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.
" I didn't know you were pregnant. I didn't mean to do that. I just wanted you to accept Ivy 's apology." He defended himself.
Listening to his defense, I felt unusually calm. Originally, I planned to keep it a secret from him in the last week, and then leave quietly on the last day. Once I'm abroad, I can completely cut off contact with him. Even if he wants to find me, he won't know where I've gone. But now, I've changed my mind. I don't want to spend another minute with him. Seeing his hypocritical face only makes me feel sick.
I pulled my hand back and said coldly, "River, let's break up."
River looked at me in disbelief. "Is it just because of this child?" he asked.
" He was an accident. You know, I didn't plan to have a child at all." River simply thought that I wanted to break up with him just because of the miscarriage. I'm afraid that until now, he has not realized how excessive his actions were.
River wanted to say something, but at this moment, Ivy came in from the door, with her legs wrapped in gauze of different sizes. "River, the doctor said that some wounds need to be treated well, otherwise they will leave scars in the future." She looked at River with tears in her eyes, as if she was about to cry in the next second. However , River was no longer as gentle as before to her at this moment, and his voice unconsciously rose and scolded: "Didn't you see that Evelyn had a miscarriage! Your leg is just a scar, not an amputation. Besides, even if you need to amputate, you should go to the doctor, it's useless to go to me!"
Ivy obviously had never seen River so angry before, and ran out with red eyes. I raised my chin towards the door, "Why don't you chase her and coax her? Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll have to buy her another diamond ring or a necklace to calm her down."
River's body froze, and he managed to pull the corners of his mouth, " Evelyn , what nonsense are you talking about? Those are just rewards from me as a boss to my employees. I really have nothing with her." After that, he took out his phone, opened the chat history between him and Ivy, and showed it to me, "You see, she and I only talked about work."
Seeing his attempt to cover up his crime, I just wanted to laugh. Did he really think I was still the same fool who was willing to deceive myself?
