When I regained consciousness, I found myself lying on a hospital bed. The doctor told me that I was already one month pregnant, but due to the alcohol, the little life that had not yet been born had quietly left me. I stared at the ceiling with empty eyes, and a tear fell from the corner of my eye. I once wanted to have a child of my own, but River always told me that having a child was no different from getting married and that he didn't want to be bound, so I buried this desire deep in my heart.

I had no choice but to suppress this desire in my heart. I never thought that I had my own child for a short time, but now, he quietly left my body. Perhaps the baby himself also felt that his father did not welcome his arrival. I gently stroked my flat belly, trying to suppress the surging tears. It was better to lose the child, because I would be completely separated from River in five days. Having a child would only make the entanglement between us more complicated.

At this time, River opened the door of the ward, saw me wake up, and quickly held my hand. "Evelyn, how do you feel now?" he asked with concern.
