Her pregnancy had already been unstable and this incident had triggered violent contractions.
Julie clenched her fists tightly and pushed her friends away.Her voice shook as she said,“I have something to do.I’m leaving first.”
She fought back tears and rushed forward,ready to demand an explanation,but was hit by a sudden car and suffered massive bleeding.
In the hospital,doctors repeatedly issued critical condition notices.Julie called Tom 99 times,but only on the 100th call did he answer.
His irritated voice came through the line,"Julie,I'm working outside.I'm busy.Stop calling me!”
Tom hung up without hesitation.But in the final second,she still heard the sounds of a man and woman gasping in passion.
Julie stared at the ceiling,as tears fell in despair.
It turned out that his so-called busyness was cheating with other women.
In the early years of their relationship,even a minor cut on her finger would send him into a panic.
But now,only after a small amount of time,a hundred calls couldn’t even stir the slightest ripple in his heart.Indeed,promises only mattered when love was there.
The doctors exchanged glances,sighed and said sympathetically,"Miss Coleman,your condition is extremely serious.You must have surgery immediately,or your life is in danger.”
Julie bit her lip,protecting the child in her belly.Her eyes reddened when she said to the doctor,“I don’t have a husband.I’ll sign the consent myself!”
Tom,from the moment you cheated on me,you're out of my life.
After the surgery,the baby was saved,but Julie stayed in the hospital for a week.
For that entire week,Tom never once called her.
When she finally turned on her phone,it was flooded with messages after messages from Stacey,filled with receipts and bills.
For that entire week,Tom had stayed at the hotel across from the hospital.In just seven days,he’d gone through seven boxes of Durex and various adult toys...
Julie numbly clenched the bedsheet and her nails dug into her palms until the white fabric stained crimson as her heart died little by little.
No wonder Tom had hardly touched her for nearly a year—it wasn’t because he was busy,but because he had found someone better outside.
With trembling hands,Julie deleted Stacy's WhatsApp messages and got up to pack her things.
Just as she prepared to leave the hospital,Stacy arrived.Somehow,she had learned of her whereabouts.
