels almost dragged out of the room. Leo drags her straight to the obstetrics and gynecology department! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire is close to the wall. She must not let her children be killed. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
At this time, the obstetrics and gynecology department becomes a mess because of Leo. Even a woman who has just had a baby screams with fright. The doctors stand in front of Leo, but no one dares to let Leo out. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Mr. Howard, you’re embarrassing us. After all, the operation needs to be registered in line.” A doctor with a mask says vaguely. He wants to push him out with his hands. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But Leo doesn’t move. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Mr. Howard, since this young lady doesn’t want to have an abortion, why do you force her? He is a life.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The doctors can’t touch Leo so they have to persuade him. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Claire looks at them and feels warm. But there is no hope in her heart. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Leo has always been a bully and he’s furious now. It is impossible for him to give up his plan because of the persuasion of several unimportant doctors. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Sure enough, Leo looks at the doctors with a sneer. He says coldly, “are you finished? If so, operate on her and kill the baby in the slut’s stomach.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Leo points to Claire. His fingers are like a cold sword and make her shiver involuntarily. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The doctors look at each other, but no one is going to operate. One of the directors says, “Mr. Howard, it’s against the rules of the hospital. We have to get her consent. You break the rules of the hospital.” <\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
