Ethan rushed forward to hug me, but I clenched my teeth and slapped him hard.
“Ethan, you don’t deserve to be this child’s father. Let’s get a divorce.”
I couldn’t stop shaking, my voice trembling with emotion.
“That Sabrina, you got drunk for three days over her, even ending up with a stomach hemorrhage, and she still abandoned you and fled abroad.”
“Now she’s back, so you can’t wait to rekindle everything—movies with her, doctor visits with her, then having her child, making me watch the three of you act sweet right in front of me like I’m a fool.”
“I didn’t mean to lie to you!”
Ethan rushed over and knelt with a heavy thud, slapping himself repeatedly.
“Hannah, I can explain. Don’t be upset, it’s bad for the baby.”
“I just drank too much. That day, you went to the hospital, and she came in. I thought, I thought…”
I let out a bitter laugh.
That day, while I endured the agony of egg retrieval at the hospital—bleeding and confined to bed—he was passionately trying to conceive with his first love.
I forced back my tears and said with sorrow,
“I don’t want this child. I’ll fulfill your wish.” Ethan’s pupils widened sharply, staring at me in shock. Then, he glanced at the fruit knife on the coffee table, grabbed it, and plunged it into his arm with a dull thud.
“Hannah, let me make it up to you, okay?”
“Keep the child. I don’t want a divorce.”
Before I could respond, a slim figure rushed over, clutching his wound.
“Ethan, how could you be so reckless!”
She yanked my hair and violently shoved me aside.
“Hannah Sterling, you’re so heartless. No wonder you can’t have children.”
With a crash, I slammed onto the coffee table, pain shooting through my spine like it was snapping.
Sabrina, pulled by momentum, stumbled and fell into Ethan.
As she frowned and held her stomach, Ethan panicked, sweeping her into his arms.
“Sabrina, where does it hurt? I’ll take you to the hospital right now.”
With that, he bolted toward the door, turning back anxiously once he stepped outside.
“Hannah, it’s not what you think. Stay calm, I’ll explain everything later.”
I tried to call after him, but a sharp pain seized my abdomen, and warm fluid streamed down my thighs.
Actually…
I really wanted this child. I said it only in anger; I never intended to give him up.
But he got upset, and he is leaving me.
Tears fell uncontrollably.
Through my blurred vision, Ethan carried Sabrina away, not once looking back at me.
